Parents, Students and Schools as Partners
Rights and Responsibilities in Special Education
This workshop is being conducted by the school district in cooperation with the local Parent Advisory Council (PAC). State special education law requires that at least once per year each school district conducts a workshop on the rights of students and their parents or guardians under the special education law of Massachusetts and under the federal special education law.  The Massachusetts Department of Education, in cooperation with a number of key parent and advocacy organizations, developed this presentation to meet this requirement.

Optional:   In our school district we also offer other training opportunities or other written information for parents and students regarding special education.   (Describe such additional opportunities.)
