He had that one as well earlier to Kris B gangs weapons campus Mexico safe from covid and violence and there's another one that's big right here thinking about how is she going to actually take what you want to really put on a show about that enhance relations with units open communication for staffs to remove to be able to share concerns or anyting better communication so that's another one that's broad so think about how if that's yours and you or you like the idea that a communication again improve educational programs for a student scores and grades and test scores and grades might be how you know but think again about improving educational programs how is that a priori how would you know at the board that the scaffold fine tuning programs with academic and Behavioral anybody remember fine-tuning suggest is that continued emphasis on specific programs remember okay okay okay so heard that cuz what I'm here and then is applying programs appropriately and making sure that the right tools are being used in the right stuff that's coming on the way saying that okay so can you example okay okay so one of the things I'm going to ask you is important to think about is having a having a priority that's even though I said it specific is still at 30,000 ft level so so not how would you come up with right vocabulary that's pretty in the weeds right that is that works in those different programs but maybe it's about better focusing on understanding how these programs are being so you've used to work the Della TSO delivery of specific programs with Fidelity and developing the Banning interpretation as needed right cuz we don't overlap and that we're not contradictory and confusing but again for the Ford it's not doing that work that had a weave how would I know as a board member that that's being done in the appropriately appropriate for students and staff to be in but I'm assuming appropriate just means the facilities are in good repair and are satisfactory in terms of furniture and we don't have the PE people in the lunch room or in a you know in our class so I'm not sure appropriated is it more about the standard of the facilities facilities appropriate for students and staff to the end is that there an acceptable condition I feel like sometimes there are things where I wouldn't have allowed that in my house for my child to be around with the why are we doing that with carpet RPG it does not look right insurance tax safety at Allstate Kristina uptain more programs for graduation as much as the need so really motivating our students attracting and growing our district to make it appealing to students as much as staff and similarity they're hiring more qualified staff security sodium Safety and Security he put a few times education in parentheses respect stronger Sports programs and regular High School bridge program budget bootcamp LOL oh okay we see did you want to spend on boot camp just like programs for Board of Education like extracurricular activities for things that can get our kids how can I put this delicately okay extracurriculars. Can't eat it's more about respecting and knowing how to conduct themselves and then okay so quite a list the Continuum of all kinds of ideas some very narrow specific some enormous buckets so here's your task now we're going to win all this down but we're going to start here I want you I gave her number Martinez RI Sticky's if you will figure out your five and you can put them into the chat and then I'll put them up here so we have a record here at them but what I'd like to do now cuz we're going to see if we have any patterns and save your number if everything is a priority nothing is a priority so we will want to say Jack if you can only focus and we know right now and still doesn't mean we neglect these other things that are priorities for the board and for the district at every meeting they have to be the most important in me things that you know for the next 6 months and that's about all there is this is what I want you to focus on some of that let you start with sticky and if you want to rewrite what year and change it so that it's more specific fine if you want to add another one that's great and then I'm going to collect him and we're going to start to group them and I'm going to write down once they are so five you would love for me to be the non-negotiable thank you all right when you're done I'm going to collect them I'm going to sort them and put them okay where's this so that it's not anchored to one person we're just going to look at these as I guess thank you okay yep she did yes yes I was going to suggest that let's actually do be just the first year and then we'll take a break I think cuz I think people are Yaks I think the next one's might take a little bit longer is its already 10:18 does that work for you okay these are the accordion one make it tough okay let's do this thank you Lucy. Yours are JPS security education and academics with a pretty big bucket disabilities I can't remember which between now and the end of the year but this is going to be communication and then curricular and sports activities things like that so this one is also academic achievement and it also says they're great literature educational programs graduation not in that bucket when you think about the next month I could you narrow that for something we have sports programs summer said that there would be extracurriculars and then we have stronger discipline I want to speak to that okay I'll put it next to it okay I have another one for safety I have one for open communication increasing enrollment and Chris. I have another one for safety but I think we see at least one thing working and learning environment I can read minds, so that's a good thing Communications another one here and included in that rental Community engagement improving educational and then safety and then open communication removing fear of retaliation princess Community engagement and Franklin in the program. so quite clearly communication is something you all straight out of the gate they want to work on that right you also all 5-day want to focus on safety so can we agree that we're going to refine those priorities that that's a Doctor Baker want you to really feel safety they can interpret that a variety of way what are you asking you in Maine the board understands the priority was there and hear the activities with secure and you you interpret of safety as covid-19 protocol you're not going to get the right data all right what about