PPS - East Greenbush Central School District

The Special Needs Parent Support Group open to all parents of students with special needs as well as teachers and staff working with our students. Our group has developed relationships with the Board of Education, Superintendent, administration and staff. The goal of our group is knowledge for all parents so that every student can achieve their highest potential.

At our meetings, we provide parents with information on our district programs and resource information from outside agencies. We welcome speakers from a wide variety of agencies on disabilities and special education law. There is also time for conversation and making connections with other parents who have children with special needs.

East Greenbush Central School District is very fortunate to have a Special Needs Parent Support Group. The group is co-chaired by Pat Martinelli and Jessica Lansing.

All Meetings are held in the Genet School Library at 7:00 p.m.
