Leslie M. Leslie, Coordinator of the Massachusetts Parent Advisory Council, will be reviewing the federal special education law, Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) as well as the state's special education law (MGL c. 71B). These laws protect students with disabilities who are eligible for special education and guarantee them an Individualized Education Program (IEP) designed to meet their unique needs.
Any area parent who has a child with disabilities or suspects their child may have disabilities, is welcomed to attend. For more information, contact Margo Killoran, Hamilton-Wenham Special Education Parent Advisory Council, at VivienneGirl@comcast.net or at 978-468-6246.