this one and come up with something specific and targeted so six months we know that grad race are of focus ground stop it I don't know if you saw their results recently about last year last year across the state again some of these are the whole platoon but we're trying to practice here's what you're going practice starting in June with the next several years is sending those few priorities that of course and we want you all to have a Waze like focus on these three to four six wood graduation be one of them well I can kids make up between now and the end of the year and kids be targeted I can't offer to ensure that their on trap maybe I think also technology even though I know it's that one wants the one with the technology but there are classes that haven't been able to utilize their computers because there's no charging station so I know that's affecting our academic achievement okay so the net kind of goes back to your a key piece so between now and then in the end of the year are you already if it was it you know something you know and and classroom utilization of ID that's something that's it at the tangible measurable piece is that again what you think they're doing all the work. Working all day every day but things are so important and want to make sure we're hearing about it the board meeting and look at it as we reassess our next priority acting like graduation is there ever be a good comedian open Audible credit or if you ready for graduation current legislation Casper kids to still graduate with 130 so that's going to help also for those kids who are further behind but so there are no number of strategies that are utilized by councillors just yesterday we had a date of meeting or we looked at 36th student individually and terms of their credit efficiency and from there the actual decision is made on which kids need to take taking the classes to get out in June and or all by August by the end of summer and so what that program needs to look like and so at the district level we work primarily with the district office and the school leaders in the school leaders are taking responsibility of providing directions to Port to the counselors which is what you hear. The lion saying about counselors really doing the work around what classes are needed but we currently have 36 seniors who are trying to get out on time which is Nipigon increase if we can get them all to graduate by August as you're told me your account number we don't have the resources get focused that way right budget cooking TV really single and that's about going to the soda and the cannibal why do indeed remember these priorities I don't want to do is have a miserable so I'm not covering its terrible but will be published Orinda actually helps the school the instructional leaders become instructional leaders by working with standards prioritizing which standard teachers are going to teach in understanding the day and being able to use that information how to really Target with students need of you just won't hear I'm talking to a teacher so I feel a little weird saying that cuz you already know this stuff but five teachers are teaching English and they're all teaching different standard without understanding which kids need for standards to close achievement Gap then you really don't accelerate soon achievement right because it's not targeted and I think that more of us are understanding that some of our soup School what I'm hearing is that a long with orenda so for example you know this week we're going to be doing this coming week we're going to be doing are like third or fourth instructional walk where all the principals all of us instructional leaders are going into particular classrooms peaches are ready they're teaching Pacific Standard and then after that there's a dialogue around what practices we saw and not supposed to increase and it does increase instructional capacity of the actual principles right so that they can intern long-term support instruction as an instructional leader so what I'm hearing them for the gold academic goal for this year would be in your classroom in other classrooms in building the capacity of the principles to do that work right so that they can be on campus and on-site supporting teachers instruction so what so are we still working on graduation but also best practices in the classrooms on our side throughout the school district best practices for crazy best practices right now but we're doing all School sites this year as a board member Martinez Larry ring in are you at that graduation rates is something you'd like a priority. Yes they're in the background hurry and be able to report to you with the governing board yes and especially this cashier because they miss the whole last year so I know that we have real super Spa I want to see a call from the principal here at the high school but maybe if we can have more opportunities for them to recover credit you have a Fighting Chance graduate and heard from your uncle what are they doing and then the practices in classrooms what I'm hearing from you all too and I think it came up a little bit in here with the technology this is probably what are we doing riding in our classrooms to ensure that last 18 months and that's something that but if it's clearly stated as a priority that makes sense. open Waze to checking in with our call alright then the next one that you have the most is that something you'd like to really narrow down for the rest of this year nodapl this year the issues at the secondary level we had some some stairs and some the goal for us but to me it seems like if we were to focus which we are with our souls I know it's going to take time to get there safe for the and onion students and employees for the environment and actually getting them here to do what they're supposed to be doing if we could do that that would be the biggest step as far as getting going on everything else everything else kind of will fall in line surprise New York Times last week ever heard of a case study of a high school to help kids come back and you know what we talked about how do you I feel like that there is bullying in their safety concern definitely just across the board and not specifically Justin approve that the safety district-wide employment and learning or 16th and Linden do we have is if that's what he's going to do how do I Iron Man State supported School and that might be a part of what's that talks to you about but they're doing so you're saying priorities is supporting