SEPTA
|
|
The Somers Special Education PTA (SEPTA) is
a network of parents, educators and interested parties who recognize and
support challenges in parenting and educating children with different
learning styles. SEPTA is a district-wide PTA which
supports all four schools, pre-schools and community members.
SEPTA is a unit of the Somers PTA Council. |
|
|
SEPTA's goal is to serve as a
resource for parents and faculty, as well as offer support for special
education children. Special education includes gifted & talented
students, students with a disability and twice exceptional
students (gifted students who also have a disability). We
strive to create a community that values and respects each student's
learning abilities and to ensure that all children receive an education
that allows them to reach their full potential.

SEPTA's events are beneficial
to ALL Somers families. Popular speakers have included
Joel Haber, the Bullying Coach; Rachel's Challenge; Sheryl Frishman,
parent advocate and President ARC; and Dr. Aleta Koman, parenting
expert, author and NBC parenting correspondent. |
