That's so cute. There's a lot of funny things like that in the game. I think it's very clever that people think these little nuances up. I personally think it's really funny that like whenever you use aerials on some characters and then like right and then you use it when you land like they'll like like for Luigi for example, he has like a karate chop attack in the air when he like goes down like this in the air and then if he lands on the ground with the hand, he'll like shake his hand when he gets back up and it's kind of funny. That is funny. I I like but like it's only noticeable if you slow down the game cuz it's like so fast you can't notice unless you slow it down. But it's very funny how he like shakes his hand when he gets up because he hit the floor.
Thank you. Great. Thank you, Mark. The one thing I would add, Mark, just do you remember the last big meeting we had a couple weeks ago where we we had that long list of over 90 strategies and we only got through less than a third of them. So, that subcommittee was going through the rest of them and and making recommendations to the rest of the Yep. And I think it was 35 pages or something crazy like that. Yeah. So there's a lot left to go, but but that but it's it the whole committee is going to be working on that the next meeting. So great runners, do not feel like you have to stay. Thank you so much for being here. Um to to be able to see you in person now and have the community see you has been really exciting reconnecting. Um so good luck and uh like I said, we'll see you Saturday.
So, the Spartans will play a man down for the rest of the game. 15-3 with a minute left in the game. Ball bounces around. Jane Pelier looking to pick the ball up. She scoops the ball up. Gets the ball over their straining line. Savia Mckne making a move. Ball goes over to Parsons. Parsons over to Pelleteer. Pelliter getting double teamed. She gets hacked. Pelier is a 12 meter with as the time winds down. 10 seconds left. Lucy Parsons. Lucy going around Lucy Parsons with a shot. Oh, just misses wide. Nice try by Lucy. And that's it. East Meto wins 15-3 over the Blue Devils. Somehow gets their first victory of the year in hands. The Blue Devils their first loss. East Meto back in action on Friday night against Mount Greylock. Have a good night everyone.
I go in and change it to Yeah. Yeah. Gail is absolutely right. If they're over, what was it? Yeah. I also wanted just to clarify so the letters go out but you know it could be just oversight by parents not excusing an absence and then at which time they oh my gosh yes this we went to a doctor's appointment or whatever and that is then then the unexcused absence is changed to an excused absence and that first truency letter Is it a boot point at that point? You basically get a pass for the next absence so that Aries can write the number of absences and will kick out a second letter until there's an actual additional unexcused absence. My my point is is so if I forget to call in for my kid, um then there's going to be this unexcused absent, you know, it's going to be unexcused and I get my first letter.
But there's a lot of little things in the game like how the balloon is attached and you can hit him. But yeah, but it's kind of good because it's like it like stops the opponent when they hit it. Like it like makes them like stand there for a second so you can get up back on stage. Okay, looks like we're coming down to it. I also really like all the facial expressions all the characters have. Mhm. Like right now, like right there when she got the fishing rod, she like smiled really happy and threw him up. All right, we're tied. Two two. Two two, but bluffed him down the stock. I wonder who they have that they uh would be after Jake cuz we haven't seen a fourth player yet. Yeah, we have. It was last game last time. Which one did we see? So, we had Eli, Tristan, and Jaden.
Are you gonna run run home? Bye. Thank you all. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Babies. Yeah. Good luck. Good night. Good night. See you the like post post post baby. Perfect. Perfect. Thank you. Thank you. Good night. Good night. Okay. Those are such the good things like those are the feelgood you know. Okay. You can't leave Makita. Sorry. We are moving on in our agenda to our old and new business. We're going to review the town meeting warrant. Town meeting is Wednesday, May 7th, starting at 7 PM at the Ashlin High School. And I believe Jen is going to take us through the warrant where it stands right now. Uh, yes. And I think you have an updated version. I Yeah. Okay, great. We do. Yeah. So, the bylaws were a little bit messier. Um, and and Lisa and I were working on them and I had a little version control on the last one.