and nurturing stop the awkward it can be qualitative and quantitative all of those things will tell you yes chicks learning programs like that so I think there are things already in place it's just that I would like to see maybe if you helped certain focus on certain things for the really catching the tail at be able to tell you the full picture on this thing that you we really want him clearly be able to understand the scope of what we're doing then having those priorities allow support and they would be if they were just introducing a new program because now they got a bucket that they're going to put their thinking it to share with you questions what do we land on Dayton nurturing safe supported secure positive School climate a safety supported enough it had safety support supportive environment for students remember the staff does the word you guys said you turn the ship that's going to say they want to really make sure we've enhanced safety a Safety and Security we want more security it wouldn't be the first thing I do like that we we had to prove that contract to hire and train more sros at our school site so I was happy I think that's big step in the right direction for safety and I was very happy that I'm just happy. I thought that was a big step for us you know to to focus on safety so keep moving in that direction to increase even more I think that was great 1 Rihanna a bird in a bucket nuggets of information I didn't get all your money I think we have three people and they're reasonable for the and as we always want your priorities to be included well but it's also that you're really thinking about if we can only do three things this year we can help get those students graduated best practices are being employed consistent proper classrooms in an extra measures of the extra focus on baby nursery will Coronavirus alright I need to stop talking to green for me okay yes she said I think I'm on so we're going to resume where is it dr. Lyons okay we're going to resend with Doctor Lion in her presentation of gold and a thank you all right well I already send you see how hard it is because work that we do in a school district is important and just a reminder that none of that work stops because you have three priorities but it helps you coalesce and things that you know I always say if everything fell off the cliff and these three things could be done what would those things being I think you can come up with three that are very impactful will help get the staff Direction and this is a good baby step into the idea of setting priorities I'm going to want to recommend that you're bored was that because of our time we're at 11 and went to go to swell I'm going to recommend that rather than that we put in the parking lot are three to five years and because now you are going to start seeing you. Kind of like when you buy a car and then you can like everybody myelinated in pain for and then we'll start trying to talk in June solidifying what those three things are remember this becomes a sort of public Proclamation as a board. The direction you're setting for the district all the other stuff still happen in tk12 if these are the things that we've asked talk to ensure that resources for programming is done and that we will be hearing about and holding both accounts or so it gives everybody a nice structure so instead what I want to do with this last hour get through the government are we going to be able to get these three goals this is where follow up with her and and give her some ideas about how now to use these at 8 with a community for me as a superintendent it was wonderful because I could make sure Incorporated that into my board report that would be able to come up and remind everybody this is a Ford priority here is why we're doing a presentation in the Friday letter when you're talking to principal so it becomes something that's very visible that happens all right so bored. You all should have a copy of that and I want to thank Miss Montoya for making sure we have all of our stuff until you should have something that looks like last time we talked a little bit about different components of this but we're going to spend an hour and it may be a little tedious but I really do want us to go through this page by page if you will because what we would like to do make sure that you're all comfortable with this and that this becomes your document going forward and that anything that is needing to be changed get changed and so before we do that to any of the board members that works on pulling these elements together one call about the process or do we just want to take it okay so this will be more of a collective effort now okay are we good with that all right and I'll encourage board member Martinez are at at just jump in anytime okay we will love to hear from you page to you have the table of contents if you see anything that you're really wrong with that as we go forward let us know on page 3 you have the Preamble and I'm reading this myself this is pretty standard fare I'm going to give you a couple of minutes just to look at it and see if you have any questions or concerns about page 3 relationship do we need to be more specific and somewhere in about how we now that assistance looks they want to stay that pay really highly highly recommend that the Masters in government courses be completed as soon as possible if not even off from a training before that the December 7th of December meeting for the ones who we know that I already have been elected do you want to say so just so we can how to create a document here that's going to be usable for a long time and he only change the only needs to be changed slightly so what about something that says while ensuring so I'm just me just say this out loud this make sense while ensuring a robust onboarding process of newly elected members that may include but is not limited to attending the csb a master's in where do you want me to say is that what you've been trying and trying to have a number an element that needs to be in the Preamble so that we come back to that idea that we have the onboarding process more they're only cell. okay alright Peyton for our public service and Effective Government I'm going to give you a couple minutes just to read the first three paragraphs Detroit Lions playing on back to your statement of the document being used for a long long time should we then ensure that we don't address gender the superintendent because don't be offended after Baker but what