Welcome to the Franklin Special Education Parent Advisory Council,
The
mission of the Franklin SEPAC is to promote a network for parents of
children with disabilities and provide a forum to share information and
discuss matters of relative interest and concern regarding our children.
This group provides regular forums for Pupil Personnel Services and parents
to share information and discuss pertinent issues; develops, maintains and
shares tools and a resource guide; and raises awareness of children with
special needs.
Massachusetts state law requires each school district to create a
district-wide parent advisory council (PAC) offering memberships to all
parents and guardians of students receiving special services and other
interested parties. The current representation of the parents on the
SEPAC encompasses a limited scope of disabilities, special needs and
schools, and we seek to ensure that a wide representation of Franklin is
included in the initiatives of the SEPAC.
Your participation will
provide a unique opportunity to meet school officials and other parents,
stay informed on policy and legislative changes, ask questions and discuss
concerns, and learn something new. Your input into potential speaker topics,
and other SEPAC initiatives of particular interest is also welcomed.
IMPORTANT:
Franklin schools have gone
GREEN, so information about our events
will no longer be going home with your children. Please take the time
to join our
email newsletter at:
FranklinSEPAC@gmail.com.

Parent Support Programs
Please join us for our
the informal Parent to Parent Meetings. These laid back, support
programs are held once a month or as needed
through the school year. We conduct the meetings at a local coffee shop such
as Panera's in Franklin in the morning. We are also willing to conduct them
in the evening based on the need. It is our hope that these meetings will
provide a comfortable setting for Parents/Guardians to share, learn and
exchange information. We feel this will prove beneficial not only to our
children with disabilities, but to our families, educators and all students
in the community. If you have questions or concerns about special education
and your child and you are not sure where to start, feel free to join us. If
you have been trying to navigate the system on your own and just need some
support, we are here!
Next Dates:
Fall dates will be listed
soon...
