LWPTSA Council Special Education Group (SEG) Meeting @ LWSD Resource Center Board Room
May 27 @ 6:30 pm – 8:30 pm
LWPTSA Council Special Education Group (SEG) Meeting @ LWSD Resource Center Board Room

Please join us for the last SEG meeting of the year! 

At our April meeting, we had powerful conversations and brainstormed ideas about building a culture of inclusion in our PTSA events. This time, we’ll be diving deeper by exploring what it means to have an inclusive culture, and how we can bring it to life.

Together, we’ll:

  • Reflect on inclusive values and practices
  • Work in small groups to develop action plans for creating more welcoming, inclusive PTSA events and activities
  • Connect with others who are passionate about meaningful inclusion

Whether you were there in the last meeting or joining us for the first time, your voice matters. We’d love to have you with us as we continue this important work. This meeting is recommended for PTA presidents and parents who volunteer in PTSA events or activities!


LWPTSA Council’s Special Education Group’s (SEG) monthly meetings kick off at 6:30 pm with family networking. At 6:50 pm, we will begin our formal presentation. Ample time for discussion and Q&A will follow.
On-site child care is available for LWSD students and school-aged siblings! Contact SpecialServices@LWSD.org no later than 3 business days prior to the meeting, with your student’s name and age.

LWPTSA Council’s Special Education Group (SEG) aims to connect and support families in the LWSD community with students who receive special services through an Individualized Education Plan (IEP), 504 Accommodations Plan, or Individualized Health Plan (IHP). We host monthly meetings that start with time for families to connect with one another, followed by a formal presentation on topics relevant to the SEG community and an opportunity for member questions and input. We also support families and local PTA special education chairs through a lending library, information about resources available in our community, and updates on news relevant to the special education community.
