SEPTA MEETINGS

Our meetings will start at 7:00 this year and once our business is complete our scheduled speaker will begin their presentation. Our March and April Meetings may start earlier, please look for this information on the flyer as we get closer to the meeting. We will then follow up each meeting with a Parent Support Group until 9:30 or so.

Come and share information with parents and staff about programs that have been beneficial to your child. If you have questions please come and speak to other parents who may have been through a similar situation and can help lead you in the right direction.

MEMBERSHIP

SEPTA membership is $10.00 per person.

Becoming a member of SEPTA is important. We hope to assist each other in becoming an educated, confident and comfortable participant in our children�s education. We will work to bring the relationship between home and school closer so that parents and teachers may cooperate effectively in the education of our children.

PARENT MEMBERS

We need parents to volunteer their time to be parent members. This is an important support system for us. There are training classes offered in the county through BOCES. These classes will help you help yourself and others. If you are would like to be a parent member, please contact Donna Baker 845-620-3939
