SEPAG

Check us out on Facebook!
This year, the Stillwater SEPAG is committed to supporting sensory-friendly initiatives that help all students feel safe, included, and able to participate fully in school activities. Our intention is to work collaboratively with school staff, families, and the community to identify opportunities
where small, thoughtful adjustments—such as sensory-friendly spaces, flexible participation
options, and proactive planning for events—can make a meaningful difference. By listening to
the needs of students and caregivers, we aim to create inclusive experiences that reduce
overwhelm, promote regulation, and celebrate neurodiversity throughout the school year.
