Littleton SEPAC (Special Education Parent's Advisory Council)

Littleton Special Education Parent Advisory Council (SEPAC)

The Littleton SEPAC’s mission is to facilitate education, communication and
collaboration between students, parents, community members, administrators,
and the School Committee in order to establish better understanding of, respect
for, and support of Special Education, and to work with the Littleton School
District to ensure that students’ needs under Massachusetts Special Education
Regulations 603CMR28.07(4) and other applicable laws are being met.

What is a SEPAC?

The Littleton SEPAC is parent led and run, aiming to build a community of support for parents on the Special Education journey by having regular support groups, meetings, and workshops.

In addition to providing support and information to parents, the SEPAC has the following duty: 603 CMR 28:00(4): “The parent advisory council duties shall include but not be limited to: advising the district on matters that pertain to the education and safety of students with disabilities; meeting regularly with school officials to participate in the planning, development, and evaluation of the school district's special education programs.” Every district in MA must have a SEPAC or get a waiver from the state.

When do we meet?

We have four business meetings every year, a monthly parent support group, and we also host additional workshops.

How to get connected to your school's SEPAC and liaison?

Each school has one or more SEPAC liaisons who are there to provide support and information around special education or connect you to others who can help. Let us know how we can help you on the Special Education Journey! Become active! Join our meetings, volunteer, support other parents! You are your child's best advocate! We are here to support you.
