[0:00] Okay. Good evening everyone. I'm going to call the September 17th Action Meeting to order. And I believe we are starting this evening with a video.

[0:17] The 2020 627 school year is off to an exciting and busy start. Across the North. Penn School District students and staff returned to classrooms ready for another year of learning activities and new opportunities. At North Penn High School, members of the class of 2027 began their final year together with Senior Sunrise Gathering before school to watch the sun come up, spend time with friends and celebrate the beginning of their senior year. Schools have also been conducting required emergency drills to help students and staff review important safety procedures. At North Penn High School, approximately 3000 students and 400 staff members participated in a full building evacuation drill. Students exited the building and moved to their assigned locations before returning safely to class. North Penn also welcomed Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro to North Wales Elementary School last week, where he signed act 20 into law. Fifth graders attended the ceremony before joining the governor for recess, where they played basketball, enjoyed the swings and shared the laws they would pass if they were governor for a day. Students throughout the district also observed Constitution Day, learning more about the documents signed on September 17th, 1787, and the rights and responsibilities of all American citizens. North Penn is proud to announce our first 40 award recipients of the 2020 627 school year. Jerry Moore, a teacher at North Elementary School, and Kari Wert, a special education paraprofessional at North Penn High School, were recognized for ensuring belonging. Roger Roach, head custodian at Hatfield Elementary School, was honored for exceeding expectations, while Mike Werner, a North Penn High School teacher and coach, was recognized for engaging community. Congratulations to all four recipients for exemplifying the four E's and what makes North Penn great. Meanwhile, construction continues at North Penn High School. The first floor of Cape Cod and the new administrative suite are now open as work moves forward on the next phase of the renovation. The old A pod looks nothing like the space. Generations of North Penn students and staff have known for over 55 years, and at the same time, the new A Pod Edition H pod connector are fully taking shape, offering a glimpse of the high school's future. The North Penn community will have an opportunity to leave its mark on the project Friday night. During the football game, students, staff and community members are invited to sign a steel beam that will become a permanent part of the renovated high school, a lasting symbol of this exciting chapter in North Penn's history. That's it for this September North Penn News update.

[2:48] Welcome to our regularly scheduled action meeting. This meeting is being videotaped for community cable channels and streamed live Individuals attending this meeting and intending to speak to the board, should be aware that they are being videotaped in order to meet the requirements of Pennsylvania Sunshine Law, it is necessary to record the names of all citizens who speak to the board during the meeting. To assure compliance with this requirement, it is essential that those planning to address the board state their name and municipality. Members of the audience will limit their questions and comments to three minutes. And now please stand for the Pledge of Allegiance to the flag of our country. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

[3:41] Okay. Good evening everyone. I'd like to welcome our new North Penn students, and glad you're here. And thank you for your coverage of this meeting. Um, we'll move on to the audience of citizens, and I'm grateful for the video that the disclaimer has already been read. But if anyone would like to make public comment, we just we invite you to the podium to state your name and municipality.

[4:03] Mr. Hartrampf.

[4:09] I didn't want to go first, but it's okay.

[4:13] Benjamin Hartrampf Lansdale, Montgomery County. Um, I just wanted to say, uh, great, great video for the Governor's Commission, which is great. Um, I just want to give a shout out to, um, Doctor Bauer. I can't believe you met the governor, was he? Nice.

[4:32] Finish your comments and then I'll respond.

[4:35] Listen, I gotta tell you, I love governors. I wanted to come, but I guess it's okay. But I just wanted to say that, um. I'm excited about our nonprofit. I'm excited about, um, uh, Banerjee one foundation. Um, I really hope this board can really help us with our foundation. And I'm very excited about being on the governor's commission. I was at City Hall last week announcing the program with the mayor doing the Eagles chant, and it was just a lot of fun. So I just wanted to say the highlights are probably being at City Hall and then being here. It feels like Christmas morning to me. So I have to say, watching school board meetings on YouTube videos, it reminds me of Christmas morning. So thank you.

[5:24] Thank you, Mr. Hartrampf. I will reply to your comments at the end of public comment. Okay.

[5:36] Jason Lanier Lansdale. Um, I wanted to talk again about something I've talked about a lot, which is regarding the proficiency and what we're doing about that. Uh, the, the 2026 numbers haven't come out, but when you look at the 2025 graph, and I'll try to let the audience see this. You can see the lines are going mostly in the wrong directions. 2015 we're at.

