Um, it never ceases to amaze me how um things pile up uh that you you put off until summertime and then the list just gets longer and longer. Um, but looking forward to uh uh you know uh again um recuperating and hitting the reset button
007as um uh Superintendent Booker likes to say. um with all the um crazy and and somewhat you know disappointing news that's going on in the world today at least there is uh some good news uh locally. Um as Mr. Hawkins mentioned in the article uh in the Daily Journal earlier uh this week. Uh it's really always um commendable to our business department and the uh you know fiduciary responsibility that they have to uh support and handle the district finances to ensure that we have quote a strong position to weather any storm uh in this uncertain environment. Um I did want to note that uh since the publishing of the um uh public hearing on the budget uh the 3.89 um% uh assessed valuation growth projection has gone up 21% and so we are in even
008better shape today just a few short weeks um uh from the last time that you saw the public hearing. So, uh, again, more good news for our district and, um, looking forward to, uh, negotiations continuing in the fall and, um, making sure, uh, the bulk, if not all of that money moves toward the classroom in our district. And, uh, with that, again, I wish you a happy, uh, summer and, um, good luck. Happy summer. Thank you. A report of CSEA chapter 519 representative in the nick of time just in case. Hello. Hello. Hi. All right. Good evening everyone. Uh good evening board of trustees, district administrators, community members watching, everyone in the audience. Um, I'm Dale Brewer, president of CSEA, Chapter 519, Sonteo Union High School District's chapter of the California School Employees Association, and
009I am honored to be able to speak to you tonight on behalf of our over 500 members. I would like to begin by saying thank you to the district administration and to the school board for another successful school year. Through the many challenges that we faced as a community this school year, we were able to work together to come together through loss and tragedy, some tears and fear, and find a way to provide a clean and safe learning working environment for all. So, thank you very much for working together. Um, now, uh, as we close another school year, I I'd like to take a moment to highlight and recognize a group whose tireless efforts often occur behind the scenes, yet are absolutely critical to the functioning of our schools, our classified employees, represented by the
010California School Employees Association. Pause for applause. Thank you. All right. Now, while most of us think of summer um as a break in the school year, for our classified employees, it's anything but that. For us, summer marks the beginning of a different kind of season. We call it the busy one. One that is focused on preparation, transformation, critical upkeep of our school environments. And what does that look like? Well, for our school plant employees, excuse me, our school plant operations employees, it means deep cleaning every hallway, restroom, locker room, office, and classroom. We have crews currently installing new TVs and classrooms. They're installing scoreboards at pools. Our maintenance crews are repairing roofs, updating HVAC systems, and prepping athletic fac fields and facilities. Our warehouse and grounds teams are managing deliveries, landscaping, and safety checks. Classified
011employees are the heartbeat of summer operations. And then don't forget about our administrative assistants. They help close out one academic year and prep for the next, amongst many other things. And what about our technology specialists like these people here in the back? um uh they update our computer systems, they refresh our devices and ensure our digital infrastructure is ready to support staff and students on day one of the next school year. Their work is quiet but mighty and without it the first day of school would not be possible. Oh, and by the way, many of them are currently working summer school right now. CSEA is a hardworking, diverse community of professionals who bring pride, skill, and heart to their work. Their dedication to students and staff does not go unnoticed. Over the past year, they've
012continued to advocate for fair working conditions, safety, and professional development, reminding us that strong schools are built not only on curriculum, but on the people who support and sustain our learning environments. So, tonight, as we look ahead to summer pro projects and coming uh the coming school year, I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to every classified employee and to all my fellow CSEA members. Your work matters deeply and your dedication does not go unnoticed. You are all essential partners in student success. We are all educators here and I believe that I can speak on behalf of the entire district leadership. Thank you to everything you do this summer and all year long. Thank you all. Have a good evening, safe summer, and may God bless you. Boy, you know, you ought to run
