These are the things that happen at Bamb regarding the funding, the money that is available. Seeing with all the combinations that are happening now, with all the complications that are being made now, it's a lot of work, it's hard work for the administration, but thank you, thank you to everyone, and the city has something to give. It would be very good. Well, thank you for the comments. I want to know what the robot is going to do to see if they passed. Yes. [Music] Yes, yes. [Music] It's a meeting. Thank you all.

They are working on it. Thank you to the people who are listening, to those who have taken notes, and to those who have also wanted to know how the questions they asked that day are addressed. The questions, the concerns they have, appreciate the communication that exists between the school employees and the community, and that is what is going to continue to be done this Friday. Well, more will be said because the government's input will be heard, it will be a little clearer regarding that, and also They appreciate the teachers. Oh, for all the classes that have been done, the materials, the recommendations, also seeing with Kevin how, how are these things going to be done? Dr. Sala appreciates everything they are doing. It was a help for them to know everything that is needed. They also talked about the 2020 reopening.

They are still waiting, and tomorrow they will hear a little more. Oh, they are also looking for a regional group to see how it is impacting the region. They are going to work very closely with the teachers in the district area. The groups are going to be combined. As soon as the government says something, there will be a committee working to expand on what is happening with respect to elementary schools and also with the city directors. Not everyone is going to agree with everything, but they are going to see what is best for the children. On Thursday, they are also going to see what is going to happen on Thursday, and Kevin, also Kevin He's going to talk a little bit about reopening too. Kevin wants to add a little bit more to what Dr. Sol has said. [Music] They're going to communicate quickly after the Governor says the new information, or new things that can be shared.