[6:02] Around 78% proficiency. And currently we're below 60% proficiency. And that's that's just algebra. Similar things are happening in literature, in biology. And it's been my contention that some of this has to do with with education, equity and trying to help people by allowing students to lowering the standards in order for them to pass. And it kind of bears out in the data. And there's been laws, federal laws, which have said we can't do race based sort of education processes now, but instead you've adopted a guidance policy.

[6:48] And this comes from the the 2020, The North Penn's 202627KK S6:

[8:40] Thank you, Mr. Lanier.

[8:41] Thank you, Doctor Bauer.

[8:42] Would you like to respond?

[8:46] Uh, yes. So the first public comment was from Mr. Hartrampf, and he asked about the experience of Governor Shapiro coming to North Penn. And I will admit for the second time that when sometimes when you have some guests ask to come to your school, it is a large lift for the school district. Right. Schedules need to be changed. Security needs to be adjusted. All kinds of planning and preparation from our communications team and so forth. So when we had a last minute request, I was, much to my chagrin, I acquiesced to Doctor Waters. I mean, to Governor Shapiro and and Doctor Waters was right. It was a wonderful experience for the kids. It was a wonderful experience for our school community. Um, he spent about two hours here in the North Penn School District with our students. Uh, what you saw on screen was really what happened. He played with kids, he shot hoops. He went on the swings, took pictures, signed autographs. He was a very gracious guest. So it was a great experience. I hope our students remember it forever. So Doctor Waters, that is the last time I will admit that.

[9:53] I'm just glad that we got that on tape.

[9:57] So Ben, when you get to spend some time with him, I think you will enjoy it. He's he's a great gentleman. Uh, regarding proficiency, um, on our tests, we are still waiting on the state numbers. We have some of our numbers. I am pleased to share that our PSA in math went up across the board. Our our algebra keystones went up. Uh, our English literature scores in on the Keystone exams also went up to the tune of about 11% over the last two years. So our gains have been really great the last couple of years. We are still waiting on biology, and there is some room for growth on our Ela scores at the elementary level. So, Mrs. Rudnick, I believe you had something you wanted to say.

[10:40] Yeah. Thank you, Doctor Bauer. I.

[10:45] I just I am curious from the statement by the by the speaker, about why there is any correlation between race based. I'm not sure. Maybe education is what he said and the proficiency scores. I have to say that I take particular disdain to that comment. As someone who is of a black race and has shown over years and years and years, that race has nothing to do with my abilities. I take significant, significant offense to those types of comments that attempts to correlate the proficiency in the same sentence as bringing up race. So if you want to make a better correlation, you know, be my guest. But I would ask that it is rude, it is untrue, and it is inappropriate to all that. It is inappropriate for you to keep coming to school board meetings, making comments like that. I never say anything. But today. Today it is my time.

[12:00] Today I am. It is my time. It is my time. It is my time. And you take your time all the time. It is my time and I am making my response to your statement. You always ask us to make a response and I make it my response that it is rude, it is inappropriate. It is untrue to continuously make references to race when you bring up proficiency. Thank you, Mr. Leonard.

[12:27] Thank you, Mrs. Rudnick. And to those in the audience, I apologize for the statements. I think having Mr. Hartrampf here is a reminder that we are we stand in a place where we want to accept. And everyone here belongs regardless of race, regardless of background. You belong here at North Penn and we never want comments to leave anyone feeling that they are not wanted. And I want to recognize that we do have members of our school personnel here in the audience. You are valued and you are wanted. When Mr. Hart, Mr. Hartrampf, thank you so much for coming. I want to just say you are a proud North Penn alum. We are very proud of you. You alluded to this, but I do want to make sure that the community knows he. When he was speaking about the commission, he. He has just been appointed to the Governor's Commission on Disability.

[13:22] So I'm very excited and and he also is repping his new foundation. So the logo on his shirt that he mentioned is a foundation that he has started. And we're very, very proud of the work that he is doing. But I also want to thank you for your video that that you that has to me, it's become viral that you did with the mayor of Philadelphia. We have a leader of a leader of our of a major city who some time ago made an error when she was spelling the word eagles. And you worked with her to spell it correctly. And there was just such a beautiful sign of humility and partnership. So that was an important leadership and life lesson for me in that video. And I think in light of the public comment and the things that have happened this evening, having that level of, of just and, and, and, and humility in leadership, I think you exemplify that, Mrs. Rudnick, and I appreciate that. Um, and, and Ben, thank you so much for that. Okay. Any other public comment or we'll move on with our agenda.

