00:09:19,680 training day or whatever but then 212 00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:21,240 sometimes it's someone's sick right so I 213 00:09:19,680 --> 00:09:23,600 was curious how these would complement 214 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:26,000 each other and then what other sources 215 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:27,760 you might be using just sure yeah well 216 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:30,320 there's multiple Pathways so if we're 217 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:32,560 speaking about just absences so a sick 218 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:35,880 day here a personal day there a planning 219 00:09:32,560 --> 00:09:40,200 day the planning days and probably 220 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:43,079 about um I would say 40% of our absences 221 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:47,160 we know in advance maternity leaves 222 00:09:43,079 --> 00:09:49,519 planning days for PD um uh substitutes 223 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:52,600 that are called for SST IEP meetings 224 00:09:49,519 --> 00:09:55,040 things like that and so for that we 225 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:57,360 always put out to our our regular subs 226 00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:59,760 first for a few reasons one we have 227 00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:02,360 relationships two it's less expensive 228 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:04,040 and three um you know the schools have 229 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:05,560 adapted uh relationships with 230 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:08,399 individuals and it's a little bit more 231 00:10:05,560 --> 00:10:10,720 seamless when it gets to a point where 232 00:10:08,399 --> 00:10:12,240 we have not been able to fill so it 233 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,680 depends on the timeline if we know about 234 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:15,079 a maternity leave and we have three 235 00:10:13,680 --> 00:10:18,399 months that's a different window than if 236 00:10:15,079 --> 00:10:21,040 we know tomorrow then for hard to fill 237 00:10:18,399 --> 00:10:22,560 positions we will utilize swing next we 238 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:27,240 haven't started with scoot yet so this 239 00:10:22,560 --> 00:10:30,560 will be brand new um and Scoot also does 240 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:32,200 more of a pool of classif ified staff as 241 00:10:30,560 --> 00:10:33,880 well they have teachers and they 242 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,839 actually have a grow your own program 243 00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:38,920 too which we're entertaining and 244 00:10:35,839 --> 00:10:40,880 learning about um where a person would 245 00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:42,880 essentially be like a guest teacher for 246 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:45,959 a year and then move into an intern 247 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:47,480 program so that's really new for them 248 00:10:45,959 --> 00:10:49,680 we're starting out with a sub piece 249 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:53,320 first but we can move into that area and 250 00:10:49,680 --> 00:10:55,480 that's theou talks about that so so 251 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:57,360 scoot would then also be another group 252 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:59,480 that we look for for our classified 253 00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:02,279 staff which historically is really not 254 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:06,440 happened we this year have had librarian 255 00:11:02,279 --> 00:11:08,959 substitutes and an office and Paras but 256 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:11,079 other types of classified roles really 257 00:11:08,959 --> 00:11:14,040 haven't been part of our subpool we 258 00:11:11,079 --> 00:11:15,760 essentially manage um until the person 259 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:17,760 returns unless it's a long-term 260 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:19,279 situation that's a little different so 261 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:22,279 to answer your question there are 262 00:11:19,279 --> 00:11:25,000 multiple Pathways it just depends on the 263 00:11:22,279 --> 00:11:29,720 circumstances um what's nice about the 264 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:32,639 swing Subs is that they um pick up our 265 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:34,839 hard to fill positions quickly so we 266 00:11:32,639 --> 00:11:37,000 still do reach out to our Standard Group 267 00:11:34,839 --> 00:11:40,360 but within 48 hours if something's not 268 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:42,399 filled we want it filled within 24 hours 269 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:44,959 of the person having the absence at 270 00:11:42,399 --> 00:11:47,079 least so that's been you know our 271 00:11:44,959 --> 00:11:49,600 aggressive timelines we've been working 272 00:11:47,079 --> 00:11:52,040 with and what are the level of like 273 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:54,279 qualifications or certifications that 274 00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:55,839 the teachers that we get from swing you 275 00:11:54,279 --> 00:11:58,720 know compared to