1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,100
To announce that the meeting is being recorded. And I will open the meeting with a roll call vote.

2
00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:11,300
Oh, sorry, Jody. Are you trained?

3
00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:25,400
All right. All right. I'll just ask for everyone to say that they're here. Tara here.

4
00:00:30,270 --> 00:00:35,970
Sorry, I was muted. Welcome. No worries. Jody. Well, you're muted.

5
00:00:41,290 --> 00:00:42,630
At the bottom of your screen.

6
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:49,900
I'll go on to crystal. Come back to you, Jody.

7
00:00:49,900 --> 00:00:53,160
Sorry, I'm going to have to have both of these.

8
00:00:53,820 --> 00:00:54,420
I'm here.

9
00:00:55,260 --> 00:00:55,680
Okay.

10
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:56,660
And Crystal?

11
00:00:57,300 --> 00:00:57,640
Here.

12
00:00:58,520 --> 00:00:59,040
Jessica?

13
00:01:00,820 --> 00:01:02,440
I don't think she's here.

14
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:02,880
Okay.

15
00:01:03,940 --> 00:01:04,240
All right.

16
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:10,420
Our first agenda item is to vote a new budget amount.

17
00:01:11,660 --> 00:01:13,140
I can read it.

18
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:17,100
And if someone just wants to say so moved to,

19
00:01:17,100 --> 00:01:26,660
or so we can have it presented and then you know make a motion you can say so

20
00:01:26,660 --> 00:01:30,500
moved and then someone can second and then we can vote on it but I have the

21
00:01:30,500 --> 00:01:37,200
wording right in front me so I'm happy to read it or move that the Halifax School

22
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:46,600
Committee approves 7,732,438 dollars as the fiscal 2027 local educating budget

23
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:55,200
operating budget, and further that the total appropriation of $7,732,438 is in compliance

24
00:01:55,200 --> 00:02:01,820
with Education Reform Acts of 1993. Further, the school committee directs a superintendent

25
00:02:01,820 --> 00:02:09,400
to allocate the following additional funding sources, which total $424,616.

26
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:18,960
dollars. Fiscal FY27, anticipated circuit breaker, special education reimbursement of $324,616

27
00:02:19,260 --> 00:02:27,620
and anticipated FY27 grant and revolving account funding totaling $100,000. The final

28
00:02:27,620 --> 00:02:35,020
approved expenditures for the schools will be $8,057,000. $57,054.

29
00:02:35,020 --> 00:02:35,540
dollars.

30
00:02:44,540 --> 00:02:50,440
Sorry, that's me. I think we have to move it first to someone kid. All right,

31
00:02:50,580 --> 00:02:58,520
I guess I made the motion. Okay. So, Jody seconded. Oh, Stephanie. Sorry about that. So,

32
00:03:01,060 --> 00:03:13,340
what was voted the additional 200,000 plus the offsets, I apologize, is 8,157,000,

33
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:25,560
$5.54. Not $8.057. It's $8.157. Okay. I will amend the emotion. The motion.

34
00:03:25,780 --> 00:03:27,320
Wait. Oh, yeah.

35
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,360
When we just triple check those numbers, I still don't know if that's right.

36
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:40,540
Yeah. So it's $7 million. The proposed total appropriation is $7,732,438. Correct? Correct?

37
00:03:40,540 --> 00:03:52,900
Yes. Can I watch? We need to add the circuit breaker and grants, correct? And that was 426,000, 416.

38
00:03:55,650 --> 00:04:00,010
I think that's 8,158,854.

39
00:04:00,930 --> 00:04:03,430
Yeah, so that's the...

40
00:04:04,870 --> 00:04:12,790
That that's what I'm saying so she doesn't vote in like the wrong total appropriation for the school year.

41
00:04:13,470 --> 00:04:16,970
Okay. Should we should we should we should we we sat and we do.

42
00:04:18,150 --> 00:04:20,650
Yeah. Okay. All

43
00:04:22,820 --> 00:04:23,040
right.

44
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:24,680
I can start over.

45
00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:33,340
Move I make a motion to move that the Halifax School Committee approved seven million seven hundred thirty two thousand.

46
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:41,520
$438 as the fiscal 2027 local education budget operating budget and further that the total

47
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:51,520
appropriation of $7,732,438 is in compliance with Education Reform Acts in 1993. Further

48
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:55,300
the school committee directs the superintendent to allocate the following additional funding

49
00:04:55,300 --> 00:05:04,540
sources which total $424,616, FY anticipated circuit breakers,

50
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:12,920
special education reimbursement, $324,616, and anticipated FY27 grants

51
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,560
and revolving account funding totaling $100,000.

