Get an inside look at one of the most important roles in our schools. Join SMMUSD for a session all about paraeducators: who they are, what they do (and don’t do), and how they make a daily impact on students’ academic, social, emotional, and behavioral success.
You’ll hear directly from district staff about:
• How paras collaborate with teachers and specialists
• When and why paras are assigned
• What families can do to build strong partnerships as part of the IEP and school support team
Whether you’re new to IEPs or have been in the system for years, this workshop will give you practical insight and clearer expectations — and help you feel more confident advocating for your child.
• Date: Tuesday, December 2, 2025
• Time: 8:45–10:00 AM
• Location: SMMUSD District Office – 1717 4th Street, Santa Monica