a teacher that we would 276 00:11:55,839 --> 00:12:01,160 hire for the district exactly the same 277 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:03,160 thank 278 00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:05,279 MH well thanks for answering my 279 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:07,560 questions about how swing was effective 280 00:12:05,279 --> 00:12:10,480 I remember when we had approved it um 281 00:12:07,560 --> 00:12:13,839 like 2021 I think and then uh you know 282 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:15,519 doing it again now um and then the you 283 00:12:13,839 --> 00:12:17,240 know at the time it was sort of pushing 284 00:12:15,519 --> 00:12:18,800 like hey this is new and a new kind of 285 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:20,760 platform and it's it's neat to see that 286 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:22,279 we're continuing to push how we can 287 00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:24,519 creatively think outside the box for 288 00:12:22,279 --> 00:12:26,000 filling these positions with this grant 289 00:12:24,519 --> 00:12:28,800 um and how that sort of gives Priority 290 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:30,839 Access to Sam to you know substitutes 291 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:32,160 that are in area um so it' be it' be 292 00:12:30,839 --> 00:12:34,639 neat to see how that works for filling 293 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:36,880 these positions so thanks no I agree um 294 00:12:34,639 --> 00:12:38,959 and just one more item to add what's 295 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:41,600 interesting is the buyout rate for a 296 00:12:38,959 --> 00:12:45,000 swing substitute to start on the teacher 297 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:46,800 pipeline pathway is relatively small so 298 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:49,839 I just was speaking to somebody this 299 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:51,519 morning um who went to our new teacher 300 00:12:49,839 --> 00:12:52,800 orientation because she's starting off 301 00:12:51,519 --> 00:12:56,040 in a classroom for an international 302 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:58,639 teacher that is going to be delayed and 303 00:12:56,040 --> 00:13:01,120 uh she she just was so excited about all 304 00:12:58,639 --> 00:13:03,399 the district had to offer and that would 305 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:05,480 and and so we're starting the pipeline 306 00:13:03,399 --> 00:13:08,120 process with her and that's one great 307 00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:10,959 example of how we are are looking at 308 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:13,199 different ways to um to look at the 309 00:13:10,959 --> 00:13:14,160 shortage differently yeah sounds like a 310 00:13:13,199 --> 00:13:15,560 great way to start building a 311 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:17,519 relationship at the very very top of the 312 00:13:15,560 --> 00:13:19,320 funnel um before they've even decided 313 00:13:17,519 --> 00:13:22,040 that they want to become a teacher so 314 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:23,760 that's great yeah it's good fantastic um 315 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:25,360 I'm curious what are some things that we 316 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:27,040 do maybe as a district to make sure that 317 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:28,399 the handoff is smooth like if let's say 318 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:30,440 a teacher is going to be out of town for 319 00:13:28,399 --> 00:13:33,079 a week and we want to make sure that uh 320 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:35,560 things continue smoothly in the in the 321 00:13:33,079 --> 00:13:37,399 uh class with continuing on with the 322 00:13:35,560 --> 00:13:39,279 curriculum that's there what what are 323 00:13:37,399 --> 00:13:40,800 some ways that we we hand that off to 324 00:13:39,279 --> 00:13:43,800 the sub and then hand it back to the 325 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:45,880 teacher as they come back in yes so for 326 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:47,399 the swing substitutes they have thorough 327 00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:49,560 trainings through swing because that's 328 00:13:47,399 --> 00:13:51,519 what they're doing all day every day we 329 00:13:49,560 --> 00:13:53,880 just finished our substitute trainings 330 00:13:51,519 --> 00:13:57,600 through Nicole Crawford for rcsd 331 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:59,279 substitutes um and so that's sort of a 332 00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:02,720 generalized training to start off the 333 00:13:59,279 --> 00:14:05,199 year but then the teachers upload their 334 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:07,399 lesson plans and their Bell schedules 335 00:14:05,199 --> 00:14:09,839 and their class lists and so forth to a 336 00:14:07,399 --> 00:14:11,360 private platform for that handoff and 337 00:14:09,839 --> 00:14:13,120 then the office manager greets the 338 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:15,079 substitute and carries them through the 339 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:17,519 day essentially with the principal 340 00:14:15,079 --> 00:14:19,040 check-ins um for those that were going 341 00:14:17,519 --> 00:14:21,240 to be in long-term positions meet with 342 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:23,279 