[3:18] Yes. Um, our enrollment
[3:22] last month we did do have, um,
[3:27] that we had,
[3:32] but, um, so that the new dude depart third grade C
[3:39] um, stuff that's kind of on the line.
[3:42] Uh, our bus driver that's,
[3:44] or possible bus driver is having a little difficulty, um,
[3:49] getting through the driving tests.
[3:51] Um, there's,
[4:00] so hopefully we can get that done and we get rolling.
[4:04] That's that February,
[4:07] get a little pressure off current bus drivers
[4:10] that are doing the double for the combined route.
[4:14] And um, we did do a fire drill fired grill yesterday
[4:18] to block exits.
[4:19] So everybody was very well
[4:21] and we learned a few things we could improve on, which,
[4:24] so that was good.
[4:26] Uh, we're in the middle of mass testing our,
[4:29] our title teacher, um, back from a, a lead she took
[4:33] and, um, we tested s business this week
[4:37] and he's on track made, all done window of, so
[4:42] to go there, uh, opportunity, uh,
[4:45] we're taking a couple weeks off of that, uh, based on
[4:49] starting the end quarter and getting some grades received.
[4:54] Our meeting of the quarter, um,
[4:59] we'll pick that up as the, as the need arises.
[5:02] Can you have, um, usually five ish.
[5:09] Um, the tree situation that we discussed last month, um, uh,
[5:16] itself, a person that wasn't originally willing
[5:20] to commit, uh, with all this nice.
[5:22] Whether they have told a legal to do it
[5:27] and so they were willing to do the job
[5:30] or different cost that want to dump charge,
[5:33] but that brought the price down that 5,000 limit.
[5:38] So we just went ahead and it was 2,500 taxes.
[5:41] So almost third price.
[5:44] They did what you
[5:47] Had mentioned are, I don't know, the benches.
[5:52] Yep. Yep.
[5:54] So, so we have, um,
[5:57] the boards have arrived their, um, plastic on doors.
[6:02] Um, so they used that painting frames
[6:06] and uh, so yeah.
[6:09] Okay. Yeah, they did an excellent job.
[6:12] And I took, yeah. Yeah.
[6:17] Um, then we're, um, in the middle
[6:19] of our skiing for the year.
[6:21] Our, uh, first
[6:22] through fourth grade got done a couple weeks ago working in
[6:25] our fifth grade day was our second trip.
[6:28] We had one one week. Um, today was a beautiful day. We snow.
[6:34] So, uh, on there, things coming up.
[6:39] Um, um,
[6:44] Mr. O'Neal, a couple reasons before yet,
[6:47] but we've been fortunate enough to be asked.
[6:50] Participated. RBHI got
[6:55] that active Gabriel Health Institute, which,
[7:00] um, uses screening
[7:04] and you know, the various tests for, you know, individual
[7:09] to them get on their medical screen
[7:12] and if there
[7:16] mental health that, so this real,
[7:24] so it supplies that screening
[7:26] and then does the diagnostic is something that helps
[7:32] a therapy or anything like that.
[7:34] But case speaking out of know,
[7:37] but I had a meeting with him the other day
[7:41] and so we want to present this today, you guys
[7:46] to see what the thoughts were until we act on it.
[7:48] But I think without having a counselor currently,
[7:52] and you know, even we have,
[7:56] but just, you know, having the presence in mental health in
[8:02] and I believe pretty try.
[8:04] Mm-hmm. So
[8:07] after this discussion that we're going text
[8:15] board, um, having names to itself,
[8:21] having that would
[8:23] be, I think it would just be agreement.
[8:29] I printed out some documents for you.
[8:31] They're, they're in my pile. Okay.
[8:33] Um, it is an evidence-based screener
[8:36] that they'll do it on the computer, um, which seems odd,
[8:41] but they've been using it in mute.
[8:43] They're doing it right now at the
[8:45] high school and middle school.
[8:47] But the kids go through the, the screener digitally.
[8:51] Um, and then it flags if they have any mental health leads
[8:56] and if there's a red flag, they hook them up with care.
[9:01] And there was a little guy at one of the elementary schools
[9:04] that he was internalizing everything.
[9:06] They had no clue. The school didn't, the parents didn't
[9:10] and suicidal
[9:13] and connected him to care immediately.
[9:16] Like before he left school, they got ahold of the parents
[9:19] and got the parents in and it's, it's a good program.
[9:23] It is free. Um, the gal that runs it,
[9:26] Kaylee Brown, she's a new girl.