[14:30] Okay. Okay. Oh, yes. Please.

[14:39] Hi, my name is Scarlett Perez. I'm from Montgomery, Montgomery County.

[14:46] Montgomery elementary.

[14:47] Montgomery elementary. Hi. Uh, sixth grade. Hi.

[14:52] And, um, she's here tonight because she's working on her citizenship in the community badge. Um, so she's here, but she also is a student with disabilities in North Penn, and she's very appreciative of the support she receives from her teachers. Um, her support is with it as well as, um, reading for tests. So Scarlett is dyslexic. She reads at a first grade level and is in sixth grade. Um, but I just want to say that even though we may have an advocate and we work and we have our IEP meeting, Scarlett feels loved. Scarlett feels accepted. Scarlett is a minority, um, as well. Um, and I just want to say appreciate it. Okay. Let's go.

[15:36] Thank you. Scarlett. Scarlett and I had the privilege of speaking before the meeting, and we're going to have some follow up conversations. I love seeing this engagement and citizenship in action. Scarlett, welcome to our school board meeting. We're very happy to have you. Thank you. Mr. Resch, I think, wants to also.

[15:52] And know that I'm very dyslexic myself. My family is very dyslexic. My family is a family of engineers and educators. Uh, so there's hope for autistic people and dyslexic people in this community. Welcome.

[16:18] So someday there could be a seat at the table for you. Scarlett, is what he said. Okay. Okay. Wonderful. Um, any other public comment? Okay. Seeing none, we will move on to the approval of minutes of meeting minutes. Um, do I have a motion and a second to approve the minutes from our action meeting on August 20th. August 20th, 2026 and from our work session on September 1st.

[16:43] So moved.

[16:44] Second.

[16:45] Motion by Mrs. Rudnik. Seconded by Mr. Kaiser.

[16:52] Any comments or questions? S1:

[17:34] Uh, There's no. We did not meet since our last meeting. So we meet next next Wednesday. So we'll update you at our next meeting.

[17:42] Perfect. Thank you so much. We'll move on to the Montgomery County Intermediate Unit. Mrs. Cohen.

[17:48] Hi. Thank you. Um, the MCU met last on August 26th. Um, last month, there were three ad hoc committees formed. Um, there were multiple policies passed as well as the strategic goals for each department was shared. Um, there's quite a few open positions, which is normal for this time of the year. And they're developing a internal connect site to streamline all the professional learning and redesigning the MCU website for improved accessibility. They're also working on a pipeline for the paraprofessional teachers with the deaf. The next meeting is September 23rd, and that's the end of my report.

[18:32] Thank you so much. The North Penn Educational Foundation. I'll read that report. The foundation met virtually in August and welcomed all three of our new student representatives sophomore Daniela Luna Gofredo and Wes Peterson and Junior Quinlin Duke. We are very excited and grateful for their involvement. The foundation also greeted new teachers at its annual water icebreaker in August, where we talked about the foundation and the grant process. Thank you to Rita's of Lansdale for donating the water ice once again this year. Trustees are currently busy working on on the 25th golf outing, which will be held on Tuesday, October 6th at Tullamore. There is still room for golfers and sports sponsors if anyone is interested and for more information on the Educational Foundation, please contact Kristine Borowski at the ESC or visit foundation.org. Legislative.

[19:29] Thank you, Mrs. Ramos. We have no report this evening besides to say. have a very happy and thoughtful Constitution Day.

[19:36] So perfect for you to remind us of that. Thank you, Mr. McVeigh. So moving on to the solicitors report.

[19:44] Thank you, Madam President. My report tonight is just to announce that the board did meet in executive session immediately prior to tonight's meeting for the purpose of discussing matters of personnel involving professional employees of the district, as well as a confidential student matter. And that concludes my report.

[19:59] Thank you. The superintendent's report.

[20:02] Good evening, president and other board directors. First, I recommend the items on the consent agenda. That includes the adoption of policies for a first read, a notice of repeal of policies, contracts, gifts to the district, student travel and student agreements.

