MBK Community Network Spotlight: The Basics Elmont
We featured this MBK Community Network spotlight in our March 2023 newsletter.
The Elmont Union Free School District is proud to announce that it has launched The Basics Elmont, a new initiative for children from birth to age 5. Founded by Dr. Ron Ferguson, The Basics aims to bolster brain development for social, emotional, and cognitive skill building as a foundation for school readiness.
The Basics Elmont initiative was officially launched in November 2022 with a luncheon attended by community stakeholders. Dr. Anael Alston, NYSED's Assistant Commissioner of the Office of Access, Equity, and Community Engagement Services, was a guest speaker at the event.
