Speaking Loud and Clear: Recently my town's school committee held an emergency meeting to discuss the future of certain aspects of the SPED programs.
It was heartening to not only have so many parents pack the room
and diplomatically voice their strong opinions, but also for the town's
leaders to be listening and agreeing.
And that is what Parent Power is truly all about. Standing up. Being heard.
Taking action and advocating for the child that cannot.
At the end of the night, one parent stated "The People Have Spoken."
And so they have. And so they will.
