South Central Region of NH
Partnerships in Special Education

Connect with school personnel, parent groups, and community professionals who are working in special education in South Central Region of NH.

 


Parents are connecting with school personnel and community professionals to understand what it takes to create and maintain partnerships in Special Education.

The Parent Involvement in Special Education forum was held in January 2010.
We learned what is happening in schools today around parent involvement.
We learned the vision of parent involvement in special education.
We learned the challenges to reach the vision.

What is the vision and what are the ways to reach that vision?
Stay tuned for the results!
