Parent Advisors for Special Education (PASE)

Parents at PASE Meeting

Our Mission:

PASE is a parent driven forum to positively impact the educational opportunities for children with special needs through collaboration and dissemination of information.

PASE Will:

  • serve as a resource for information to expand your knowledge
  • communicate up-to-date changes and trends to the educational system
  • improve parents' knowledge of the educational system
  • provide points of contact for service organizations and support groups
  • offer opportunities and workshops to learn how to assist in the educational process
  • provide an arena for feedback from parents

You're invited to Participate:

PASE meets four to five times a year at 6:30 pm on a Monday at the Kent ISD Educational Services Center (see schedule for updates on in-person or virtual meetings). You'll find us at 2930 Knapp NE near the corner of Knapp and Beltline, just north of I-96 (click here for a map).