52
00:05:16,140 --> 00:05:23,380
The final approved expenditures for the school will be $8,157,554,

53
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:25,380
54 dollars.

54
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:33,900
So maybe a second or we can second because I made the motion.

55
00:05:34,220 --> 00:05:41,100
Okay. Second. Thanks Tara. All right we'll do roll call vote. Tara. Yes.

56
00:05:41,900 --> 00:05:42,280
Jody.

57
00:05:52,510 --> 00:06:00,690
Is Jody still here? I'm sure she's still here. Crystal? Yes. Okay.

58
00:06:03,190 --> 00:06:03,930
I know Jody's having

59
00:06:03,930 --> 00:06:04,730
troll alert sound.

60
00:06:07,700 --> 00:06:08,800
Oh, you're muted, Jody.

61
00:06:13,230 --> 00:06:16,470
Okay, can you hear me now? Yep. Sorry, I had

62
00:06:16,470 --> 00:06:23,330
to allow my microphone. Yeah, yeah, access. Yes. Okay, perfect. Okay. All right. Okay.

63
00:06:23,550 --> 00:06:33,510
So now that's great. We'll move on to the subcommittees. So we did assign some of them

64
00:06:33,510 --> 00:06:46,050
in our July meeting I believe. So now we have a few subcommittees to still fill. So we have the

65
00:06:46,050 --> 00:06:53,410
written policy committee which since there's a lot, we've had some new folks on here, the written

66
00:06:53,410 --> 00:07:01,490
policy committee helps with policies in the districts where if there is a change to any policies due

67
00:07:01,490 --> 00:07:06,550
to changes in laws or changes in decisions of how we need to handle things as a district,

68
00:07:07,150 --> 00:07:12,250
then the policy meeting would, policy committee would meet together and bring those policies

69
00:07:12,250 --> 00:07:17,550
back to our committee for us to vote on.

70
00:07:20,910 --> 00:07:24,730
And is anyone interested in being on policy committee?

71
00:07:24,870 --> 00:07:26,490
We would need two people.

72
00:07:29,170 --> 00:07:29,830
I'll do it.

73
00:07:29,830 --> 00:07:30,890
Okay.

74
00:07:31,010 --> 00:07:31,750
I'll take your review on again.

75
00:07:33,450 --> 00:07:34,410
Anyone else?

76
00:07:36,630 --> 00:07:37,730
I'll unmute this time.

77
00:07:38,530 --> 00:07:38,650
Okay.

78
00:07:38,810 --> 00:07:39,170
You can put me on there.

79
00:07:39,770 --> 00:07:39,950
Okay.

80
00:07:41,030 --> 00:07:47,790
And then the next committee is I have to be on negotiations because I am the chair.

81
00:07:48,330 --> 00:07:54,030
And so I need a second person because we need to have two members attend negotiations.

82
00:07:54,750 --> 00:07:56,530
And then we also need an alternate.

83
00:07:56,530 --> 00:07:56,730
it.

84
00:07:59,390 --> 00:08:06,610
I really want negotiations. Okay. If everybody else agrees, I don't know. I feel

85
00:08:06,610 --> 00:08:11,430
like I have, I just think my experience like with the things that I do for work would

86
00:08:11,430 --> 00:08:18,030
be really helpful. Yeah, I don't, that's fine. I'll put you as the second. Would anyone

87
00:08:18,030 --> 00:08:22,930
like to be alternate? So if I or Jodie are not available? I'm happy to be alternate for

88
00:08:22,930 --> 00:08:24,550
that. Tara okay.

89
00:08:26,670 --> 00:08:35,250
And then Union 31. So Union 31 is when we all the elementary schools meet

90
00:08:35,250 --> 00:08:41,670
together and it's often with the Silver Lake School Committee and it's just to make like decisions

91
00:08:41,670 --> 00:08:48,470
about contracts or shared costs and three of us need to be on that and I believe I need to be one

92
00:08:48,470 --> 00:08:49,050
of them, correct?

93
00:08:51,780 --> 00:08:57,240
So I can't remember, but I think I'll be on it. And then I would need

94
00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:04,580
two other volunteers. Lauren, if you want to put me on, I'll go with Crystal. Okay.