[9:28] She saves spots for the new schools
[9:31] 'cause she, they only have so many spots,
[9:34] but they're, it's being used throughout the state,
[9:37] but they only have so many spots.
[9:39] But, um, it's an opt in. Parents don't have to do it.
[9:42] It's a voluntary program.
[9:44] So I, I print it off what it's about
[9:47] and I also print it out the note.
[9:50] These might be a little outdated. They, they, they
[9:54] Did, they emailed Me.
[9:55] Okay. And this is the letter that will go home to parents.
[9:59] So parents don't have to do it.
[10:01] If you're doing anything
[10:02] with mental health anymore, you have to have parents.
[10:04] Oh, you used to be able to send a note home
[10:06] and say, if you don't want to do it, let us know.
[10:10] But now you have to have active consent.
[10:12] They have to sign permission to allow them to,
[10:16] I'm a huge advocate of it.
[10:17] I've seen what it's done in the MU schools,
[10:19] but actually it was brought,
[10:21] they brought it in when I was still working in school
[10:23] district and it's just kind
[10:25] of spread like wildfire in the district
[10:27] that using all the schools from the
[10:30] elementary up through the high school. So
[10:33] Would Opt not opt out?
[10:37] Yeah. So you have sent, you have
[10:39] to get notes signed back from the parents. So
[10:43] I would think with everything with the situation
[10:48] and kids pick up one way more than anybody
[10:54] that there's a lot of kids that feel anxious and concerned
[10:59] and scared.
[11:01] And so I think is a great idea that,
[11:05] Well, and I've said this before
[11:07] and I don't mean to talk too much,
[11:09] but, um, Montana's got the second or first
[11:13] or second suicide rate in the country.
[11:15] Silver bows first or second in Montana.
[11:19] And I went through it in Butte
[11:21] and I never want to go to a parent's house again off
[11:24] of my condolences.
[11:25] It's the worst thing I've ever had.
[11:27] But we lost a 10-year-old to suicide in the beauty school.
[11:32] So this is,
[11:34] I think it's especially not having a council mm-hmm.
[11:42] Fact say we were informed on that.
[11:44] We didn't want a child to stay that
[11:49] consent to it and no
[11:53] Absolute sure.
[11:57] So would parents actually read it would
[12:00] have my consent to it.
[12:01] Are the kids that we need
[12:03] more month?
[12:10] I think that's a good question. Yeah.
[12:11] If there's a, a student that maybe you're worried about
[12:14] or didn't turn in the form,
[12:15] maybe it'd be a follow up call mm-hmm.
[12:18] To say, Hey, you know, that it scares some people.
[12:22] I understand that, but it's,
[12:24] it's evidence based proven to work.
[12:26] But I, I would think that it make a few phone calls
[12:30] that say we're doing this, you know, just being proactive,
[12:34] trying to get kids help.
[12:35] We need it because a lot of kids internalize mm-hmm.
[12:37] And you never see it. Yeah.
[12:39] Until sometimes it's too late, unfortunately. Mm-hmm.
[12:46] So we'll get that all next week
[12:48] and kind of to GY back that
[12:50] or during the same front we,
[12:55] um, so we'll wait until that
[12:58] for those are similar.
[13:03] Um, pre-K we were just discussing that
[13:05] and all stayed back for mrne on the finance side.
[13:10] But, um, I think things are looking pretty bright on
[13:13] that next year.
[13:17] Um, couple things coming up.
[13:19] Irish dancers are coming on March 12th in the morning, um,
[13:25] that either thing
[13:26] and haven't been here since I've been here, but it hurts.
[13:31] It is very cold. Yeah, it's been done.
[13:36] So at 8 45 in the morning.
[13:38] So available, um, rotary Club.
[13:42] I met with him yesterday. Mr.
[13:44] Uh, talking contacts there
[13:47] and assist with the construction of the greenhouse
[13:50] that we purchased through the foundation grant
[13:53] that we got last spring.
[13:55] So we have the greenhouse here, which is decent still.
[14:00] They, uh, community outreach projects
[14:04] and uh, they built pretty well.
[14:07] We picked that on the page against today.
[14:10] And
[14:15] so the next couple of months,
[14:22] um, the spring professional development,
[14:26] we do this every year, uh, Friday
[14:29] and kind of build some of their, some of the teachers,
[14:32] um, credits.
[14:34] So this year we're gonna be doing, um, I think it's,
[14:38] I might have put this down developmental virtually.
