The South Colonie Special Education PTA or SEPTA is a special PTA unit chartered in 2009 to help parents advocate for children with special needs. Special Education provides a free appropriate education in the least restrictive environment for children who require differentiated programs and/or special services beyond what is typically provided by the general education school program.
SEPTA is a unit organized for those interested in the issues of educating gifted and special needs children. The SEPTA unit meetings are held in the Sand Creek Middle School library. For a schedule please view the website’s Google calendar.
We invite every parent, guardian, teacher, administrator, staff member and community member to join us and become a member of our unit.
