The Andover Special Education Parent Advisory Council (SEPAC)

THE ANDOVER SPECIAL EDUCATION PAC NEEDS YOUR HELP
The Andover Special Education Parent Advisory Council (SEPAC) is a group of parents working together to promote the understanding, respect, support, and appropriate education for all children with special needs in our community. To this end, we have worked to provide education and resources to parents and families to help them support and educate their children within the Andover Public School System.  This work has resulted in the
following resources and opportunities for staff, families, and children:

1. Parent special education liaisons in each school to guide families as they navigate the special education system.
2. An annual newsletter highlighting the upcoming workshops, parent liaisons, website and resources available in the town.
3. Monthly educational workshops for parents and educators to learn about special education topics of interest.
4. Monthly parent information networking group, facilitated by a school social worker, to provide resources and support to parents.
5. Annual Mary French Awards night to recognize educators who have had a significant impact in the lives of special education students and families in Andover.

There is much work to be done and value in what we do, but WE NEED YOUR HELP to continue this mission.  If you have benefitted in some way from the work we do, believe in the mission we have set forth, and would consider giving a little time and energy to this cause, we would love your input and active participation as we move forward in our planning for the next school year.  We could use help in any and all of the following areas.


  - Newsletter Preparation and Distribution

  - Brochure Preparation and Distribution

  - Building Liaisons

  - Educational Workshop Coordinators

  - Mary French Award Committee, Coordination

Please email Cyndi Webber at webberbc@comcast.net  or Paula, West El's SEPAC liason at bkarl@comcast.net and let us know what you are interested in helping out with or participating in for next year.  Many hands make light work and we appreciate any help you can give to SEPAC at this time!