[14:43] Um, I can't remember which one we're going to go with,
[14:46] but either way it's kind of training kind.
[14:49] Same thing with, uh, the RVHI squad bring the
[14:54] suicide prevention mental health stuff back to forth people
[14:59] keen on signs of things for that.
[15:05] It is, it's basically like first aid for mental health
[15:09] and it's, it's the youth mental
[15:10] Health. It is. Okay.
[15:11] Um, so that'll be April 10th,
[15:16] that's a two hour pre-training and then a six hour.
[15:24] And then with that thing, we're still, uh, looking
[15:28] for counselors and uh, you know, this, this,
[15:31] this stuff coming up will help with that in terms
[15:34] of filling that void.
[15:35] But we're always looking for a person to be present
[15:39] and um, you know, this setting is not is only apartment.
[15:46] That's our, our biggest hurdle is
[15:49] department services
[15:54] Department.
[15:56] So we'll discuss more of that coming up,
[15:59] but uh, next meeting will be March of
[16:04] Okay.
[16:06] Be back that meeting.
[16:11] So tropical I
[16:17] Not lie, I to bc.
[16:19] Oh, don't lie.
[16:26] I going until May.
[16:31] Oh, I want attorney. Oh yeah.
[16:42] Um, March 11th,
[16:53] 18th.
[17:04] Well, I expect
[17:10] anybody, um, the 18th I'll be here.
[17:15] Do the 18th. I'm just trying to be signed That good meeting.
[17:19] Oh, enough times. We have to do the 3 0 7.
[17:22] It has to be in the paper
[17:24] by
[17:24] 1st of March.
[17:30] Um,
[17:39] Saturday.
[17:43] I just think the paper only does a couple days a week
[17:45] now the deadline.
[17:47] So, but no, I think we should be okay. Okay.
[17:50] We'll plan on if anything comes up, please let me know ahead
[17:57] Then. One thing I forgot,
[17:58] um, king Street, I met with Bob Moore
[18:02] past week must been, um, so they have some
[18:06] preliminary drawing.
[18:08] We had survey teams out.
[18:10] So they have I think three different designs
[18:13] that they want present as well
[18:15] as discuss the bond timeframe.
[18:18] And at this point it sounds like they don't want to
[18:23] discuss it directly to the board.
[18:25] They want back to me. Um, so I did form Katie
[18:29] and we'll be meeting on the 17th of February
[18:34] and so they'll discuss it, whatever.
[18:37] And, uh, as
[18:44] it probably makes a decision least on maybe the bond,
[18:48] I'm sure this point, what they all have,
[18:52] but that seems like going forward, they want,
[19:04] your honor,
[19:06] Press rose.
[19:07] Um, I'll left you a few documents there.
[19:11] Upcoming dates, accreditation.
[19:12] We do have accreditation that's, um, opening this month. Mr.
[19:16] Kellogg so's taking care of that,
[19:17] but more than happy to also.
[19:19] Yeah, we'll give that you tomorrow.
[19:21] Okay. Yep. Um,
[19:22] county spelling be is tomorrow two o'clock at East.
[19:25] Um, Ramsey has their squad
[19:28] and you have the most seasoned, most veteran
[19:31] spelling be participant in all 66
[19:35] and 20 or eighth graders.
[19:37] This is his fourth Wow. Um, trip to the county spelling.
[19:41] So yeah, so, so
[19:45] that should be fun if I don't screw it up.
[19:49] Watch, don't, don't, don't. There's a side door.
[19:55] Um, our next community action team meeting that Mr.
[19:57] Kellogg attends is a week from today.
[20:00] The New archives, um, name that too in
[20:02] as Reviewed Education Foundation fundraiser.
[20:05] That's the last Saturday of this month.
[20:07] And hope that Ramsey has, you have, it's a,
[20:11] that's the foundation raises money for the grants like
[20:14] for the Greenhouse and our celebration of excellence
[20:17] that boys has been to and, and our books
[20:21] and babies program that I've talked about.
[20:23] But it's a, it's a really fun night
[20:25] and we, the community really
[20:28] opens their wallets to our kids.
[20:31] Um, I'll just tell you a little bit about it.
[20:33] We have three rounds, 10 teams in each round.
[20:37] Three people on a team play a song top heavy
[20:41] with eighties music for about 15 to 20 seconds.
[20:44] They either have to name the artist or the song or both,
[20:48] or either you get it right, keep going, you miss you're out.
