Once again this year, NESCA will host a series of special evening seminars on Transition: the long-term process, beginning with assessment, in which students with special needs and their families should actively engage in preparation for life beyond high school.
All will take place in the lower lobby of our building at 55 Chapel Street in Newton, from 7:00 – 9:00pm. There is ample free, off-street parking in the lot opposite the main entrance, marked with a blue, Chapel Bridge Park banner.
The cost is $15 per individual session or $60 for the full series of five. Seating is limited. To register, please call Amanda Renzi at 617-658-9800 or email nesca@nesca-newton.com.
