Massachusetts Chapter 766 Regulations require each school district to establish a PAC on Special Education. We function as an independent, volunteer group for parents/guardians of children with disabilities.

Our goals are to:

• advocate for an inclusive environment where children with disabilities have equal access to all educational opportunities in the Swampscott Public Schools.

• provide a forum for parents/guardians of children with disabilities to meet, ask questions, and share information.

• offer educational presentations on a variety of topics to the community.

• work in partnership with school officials and members of the school committee to facilitate communication of Special Education goals and programs to the community.

• meet regularly with school professionals to participate in the planning and evaluation of Special Education programs, services and policies.