[20:52] But you can get bought back in for 50 bucks.
[20:55] Last year we had 227 buybacks. Oh my God.
[20:59] That's 50 bucks a piece.
[21:03] So there's teams that get bought back 10, 11, 12 times
[21:07] and please don't buy me back.
[21:08] We're done. It's, it's a fun night, but it's, it's long.
[21:12] And I found out that I would never wanna be a bartender.
[21:14] Oh wow. So anyway, that's the end of the month.
[21:19] Um, our Hall of Fame, which we'll have six Ramsey Rams
[21:22] competing in is at Butte High on May 7th.
[21:25] I'll get the packets out
[21:27] to our Ramsey kids a month in advance.
[21:29] And then I got the grade school track meeting there.
[21:32] So May is just man chaotic.
[21:34] I say, yeah, I love, love may, it's just all fun stuff.
[21:38] So on pre-K program, as we know,
[21:41] we got a $10,000 anonymous donation.
[21:44] We still need about 41,000 more.
[21:46] I applied for Grant
[21:47] through the Washington Washington Foundation.
[21:50] I had three emails back the day after I submitted it.
[21:54] And those emails led me
[21:55] to believe they're interested in funding it.
[21:57] But one of the questions was, is this a one time only cost?
[22:01] Yes. So they were happy with that. Mm-hmm.
[22:04] Another question with,
[22:05] with any other districts in the county be
[22:08] applying, my answer was no.
[22:10] 'cause buts already implemented. Mm-hmm. So that was good.
[22:14] And then they emailed me back
[22:15] and said, I applied through the Education Foundation
[22:19] because I thought they wanted it through a nonprofit.
[22:22] So he emailed me back
[22:23] and said, really think you have a good chance
[22:26] of getting the funding if you apply
[22:29] through s Rams at school.
[22:31] So I'm redoing the grant now.
[22:33] I'll have it done by the end of the week.
[22:35] Um, and I asked for the 41,000. Right.
[22:39] So that would give us the whole Sure problem we need.
[22:42] Um, so if that doesn't work, um,
[22:47] and you can see both down here, um,
[22:50] that's the Montana Opioid Abatement Trust.
[22:54] I'm on that board. And one of the categories
[22:59] that they fund is early education and intervention.
[23:03] So I explained the pre-K program to the rest
[23:05] of the board members said, would
[23:07] that be appropriate to apply for?
[23:09] They said, absolutely. So, and then a lot of money.
[23:13] So that's, that's a backup plan.
[23:16] So Mo Washington Foundation is up to bat and Mo is on debt.
[23:21] So fingers crossed. What's that?
[23:24] I said we're not, I think we're going to get it.
[23:27] So I think we do registration.
[23:29] We allow, we have 10 families interested.
[23:34] We allow them to register
[23:35] and say, you know, it's pending funding
[23:37] but it's looking very positive.
[23:39] So hopefully we'll know by that. So yeah.
[23:42] So then we'll have to do screenings.
[23:44] We'll have to screen those 10 kids and,
[23:46] and get curriculum everything.
[23:49] But we've met with OPI once
[23:51] or twice a already so they're aware
[23:53] that we're pursuing this, um, school accreditation.
[23:56] I won't go through that on the back Hope Squad.
[23:59] I'll save that for new business item number 10.
[24:03] You're probably sick of hearing me talk about it.
[24:05] Um, RVHI, we already talked about that.
[24:09] The Montana innovative tax credit.
[24:11] We didn't have any take this year,
[24:13] but I'll take, um, the hit for that.
[24:16] I think next year we need to start promoting that early.
[24:21] Um, huge central I was told got over $200. Wow.
[24:25] And I don't know how they're doing it
[24:27] because um, when the money runs out,
[24:32] you, you can't, so there's the portal
[24:35] and it opens at 10 o'clock on January, whatever
[24:39] the money was gone at six minutes.
[24:41] Yeah. This year. And I don't central drop, they get to apply
[24:45] for a different pot of money than public schools.
[24:47] So there's several, but you have to be on the ball. Oh.
[24:51] So I think next year we go
[24:53] after some businesses that have, um, that pay a lot
[24:57] of state tax and just be proactive
[25:00] and hit it like in the summer.
[25:03] So if we can get just one big company.
[25:07] Oh yeah. I mean, so that, that would be just a nice windfall
[25:11] of cash school.
[25:13] So, and make more work for cash.