if you're no longer they superintendent like shouldn't we have no sheet it's an interesting question and so I suggest one she thinks she is up and use now just as much as he you can do she he or they which is also now the collective pronoun that is a future I used to teach the world but obviously being used now non-binary adults also are not subjected to a sheet so to your point yes you could definitely feel about that sent the document for a very long I said he she I don't care what is it and you could also just received the actual now so just instead of just like that would be easier right now the superintendent plays a dual role as superintendent is let's just do that you want to do that right now okay alright. so wherever it says it uses a referential pronoun for the superintendent plays and then it says she it would just repeat the superintendent all right good catch thank you and again this is something we're all having to think about it to me. He's trying to talk to me I'm so California school boards Association of cspa Professional Standards for individual to become a the following concerns about any of these from Professional Standards all right at the bottom of cage for than you also see a paragraph simply taken from the government score it's okay that you all have worked with so it's a great book and really does a good job I think talking about the system's relationship between us and the district are so far so good a page file what you read that first paragraph can take from the book and then the next paragraph I just went through that second paragraph again but with the work we've done all morning it's really focused on that first priority there the first effectiveness all right I'm going to let you go ahead and get you those next bullet but I really do think that's what this point is probably focus on all of those all right the last half of this page is the board's job questions about the rest of the bullets are on Page Six I'm all of those I think two came up on your self eval some of them should look alright we're going on governance team members role differentiation between board trustees and superintendent just break it up so I don't lose anybody falling asleep during the middle of this work Direction and related outcome moral imperative is the heart of governance strategic direction is the brain to provide policy Direction the board is accountable for the financial health of the district adopt approved G plans and Frameworks 3 support the work of the district create and support a positive organizational culture in the district he is to make certain there are sufficient resources to do the job at every level questions or comments about those remember Smith will you reformed by oversight and accountability are programmed effective plans working for Progress to achieve goals continuously improve quality of superintendent information is key superintendent evaluation no surprises should be discussed throughout the year Community leadership major responsibility is to educate and inform Community with a unified cannot be delegated to staff ability to talk or walk and listen to learn about it on number for gist again we're talking about the setting priorities is giving you the ability to engage in those which conversations if the work is effective and doing what you want us to do a lot of this document when I was reading through it last night I feel like there's a better word than no surprises because I feel a connection to Alexa and I think it's very bored right now but individual whether it's a surprise and if it's not something I like oh yeah I remember XYZ I can't remember that it's not a surprise attack connection but to the person receiving it is considered there are board members to have some formation we'll be prepared to answer this question it gave me time to process so I was not surprised that the question was so ask I had another board member who's next something with me I'm not going to ask it right now but I'll call you because I know that you know I've got something here I need to follow up on it really I think said that way is it is a reminder for the governance team that things shouldn't be held in their Hip Pocket and then played at a certain time and willingness to communicate ahead of time you're going to questions at the gas that just come up that's fine because it's connected to it I think it's when they're so again I mean your examples is that stuff for number called you and give you the heads-up so right now we're talkin about this bullet point I do believe that explanation that you gave in regards to a god or do you maybe that can put but you're so that it's clarified or if in the future there are new board members they understand because it's connected to that they're still around end of the year we're not going by the way ya here Sophia was never discussed nothing nothing board members agreed that next section I'm Paige. The superintendent is responsible to develop a plan to court the actions of all schools in District apartments to see the board directions and vision by Leading the system can we put an apostrophe between or board by leaving the system by I don't know there's just leaving me to be bold capitalize first section and then managing in the second section so, it's kind of hard to directions Envision above number one superintendent managing above number two and then I like that and not gold you can be so bold in that it makes sense in the mission problem-solving truth or false the superintendent responsible to ensure that all school facilities are operationally effective States and prepared for the primary task of educating students through managing monitoring and for me recognizing valuations B unit heating division and then utilize and problem-solving tools of quality cuz it's right is that okay and utilizing okay monitoring I understand and for me I'm not sure what recognizing I think it might be what yeah what's the difference first driver so that she recognizes areas of concern maintenance are breaking operation then inform your decision-making that you might monitor in the future that we will use the evaluation think it's better than that Continuum and manages our commitment and obligation yes please thank you our, our commitments and obligations the thing Unity of purpose Unity of purpose of the common focus and Mission Vision values and beliefs deeply informing the goals at the governance team members share about students at District staff public information that help board