It's that time of year...spring is coming and that means sniffles, sneezes and allergens. Please donate a box of tissues to help keep our students healthy and clean! Drop off to the bins out front, to the main office or your child's first period class.

We're excited to announce an opportunity for special education parents to connect, share experiences, and offer valuable input. We believe that your voices are essential in shaping the best possible educational environment for our children.

This is an informal gathering – a chance for us to come together as a community and support one another. Whether you have specific concerns you'd like to discuss, suggestions for improvement, or simply want to connect with other parents who understand the unique journey of special education, we encourage you to attend.

The Next Meeting is THIS WEDNESDAY, March 12 in the MMS Library. 

Just show up – no need to RSVP! We understand that schedules can be hectic, so please join us whenever you're able. We look forward to seeing you there and working together to create a positive and supportive environment for our children.

Warmly,

Amanda Harris & Stacey Schultz, MMS SEPAC Liaisons
