WHAT IS SEPTA?
Herricks SEPTA (Special Education Parent Teacher Association) is a local chapter of the National PTA and is a district-wide organization open to everyone in the community. We focus on supporting the academic and social development of our children. Our programming benefits children with special needs, as well as children in general education settings.