members and send their individual differences to fulfill a greater purpose and Mission value of teamwork operation accountability sharks and results-oriented resume I'd like to include now as much as I want this to be a document that lives on forever any government handbook that's going to be worth any did any of you must be reviewed and adapted and make things more relevant and we would have time if you want to do a value that you have the time to spend time really say no he's Urbana unified Valley so if you can live with these we can leave them for now knowing that when we plan on page I'm good with that because I personally feel like I'm happy for you all to get to something that's final enough room. what are the changes that you can adopt it and then it becomes your living document that you start working with and then we talked about doing an activity around reclining and updated and then again you know you're referring everything with the new year on it right so then this would be come to me okay thank you a perfect fried and whatever was going to ask the board member Martinez hour but no she said hurry so I don't know if you want to jump in or not activity 144 Sheridan Street Dental disabilities have no more all right we're going over to help me to text 1439 positive certification and positive fund balance in the current and out years during a global pandemic negotiated teachers associations contract after District history included 11 consecutive years of impasse 100% of all staff receive compensation increases compensation study for all employee groups and professional learning opportunities for certificated and classified staff weekly communication system for weekly stakeholder updates transparency relationships with Riverside County Office of Education city mayor and manager Ben's chief of police police captain and the San Gorgonio Rotary Club play again but if your points are fried all of the nuances of what those things are that you're still working on it they really are meant to be the things that you do want to stay you know that you can have kids with disabilities have special have others that did not make them are there places where you at but it's still overall something about which the district has it has some pipes is not you can book it can be but I mean these are things that you do want to take out there definitely think you would want in a non boarding for a new board member to know kind of things at the board focused on that again this would be something part of the living document that you would need that date best time to update the hand won't be at all so update your priority works with your superintendent to set goals for the all that stuff is going to happen so that it makes sense are you like the last year's and we're going to come home and type thing and then the district goals of you write to my aunt's that use of the technology or tell her we went to work keep moving forward with that good start or 101 technology bullet for district gold is that what I'm understanding. I mean I just feel like we can't just assume that we are 12 12 Knology if it's not being utilized in enhancing and you can read it both ways and you can sing informational technology infrastructure and utilization right so you give me that was something that I know it's part of the origin of this mess that he had put on there can I ask weather report okay. and then when you get this we're going into 2223 as his dad right now and then make a note that one for the upcoming come and then whenever we start getting it in the normal routine process of updating this handbook then we could stay here that you would what it says here that you visited him encentus in January and go ahead and do it in June but leave out of here. do you want to do that makes sense I'm sorry right now what is the price attitude add a t to Budget on number one and then we'll make note that we're going to revisit all of this in June and then we'll go ahead and list the three board priorities here right now yellow and keep January now I would not I would recommend that the draft list is not listed because that is really part of an activity and not necessarily something that was on a final document wasn't working list yes will bring up with that for a newborn number like you she okay great calendar in there for now because then you'd be able to slug in and say to staff now in October would like to hear an update on XYZ one of our city Austin and creating hurting environment sweeping the board meetings that I need to attend call Governor Pence and maybe yeah naming the board meeting because those board meetings are codified right the window that it's our state requirement to have that as an organizational meeting when we know that it has to be called that so that the public knows what you're doing is that you never know what can end up come come come up with something to get pushed off and then planning calendar I recommend that you have a website and then we gave it out as a part of our board. things can always be there slowed in but if I'm a member of the public and I want to see when you're going to talk about adoption that would be amazing. Going to come in again that's where we would communicate that so people would know in the board notes next board meeting we will talk about these three main things are noted actual in a cricket on adoption the things that are the big meaty things that somebody might want to direct me to talk about other ways to do that the only reason is like I said that regular meeting special meeting emergency meeting organization may be required by but I think work-in-progress you'll Ridgeline it as you go through it and you get feedback about working that's not working so we step in stone and never have to touch it but lightning is where do I live in an effort to go a little bit more quickly I'm going to ask you to fuse again I think our boilerplate did anybody any of these change from the csb a that you know of okay okay so when I looked at these people to me and your crosswalk either but they look very much like those are just going to ask you to look at what pages and talks about the appropriate walls of the board members KD 12s about Collective responsibility and then I forgot question might be out of order cuz that's where to buy 19005 and then the next one by one 9000 he might want to reorder those now on page 13 4 by 11 9000 and so you should be able to identify the role of the poor and I'm about to make a suggestion that are you not