But then I'm dutiful and I call in and say, "Hey, my bad. Sorry about that. Really, this was should have been an excused absence. Only my fault, not the kids's fault." And I'm saying that parent wouldn't be on track to be receiving like if this happened three times in a year, which could happen. I mean, life happens to us, they're not going to be triggered for a surgery. I I I can clarify for that just from the elementary. So it's kind of like a stair step. So the first thing we're always looking for is building that relationship, understanding the communication. So first letter is triggered. It is common that we get a call in a panic just for that. Oh my god. I mean I I'll sell myself out too. Here I am. I've done that before too. I'm like oh my god how embarrassing.
I don't remember. I know we had the fourth person because it was three three before. I'm pretty sure cuz they put Jaden in last and Jaden played, but then Yes. Yeah, he did. Uh we're going to while they're getting ready, um we are also going to have a special thanks to the Moose and check out the garage here in town on Main Street. Uh it is a hangout for the youth of Bluffton. It's a cafe game room, music venue. A lot of kids in town spend a lot of their time there and they have a good they they seem to really like it. They talk about it at school. Uh we are also going to Kaza Isabelle. Okay, this is I'm not going to lie, this is really bad for Kaza. Oh, really? Like really bad. At least I believe so. From what Jaden's told me, he says it isn't.
So, I just want to make sure you what you needed. So, I'm just going to pull mine up and that way. Um, okay. So, if we always So, did you get a new electronic copy? You probably um the only one I have was the one that was attached to the agenda that Sue brought out uh mailed. Okay. So, you don't have the updated version, Joe. We'll make sure you get that.
So that's the that's the first step. As long as we have that communication that and we understand what's happening then we can kind of continue on that. the sometimes the letters are still automatically generated but it's building that relationship. The next step is okay this is kind of becoming a pattern now admin and the targeted case manager they sit down and they kind of come up with a contract. So parent comes in we make a game plan and really try to get to the bottom of what's what's really happening what's getting in the way and how do we get you here? Then we kind of sign student signs. We come up with a plan and we monitor that. If that plan is still not serving anything. Then the admin team goes, you know what, we we've tried due diligence here on site. We're going to move them up to the next level.
But it is. Okay. It is not good, I think. So, let's let's go through Kazas. So Kaza is a character that some characters are like him, but he's the best of this version of character that most or like some hits that he will hit you with up close will just kill you. Like combos that just go that far. Like he can just kill you off some hits. Like the little like uppercut thing with like electricity. If he hits that you like if they're good they will kill you off of it. So he's got which you have seen me play against the other people. You've seen me do that. So when he has that lightning strike that he just did, is that considered a projectile? Can you Yes, he can pocket it. Okay. And that's Kaza's only projectile. A very good one. Does about 12%. Mhm.
So, if you have any questions um as you make as just note that it's because we weren't able to get that to you yet. Yeah, Joe. When you see Yeah. Once we get to the bottom, once we get to the back um articles, they're just it's the same exact language. It's just how we show it showed it out. Okay. Not a problem. Yeah. Thank you. I appreciate that. Yeah. Sorry about that. Okay. No, that's okay. Um making it difficult for you guys. That's okay. Uh so, article one is um town reports. Um article two will be fiscical year 26 budget. Um article three is our OPED trust. So, we'll be transferring $375,000 um into that into the trust. I'm holding a spot for article 4. Um I should say actually at the beginning I was hoping to close the warrant um you know when we initially talked about the the um timeline.
And then they come to a SAR hearing. And then once they're at the SAR hearing, we do the same thing, right? We have community resources there. So boys and girls club is there. Um the child protective services is there, family ties is there. So we bring community resources in and say, hey, this is to support. So, this is to bring everybody into a room and again look at what are the bigger barriers and is it transportation? Is it are you having trouble waking them up? Can we connect you to somebody that can give you some parent support in the home? And then we continue on that way. So, it really is a stair step. Yeah, I I appreciate that that that input. I I just one of the things I um I think is true I I'm hoping that those target managers are really involved before even those the first trinity ever letter ever went out.
But Kaza is a very slow character. He Every character in the game takes There's 60 seconds in a frame. About 60 frames in a second. It's 60 frames per second. and C and most characters have a frame um four or two frame two jump squat. So every time they push the jump button, it takes two frames for them to get into the air. That stock taken. But um for Kaza, his jump squat is frame seven or six, I don't remember, but it's a very high number. And he's the only character with a different jump squat. So he that just makes him even slower. So every time you push the jump button, it takes like three times as long for him to get into the air than other characters. Okay. So when it slows down, then the other character has a they have more time to hit him.
