Acton-Boxborough Special Education Parent Advisory Council
- Welcome to our new and improved website! We have added lots of new information and resources. Hopefully it will be much easier to navigate.
- 2011 AB Sped PAC Parent/Guardian Survey Report – Here are the results from the Parent/Guardian Survey we conducted last year. There were some interesting findings and trends from the previous Parent Survey conducted in 2008. Check out the details in our new 2011 Survey Report. The 2008 Survey Report is also available on our website under the PAC Reports & Presentations header sub-category Parent/Guardian Surveys.
- AB SpEd PAC Special Education Parent Handbook – This handbook defines terminology, timelines and the different steps in the special education process from evaluation for services through IEP development and transition planning. It offers parent tips and resources and includes a list of the special education programs and services available in the Acton Public and Acton-Boxborough School districts. If you have questions about special education, this should be a very useful reference guide.
- Donate to support ABSpEdPAC programs and services. Please make checks payable to “Friends of ABSpEdPAC” and mail to Caroline Jarvis, Treasurer, 95 Hammond Street, Acton, MA 01720. To learn how your donation will help reference our recent letter.
- Email Lists: We have two email lists, one for news about upcoming events and activities, the other for confidential communication between parents of children with special needs.
- Calendar of Events – This calendar includes special education related presentations, meetings, and workshops in Acton, Boxborough and surrounding communities. To add an event, email the event name, date, time, description, contact information and/or link to nsherburne@mindspring.com. The calendar is updated about once a week, so get your events in early!
