Special Services Department

As we go into Winter Break and wrap up another calendar year, we want to take a moment to thank our students, families, and staff for their hard work, kindness, and dedication. May this holiday season bring joy, peace, and cherished moments with loved ones. We look forward to welcoming everyone back in the new year, ready for more learning, growth, and fun together!

Is there someone who has helped in your child’s education, going above and beyond to see your child for who they really are? Has someone gone the extra mile to include your child and brighten their day?

You and your child can nominate them for the monthly Special Services Superhero! Fill out this NOMINATION FORM and a Superhero will be featured in our newsletter.

The mission of the Moses Lake School District SEPAC (Special Education Parent Advisory Council) is to facilitate collaboration between students, parents, staff, the Board of Education, and the community at large. The SEPAC will promote training and resources, inclusive practices, understanding of, respect for, and support of all children with special needs in our community.

The first SEPAC Parent Meeting is on for Tuesday, January 14th.

Back by popular demand are our Department Check Ins. This is a space and opportunity for some of our Special Services departments to offer some general information and/or activities that may be relevant to you and your families. Take a look at what some of our departments here at Special Services have to share for this month, and check back each newsletter to see what else is to come!

Although our students love Winter Break and being home for a few days with no school, it also comes with chilly weather that keeps us inside for extended periods of time. Check out the activities below provided by our OT/PT department of some fun movement activities to try with your kids on those cold December and January days ahead.