[20:19] Okay. Thank you. Do I have a motion and a second to approve the items listed on the consent agenda? Motion by Mrs. Coin, seconded by Mr. Bell. Any comments or questions? Seeing none. All those in favor, say aye. Any opposed? Motion carries.

[20:39] Okay. Next. Moving on to the non consent items. I recommend the personnel items as per the attached.

[20:45] Do I have a motion and a second for the personnel agenda.

[20:49] So moved.

[20:49] Motion by Mr. Resch.

[20:51] Second.

[20:52] Seconded by Mr. McBain.

[20:57] Any comments or questions? S1:

[21:03] Thank you. Next, I recommend approval of the esteemed Jaden D waters for the position of substitute teacher or substitute assistant in the North Penn School District, effective September 14th, 2026. If I can have a motion and a second, I'll provide some commentary.

[21:20] Second.

[21:21] Motion by Mr. Bell, seconded by Mr. Chiba.

[21:24] So just for some of our newer board directors, I'm not sure any of these have come forward. Maybe they have, but are. We do have, like most school districts, a nepotism policy. And if certain positions of leadership or board directors. If family members of yours are hired by the school district, they need to be called out separately just for transparency purposes. So everyone knows. Please know that for any of you, if you have relatives who would like to be substitute teachers or substitute assistants, we would welcome them. So this is Doctor Waters recently graduated college graduate. Jaden is her daughter. She is offering to substitute for us on occasion when she's not busy with her other jobs. So it gives me great pride in offering this recommendation. So.

[22:07] Okay, great. Um, we have a motion and a second. Any comments or questions? Seeing none. All in favor, say aye. Any opposed? Motion carries.

[22:20] All right.

[22:20] Next, I recommend approval of the appointment of Whistler Pearlstein LLP as a district solicitor for a term of five years, effective immediately in accordance with the terms of their engagement letter, a copy of which is on file in the office of the Chief Financial Officer.

[22:36] Do I have a motion and a second.

[22:38] So moved. Second.

[22:40] Motion by Mr. Resch, seconded by Mrs. Rudnick.

[22:45] Any comments or questions? S5:

[23:19] Great.

[23:19] Thank you. Any additional comments or questions? Seeing none. All in favor, say yes.

[23:26] We went. Could you explain the process we went through to choose the new legal firm?

[23:32] Absolutely. Mr. Resch, so we do have a professional services policy here in North Penn. I'm not sure that all school districts have that, but one of the services that is explicitly called out in there is legal services. So every five years it says that every five years we need to go through an RFP process. RFP stands for request for proposal. Um, this was actually four years and we just thought it was time to because it says at least every five years. So at the four year mark, we initiated the process. We put an RFP out there. We had several firms respond. We finalized that down to three for interviews. We had some board directors and cabinet level administrators in those interviews. And after a very thorough paper process and interview process and presentation process, we settled on Whistler.

[24:16] Thank you.

[24:17] You're welcome, Mr. Resch.

[24:18] And do you want to thank the firms for applying? We really do appreciate their time and effort. Okay. All in favor, say aye. Any opposed? Motion carries.

[24:29] And if I could just real quickly. Madam president, I would just like to thank the board and the administration for the appointment. Certainly on behalf of our firm, it is appreciated. Um, personally, it's always a it has always been a great honor to represent the school district that I graduated from. Uh, and certainly it's not only an honor, but I certainly take it seriously. Um, anything that I can do to try and help ensure that current and future students receive the same opportunities that I did. I certainly view my time at North Penn as having been a major factor in setting a great foundation for the future, uh, education that I received in my career. So anything that can be done to help ensure that that's the case for all of our current and future students. I certainly want to do that and make sure that that happens. So much appreciated. Thank you.

[25:17] And clearly this is call out and thank the alumni. So I'd like to thank you. And as an alum. So. Mr.. You're in good company with Mr. Hartrampf, so thank you.

[25:26] All right. Next, I recommend approval to advertise for bids for 2627 spring athletics.

[25:33] Do I have a motion? And a second.

[25:36] So moved. Second.

[25:38] Motion by Mrs. Rudnik, seconded by Mr. Kaiser.

[25:43] Any comments or questions? S5:

[25:46] Go out for a bit.

[25:48] All those in favor, say aye. Any opposed? Motion carries.

