Welcome to the Fairfield SEPTA, Inc.!

The Fairfield SEPTA, Inc. is a group of parents, teachers and community professionals striving to improve the education and social interactions and recreational opportunities of their children with special needs. Click here to learn about the history of Fairfield SEPTA, Inc.

Our mission is in line with the CT PTA mission:

To support and speak on behalf of children and youth in the schools, in the community, and before governmental bodies and other organizations that make decisions affecting children: To assist parents in developing the skills they need to raise and protect their children; and
To encourage parent and public involvement in the public schools in Fairfield.

Fairfield SEPTA, Inc. serves all families of children with IEPs in Fairfield Public Schools.
NEW LOCATION!!!!!!! We hold meetings the second Wednesday of every month at 7:15 p.m. in McKinley School in the Library/Media Center.

The referendum has been cancelled. The required number of signatures was 1,832 and the petitioners only turned in: 1,225. The Town Clerk's office did not verify those signatures since they did not reach the required number. Our work is NOT done yet. The budget is still approximately $3.5 million less than what was needed for a move forward budget. The Board of Ed will be discussing over the next several weeks how to allocate the funds that they have been given. Many programs are on the table as potential cuts. Your input is still very important.