happy you know the website you may want to keep them in here or when you give them to a new one I would recommend to spell easy to get lost in all the medications and not I would say again they're on your website that way they're on play it have all the vacation so I would just leave that alone especially if you're going to give this to a new board member just take those out and then they all fall and it's really easy for me to see that there's only instead of pages because sometimes it gets lost in the text and you know what you might want to do is ever going to talk about 40 in that onboarding sheet just have the edited version and then give them this in the head very few will look up the regulations so we're on page 19 is 19 is born by Lady to come to the limit of board authority to ask you to read all of that for drywall that is on page 21 Magic Burger Kitchen a 19 under all of me with the proper consideration to appropriate District process does that mean that it could also be dismissed and what do we get informed that it was dismissed it depends so that's a great question if you're in the grocery store and somebody says you know t-shirt expecting School Prince text lady school crossing guard this happened and I'm done then saying have you called the school principal talk to you and making sure that you connect that person would be appropriate and that's the goal you may not ever How about if something has happened but it is writing or there is no somebody is really asking you to get this it typically we do try to close as possible but it depends on if this is really passed out with all a complex of problems and you may or may not know what level it was. It all when you can talk and sometimes everything else. that we can have that written though I mean but that we know that we could get them we could do a follow-up call or that we know that sometimes we're not going to be pulled at the loop with close or that it was closed does that make sense follow up chicken with superintendent Will Parker I rather not give an example because I know people are going to get upset if you don't mind scenario and then that happened to you that I'm concerned about the safety of my child in this crosswalk in front of the school there's nobody there and it takes forever and I'm afraid they're going to get hit you say that person that you have you spoken to you since what I can school fire somebody have you spoken to the next day I did and she said we don't have it so then you say so then we are the director of the director of ed services now you don't care anything. when there's nobody or no I wasn't aware that one board member isn't getting information at the end of course I would love for the board to be updated on the situation of students that were an independent study. I have product and the resolution right so we have a updates on d i and I meant with a parent and that's the whole detailed specific example so I'm happy to follow up with a board when when you guys were updated what the solution was the information that was also include in who did in multiple Weekly's and in the process that was also already stated so I can in the upcoming weekly site all of that and where we are in the process is this is not a gender. I just want to let's learn back into the d i program in person I mean okay so we're going to have to refrain the to keep from so that staff is not recreating work that they've already shared I'm going to be in the update sightings are we included the updates so that is clear all highlighted in yellow the multiple times we reiterated where we are with it and the next steps so you have some information Saint August sight where it is and we'll follow up because I don't want to put staff in the position where they are going back doing work they've already done it so I'll be informing you all of where we've already included that will highlight it we're we're at Crest example a shared I didn't want to call them to bring up to begin with I just is there a way that we can explain more details of that when we have new board members they understand or it somewhere else I think it really becomes part of the communication part all that we talked about because the seats to remember in there that 30,000 ft few they're not meant to be that the big idea and so I would not recommend to the weed and making sure the men that your other how to process document annually you can say this is something I don't think it's happening here's my experience how to rectify that. How is that make sense I would be somewhere right or I mean that's why I was asking for clarification on the lake so I can go on YouTube I'll be there but it's different communication is so part of it is to then go back to your protocols policies and I think that's where it's in your protocols and practices versus in your profile off Olivia. Thank you. They lying living document with my back to these things and you'll look at them with working let's not working but that's why it's so important that you all happy to retreat and had the opportunity to present working for us at That level all right going to keep us on track and can we stay a couple extra minutes to finish or how about everybody have a sister finish the board governance which we have a lot of changes we need to make any way right now if you're going to make some changes and stuff to be at it so this is kind of a good stopping point okay I'm back in with you right with it I don't want to say page 20 because it'll change okay but we can definitely I am cautiously optimistic that we can finish this next time and then we'll have to constantly modify so if you can take note of where it says a board member whose child is attending like for the star next to that and we'll start there. Then we're going to see 25 also in March right that's fine I don't have my calendar with me well I didn't think of bringing you don't have a calendar on the phone with my hard copy calendar and that's on my desk so I can wear that was part of the items to bring no and I don't mean to be difficult so here let me just tell you if if for me the last week of I am actually going to be gone for 2 weeks in March is the first time I've been anywhere in for 2 weeks is 34 years so did I have March 5th available I have February 6th and that's and I have it March 5th you will not be insulted if she can Baker you so where's my agenda is there a motion where on item five is there a motion in the second chair during this meeting I move to adjourn Emotion by mr.