95
00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:21,020
I'm happy to as well. Are we taking any just page? Have any of these or these just the open ones that

96
00:09:30,230 --> 00:09:38,290
Yeah, and I took over signal single signature warrant, but I'll keep her on youth and rec. And we do have some other ones too.

97
00:09:41,070 --> 00:09:46,070
And we also need an alternate. So I'll put her down as the alternate for being in 31.

98
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:49,480
I can do it if you want.

99
00:09:51,020 --> 00:10:09,920
That's fine. I mean, just so we're giving Jessica some too because you know and then all right. So then we have admin review and admin review is when we do the evaluation of the superintendent.

100
00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:14,000
And so we need two people for that.

101
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:17,080
What? Can I ask a question about that?

102
00:10:17,860 --> 00:10:18,140
Sure.

103
00:10:18,660 --> 00:10:21,640
So I know, so we did, when we did the review,

104
00:10:22,060 --> 00:10:24,380
everybody filled out the questionnaire, right?

105
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:26,660
For Dr. Pru.

106
00:10:27,020 --> 00:10:30,400
So if everybody does it, what is specifically the people on the

107
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:33,000
admin review committee do in addition?

108
00:10:34,540 --> 00:10:35,120
Great question.

109
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:37,840
Yeah, I'll defer to Jill.

110
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:47,580
So prior to having the ability to get all of the data in one place, they used to compile

111
00:10:47,580 --> 00:10:47,880
it.

112
00:10:48,220 --> 00:10:54,400
But now with Google Forms, not only can I see the individual responses, but the committee

113
00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:57,920
can compile the responses and even summarize them more easily.

114
00:10:58,300 --> 00:11:03,020
So usually the chair is responsible for summarizing them, scheduling the meeting with me to go over

115
00:11:03,020 --> 00:11:04,480
those in open session.

116
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:12,260
And the other thing that we tend to do is if we are introducing new positions for shared

117
00:11:12,260 --> 00:11:16,720
cost, we tend to present those first to the administrative review committee.

118
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:22,720
That's just traditionally how it's been done before we bring it to the joint meeting to

119
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:26,520
see if we have the support of the administrative review team first.

120
00:11:30,050 --> 00:11:35,090
And then can I also ask when we, you know, to bring it to, for review in open session for

121
00:11:35,090 --> 00:11:41,330
your evaluations, is that done at our individual school meetings or at the Union 31 meeting?

122
00:11:42,610 --> 00:11:44,550
It's done at its own separate meeting.

123
00:11:45,150 --> 00:11:46,570
Okay. Understood. Thank you.

124
00:11:47,050 --> 00:11:48,530
With just the admin review team.

125
00:11:49,210 --> 00:11:49,710
I see.

126
00:11:50,130 --> 00:11:50,290
Okay.

127
00:11:51,170 --> 00:11:52,810
Sometimes it happens at the high school.

128
00:11:53,030 --> 00:11:54,470
Sometimes it happens at the middle school.

129
00:11:54,670 --> 00:11:56,230
Sometimes it happens at central office.

130
00:11:56,230 --> 00:11:58,990
It depends on the team and their preference.

131
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:03,420
Is this typically a certain time of year?

132
00:12:03,780 --> 00:12:05,280
Like a regular time of year?

133
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:11,720
or typically April May, so that we have time to get some data into the community about

134
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:12,760
the annual goals.

135
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:24,080
And in terms of presenting new positions for joint to consider, that usually happens

136
00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:30,340
around February, if not earlier, if we can, because we want to make sure that our joint session,

137
00:12:30,660 --> 00:12:36,640
we have a sense of what types of positions might have an impact on the assessments.

138
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:37,740
And

139
00:12:41,390 --> 00:12:47,410
so are we, if whoever's on the admin review for HES, is that part of the admin review

140
00:12:47,410 --> 00:12:52,210
also include members from the other elementary schools as well as?

141
00:12:52,450 --> 00:12:53,270
And Silver Lake.

142
00:12:53,730 --> 00:12:54,010
Okay.

143
00:12:54,450 --> 00:12:54,830
Thank you.

144
00:12:57,850 --> 00:13:04,010
It is nice when you get to work with the other school committees too, just to have cohesiveness.

145
00:13:04,470 --> 00:13:06,930
So would anybody be interested in admin review?

146
00:13:07,650 --> 00:13:10,010
I would need two folks, two people.

147
00:13:10,010 --> 00:13:11,830
I'll be happy too.