[25:53] Okay. We now have entered the. There should be another title. The Bill slaughter area of the agenda. Um, if it's okay with you, Madam President. I'll bundle up all these change orders together. So we're talking about seven E through H change orders one, two, eight and five. None of which add to the overall budget all within contingency funds and all of which were reviewed in the committee meeting.

[26:21] In great detail. And there's a great video for that. So do I have a motion and a second to approve items? Seven E through seven H motion by Mr. Bell, seconded by Mr. Kiser.

[26:39] Any comments or questions? S1:

[26:42] Just a quick.

[26:43] Commendation to.

[26:45] Get the schools ready on time to welcome kids back was a Herculean effort. So thank you to your team and to the entire work group for making that possible.

[26:54] Thank you.

[26:56] Okay. Um, do I have a motion? I'm sorry, I have a motion a second. All in favor, say aye. Any opposed? Motion carries. Thank you, Mr. Slaughter.

[27:05] All right. Next, I recommend approval to enter into a professional services contract agreement with Cmta for the design, construction, administration and commissioning services for the Hvac, Hvac and chiller plant replacement projects at North Wales and York Avenue. Avenue elementary schools in the amount of $196,911.

[27:28] Thank you. Do I have a motion for item seven? I professional service contract to CMTA motion by Mr. MacBain, seconded by Mr. Bell. Any comments or questions? See. Yes.

[27:44] Just for. For my own edification, if the information is available. Obviously I did not read it, I apologize.

[27:58] Um, but were these changes for North Wales and York Ave part of the long term plan, or is it because it came up as a need? S3:

[27:59] Were certainly certainly capital improvement projects that are on the capital needs list. Um, we did, uh, several repairs at both schools last year and we continue to have failures and additional repairs. So we felt at this time it was, it would be good to pull the band aid off and just do a full replacement for these units. This is part of the grant that we asked to apply for that the board so graciously gave us permission for. So hopefully when the grant comes in, that helps with the offset. A lot of the costs out of the capital needs.

[28:32] I appreciate the efforts to keep it running and making the decision to to do it.

[28:38] Great. Thank you. All in favor, say aye. Any opposed? Motion carries.

[28:46] Thank you, Mister Slaughter. Next, I recommend approval of the stipulation concerning 986 70 Town Realty LLC, which is parcel number 56000859900-3.

[28:58] Uh, total taxes due to the district in this matter are $12,577.26.

[29:06] Do I have a motion to approve the assessment appeal settlement motion by Mr. Kaiser, seconded by missus. Coin. Any comments or questions? Seeing none. All those in favor, say aye. Any opposed? Motion carries.

[29:25] And lastly, I recommend approval of the creation of a new bank account at Univest Bank for the purpose of mIRC escrow funds. If we can have a motion and a second. I'll provide some commentary.

[29:35] Do I have a motion?

[29:37] So moved.

[29:37] Motion by Mr. Mcbane, seconded by Mr. Kiser. And we'll stop for questions and comments.

[29:43] Yeah. So Mr. Summers may need to help me out here, but in general, um. So it is no secret. It has been well publicized in the school district and covered by our local media that there is a tax assessment appeal that we are currently working through with our neighbors at Merck. And because that has not been resolved and because real estate tax bills go out during the summer and are due over the summer, Merck is paying their taxes but under protest because we are currently in an appeal. Given the magnitude of the actual appeal when they are paying in protest. We have to escrow 25% of their taxes. So this creates an account to separate those funds and set them aside until we resolve the matter. So that's the reason for this motion. Um so we have a motion and a second.

[30:35] Any questions? S1:

[30:38] Aye.

[30:39] Any opposed? Any abstentions?

[30:44] I'm abstaining, I'm abstaining. I'm abstaining as and as as an employee of Merck.

[30:52] And just to be clear, um, Miss Shirley, it's within her prerogative to abstain. And she's doing so. But she's not required under the Ethics Act in this particular instance, because, um this particular vote would not have benefited her in any way, nor does it really benefit Merck, uh, in any way. So there's not a requirement under the Ethics Act to abstain, which means the procedures under the Ethics Act for submitting a memorandum explaining the abstention is not required in this instance. So I just wanted to note that for the minutes that certainly Miss Rennick has every right to abstain and has done so, but it was not a legally mandated abstention.