013for president or something. You you are you nailed it. I I'm I can't I can't carry on. Thank you for your report. Thank you very much. You forgot about reading the end. Applause at the end. Okay, we're going to move on to uh uh K4 report of the Samale Adult School Teachers Association. Good evening. Uh, I'm Betty Chen. Can you ESL and citizenship instructor at the CEO Adult and Career Education? Thank you board president Griffin, Vice President Harry Chavez, board members and superintendent for the opportunity to speak. We the AFT, CFT union and staff of the SAT adult and career education campus are here to share updates and concerns from our campus. The recent and current events happening at SMAS. The adult the ASSE HSD program graduation took place on Tuesday, June 17th, 2025. We
014sincerely appreciate trustee Miss Beha Andrade Zuniga and Vice President Terry Chavez for joining us to celebrate and honor our graduates. Here's a snapshot of our ASSE program accomplishments over the last three years. High school diploma graduates. Fiscal year 2022 23 nine graduates 2023 to 2024 11 graduates 2024 to 2025 13 students. The GED graduates are of fiscal year 2022 to 2023 12 graduates. 2023 to 2024, nine graduates. 2024 to 2025, 17 students. This year marks the first time we've surpassed the total number of ASSE graduates compared to the 2022 AB 104 year with a combined total of 30 graduates from the high school diploma and GED programs. An incredible milestone. Uh for this week we have a safe our school garden and orchard. As many of you know the summit adult school shares a campus
015with a bridge program bridge academy. Recently new portable classrooms have been installed on an open grassy area of the campus. Adjacent to these portables is our cherish school garden and orchard. A space that has flourished for nearly 20 years. We have recently been informed that the garden structure is scheduled for demolition. Unfortunately, we were not given any information about what will replace it. The garden is not only a plot of land. It is a living growing part of our school community. It serves as a peaceful place for reflection, learning, and connection. The teachers, staff, and students deeply value this green space. losing it would be more than just a physical loss. It will be a blow to the heart of our school. We want to make it clear we love our garden and orchard as
016is our only green space. We respectfully urge decision makers to reconsider any plans to remove or replace it. Preserving this space is essential for the health, well-being, and spirit of our entire school community. To ensure a collaborative and transparent environment, the union guidelines stipulate that any proposed changes impacting student and staff should be discussed and communicate communicated to both certificated and classified personnel. This process is designed to foster shared understanding and prevent unilateral decisions that have adverse impact on our school community. And lastly um report uh about our citizenship program. There are 12.8 8 million lawful permanent residents that means green card holders and 8.7 million are eligible to apply for citizenship through naturalization for the fiscal year 2022. Almost 1 million legal permanent residents became US citizens. 14 students from our adult school were
017part of the 1 million for fiscal year 2023. 8 uh 870 878,500 legal permanent residents became naturalized citizens. 34 adult school students were naturalized during this fiscal year. For fiscal year 2024, 818,500 legal permanent residents became natural citizens. third. Um, this represents a 7% decrease from 2023. 18 adult school students were naturalized during this fiscal year. Many uh legal permanent residents choose not to pursue US citizenship as many face language barriers, personal challenges or limited financial ability preventing them from applying. For some, they may not be interested in becoming US citizens. Each immigrant student carries a unique narrative with the problems they face in their homeland, the pain and suffering they endured, as well as their hopes for a brighter future. Immigrating often involves giving up established careers and leaving behind beloved family members in
018pursuit of a more promising existence with the ultimate goal of reuniting with their loved ones in a new country. New immigrants face many problems in the new country. discrimination, being placed in detention, facilities, learning a new language, getting a job, not having enough food or place to stay. The Summit Adult School Citizenship Program has a 100% success rate, students passing the interview on their first try. Students come to our program because they've some students come to our program because they failed on their first try. We have a group of very dedicated community volunteers who provide invaluable assistance and support in helping students achieve their goal of becoming a US citizen. I salute the volunteers for their dedication in assisting the students pave their path to becoming US citizens. Please join me in applauding and congratulation
019congratulating our new citizens. [Music] I am extending an invitation to the members of the school board and superintendent to celebrate with us on July 10th, 2025 at 5:00 uh as we honor our new students. The event will be held at the Sato High School multi-purpose room. With solidarity and grace, we thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Okay, we're going to move on to uh governing board comments. Are there any governing board comments? Trusty Chavez. Thank you. I'll make this brief like I always do. Just joking with you, Mr. Griffin. Um I just I was going to give a shout out. I was so honored to be able to attend the ceme graduation last week and I wanted to give a shout out to Trusty Andred Zuniga who gave an excellent um graduation speech. Well done.