148
00:13:12,730 --> 00:13:12,970
Okay.

149
00:13:14,390 --> 00:13:15,590
Yeah, I can do it too.

150
00:13:16,350 --> 00:13:16,770
Okay.

151
00:13:19,630 --> 00:13:22,010
I want to make sure no one's signing up for too much.

152
00:13:22,690 --> 00:13:23,110
Yeah.

153
00:13:23,630 --> 00:13:24,330
I know.

154
00:13:24,530 --> 00:13:25,590
I don't want to sleep on.

155
00:13:25,710 --> 00:13:26,450
I don't even remember.

156
00:13:26,750 --> 00:13:27,150
I'm going to.

157
00:13:27,270 --> 00:13:28,190
Well, I will have to.

158
00:13:28,490 --> 00:13:28,570
Yeah.

159
00:13:28,730 --> 00:13:29,610
Because we already did something for you.

160
00:13:29,610 --> 00:13:30,550
I have you on.

161
00:13:30,910 --> 00:13:31,270
Tara.

162
00:13:31,630 --> 00:13:31,790
Yeah.

163
00:13:31,810 --> 00:13:33,210
I have you on sickly bank.

164
00:13:33,930 --> 00:13:34,050
Yep.

165
00:13:34,730 --> 00:13:36,750
And then the alternate for.

166
00:13:37,230 --> 00:13:38,430
And you're also the secretary.

167
00:13:39,210 --> 00:13:44,010
So, I think we're okay right now. I'm just more looking at Jody.

168
00:13:46,150 --> 00:13:49,650
You can take something away from me. That's fun. No, I just want to be helpful.

169
00:13:50,490 --> 00:13:56,350
No, I appreciate it. No. Yeah, I'll see. Well, now, and we have sickly bank,

170
00:13:56,610 --> 00:14:04,630
and I'll put Jessica down there after Tara, and then we'll need an alternate too. I'll put myself down.

171
00:14:06,090 --> 00:14:10,610
And then, so the last two, we'll actually be three.

172
00:14:11,390 --> 00:14:16,290
PTO LA is on, and then an alternate for youth and rec.

173
00:14:17,530 --> 00:14:24,510
And I don't, Jody, you were PTO last year, but I, and it was great,

174
00:14:24,630 --> 00:14:26,350
but I think feel like you sign up for a lot.

175
00:14:26,730 --> 00:14:31,410
And I would say it's, I like having someone on the PTO

176
00:14:31,410 --> 00:14:38,630
that has kids in the school, just because I think it's a good bridge, but I think all of you do.

177
00:14:39,150 --> 00:14:48,330
Except for me. So anyway, Crystal, do you mind doing that being our PTO liaison? Is that okay?

178
00:14:51,190 --> 00:14:56,250
All right. And I'll have Jess could be a backup for that. And then

179
00:14:56,250 --> 00:14:59,970
And if we do it wouldn't

180
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,040
Anyone like to be the alternate for youth and rec?

181
00:15:07,410 --> 00:15:20,750
I'm happy to do that unless crystal you want to. We can flip a coin. I'm good either way. The kids are on for it. So, yeah, all right. Oh, um, let's see. Just one two. I'm just trying to keep it pretty fair.

182
00:15:24,590 --> 00:15:36,670
I'll put, um, I'll put you down to her as the alternate and then actually crystal. Can I put you on capital budget? Okay. I know. I was like, actually, this works out.

183
00:15:36,670 --> 00:15:37,010
Okay.

184
00:15:39,270 --> 00:15:39,990
All right.

185
00:15:40,290 --> 00:15:43,690
I was going to say, can we nominate Crystal for capital law, but I nominate.

186
00:15:45,230 --> 00:15:48,510
You know, I was like, I paid attention when we were meeting, right?

187
00:15:50,910 --> 00:15:51,630
All right.

188
00:15:51,830 --> 00:15:53,430
So we have our organization.

189
00:15:53,570 --> 00:15:53,910
All right.

190
00:15:54,090 --> 00:15:55,150
I asked a question.

191
00:15:55,630 --> 00:15:55,910
Sure.

192
00:15:56,570 --> 00:15:59,430
Do you want an alternate for single signature warrant?

193
00:15:59,690 --> 00:16:00,030
I didn't know.

194
00:16:00,950 --> 00:16:01,990
What would you like to put one in?

195
00:16:02,190 --> 00:16:02,330
Yeah.

