Dear SEPTA Members & Friends,

 

As we start a new year together, SEPTA is here for you - we want to welcome everyone to learn about SEPTA and to benefit from our mission and our efforts to help kids, parents and staff.  SEPTA recognizes that many kids have special needs - such as attentional or executive functioning issues, social interactions, anxiety, learning disabilities and/or physical disabilities.  Some may receive special education, academic intervention (AIS) or other support services or have a 504 plan.  Some may not yet receive support or services.

 

We are committed to helping all understand kids' needs and enabling kids to be as successful as possible.  We hope that whether you have a special needs child or not, that you will support SEPTA and its mission - your support will help many children, parents and school staff.
