In August 2025, WPS asked parents with students on IEPs and 504 Plans whether they wanted to opt-in to give permission to share their student's directory information with the Wellesley Special Education Parent Advisory Council (SEPAC). Directory information includes students' names, addresses, emails, and telephone numbers. It does NOT include information about students' IEPs or 504 Plans.
Some parents have reported that they could not opt in because they did not have a student on a signed IEP or 504 Plan, their students had an out of district placement, or their students attend private school or homeschool.
SEPAC membership is open to all, and we would love for you to join our SEPAC directory and newsletter.
Are you a Wellesley parent or caregiver of a child requiring special support? There is a Google Group for you.
This Google Group is for parents and caregivers of children in the Wellesley Public Schools or who live in Wellesley and who have an interest in Special Education issues and resources for children who require additional support.
The Google Group is parent run and independent from the Wellesley SEPAC--it is distinct from the SEPAC Newsletter. The Google Group is not moderated for content--only for compliance with the established rules (be kind and no negative reviews).