196
00:16:02,390 --> 00:16:03,050
That's a good idea.

197
00:16:03,050 --> 00:16:21,190
Yeah, so signals single signature warrant. I've been doing them online. So there's generally not a time. I'm not going to be able to do it, but I'll still it's still good to have an alternate. So basically just any warrant that only requires a signature of one member of school committee.

198
00:16:22,270 --> 00:16:26,210
I signed up for and I just need a backup for that.

199
00:16:27,010 --> 00:16:28,270
Do you want me to do it?

200
00:16:29,630 --> 00:16:30,130
Two said that.

201
00:16:31,590 --> 00:16:32,030
Crystal?

202
00:16:32,270 --> 00:16:32,590
Oh, yeah.

203
00:16:32,830 --> 00:16:33,130
I can battle.

204
00:16:34,110 --> 00:16:34,930
Thank you.

205
00:16:35,850 --> 00:16:36,430
All right.

206
00:16:37,250 --> 00:16:38,150
Thank you, Sue.

207
00:16:39,050 --> 00:16:39,570
Appreciate that.

208
00:16:39,750 --> 00:16:40,650
I just skipped over that.

209
00:16:41,630 --> 00:16:41,970
All right.

210
00:16:42,230 --> 00:16:45,670
So we are good for our re-organization.

211
00:16:48,110 --> 00:16:48,550
Jill?

212
00:16:50,350 --> 00:16:52,310
I believe Stephanie has her hand raised.

213
00:16:52,510 --> 00:16:54,330
I just want to make sure that I'm very Stephanie.

214
00:16:55,030 --> 00:16:55,450
Thank you.

215
00:16:55,450 --> 00:16:59,150
sorry about that so there's a warrant that's gonna go out tomorrow and I just

216
00:16:59,150 --> 00:17:04,430
want to make sure I have the right person is it is it still Jessica oh it's me

217
00:17:04,430 --> 00:17:12,370
now okay got it thank you and you're okay with signing it digitally and not I am okay

218
00:17:12,370 --> 00:17:15,970
with that thank you thank you okay

219
00:17:19,430 --> 00:17:22,530
thanks too all right yeah I appreciate that

220
00:17:23,030 --> 00:17:29,430
anything else? All right, I'll entertain a motion to adjourn.

221
00:17:34,420 --> 00:17:34,840
Maybe one like

222
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:40,160
direction to adjourn. Can I ask you a question before I move on? Sure. Can I ask

223
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:43,640
another question before you do that? So just with the additional money that we got

224
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:47,820
from the budget, right, that we just voted in for the updated budget, I wanted to

225
00:17:47,820 --> 00:17:51,940
ask what like how long do we have to wait until we get those job postings out

226
00:17:51,940 --> 00:17:57,640
there, and hopefully five people to fill those positions that we're hoping to use that

227
00:17:57,640 --> 00:17:58,140
money for.

228
00:17:59,160 --> 00:17:59,980
Go ahead, Jill.

229
00:18:02,410 --> 00:18:08,910
So we can post the positions as early as tomorrow, assuming that all of the information

230
00:18:08,910 --> 00:18:10,210
for the PAF is ready.

231
00:18:10,950 --> 00:18:13,430
But then it has to be posted for 10 days.

232
00:18:14,410 --> 00:18:22,110
And at the close of 10 days, then as selection can happen, the principal can actually start

233
00:18:22,110 --> 00:18:26,630
interviews prior to the closure of 10 days, but typically they like to wait to see all the applicants

234
00:18:26,630 --> 00:18:31,990
and then decide who they're going to call in for interviews based upon who it has the required

235
00:18:32,490 --> 00:18:32,930
credentials.

236
00:18:35,380 --> 00:18:39,960
Yeah, to build on that. I have those PAS ready to go for tomorrow morning

237
00:18:40,820 --> 00:18:46,260
for the positions that we're looking to fill for the teaching positions. And then just like Jill said,

238
00:18:46,380 --> 00:18:51,440
I'm also looking to build out a committee of teachers to do some for to be on the the hiring

239
00:18:51,440 --> 00:19:00,380
committees as well. And do you post specific grade level teachers or is it yeah so so we're so

240
00:19:00,380 --> 00:19:02,700
we're posting specifically for a second grade and sixth grade.

241
00:19:05,340 --> 00:19:07,840
We have a full 10 calendar or

242
00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:09,580
full business 10.

243
00:19:15,830 --> 00:19:23,710
But what do you think we're just I believe it's 10 calendar days. Thank you.

