Special Education Parent Teacher Association
The HVS Septa Organization strives to create a vehicle for our members to network and share their common experiences. Through SEPTA, you may find helpful suggestions from others like yourself, who have already gone through situations you are now facing. You may also find that you can help others with advice pertaining to situations you have already experienced.
Being part of SEPTA allows you to stay connected and involved in your child’s education. Your ideas, suggestions, and input are always important. Membership is $7 per person. For information on how to join SEPTA please send an email to dfgrasso@verizon.net.
Every year we co-sponsor The HVS Transition Fair, which will have informative workshops for parents and entertainment for the children. We also plan to bring enrichment programs into school.
As always, all help is greatly appreciated, even if you have only a little time to spare. Our monthly meetings are the first Thursday of every month at 12pm unless otherwise noted.
