Welcome to the Concord Carlisle SEPAC Web site

(CCSEPAC) formerly known as Concord SPED PAC (Concord SpEdPAC)

What's New?

We are changing our name from the "Concord SPED PAC" to Concord Carlisle Special Education Parent Advisory Committee (CCSEPAC), (pronounced C C C PAC.) The name change is to reflect the population we serve: Concord PreK-8 and Concord Carlisle Regional High School and beyond. Check back for our name change and upcoming announcements.

Wrightslaw has some summer time articles in their June 24, 2008 newsletter, titled: Summer School for Parents - Relax, Re-Evaluate, Prepare for Next School Year.

On April 11th the MA Department of Elementary and Secondary Education issued a revised Parent’s Notice of Procedural Safeguards. This is the link to the the Department’s memorandum, and contains a link to the revised Parent’s Notice in several languages. This is a link to the revised Parent’s Notice of Procedural Safeguards brochure (April 2008) .
