BELONGING COMMUNITY OPTIMISM GROWTH

Parent Advisory

 

Welcome to SEPAC

Ludlow Special Education Parent Advisory Council (SEPAC) facilitates understanding, respect and support for all children with special education needs in our community. The council helps to establish a network of parents/guardians of children with special education needs and creates safe place to share information and experiences. SEPAC meetings provide informational workshops to parents/guardians, educators, students and professionals and works to educate the wider community on special education. SEPAC relies on the active participation of parents/guardians to effectively represent the needs of their community and to make informed changes for the betterment of their community. If you would like to participate in SEPAC and share your experiences please join us for our next meeting.

 

Our Purpose

The purpose of SEPAC is to stimulate meaningful dialogue between the Ludlow school system and parents/guardians. The council works with the Director of Special Education to establish procedures related to the planning, development, and evaluation of the special education program. In addition to establishing a support network among parents/guardians the council also provides support to members of the community, training in special education and development of educational plans.
