Summary
A Building Blocks representative publicly thanked the district for partnership with the preschool program, described increasing needs among neurodiverse learners, and praised specific staff (Diane, Zoila, Lisa, Phil, Tony, Skip) for their assistance and collaboration.
A representative of Building Blocks addressed the board during public comment to thank Dr. Greer, Principal Ramsey and district staff for their partnership and support of the preschool program. The speaker described an increased need for strong supports for families and for 'out-of-the-box' programmatic responses for an increasingly neurodiverse population.
“At Building Blocks, like schools across the country, we're seeing an increased need and for strong support systems and out of the box thinking as we adapt to meet the needs of families and an increasingly neurodiverse population of learners,” the speaker said. The representative singled out kindergarten staff and maintenance staff for their assistance and described a field event that transported 29 preschoolers by bus.
The speaker expressed appreciation for district staff who help families transition to kindergarten and for long-time helpers such as Skip, who continues to support the program. No formal action followed this public comment; the remarks were recorded as expressions of gratitude and practical partnership.