the staff development team uh to get 343 00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:25,000 caught up and to assist and then of 344 00:14:23,279 --> 00:14:29,519 course our special ed Department Jude 345 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:30,600 noise has created a whole module uh for 346 00:14:29,519 --> 00:14:33,959 people that will be in the class 347 00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:36,160 temporarily so so great I I remember 348 00:14:33,959 --> 00:14:37,959 when I was a kid and whenever the 349 00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:39,800 teacher was out a sub would come in and 350 00:14:37,959 --> 00:14:42,199 just like play a movie for us it was 351 00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:43,600 just great and so just I I think it's 352 00:14:42,199 --> 00:14:45,600 great that we have really highly 353 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:47,480 qualified substitute teachers coming in 354 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:49,440 in a handoff plan that's thoughtful for 355 00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:51,519 making sure that we're continuing to 356 00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:53,320 deliver curriculum to kids yes and 357 00:14:51,519 --> 00:14:56,360 that's a really good point because we 358 00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:58,399 want it to be continuous um or else the 359 00:14:56,360 --> 00:15:00,519 teacher also gets frustrated about being 360 00:14:58,399 --> 00:15:03,480 out and recognizing the the delays and 361 00:15:00,519 --> 00:15:06,040 so forth so uh for our current Subs in 362 00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:10,639 Redwood City um outside of swing and 363 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:12,199 Scoot um we we really have I I think a 364 00:15:10,639 --> 00:15:13,959 nice comprehensive handoff and the 365 00:15:12,199 --> 00:15:15,720 relationships I mean we have teachers 366 00:15:13,959 --> 00:15:17,680 emailing and calling the substitutes 367 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:19,399 that are frequent or schools that build 368 00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:21,720 up these relationships and so there's 369 00:15:19,399 --> 00:15:24,240 sort of there's a whole favorite system 370 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:26,920 on on our Frontline platform that that 371 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:28,360 people utilize um for you know to help 372 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:29,720 with that and for those people that are 373 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:32,240 going to be out for long period of time 374 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:35,000 we also provide some crossover time with 375 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:36,639 the teachers on maternity lead so forth 376 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:38,920 so they're in the classroom together 377 00:15:36,639 --> 00:15:40,720 before the teacher leaves and it's a yes 378 00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:45,600 really soft hand off and Stu like kid 379 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:45,600 yeah either before and after yeah 380 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:52,079 yes I know teacher been with me for 381 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:54,519 months there's yeah it's true so we're 382 00:15:52,079 --> 00:15:56,160 always growing in learning and always 383 00:15:54,519 --> 00:15:58,600 interested in new ideas on how to do 384 00:15:56,160 --> 00:16:00,639 this because we have all this great work 385 00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:02,560 we want do in general aside from sick 386 00:16:00,639 --> 00:16:04,639 days and and personal days for our 387 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:07,199 planning days and we need there to be 388 00:16:04,639 --> 00:16:10,279 consistency so so Wendy I just want to 389 00:16:07,199 --> 00:16:13,600 say thank you very much because you know 390 00:16:10,279 --> 00:16:15,319 going back 17 years ago 15 years we 391 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:16,959 didn't have any of this and I remember 392 00:16:15,319 --> 00:16:19,519 like upstairs you know you'd have 393 00:16:16,959 --> 00:16:20,600 somebody making frantic phone calls and 394 00:16:19,519 --> 00:16:22,639 all of this and I know you've really 395 00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:24,000 sought out these different platforms and 396 00:16:22,639 --> 00:16:25,560 stuff so thank you for doing that I 397 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:27,000 think it really makes a difference 398 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:28,680 because for the last couple years we 399 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:30,319 haven't heard from as many you know 400 00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:32,839 remember we were hearing from school 401 00:16:30,319 --> 00:16:34,279 sites that oh my good we we can't find 402 00:16:32,839 --> 00:16:35,880 any subs or you know we'd hear 403 00:16:34,279 --> 00:16:38,279 complaints from parents or teachers or 404 00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:40,160 whomever so anyway I I haven't heard 405 00:16:38,279 --> 00:16:42,360 that certainly