They're also going to have some meetings to communicate regarding that. On Friday, they were expecting some information, but they're still waiting to share it. But I'm waiting. The district, the school district, is looking for a temple to use. They were going to hold committees to form a temple, but the big question is how it's going to open, Doctor. He wants to be on the same page to give the same information to the workers as well. Hopefully, they can help each other.
I do n't know if you have any questions before we continue with the meeting. Ah, [Music] about the summer schools and some new information with Summer School. They've pointed two people to the computer or virtual classes from kindergarten through high school through middle school. Summer school runs from kindergarten through July 6th, from Mondays from 10 to 11. High school runs from 11 to 12. This summer there will also be an acceleration class. There are other summer programs that will help. There are 250 children who will participate in special education [Music]. They have hired several special education teachers for at least one hour of virtual classes in small, individual groups, and other extra activities to help the special needs children. They are looking for small groups to identify the needs of the special needs children. She wants to thank all the staff, all the teachers, and her entire team who are looking for support.
They have made a sketch of each child's needs and listened to the needs of the parents and students, and how important it is to support the children who need it. This will start early, at 8 in the morning. And the calendars will be sent individually, and they will tell you the classes, the times, and the teachers who will help you. They are waiting to do things in the summer. Some have a question regarding what they want. Doctor Sal is talking about it. On July 6, they are going to have meetings with the nurses, consultations, rules, and regarding safety. On July 6, they are going to start looking at these programs. July 6 is going to start in high school. They are going to have groups that are going to be organized regarding that. They are talking about all the programs. That is their understanding of Doctor Sal is open to all.
Participation is 10 per group. How many have a protocol? They are looking at that. Doctor Sal, I think they are looking at the program. The School cars [Applause]. On the 24th, they are going to put the information on the Doctor Sal website, and they are also going to give a bulletin with the information that will be given for participation. All that information will be in the first session of the summer. Thank you. That's all. Apart from Doctor Sal, they are or are going to Speaking about the contracts, with this year's contracts for schools, they are going through a process, especially for elementary school teachers. Most of them are moving and are happy to be in different schools. There are also volunteers. There are n't many contracts for elementary schools; there are few. Also, for middle schools and special education schools, the group is doing everything to communicate about the contract process for teachers and volunteers.
It's going to be a little late with the contracts, but they are happy with how things are going. In the process, everyone who is hired and everyone who has been working... There have been movements, but everyone is happy with where they are going to work. Dr. Sal, I don't know if you want to add anything face-to-face. Casimiro wants to let the board members know that there are some parents who want to know about what's happening at the school this year, suggestions for practices, the things the children have to continue using. Parents need to be sure about what's going to be done. There are also the programs on the computer, and sometimes there are so many things that parents can't see it well. Over the years, they always try to do things for the summer, so the children have to practice, and they have to, of course, get the licenses for each program that the children are supposed to use.
They're going to try to do that, and they're going to reopen them so the children can use them in the summer. If parents ask about that, try to talk to the parents or suggest what's happening. Kin has nothing to add right now. They're talking... Ah, regarding... will you make a comment as part of the board? It's the responsibility to give information or inform about what's happening in the grades. They always put notes on what needs to be done. Oh, uh, Doctor Sal, you're trying to take another step to see the why and how of things that need to be understood. I don't know if you want to make a comment. It always gives students the choice of how to do the GPA steps or the system. It depends on the students how to do that and make the decisions. There are forms that have to be filled out that impact the GPA.
It depends on the semesters they take. Hopefully, they won't impact the GPA. That's determined according to the course. If it's bad, they have to retake it. So, if the students want to, or are going to, ask about the range of classes, there are many reasons for students to have options. They have many reasons to see the opportunities at the colleges and the requirements that are needed. They also want to see other steps. How can the The number of students, the number of teachers, everything, so that everything is safe. It's okay, and everything is well used. There's always work behind it, and everything that has to do with the tests has to be given. Ah, for the final day, as they say, that's going to be up to date. In the Power School, they always have to be seen, they manage and try to respond and look for things so that they finish that work and so that everything is clean.
Ah, the honors roll, in the class of ranks, there are also decisions to preserve the GP and so that everything is clear. It's in the student's interest and so that everyone is satisfied.
Do you have any questions regarding the rank? Is it for the freshmen, for the kids who are coming in, for those who are in the middle of high school, and the seniors, those who are finishing up? Each class has a rank. Are they discussing how they are given before it has started, before it has happened, what happened? Are they looking at or discussing with respect to the rank? The semesters, the cumulative, the GP, they have opportunities to grow their... Having higher grades this semester leaves them as they are, or they have the opportunity to raise their grade and be in a Ranking class. It depends on what they choose and what depends on them. Thank you for the comments and explanations. It's difficult, difficult in the end, but classification is something that happens. The doctor wants to thank everyone who has made all the things that have been done possible.
Now they are going to move on to the agenda. It's the update of the Summit project or the Academy. They are talking regarding Matrix, the ideas, trying to take the building, but based on the work to build a place, a job, something that the state wants to combine. So on Monday, I think they are going to finish. I think someone is going to make a comment after the person who was also there speaks. They are going to have a committee discussion. Cara is also invited to the department in Harford to work with them. The meeting on Monday is for delegations from the state, and the next day there are talks with the department to see if the plan is going to be approved, the money or not. They are going to work on the teleconferences regarding the changes. Cara is also going to They're talking about the Matrix [Music] project, whether it will happen or not.
The first thing that needs to be seen is that her visit was brought forward. She was very excited, very happy about the programs that are going to be carried out, but it's not known if it's really going to happen, if they're going to be seen in that location. She's explaining about that project with the high school programs. The visit was about wanting to see about the logistics of the project and the ideas and how the positions of that building are going to be made, if it's going to happen or not. It's still unknown. The legislation has to change for something to happen. Before that happens, the program has to be developed. They have to carry out the building, the transaction, and the D to do that. It's a big program; it's going to refer to many things, and see how it's carried out. It's a form with 16 things that have to be checked.
They just have to see things that happen. The project that can be carried out, if it happens, they're going to work on that. What are they going to do? What programs are going to be done? These are things that are being discussed; they are looking for the programs that will be carried out, the finance, the contract; they are looking for ways to see how it will be done. They are also thinking about how the people who are there or those who work there will use the resources that need to be used to make the programs happen. These are potential ideas that... the first thing is for the project to be tested, and from there they will see what to do. For the board, they have been talking about what needs to be done in the district and with the students as well, and within the high school programs.
Some students participated in the board meeting; they have to respect it if they have to... The idea is to allow them to choose. I would like to do this, or with respect to the space, the complexity of what is going to be done. That's why they are asking questions; that's why they went to the National Academy to see how it is done. When this academy comes, everyone has to be like everyone else, collaborating to see how it is done and how it will be implemented. They have to be... and not... through conversations about the alternatives or the path that should be taken. The high schools are thinking with the board, something has to come out with the participation. We need space, but if we have the space, we're going to do what we're going to do. You have to look, you know, look for what careers or aspects that are going to be done.
You have to look, you have to see what needs to be done because otherwise things won't get finished. Okay, what's being talked about? There's a question from K. Is there a limitation to the space, or as he's asking, regarding the ideas for the studies that are going to be seen, the numbers that are going to come in the programs? Physically, it's a long structure. The sixth and twelfth grades, in the broad view, are courses that, with the Pathways, that we have to deal with, seeing what they are really going to do, I mean, regarding the careers that children are going to pursue. They graduate, but not only with a high school diploma, but other things as well. Ah, facing a job, or they are going to pursue other things, or what they are going to work on. What is going to be done? There are many opportunities to see what they will do.
