SNAC - Special Needs Advisory Council
The Special Needs Advisory Council (SNAC) strives to represent the interests of Exceptional Children (EC) students, with the goal of helping to improve the educational experience of EC students and promote inclusion and awareness to benefit all students in the CHCCS district.
What is SNAC and how does it help children with special needs?
SNAC is a group of parents, district staff, and community professionals working together for the continuous improvement of the CHCCS Exceptional Children's program. Our purpose is to influence district policy on EC issues and promote inclusion in our schools. If your child currently has (or recently had) an IEP, a 504 plan, is medically fragile or has learning differences, then it is in your interest to get involved with SNAC.
What Does SNAC Do?
Serves as a link between EC parents and the district by sharing information, identifying concerns, and improving collaboration
Makes recommendations to the Superintendent and Board of Education on desired improvements
Studies areas of concern related to the education of exceptional children