easier to digest for the 639 00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:26,399 students and then the dairy was done as 640 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:28,679 an ifp um as most of the dairy products 641 00:26:26,399 --> 00:26:31,559 are all relatively the same so as done 642 00:26:28,679 --> 00:26:34,600 just based on pricing and daylight Foods 643 00:26:31,559 --> 00:26:37,640 came out on top for that and uh we're 644 00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:37,640 excited to work with them as 645 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:42,720 well any 646 00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:50,840 questions questions first and then we'll 647 00:26:48,279 --> 00:26:52,600 take public comment and then 648 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:56,080 discussion there 649 00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:59,200 any so first off I I I really appreciate 650 00:26:56,080 --> 00:27:01,240 the sequencing that we used here of 651 00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:02,919 using a rubric for how we were going to 652 00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:05,679 go and evaluate these vendors we had 653 00:27:02,919 --> 00:27:07,679 multiple vendors apply in each we scored 654 00:27:05,679 --> 00:27:09,520 them and we we selected the best so I 655 00:27:07,679 --> 00:27:11,880 just think like that uh that's really 656 00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:14,320 good operational discipline and I I want 657 00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:17,279 to applaud that um kind of wish I could 658 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:19,320 have been on the bread tasting committee 659 00:27:17,279 --> 00:27:21,240 right I'm I'm glad they actually have 660 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:23,600 people try try stuff out so I think 661 00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:25,760 that's great um where there were like 662 00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:27,679 large vendors that maybe didn't apply do 663 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:30,240 we have any idea like why like uh you 664 00:27:27,679 --> 00:27:33,679 know uny United Natural Foods like 665 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:35,520 that's like Whole Food suppliers like um 666 00:27:33,679 --> 00:27:37,399 if there were other big companies like 667 00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:39,399 Cisco that might have applied but didn't 668 00:27:37,399 --> 00:27:42,000 do we do we have any signal on on why 669 00:27:39,399 --> 00:27:44,279 they didn't apply not directly but 670 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:46,240 that's a great question so a lot of 671 00:27:44,279 --> 00:27:48,679 these larger companies sometimes do not 672 00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:50,240 have a school specific division so with 673 00:27:48,679 --> 00:27:53,159 the ones that did apply have a very 674 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:56,399 school specific division that that 675 00:27:53,159 --> 00:27:58,480 manages that type of of accounts so as 676 00:27:56,399 --> 00:28:00,440 schools they know operate very 677 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:02,320 differently than some of your um 678 00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:04,279 restaurants and things as Cisco and 679 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:06,720 Goldstar would service restaurants in 680 00:28:04,279 --> 00:28:08,519 the area and hotels um they can also 681 00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:09,919 have a division that helps support and 682 00:28:08,519 --> 00:28:11,760 recognize what's needed for school 683 00:28:09,919 --> 00:28:13,799 districts so some of those might have 684 00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:15,440 the ability to but they they might not 685 00:28:13,799 --> 00:28:18,120 might not be as a high of a priority for 686 00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:19,919 them fa and and I I love The Stance as 687 00:28:18,120 --> 00:28:21,640 well of like trying to get regular fresh 688 00:28:19,919 --> 00:28:23,120 deliveries versus just like bulk 689 00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:25,519 delivery and Chuck it in the freezer I 690 00:28:23,120 --> 00:28:27,640 think that's fantastic um it does imply 691 00:28:25,519 --> 00:28:29,360 that maybe there's some uh fragility in 692 00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:31,320 terms of supply chain because like if we 693 00:28:29,360 --> 00:28:33,399 need regular de deliveries and then 694 00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:35,919 regular delivery doesn't show up do we 695 00:28:33,399 --> 00:28:37,840 have a sense for like a plan B um for 696 00:28:35,919 --> 00:28:40,720 what what we do how we handle it if Like 697 00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:42,440 A supplier is temporarily unavailable 698 00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:44,600 absolutely U and and you got to stay 699 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:45,960 Nimble in this side of the world um 700 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:48,320 having been in a previous School 701 00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:50,919 District during the pandemic we never 702 00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:53,720 use the the term supply chain issue 703 00:28:50,919 --> 00:28:55,440 shortage once um partnering with your 704 00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:57,279 vendors again being having them be an 705 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:59,679 extension of us and we set out what we 706 00:28:57,279 --> 00:29:01,559 need and we'll also