And down to third base goes Eustace. Great heads up base running from her. And that is the 13th run there for the Clockers. So, they are in mercy range now. Yeah, that's that magic that's that magic number 13 that they were looking for. Um, I I would be shocked if they don't try to plate a couple more. I have seen coach Sasso take a third out this year when things are getting a little out of hand. He's showing a lot of class. Um, but I don't think it's a spot to do that just yet. Try to get a couple more. I would be surprised if he does it, but we'll we'll see. I'd love to see Ava at least get another at bat here if Haley can get on. As it is a two ball no strike count here to Butera. That one is shot to shortstop and it gets through by Isherwood and a run scores as Eustace will plate her second run.

And with the theory being that there'd be a cost savings or cost avoidance in the future. Is Is that fair to put it that way? That there's >> I I think I think that's certainly a consideration. >> Okay, yeah, I'm not saying the only thing, but I'm saying >> there students enter special education pipeline. Um I would say primarily in one or two places. Um through the birth to three uh identification for uh students that might have more significant needs. Those students uh leave the state birth to three program, which we happen to be a contractor for, enter the public school space. In Cheshire, that's been in Darcy uh in the three-year-old classrooms and um you know, we have some transitional programs and and pre-K. Um and then they matriculate on generally um to a specialized program within the Cheshire public Schools. So, um many of our students who exit birth to three might enter the program at Highland uh as a kindergartner or the program at at Norton as a kindergartner.

She gets her second run of the day. It's an RBI single there for Butera men and it's now 14 to one Clockers. Yeah, and here comes Venditti looking for her second hit of the day. And the Clockers have batted around this inning. As that one gets to the backstop and Butera men will take second and round and hold up there. So, almost batted around last inning in the third. They will bat around officially here in the fourth. Yeah, again obviously that 12 run lead is huge. Be nice to get a little bit more of a cushion so you can end this game after after four and a half if that all possible. >> will roll that to the pitcher's mound and the throw hit her in the leg. Hopefully she's all right. She'll get up to go to second. Butera men scores and Venditti will get there.

Um so, a fair number of students are identified through that path. Uh and then there are a fair number of students who are identified later in childhood um because they have different needs. So, um I think it is important to have somebody there uh with students that have more significant needs, uh a teacher who can coach other teachers, who can work closely with uh who knows a specialist in early childhood education and special education, who can work closely with the administrative team, um including our our PPS staff and general ed staff in the building, um who all I mean many of those students in that program won't go to Brown. This is reality. Um they'll go to other buildings as soon as they they leave that program, but uh we want them to have the best care and support possible, which does reduce improves their outcomes, reduces potential future costs as well.

And she's grabbing at that right like calf there. I hope she's all right. I think the pitcher might have threw it off her. Yeah, I think she's going to be fine. The ball was thrown and hit her, but she was in foul territory. So, if she was in fair territory, she may have been called out, but she was where she was supposed to be. Uh ball did come off her leg. She's a catcher, she's tough. Yeah. Uh no problem at all. I think coach might get her maybe run for her. Ava doesn't look thrilled about that, but what what's the sense? Uh why won't get somebody in for a little bit a little bit of action here. That looks like number seven. Is that Sierra Mullins, I believe? That is Sierra Mullins, correct. The sophomore. >> Yeah. Yeah, sophomore Sierra Mullins coming in to uh run for Ava Vendetti, and and Kyra gets her second at bat of the inning.

Was this budgeted last year in the LCAP, >> Mr. Saucer? >> Yeah, this is something we did do last year. Yeah.

Mullins is two for two on steals, so we'll watch that as Kyra will foul that one to the dugout. She is one for two, a couple RBIs, and a walk for Kyra. 15 to one Clockers, bottom of the fourth. There are two outs here. Here comes the 0-1. That is upstairs from Tuskus, and a ball and a strike. And we will wait and see if we get to see Lorelei Collette bat again here. Sure would be nice to get her one more. Kyra smokes it into center field, but right at the center fielder, Blanchard, who makes the catch. That was a rocket, but unfortunately, nothing to show for. Yeah, second rocket in two days that's been right at a center fielder for Kyra. Unfortunately, she's not able to put one into a gap. Uh and she makes the third out of the inning, so we do not get to see Lorelei Collette come up again and try and chase that cycle down.

Yeah, I probably echo the same thing, Dr. Solon. Um you know, overall this has to be data-driven as to Matt's point, but it also has to be needs-driven as well and I do appreciate you being very innovative about the feasibility of what we have to deal with currently, but I I'm kind of tired of doing more with less, Anne. So, um to that point, I do hope that we can put this as I guess early budget discussions for next year um because there were several asks um and we didn't get those asks due to this reduction um and one of them is and I'm sure Ms. FitzGerald will state is the STEM coordinator, which we know there's a need in the secondary for um and hopefully the data shows that potentially there might be a need to add a administrator position back into the early childhood program.

Um but we are now at a 15 to one lead as the Clockers uh essentially put this thing away in the bottom of the fourth if they can get three quick outs here in the top of the fifth. It will be Nico Usaris who will look to close it out, get a win on the mound which she unfortunately didn't get yesterday, got the no decision, but she'll look for that here and hopefully a big 14-run win to cap off a great regular season for the Clockers. Yeah, and what's interesting is they're at they put up 15 runs in this is it could be their 15th win. So, 15 runs in this game for their 15th win of the season. Um you know, 15 and five this year. I think it's I obviously we're getting ahead of ourselves a little bit. I think it's safe to say that this one is well in hand.

And stuff like that. Right, and and no money will be coming back from the ECS to replenish? So, uh, no. You know, it wasn't budgeted that way, but, you know, the town has a different flexibility to retain a rainy day fund than than we do. We could carry over, um, up to 2% of our budget, but we we just don't have the money this year to to even come close to that. So, um, you know, we'll we'll monitor it closely. You guys will get, you know, the monthly medical benefits updates like we do and um, that is definitely something we'll be paying close attention to next year. Thank you. Mhm. I just want to add that from the really from the very beginning as we were looking at this and knowing that we needed to, um, really shave back that original budget, I think there was a lot of unanimous voices that we we wanted to concentrate first on getting the the classroom teachers to where they need where we felt the responsibility needed to be.
