Summary

A representative from Oasis House urged the Ontario School District to partner with the nonprofit to identify and support approximately 400–500 families experiencing homelessness or vulnerability; the board did not respond during the meeting but the superintendent or designee may follow up.

Kylie, a representative of Oasis House, delivered the lone public comment during the regular session, outlining the nonprofit's work supporting families in crisis. Kylie asked the district to partner with Oasis House to better understand student needs and coordinate support. "Throughout some of the work that Oasis House has done so far, Kylie states that she has about 400-500 families who are homeless and vulnerable and need that support from us," the public-comment record states.

Chair Bret Uptmor read the board's public-comment rules before testimony, noting the board typically does not respond during meetings but may direct the superintendent or a designee to follow up with a speaker upon request. The transcript records no immediate board response to the Oasis House request; any follow-up would occur administratively.
