Board honors two Students of the Month from special‑education and Golden Hills programs
Summary
The board recognized Timothy Bridal Buendia (TC McDaniel special education) and Nancy (Golden Hills Community School) as Students of the Month, with staff highlighting gains in engagement, independence, and academic progress.
Superintendent Estrella Henderson introduced Pamela Brinkerhoff and teacher Ashley Krebs (also spelled Kreps in the transcript) to present Timothy Bridal Buendia as the Solano County Office of Education's Special Education Student of the Month. Pamela Brinkerhoff said, "I have the privilege tonight to, welcome our Solano County Office of Education, Special Education Student of the Month, Timothy Bridal Buendia, along with his family members present tonight to honor Timothy." The presenters described Timothy's progress: increased engagement in group activities, decreased self‑injurious episodes, independent transitions in the school, and improved participation in art, science and speech groups.
Later Dr. Garrett and staff presented Nancy as the Golden Hills Community School student of the month. Dr. Garrett said the selection was unanimous and noted Nancy's improving grades and that she was "slated to graduate early" after her work in Edgenuity. Board members congratulated both students and their families. The recognition was highlighted as a meaningful part of the superintendent's report before the board moved to program updates.