[25:15] And, and then the last,
[25:18] the last two things I have is I talked about our Books
[25:20] and Babies program that we're starting our literacy bags.
[25:24] Um, we got our bags.
[25:26] Um, so Green Bank paid for the bags,
[25:31] they foundations paying for the books
[25:34] and uh, the hospital we hand 'em out
[25:36] and signing kits up for the Dolly Bark library.
[25:39] So, so just wanted to let you know about that.
[25:42] I think it'll help improve literacy in our community.
[25:45] So, and then last move on Outfitters,
[25:47] your two new students they were in last Thursday.
[25:50] Were they So good.
[25:52] So if you just continue to let your families know that,
[25:55] that's available too, too, so,
[25:59] and they were very nice and very appreciative.
[26:01] So yeah. So that's all I have except the squad
[26:04] and I'll save that for new business.
[26:06] Okay. Thank you. Thank you very much. Thank you.
[26:10] Comments is
[26:14] presentation on PR series.
[26:21] This is our first semester transportation plans.
[26:24] Basically just playing the grade all semester.
[26:28] Um, its our reimbursement request to the week.
[26:33] Um, these bad, it was a hardest problem I had to do to date
[26:38] because we had half day routes
[26:41] and running one route only the mornings
[26:44] and while we're out only in the afternoons.
[26:45] And so it took some, some figuring,
[26:48] but, um, yeah, well done I
[26:52] that awesome.
[26:58] Um, presentation.
[27:00] Present our press inspection.
[27:06] Well, things are done twice a year.
[27:08] Kind Control comes out, does an inspection on our buses,
[27:11] make sure everything wants work order have done prior
[27:16] to our second semester.
[27:19] So that's just it.
[27:22] This condition and past inspection,
[27:30] um, purchase
[27:35] for the curriculum are
[27:38] No there.
[27:48] Tap,
[27:50] Uh, discuss with like,
[27:56] So Mr. And
[27:57] I, I had a meeting with the,
[28:06] uh, to get it started in
[28:10] and kind like we discussed
[28:12] before, program that grades
[28:18] students and middle school to be,
[28:23] uh, some of the kids that are having
[28:28] issues or whatever you adults about at these kids,
[28:34] at these kids that they come to
[28:40] make them aware of the situation, those kids
[28:44] that are on squad.
[28:57] So
[29:05] it sounds to me like the process of picking the group, group
[29:11] would probably,
[29:15] or bringing that would
[29:17] not my impression.
[29:21] Yeah. So the,
[29:22] the way it works is you first have three trusted adults go
[29:27] through the six hour training, two three hour trainings.
[29:31] And then you come back and you start an nomination
[29:33] process with the kids.
[29:35] So they nominate, um,
[29:37] I think three kids they feel are trustworthy
[29:40] and easy to talk to.
[29:42] And then those three advisors go through the nominations
[29:46] and you'll see certain names come to the top
[29:49] and they become your Hope squad.
[29:51] This lady, based on the size of NC School,
[29:54] recommended five per grade level and 6, 7, 8.
[29:57] Um, and then you have a meeting
[30:00] with their parents to explain the program.
[30:02] Okay. An in person meeting with, with the parents.
[30:05] And then, um, we talked about Mr.
[30:08] Kellogg, myself and one
[30:09] of the teachers here would be the advisors who get trained.
[30:13] Um, so I love coming up here with the kids,
[30:15] but um, basically like Chris said, Mr.
[30:18] Kellogg said we're not expecting kids to be counselors.
[30:21] We've never put that on their backs, but they are a bridge
[30:25] and they're trained how to look for a kid
[30:28] who might be struggling.
[30:30] One of the trainings they go through is QPR, just like CPR,
[30:33] but it's more of a suicide prevention.
[30:35] It teaches 'em how
[30:37] to question a student when they're hurting, how
[30:40] to persuade them to get help and how to refer them help.
[30:42] But they're actually the bridge between
[30:45] the student and adults.
[30:47] 'cause sixth, seventh, and eighth graders,
[30:48] they typically don't like to talk to adults, your Honor.
[30:51] So it is, I I sent you the, the link for the video.
[30:55] If you haven't watched it,
[30:56] you're having questions about it, watch that video.
[31:00] So they're trying to implement it in
[31:01] every school in Mississippi.
[31:03] They took it to the legislature there. Wow.
[31:05] It's a pretty powerful video from Chris
[31:07] and Cassie watched it.
[31:08] Yeah. Um, Dylan's using it. Billing schools are using it.
[31:12] Think Rocky Boy.