We were sort of hoping to close it early this year and then uh really work on the warrant book. Um given the fact that we're sort of meeting at tribard, we have a couple of unanswered uh questions. So this right here when you see the um the dollar sign just empty we'll we'll probably have some conversation around that so that we're just holding that there. So a transfer from the sped stabilization account. Um our annual consent article that we have every year is article five I believe. Um article six we start to get into uh the CPC articles. And so they have an annual consent that sort of just lays out the annual appropriations and the payments to the several uh bond bonded um projects. So Oak Street um the the Fields, Warren Woods, and Valentine. Um and then CPC actually has three new projects.
I mean, I I would hope that, you know, we're I don't know, maybe maybe the second one, but I I guess when those dark letters are not very friendly, you know, they're very and if I'm a parent and a student who is um if I am having troubles, having threatening letters from school districts is probably not the best route to go. I mean, when you're, you know, to get more flies with honey than vinegar. And I I'm understanding I I get that attendance is very important. I also think that there there needs to be that measured and not saying it's not, but what I what I'm hoping those SAR letters I don't know what can be done to make them feel less like I mean I get Pedro's point when he's saying when you have a kid with 40ies and you've tried everything and you want to Hey, no kidding.
Mhm. Like between every jump. So that's why he'll be on the ground a lot. Like the only time he'll really go into the air is like if he knows that. But right now, as you can tell, this is very hard for Kaza to do anything. There he got a gates of hell right there. Trying for the down smash for some reason. I guess it could work with the balloons cuz like the balloons extend your hitbox. Like it hits it freezes you like it also freezes your hitbox. Mhm. So it like you can hit them like more consistently with them. But I really personally I hate this matchup so much. Why do you ask why do you actually hate it? Because look at this. What is Kaza supposed to do against this? Like you just see him using the slingshot over and over and over again.
Um the first one is for the Asham Arborum. Um and that's $500,000. I think we talked about this one at the last one, but they voted last night to approve it. Um, their article 8 is to do a project with the town clerk to digitize documents and preserve um historical documents and that's for $110,000 out of the historical resources reserve account. Article nine is for additional funds for the dog park. Um, I think we talked about this last time, but we went out to bid. our bids came in a little bit higher and in order to get to be able to purchase the shade structure and some other um items for the facility that this Stanton grant requires, we're asking for additional funds of $60,000. And Jen, does that include the um maintenance or is that still going to be separate? because I know that there was a talk about like having a like a maintenance.
You need to get yourself to class and on time. I I understand that point. I think that and as a parent, you get there too, right? But again, it's that give and take and you don't want parents who may um have for a variety of reasons like real PTSD to um shows demonstraable authority. And I I think the one piece to keep in mind too because I I right the letter does come out is that before that letter our attendance clerks people have been reaching out via text via support before that ever. Yeah. And so that but so the letter is kicked out to say hey you're kind of just leaving us. We have no idea what's going on and so that sometimes is what triggers them to then connect. I'm glad to hear that that because that's where we you know we have to we have to be absolutely again I'll speak from personal experience that John knows I've had several students that we have tried and tried and tried everything and and you know you name it we've tried it um and I would personally get frustrated because I'm like when is a SAR letter going to go out but the point that we have as a team we exhaust everything before before that happens.
Kazy is not hitting him, right? The only way he hits him is his projectile which he can take. Like what does he do? Like if he doesn't let him get in, he doesn't let him get in, right? It's not a good matchup. He saved him right there with the heck the stage, but this isn't looking very good for the Kazia. Nope. And Isabelle's just short enough she can just stand there and the laser goes right over him. You're right. It's a terrible matchup. This is horrible. See, she's just planting it and he can't do anything. Like what does he do? Yeah. Like he's just stuck in his shield, I guess. Or he like there he got in. Okay. Like he gets in sometimes if Isabelle isn't ready for it. But like good Isabelle's just will destroy this. You know, it's funny because you look at the characters and you think that, you know, Kaza looks way more dangerous.
