Welcome to the Waltham
Special Education PAC
Mission Statement
We are a cross-functional team comprised of parents, educators and school administrators.
The group’s function is to inform and empower parents whose children have special education needs. The group meets once a month to discuss educational needs, identify resources and design programs. Membership is open to individuals who have a vested interest in special education in the city of Waltham.
This workshop provides families with an introduction
to their rights and responsibilities under the
Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), Massachusetts Special Education Law and
No Child Left Behind (NCLB). It is designed to
help parents learn how to be effective partners
with their child’s school to decide the child’s
eligibility for special education, and to plan, make
decisions and monitor their child’s progress in school.
Any educator that works directly with students in Special Education may make requests for their classroom. Items are presented at our annual reception in May.