020Job well done. And I was really touched by all the student speeches as well and just the number of students graduating, but Miss Betty Ye gave a great summary, so I'm not going to go into all the details. Um I was just truly moved to see that many lives changed and a lot of students shared on stage and so it was just a great time. I was just honored that I could be there. And the one other thing I wanted to mention was um although we don't have any scheduled board meetings for July, I wanted to get thank everyone who is working really hard this summer. We have a lot of staff working throughout the summer. And um just as Mr. Brewer had already mentioned. So those were my two shoutouts. They were kind of
021already touched upon. So um a little bit short tonight for me, but that's uh my report out. Thank you, Rusty Lan. Rusty Andra Zuniga. Yes. One sec. Okay. Um, first I wanted to read the proclamation or not proclamation, excuse me. Um, the land acknowledgement that the students at Cappuccino had written a few years ago. Our community acknowledges that all of our campuses lie on the ancestral homeland of the Rome Tush alone. The Rome Tush are the original inhabitants of the San Francisco Peninsula whose land was stolen from them and whose native language was lost because of Spanish colonization. As settlers on the stolen land of the peninsula, we should be alongside the Rome remembering and honoring their ancestors and relatives. We thank the first people that were made to shalom for taking care of the
022land we use now for education and activities. Our responsibility of caring for the earth is unique and personal to each of us but should be rooted in allyship with the Rome talon so we can work together to protect and preserve the land for future generations. Um yes, I also um I also attended the adult school graduation. Um thank you Trustee Chavez for the compliments. Um it's great because it just shows new beginnings for folks and you know it's never too late to start over and it's never too late to finish your education. um your education is something that no one can ever take from you and it's such an important part of just being in this community. So, um that is it was so I'm so grateful to be able to have celebrated with everybody
023at the adult school. Um I attended the the district 2 electeds meeting with um that supervisor Corso had uh hosted last week. um folks from the Conteo from the Semato Foster City School District were there as well as um someone from the board of education and um other council members from San Mato and Foster City. Um it's it was great to talk with them because it's important for all of us to be in community together and just updating each other on what's happening in each of our spaces. we are um community members. We're constituents. We're um our schools are are important to the councils. We are all part of the same community. So, that was really important. Um I also attended the student board council interviews yesterday with um Miss Aino and um Mr. um
024it was just really it's just always every year we do this gets better and better. We have a ton of students. I think it's like 78 students or something that applied and the students just every year seems like they get smarter and smarter. It's amazing. I um I'm always blown away and so I know this year we're going to have really amazing student board representatives. So, I'm excited about that. Um if anyone needs red cards and um information uh to protect themselves right now during these times of immigration um detention and just people being removed from our communities. Um there are there's a ton of information on the Sanonteo County website along with um faith and action has a great website. IM the immigration um the immigrants uh rights forums and the um immigrants rights
025coalitions as well. So please um make sure that you are informed with what your rights are. Since uh Superintendent Booker isn't here, um I wanted to talk about the disability pride month proclamation. Um next month, July, is disability pride month. Um and in celebration and in um solidarity with our students with disabilities here in our district and um folks uh in the district also that are um educators with disabilities. Um I wanted to read this proclamation. Um, do I do should I do the whereas with along with the talking points the Okay, thank you. Whereas the disability pride month is celebrated nationwide each July to author the to honor the strength, resilience and contributions of people with disabilities. Whereas July commemorates the landmark passage of the Americans with Disability Act on July 26th, 1990. one
026of the most significant civil rights laws in US history, which prohibits discrimination, requires reasonable workplace accommodations, and mandates accessibility in public spaces. Whereas students and educators with disabilities enrich our classrooms, campuses, and community through their diverse perspectives, skills, and accomplishments. Whereas disability pride month offers an opportunity to celebrate achievements in the disability rights movement. Acknowledgement. Acknowledge ongoing challenges and recommmit to creating fully accessible. Can someone scroll this down for me? Thank you. Um, okay. Sorry, I'll start over on that one. Uh, disability pride month offers an opportunity to celebrate achievements in the disability rights movement, acknowledge ongoing challenges, and recommmit to creating a fully accessible and inclusive society. So, fun fact, um Ed Roberts was the pioneer for the independent living movement which started all the independent living centers in California. He attended um Berlingame
