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

SEPAC Annual Survey:

Please fill out this brief, anonymous survey to help your SEPAC Board to plan for the 2025-2026 school year. It should only take a few minutes.


This school year we brought speakers to the Reading community on important topics such as literacy success, executive functioning, social emotional learning, school avoidance, the IEP and the special education budget based in large part on what parents highlighted in the annual survey, so it’s very important to make sure your voice is heard. 


In addition, your voice helps to steer the conversation between our school leadership and the Reading SEPAC board in our scheduled monthly meetings during the school year.


We also want to hear from you on how we are doing in meeting our community’s needs and what more we can do to improve Reading SEPAC.


The survey results will be discussed at the next Reading SEPAC Business meeting on May 14th at 7PM.
