Community Advisory Committee
YOU ARE INVITED!!
The Community Advisory Committee (CAC) represents the special education community and advised the Board of Education. Join us and make a difference for our children.
The CAC meets monthly on the 3rd Tuesday of each month at the District office in the Board Room. Meetings are 7:00 pm-9:15pm. We also offer a zoom viewing only option.
The CAC is for any interested parent, friend, family or community member interested in special education. Additional membership information is available at the meetings.
For more information on the CAC, please contact Melody Royal, Parent Liaison, at royalm@mdusd.org or by calling 925-682-8000 ext. 4297.
Please Join us at Willow Creek Center at 6 p.m. on Thursday October 3rd for an Experience Dyslexia Presentation. The event will include an overview of dyslexia, along with six experiential stations designed to provide a simulation of some of the challenges the people with dyslexia face daily. While no experiences can compeltely capture the challenges faced by people with learning disabilities, the aim is to provide a brief glimpse into their daily experiences as we seek to serve and support our students.
Please register in advance of the event.
