Welcome to Reading SEPAC

Welcome to the Reading Special Education Parent Advisory Council (SEPAC). We are a group of parents who foster a community in Reading for children with an array of special needs and their caregivers, and who help advise the Reading Massachusetts School district on children with disabilities.

Here you will find many resources to help you as a parent or caregiver of a child with special needs, along with details on upcoming social gatherings, informational meetings and more. 

Please contact us at SEPACReading@gmail.com if you are interested in joining Reading SEPAC's e-mail list, would like to learn more, or have a question or concern.  You can also follow us on facebook at https://www.facebook.com/SEPAC.Reading/ and instagram at  https://www.instagram.com/ReadingSEPAC

Wachusett Mountain Meetup 

Monday, March 10th


Teacher Inservice is coming up on March 10 (Mon) where students have no school.  Why not grab the family and join us for an informal winter meetup at nearby Wachusett Mountain (About 1-hr drive from Reading).  You won't have to worry about finding a table for everyone to relax and eat after a day on the slopes.  We have taken care of reserving a private lounge just for Reading SEPAC to hang out.  Drop by anytime between 8:30-3pm.


Please note, no outside food or beverages can be consumed inside the lounge.  Use of the Wachusett Mountain lounge requires us to order from their catering menu for each attendee.  We kindly ask for a suggested donation of $20 per person to help chip in to offset a portion of the cost for the catered breakfast and lunch (we will fundraise for the rest).  An ala carte menu will also be available all day if you would like to order additional snacks, food, or beverages.  If you are experiencing financial hardship we still want you to come; just email us so we have an accurate headcount.


General parking is free and there are several handicap parking spaces available.  If you would like to guarantee parking in the upper lot, please pre-reserve a VIP parking space through Wachusett’s website (See Wachusett Visitor Guide).  Please note, all snow recreational sports, private or group lessons, VIP parking, upgraded menus, bar tabs, or other services & activities are at your own expense.  


Email Wachusett Mountain (adaptive@wachusett.com) if you are interested in learning more about their adaptive lessons and would like to schedule personalized sessions for your children.