244
00:19:23,710 --> 00:19:32,660
And did the teachers come back to partake in those committees like given it summer break like unionish like issues or anything?

245
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:43,880
Um, no, so it's all volunteer so I've reached out to teachers already for, you know, to be on those committees as well as starting to break up classrooms into smaller classrooms.

246
00:19:44,140 --> 00:19:48,180
They're absolutely incredible and they're willing to do the work and I can't thank them enough.

247
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:54,680
And it is fairly customary for teachers to volunteer for search committees as well that

248
00:19:54,680 --> 00:20:01,220
happened in the past, so yeah I hired all summer yeah all last summer I was constantly

249
00:20:01,220 --> 00:20:06,560
hiring people and people were willing to come in and give their professional lives on

250
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:07,880
the people so it was great.

251
00:20:10,700 --> 00:20:17,500
It's great is there a way that we can after that search committee you know does that work

252
00:20:17,500 --> 00:20:21,620
that we can be notified of who those teachers were perhaps just to send them a

253
00:20:21,620 --> 00:20:27,800
thank you for volunteering their time. Yeah, that's typically what I do do. I usually you know

254
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:33,320
circle back with them, thank them for their time. And like and whoever we we move forward,

255
00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:37,000
they'll probably be in the communication to families to like who was on the hiring committee.

256
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:42,780
Oh, that's right. Yep, that's how you post that. You do, you do do that. I remember that now.

257
00:20:42,780 --> 00:20:50,240
So, if all goes well, we're potentially between the 17th and 24th, having new classes,

258
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:52,640
teachers, teachers, teachers who are signed to the signing.

259
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:53,560
Yes.

260
00:20:56,660 --> 00:20:56,800
Yeah.

261
00:20:58,300 --> 00:21:02,920
And family's notified and making sure things are as smooth as possible.

262
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:08,060
I know it's a big undertaking, but it's a great problem to have, being with the hired

263
00:21:08,060 --> 00:21:12,020
some people, and to make sure those class sizes are smaller.

264
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:20,590
And there's nothing in contracts or anything that requires us to, you know, look at previous,

265
00:21:20,730 --> 00:21:24,190
like HES teachers that will let go first, correct?

266
00:21:24,690 --> 00:21:25,930
This is a new post day.

267
00:21:26,610 --> 00:21:30,190
No, these are new postings based on the non-professional status piece.

268
00:21:31,050 --> 00:21:31,570
Perfect.

269
00:21:31,950 --> 00:21:32,070
Okay.

270
00:21:34,310 --> 00:21:34,570
Do?

271
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:38,360
Oh, you didn't answer that.

272
00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:39,580
Thank you.

273
00:21:39,700 --> 00:21:39,980
Okay.

274
00:21:40,180 --> 00:21:40,480
I got it.

275
00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:41,680
All right.

276
00:21:42,180 --> 00:21:43,240
Any other questions?

277
00:21:47,610 --> 00:21:51,810
I just want to end on a thank you for all the support from the community, from the school committee.

278
00:21:52,770 --> 00:21:55,170
Lauren from getting up there and talking, same with Jill.

279
00:21:56,270 --> 00:22:01,810
I just can't thank you enough for all the support from behind the school to make sure the kids get whatever they need.

280
00:22:01,910 --> 00:22:02,790
So thank you very much.

281
00:22:03,790 --> 00:22:04,510
Thank you.

282
00:22:07,330 --> 00:22:08,530
Thanks for being there too.

283
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:11,280
Anytime.

284
00:22:13,140 --> 00:22:13,360
All

285
00:22:16,810 --> 00:22:17,010
right.

286
00:22:17,670 --> 00:22:18,070
Okay.

287
00:22:18,590 --> 00:22:19,250
I'll enter.

288
00:22:19,570 --> 00:22:20,250
Oh, sorry.

289
00:22:20,290 --> 00:22:20,670
Go ahead Jill.

290
00:22:21,630 --> 00:22:33,570
I'm also going to thank Gordon Andrews. I see that he's on this call and it was his petition that brought this to the attention of the town and allowed us to make this happen. So thank you.

291
00:22:34,830 --> 00:22:36,030
Thank you Gordon.

292
00:22:36,410 --> 00:22:37,370
Thank you Gordon.

293
00:22:39,630 --> 00:22:40,470
Thanks Gordon.

294
00:22:40,890 --> 00:22:43,030
