Needham SEPAC
We are parents and guardians of special education students
who provide information and support to each other. We meet regularly with school administrators to give input about the policies and programs that affect our children.
Input
We hold monthly meetings with NPS Special Education Directors to receive updates, discuss issues and provide feedback. These meetings are open to all members of the community.
We have ongoing communication with Special Education Directors and Building Coordinators to address parent questions and concerns.
Education
We organize educational programs
on topics of interest to parents such as: IEPs and team meetings, executive function, anxiety and mental health, neuropsychology, transition planning, and more.Our website has links to numerous resources
and is updated constantly.