always have backups 707 00:28:59,679 --> 00:29:03,320 for what we need as well um staying 708 00:29:01,559 --> 00:29:05,240 within our purchase threshold so we do 709 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:08,640 have backups for these as well but these 710 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:10,760 are going to be our primary awesome um 711 00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:13,120 in in terms of safety I noticed we 712 00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:15,640 selected the bonami Baking Company of 713 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:19,840 pit Pittsburgh uh and it looks like the 714 00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:20,919 FDA issued them a warning letter in 2022 715 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:24,120 um was that resolved to your 716 00:29:20,919 -->

quality um and 782 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:08,919 we needed to be able to get that into 783 00:32:07,519 --> 00:32:10,919 the scorecard so I really appreciated 784 00:32:08,919 --> 00:32:13,440 seeing

what's transpired you know 887 00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:55,680 since the end of April um shouldn't be 888 00:35:52,839 --> 00:35:57,079 understated right um as mentioned we've 889 00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:59,400 had a long-standing relationship with a 890 00:35:57,079 --> 00:36:02,359 vendor M uh we brought in a very 891 00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:04,960 qualified candidate to lead the ship so 892 00:36:02,359 --> 00:36:07,040 to speak of CNS uh and he's been able to 893 00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:10,319 go in there uh and make immediate 894 00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:11,720 changes uh as well as one thing that we 895 00:36:10,319 --> 00:36:13,359 didn't talk about tonight but we will at 896 00:36:11,720 --> 00:36:19,040 a future presentation after the school 897 00:36:13,359 --> 00:36:23,680 year starts just the uh increase in 898 00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:26,440 um staff morale I think even uh has been 899 00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:29,319 already witnessed right with them having 900 00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:31,079 uh ownership and being able to assist 901 00:36:29,319 --> 00:36:32,800 with maybe not making the final decision 902 00:36:31,079 --> 00:36:35,119 but putting input into the decisions 903 00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:36,599 that are happening in the kitchens uh 904 00:36:35,119 --> 00:36:38,520 one thing that we also didn't talk about 905 00:36:36,599 --> 00:36:40,680 tonight uh you know Richie took a couple 906 00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:42,319 of Staff members to Culinary Institute 907 00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:44,720 of America this summer for some training 908 00:36:42,319 --> 00:36:46,720 you may have seen some of the pictures 909 00:36:44,720 --> 00:36:48,599 uh but that brought a new level of 910 00:36:46,720 --> 00:36:50,520 ownership in with that department as 911 00:36:48,599 --> 00:36:52,040 well and that spread even with the 912 00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:53,640 members who weren't able to go or 913 00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:55,920 weren't selected to go at that point in 914 00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:58,000 time right so a lot of good things are 915 00:36:55,920 --> 00:37:01,520 happening um and this is is just the 916 00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:03,640 first step right so uh you know having 917 00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:06,280 our own food contracts now rather than 918 00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:07,960 going to one vendor and saying hey we 919 00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:10,960 need all of this and then they pull it 920 00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:13,599 from their resources right so now we are 921 00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:15,720 uh the next the next person in line that 922 00:37:13,599 --> 00:37:18,079 has to hold them accountable as which 923 00:37:15,720 --> 00:37:20,119 you mentioned in the presentation uh so 924 00:37:18,079 --> 00:37:22,319 that's really exciting uh so a lot of 925 00:37:20,119 --> 00:37:24,680 good things are happening uh and as I 926 00:37:22,319 --> 00:37:26,119 said after we get through you know a 927 00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:29,000 month or two a school we'll come back 928 00:37:26,119 --> 00:37:30,960 with kind of uh philosophical and 929 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:34,079 visioning and where we're at now and 930 00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:35,720 where we'll be uh in the future uh but 931 00:37:34,079 --> 00:37:37,400 changes will be small at first and maybe 932 00:37:35,720 --> 00:37:39,520 higher quality product but some things 933 00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:41,560 will look similar when we first start 934 00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:44,400 the school year right staff hasn't been 935 00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:46,200 here all summer uh so he's gaining back 936 00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:48,640 all of his staff over the next couple of 937 00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:50,599 days uh and then moving forward with 938 00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:52,280