[31:14] Um, once again, it's an evidence-based
[31:16] and I, I printed out a document for you
[31:19] and if you look on the back of the first page, this is, uh,
[31:24] the curriculum that the kids, um,
[31:28] go through the whole class.
[31:29] They learn about building relationships,
[31:32] cultivating empathy, understanding ourselves,
[31:35] making constructive choices
[31:37] and developing emotional intelligence.
[31:40] So, um, there is a cost, it'll cost us about $4,000
[31:45] to start it, but we applied for a grant through St.
[31:48] James and they gave us $25,000
[31:51] to implement it out here and in the new school.
[31:54] So we have the money that's sitting in the
[31:57] education foundation.
[31:58] So with your permission, we want to be transparent
[32:02] and um, it's the middle school principal
[32:06] and Dylan could not say,
[32:08] and I'm probably being a broken record,
[32:10] I sure I should this at previous meeting,
[32:12] but he said there were more positive things
[32:17] that came out of it than he ever imagined.
[32:19] He said it totally changed the
[32:20] whole culture of their school.
[32:22] Oh. And really opened up communication between the kids
[32:25] and adults and then that whole spot, that plan,
[32:28] like fun events throughout the year, um, just to
[32:33] develop community.
[32:35] You have a great community out here already,
[32:37] but I think it's, No matter
[32:42] how good you are, you can get better.
[32:43] Yes. So, so, um, yeah,
[32:47] we had an implementation call last week
[32:49] and just waiting for board permission
[32:52] and we'll write a check and get the training going
[32:55] and kinda do a soft lunch this spring.
[33:01] Does anybody have any questions? Yes. Mr.
[33:09] Do I have a lunch? Good. I'll make motion.
[33:14] Next slide. Second. Thank question. All in favor? Aye.
[33:20] All opposed?
[33:25] And our last item is to discuss
[33:28] and improve required changes due two thought.
[33:32] The first policy state is 3 6, 6 5
[33:36] student safety.
[33:39] Um, we
[33:44] have hasn't been long completely approved.
[33:51] This one probably looks familiar. It was in December.
[33:53] Yeah, it was fifth and then the next week I got new email,
[33:57] but there were additional request.
[34:00] Um, I I couldn't Well yes, I could tell
[34:05] you see what they, what they deleted.
[34:09] Um, but when I read,
[34:14] read it over, it basically says the same thing
[34:18] and divorce, um,
[34:24] about unsupervised contact with an adult
[34:28] that has fingerprint based.
[34:32] Um,
[34:39] do I have a motion to approve?
[34:41] I motion further Pause in three six tonight. Julie seat.
[34:47] All second. All in favor? A aye all vote.
[34:54] And the second one is 5 2 5 more.
[34:58] Two fingerprints
[34:59] and criminal back records in, um,
[35:06] I began this talks about, uh,
[35:11] protecting students from harm while they're under
[35:15] the supervision of the district
[35:19] and what, what is required,
[35:23] which again is been based.
[35:29] Um, and it lists the people
[35:34] who are responsible to have,
[35:41] um,
[35:47] I effect not only are,
[35:53] um, employees required, but so are kids.
[36:00] Um, our approach is
[36:05] do I have a motion to approve
[36:09] with motion to approve policy?
[36:12] I, one, two. Do I have second? I'll thank the motion.
[36:16] All in favor? Aye. All opposed?
[36:22] So we have a meeting next Tuesday.
[36:27] Please remember that time at six o'clock. Bring your ideas.
[36:32] Um, and then our regular meeting would be March 18.
[36:37] Is there any discussion of not on the agenda.
[36:41] I was just gonna notify the board.
[36:43] Have the two open consultants coming up for election.
[36:46] I have had two candidates filed.
[36:48] Um, the filing deadline happen there on the ballot was on
[36:52] Monday and those two candidates both filed
[36:54] prior to that deadline.
[36:57] Um, there is still an option for people
[36:59] to apply the writing candidate up until March 2nd.
[37:03] So, um, we'll know
[37:05] and that passes whether we we have an election
[37:08] or whether we have
[37:14] on that.
[37:23] Always be, I really try not to be.
[37:36] It's speedy. It's weird, it was fun.
[37:41] Like it's fun. It's good to be apart,
[37:42] you know what's going on.
[37:45] And if I had more time, I don't going anywhere.
[37:51] Sometimes we just get up one.
[37:54] Oh,
[37:59] my kids' schedules are not to.
