Empower.

Old Bridge Parents and Friends of Diverse Learners is a Special Education Parent Advisory Group (SEPAG). A SEPAG is a parent-led advisory group for the parents/guardians of students receiving special education services, also known as a Special Education Parent Advisory Group (SEPAG).

In New Jersey school districts are required to have a SEPAG:

“Each board of education shall ensure that a special education parent advisory group is in place in the

district to provide input to the district on issues concerning students with disabilities.”

[New Jersey Administrative Code 6A:14-1.2(h)]

How Can You Get involved?

Our SEPAG consists of a minimum of one parent liaison from each school.  This also includes parents of children who are in an out of district placement.  In this volunteer role, parent liaisons serve as a representative of the SEPAG at PTA meetings and BOE meetings and ensure that the mission of the group is being followed through their respective schools.  Additionally, they attend SEPAG meetings and provide feedback on best practices as well as challenges and help generate solutions that positively impact children.
