Meet the PTA: Brooke Horowitz, Special Education Liaison

Hello Clinton Community,

I am excited to be the special ed liaison for the Clinton PTA and SEPAC - the special education parent advisory committee. This is my second year in the role.

I’m first and foremost here to help you. Special ed can be complicated. Students in our district have a wide array of special needs and there’s no one-size-fits-all solution. As the special ed liaison, I can help you navigate, commiserate and celebrate.

Most of the time you’ll hear from me, right here on Facebook. SEPAC is an advocacy group that brings parents and caregivers across the district together to discuss special education issues and provide support. Throughout the year I’ll let you know when meetings are coming up (You should come! They’re open to everyone) and keep you informed about other events and issues that may be of interest. I attend almost all SEPAC and PTA Exec board meetings (yup), and make sure the PTA knows what SEPAC is focused on and that SEPAC knows what’s on our families’ minds.

You can find the 2020-2021 SEPAC meeting dates at http://sepacsoma.org/meetings/. 

Please don’t hesitate to be in touch if you have any questions or ideas about our special special ed community at Clinton.
