SEPAC Awards
As you may know, each year, parents, guardians, and students are able to nominate NPS and Out of District teachers and staff for a Special Education Parent Advisory Council (SEPAC) Award. A SEPAC Award recognizes exceptional NPS and Out of District teachers, aides, behavior therapists, psychologists, bus drivers, crossing guards, administrators, and other staff for the role they played in a student’s special education journey this past academic year. Are you interested in nominating an exceptional NPS or Out of District teacher and/or staff member? The deadline for nominations is Monday, May 22nd. Here’s how the process works:
- Submit a nomination through this nomination form.
- All celebratory nominations will be recognized.
- In early June, your nominee will receive:
- A printed SEPAC Award delivered to their home school
- A note with the kind words you wrote about your nominee
- A short slideshow of anonymized nominations lifting up the good work taking place across the district
- Each principal will receive a list of nominees from their school
- Do you need to nominate everyone from your student’s team? Please only nominate the teachers and staff members who you feel have been exceptional!
- Questions? Reach out to: newtonspecialeducationawards@gmail.com
Thank you so much for your participation recognizing the exceptional NPS and Out of District teachers and staff who work so hard to support special education students. Please help us share this message as widely as possible so the SEPAC Awards can reach all corners of our community!