[31:31] Noted. And I appreciate the explanation. So thank you. Okay. We'll move on now to the finance report.

[31:38] Yes.

[31:39] So very pleased to introduce formally for the first time in public. No. Just kidding. Uh, Miss Mary White is our assistant business administrator. Uh, you recall that our last meeting was Miss Hauser's final meeting as our CFO. We do have an interim right now, Mr. Steve Skrocki, you probably also recall that we are having Mr.. Zachary Trump join us at the end of October. So in the meantime, Mr. Skrocki will be at some meetings, other meetings he cannot attend due to other commitments. But Miss Mary White is going to be doing the finance reports this evening. Good evening.

[32:10] Well, that was a wonderful introduction. Thank you, thank you. So I have some business office updates that I'd like to give you. The 2020 728 act one index was released earlier this month. The index will be 3.6 for the fiscal year 2728. And this means that without any p d approved exceptions that any any North Penn tax increase may not exceed 3.6%.

[32:38] The Business office staff is busy preparing for the 2526 audit, the independent auditing firm of Zelenska. This is a tough one. Zenkovsky Axelrod will start the audit in early October.

[32:54] We say za for sure.

[32:56] Za, I know, I know why now. Um the Federal Reserve raised interest rates by 25 basis points yesterday. That's a 0.25%. Uh, signaling that policy makers believe the persistence of inflationary pressures warrants a modestly less accumulating monetary policy stance. So for us, that means that the target range for the fed funds rate is now 3.75 to 4%, and the district's main depository, Univest, will automatically adjust the district's investment rate to a 4.0% as a result of the Fed's action. Okay.

[33:37] And in terms of the Treasurer's report for the month of July, cash receipts totaled 28.9 million and cash disbursements totaled 18.8 million. The total available funds at the end of July were 127.7 million, which is a reduction of 1.3 million compared to July of last year. The total balance will dramatically increase over the next several months due to the revenue collected from the real estate taxes. I am recommending the approval of the July Treasurer's report.

[34:10] Thank you and well done. Do I have a motion and a second to approve the Treasurer's report? Motion by Mr. Keyser, seconded by Mr. Bell. Any comments or questions? Okay. Seeing none. All in favor, say aye.

[34:26] Aye.

[34:26] Any opposed? Motion carries.

[34:30] Oh. For the financial reports. Can we? These were already reviewed at the Finance Committee meeting. If we can go through and just approve them as they as a bunch, that would be wonderful.

[34:42] Do we approve those or do we just review them?

[34:45] So the financial reports recommend approval of the financial reports here. Yeah.

[34:51] Um do I have a motion and a second to approve the finance reports listed in in not board docs but board docs.

[34:59] Yes.

[35:00] Motion by Mr. Keyser, seconded by Mr. Bell. Mr.

[35:06] McBain, any comments or questions? S5:

[35:11] Back to.

[35:12] We'll go back.

[35:12] Miss Todd seems to have it so we're good.

[35:14] We'll go back.

[35:16] Okay. So we have a motion and a second on the financial reports.

[35:19] All in favor, say aye. Any opposed? Motion carries.

[35:24] All right. Just to keep things fun, let's go back to eight.

[35:26] Be all right. Eight B sorry, I was excited.

[35:28] No problem.

[35:29] So the eight B is our sanctions and approval of our invoices. And recommend the approval of the disbursements ending August 31st.

[35:39] Okay. Do I have a motion and a second to approve item A, b sanction and approval of invoices. Motion by missus coin seconded by Mr. Mcbane. Any comments or questions? Seeing none. All those in favor, say aye. Any opposed? Motion carries. Thank you so much. Okay, moving on to on our agenda.

[36:06] Any items for other business? S3:

[36:07] Out there if anyone's interested. Tomorrow evening, York Avenue Elementary School celebrates their 100th year. I believe it's 6 to 830. Is that. Does that sound right? Be there at 6:00 if you want the main event. I believe there's some. They're going to be some speakers and perhaps some kind of a ribbon cutting of sorts and or a ceremony, if you will. And they're showing the B movie inside in the auditorium because they are the B's. And there's also a home football game tomorrow night. So if you want to support our marching knights, our cheerleaders, our football team, feel free to join us.

[36:40] Clearly, with all of those activities, back to school is in full swing. So glad, glad to have school back in session and glad for everything that is happening with that.
