JOB FAIR SATURDAY!
During March, the Albany Special Education Parent Advisory Council – SEPAC, for short – recognized 65 City School District of Albany employees as HEROes.
The HEROes were nominated for going above and beyond in their work on behalf of students with disabilities.
All the HEROes received a certificate that includes an explanation of why they were nominated for HERO status, and each school has received a poster with the names of all of this year’s HEROes.
