Special Education Parent Advisory Council (SEPAC)
Who We
Are:
The Rio Rancho SEPAC is made up of parents of children with
special needs and interested community members. Teachers
and administrators often attend meetings as well, and our
meetings are open to everyone. Parents of children with
special needs face many challenges. Foremost is a search
for effective programs and services to offer all children
the opportunity to be successful learners among their peers.
As part of this goal, we support and advocate for inclusion
of special needs students in the classroom.
2009-2010 Meeting Schedule
All meetings are at 4:30–6:30 pm, location is listed below. Snacks and Child Care are provided. Please call Lynda at 896-0667 x229 prior to meeting, if Child Care is needed.
