Groton-Dunstable SpedPAC Annual Business Meeting
The Groton-Dunstable SpedPAC Annual Business Meeting was held Tuesday, June 17th at the Groton-Dunstable Regional High School. Annual elections were held for Officer positions for school year, 2008-2009. The results were as follows:
President - Melissa Sweeny
Vice President - Nancy Bugbee
Secretary - Cyndy Premru
Treasurer - Maryanne Squeglia
Much of the meeting's discussion focused on SpedPAC`s important accomplishments, not only from this current year, but over the last several years: substantial progress in collaborating and communicating with the District Administration, successful lecture
series, establishment of and additional contributions this year to the Education Resource Library for use by all of the District Schools' staff members and successful roundtables at the High School, Middle School and Florence Roche Elementary.
Goals for the upcoming year, an update of SpedPAC's grant applications, and a preliminary draft of the 2008-2009 Lecture Series were brought forth for discussion by attendees as well.
It was great to have Cam Huston, the District's PPS Director, in attendance as she gave us a synopsis - now at the end of her first year here - as to what she thought the District's areas of needs were in Special Education, what she had specifically focused on during her first year and some of the things she hopes to accomplish next year.
Special recognition was given to Sarah Campbell, outgoing Vice President, for her seven years of dedicated service, efforts and support not only to SpedPAC but to countless number of families here
in the community. Her wit and wisdom will be greatly missed.
As always, SpedPAC welcomes anyone who is interested in special education issues and volunteering their time and ideas to this 'energetic' parent advisory council. Please feel free to contact any of the officers.
We wish everyone a relaxing and fun-filled summer!