027High School um attended Berlingame Intermediate School and was actually not allowed to go to school. So, his parents um sued the district and was allowed to uh go to school. Um he then he then finished up at CSM which then and then then transferred to UC Berkeley where there was no room for him in the dorms. There were no accessible dormitories. So he created the first center for independent living. He brought in caregiving and social services and folks that could help students in the classroom. um and that is what started um this movement which is very important for our community. Um he then went on to work for the department of rehabilitation um where that that entity now provides funding to all of our centers for independent living. So that's really really important. Um, it's
028just nice to know that we are part of the the grassroots movement for folks with disabilities in this in this school district. So, it's so important and I'm very proud that teachers in our district teach disability history along with the US history movement and um just are very are very supportive and um are very inclusive of our community. So, thank you and um that's it. Thank you. Thank you for your comments. Okay, we're going to move on to uh public comments. If you are joining us in person and wish to make a comment about an agenda item or during the public comment section at the beginning of the agenda, please fill out a request to address the board form and submit it to the secretary. This form should be given to the secretary before the
029agenda item begins. If you are joining us virtually, use the raised hand feature on Zoom to be recognized. When invited to do so, your camera must be on before you are called upon to make a public comment. We will call on you to begin your comment.

Do we have a motion in a second? Are any comments from the public on that? There are none. Okay. Uh, any questions or comments from the board? Okay. All in favor of the motion? I Thank you. It passes unanimously. Okay. There. No special reports and appearances this evening. Okay. Construction, Mr. Hawkins. All right. Um, I wanted to introduce up Charlie Royce, our director of facilities and construction. Um, Charlie um
031is going to introduce our team uh to go over the schematic design um for the bridge academy new school project. Um we are incredibly excited uh to bring forth this um uh as we as we move forward. I I do want to I do want to note uh in light of a comment that was made earlier just um that this is only for the bridge school project. It does not include the improvements uh to uh the adult school. Um, and to to the point made earlier, um, no decisions have been made in terms of uh um of an orchard or a garden. In fact, uh, Mr. Royce and I actually met last week uh with Angela Taylor, the uh um principal of the adult school um as she identified her team that will come and
032be part of that process of discussion of that parking lot um as well as some improvements um to the connection between the smart center uh and the adult school. So, uh, we will work with Miss Taylor, uh, in terms of getting that communication out, um, because, uh, no meetings have occurred other than, uh, an initial meeting, uh, with Miss Taylor to identify a team of folks to go over that. Yeah. So, you're pleased. I didn't want to. No, no, it's fine. I just want to say thank you for doing that because during the comment section and and when they talked about it, I was going to bring it up here and and ask about it and you answered everything so nicely and I really appreciate it because we want to be inclusive. We want to
033have voices heard and since there hasn't been any start now we can start the inclusion and bringing in the voices. So, thank you so much. Absolutely. Um and we are ju uh Mr. Royce and I are incredibly excited to start working with the the adult school on some of the super exciting improvements that we will be doing uh with them as well. So um but that that'll come at a further date after all of those discussions have been had and that input that has been brought in. Uh so with that um you know uh this is maybe my most uh exciting uh presentation. Um so I will turn it over to Charlie to uh introduce our team. Thank you, Mr. Hawkins. And uh as Mr. Hawkins mentioned, um I too am very uh excited about
