Yes. And look at this. Together, they made a gigantic rainbow. And they both look happy in each of their corners here, don't they? I hope you enjoyed that story and how the rainbows say how the crayons saved the rainbow. And now if you want, I bet you could get some crayons and markers or whatever you have around your house and you can draw your own rainbow and hang them around the house to make it cheerful. And it's St. Patrick's Day. Do you know that our leprechaun, what does he look for to find his gold? He looks for a rainbow. And at the end of the rainbow, you go to the end of the rainbow. That supposedly is where the leprechaun's gold is hidden so we can find it. So, I hope you have a wonderful day. I can't wait to hear if you do some drawings of rainbows or painting them.

>> Uh I think uh Senator Quai uh it's a great question. Um when it comes to um just declar a declaratory or injunctive relief um you know uh the companion bill to this um we still did recommend if that you were going to keep the civil action in which the attorney general's office um would represent um that would be kind of the most limiting factor but we still believe that that would still serve as kind of a plaintiff attorney type of role. Um and the bill as written has to do with you know assaultive behavior specifically. So even though the assaultive behavior is the basis for the petition for a temporary restraining order um the facts that are going to be gleaned from those types of hearings are still um civil in nature in which they have different definitions for what civil assault is versus the second component which is criminal assault.

In the fall of 2023, Kraton School District adopted a student outcomes focused governance framework to ensure a focus on improving student outcomes. This framework is grounded in six research informed competencies. Vision and goals, values and guardrails, monitoring and accountability, communication and collaboration, unity and trust, continuous improvement. Evolution Constante. Guided by the six competencies, the board created a set of goals and guardrails. The goals reflect the community's vision for student success. The guard rails reflect community values and set boundaries for leadership. Progress monitoring. Within this framework, one of the most critical components is progress monitoring. Progress monitoring is structured conversation between the board and the superintendent. We ask does the student performance match our goals? Is there evidence of growth towards the goals? And is the strategy strong enough to produce that growth? When done well, monitoring supports the district by modeling reflective leadership, clarifying strategies and next steps, setting clear priorities across the system, and providing continuous feedback for improvement.

Interest in Batavia is strong like you can see and I have spoken with numerous female student athletes who are ready to participate. In response, we also started a petition to further show support for this cause and demonstrate the measurable demand at hand. As of today, we have received 918 verified signatures from students, parents, alumni, community members, and the number is likely to grow. While there is an estimated financial investment, sustainability can be supported through community partnerships, booster involvement, and careful scheduling within existing facilities. Every successful program at Betavia once started from the ground up and I believe growth requires a beginning. This represents more than just an expansion of our athletic programs. It's also about opportunity, equality, and giving female students the chance to compete in one of the fastest growing high school sports in the state. I respectfully urge you to take the next step in making this program a reality.

And you maintain, even with game on, you maintain the ability to do that in the future if you want, but that portion would of course be cut out and and sewed in.

They actually have different elements there. We construe them completely differently. So, um, our recommendation is still that because that type of civil action would be brought on behalf of the, um, employee, whether it's a sports official or someone else that falls under that category, um, it kind of opens the door to us representing people beyond that. So um our recommendation is still that what's the cleanest version is to instill a policy and I know other bills are trying to do that same thing to um give guidance to the department of education or any other department who may want to protect their employees through injunctive programs by giving them a a policy that says um you can either hire a full-time advocate that can do these types of reviews and assist the department and the employee in filing those types of claims. >> Okay. But if we put the burden on DOE to then do that, then it's going to cost the taxpayers a substantial amount of money, right, to pay a private attorney whatever their billable hours is.
