LEGISLATIVE BREAKFAST
On Monday, League School for Autism hosted a Legislative Breakfast with our largest gathering yet. This annual event offers state and local legislators the opportunity to meet and hear from League School students, families, and supporters about critical issues impacting the autism community.
Special thanks to State Senator Bill Driscoll Jr., Senator Paul Feeney, State Representative Ted Philips, Representative Paul McMurtry, and Senator Mike Rush for their support. Also, a HUGE thanks to the remarkable Elizabeth Dello Russo Becker of the Massachusetts Association of Approved Private Schools (MAAPS) for an informative update on the special education legislative landscape.
The program also included presentations by League School students, Dylan and Chadi, and alumni parent, Clare Folan. The Doug Flutie, Jr. Foundation for Autism Spectrum of Sound Choir, led by Kelsey, concluded the event with a special performance of Shipping Up to Boston, Dirty Water, and Sweet Caroline. Thank you ALL for sharing your talents!
Extra thanks to League School students and team members whose contributions made the event a success, including Gabe, Heidi, Lissy, Molly, Anna, Amy, Maureen, Kaleigh, Larry, Cheryl, Tim, Lindsay, Chrissy, Jack, Sean, Erin, Matt, and the Facilities Team.