034this opportunity to present uh and recommend uh approval of the uh schematic design of the bridge academy. I'm introducing today our new um and I'm very excited to work with them, our new architects, Lionus. This is the first project we're working with them and we have uh been um just blown away by how they have uh interacted and um and developed the programming uh for this working with um Dr. Schulman and her team. Uh and we want to continue doing that as uh Mr. Hawkins said with uh with adult school. That's that's our process and that's how we want to do things. Um so um with that uh our um the present presentation will be done by Mark Juel from Lionus and at the end we will have um Michael uh Estrada from our construction
035management team Greystone West go over the schedule and the budget. So take it away Mark. Oh thank you Charlie. Hopefully you guys can hear me. Okay. Um good evening uh members of the board. Uh thank you again for inviting us to help you with this exciting project. I think we we share uh Yansies and Charlie's enthusiasm and uh we really want to we really want to see this thing succeed. So um let me walk you through kind of where we are. I know I have limited time so uh if if if I'm going too fast please slow me down. I'm happy to stop and um slow you down here. So next slide please. So, as as you know, the uh selected project site is the existing parking lot located along East Popular Avenue, uh bounded
036to the west by the existing biotech building and to the north by the smart center and to the east by a vehicular access corridor that is adjacent to the adult school. Next slide. Uh the proposed new bridge academy building and site elements are intended to integrate with the San Mateo High School campus. Uh the building geometry conforms to both popppler and the larger campus grid. As you can see, uh access to the new bridge academy is envisioned to be equally from both the south and the north into a main lobby. Uh and I'll I'll go into the spaces in a little more detail here in a second. Uh large outdoor spaces are provided along both the southwest corner of the building and then along the north side of the building. Outdoor dining learning is located
037to the southwest adjacent to the new multi-purpose space. Uh and a covered outdoor learning uh outdoor learning porch uh stretches along the north edge of the building adjacent to the art and science classrooms. Next slide. Do we have so excuse me um do we have a pointer with a light because when he was highlighting you know Yeahing the uh yeah can can we go back a slide um I don't know Mark if I could ask you I know that we did did note to um that for for time's sake um but feel free to to go back over that I think it this this would be helpful because yeah we Charlie who's got a a pointer that can help help the board members along. We appreciate it, Mark. No worries. So, uh I'm going to
038jump back to kind of the I think the the building geometry kind of speaks for itself. It's it's working with the existing high school campus grid as well as Popular Avenue. So, some of the geometry that you're seeing in plan, and we'll we'll talk a little bit more about that in three dimensions here in a second. Um should be fairly straightforward. You can see that there's a main entrance to the south and a main entrance to the north, if you're able to point at those, Charlie. Um, both entering into the lobby equally. Um, not necessarily favoring one side over the other. Um, there are large outdoor spaces being provided along both the southwest and north sides of the building. I think the two primary spaces that we we're we're excited about are the outdoor dining
039learning space that is on the southwest corner of the site where we're trying to create a little privacy but not too much privacy um and allow students to dine out there uh when the weather is nice and have a good solid indooroutdoor connection to the uh the proposed multi-purpose space. Um, and then along the north side of the building, uh, adjacent to the science and the art classroom, we're also looking to create an outdoor uh, learning porch. I think when we get into the floor plans, you'll see that those spaces, the intent is to attempt to open them up a little bit more and again create that indooroutdoor connection. It may be a little hard to read in this plan and hopefully it'll be a little clearer in the next plan. Did that kind of
040fill things in a little bit for you for you guys? That's very helpful. Yes. Thank you, Mark. Yeah, no worries. Um, so here I don't expect I suspect the labels might be a little small, but I'm hoping that the colors help a little bit. Um, so, uh, again, the entrances from the south and the north are joined by a lobby reception area, which is in light blue. Um, that separates the multi multi-purpose side of the building on the left from the the the classrooms and admin areas to the right. Uh the multi-purpose room is orange. Uh it's intended to accommodate a variety of uses including uh dining, assembly, graduations, etc. It is a multi-purpose space. Um and uh we're hoping that that space could also incorporate a couple of overhead rollup doors or overhead stacking
041doors that will improve indooroutdoor connections when the weather is nice. You can kind of see those small dashed in rectangles there on the south side of the multi-purpose space. Um the uh multi-purpose room is also supported by a reheat kitchen shown in yellow. Um um and yeah, so moving over to the classroom spaces which are blue on the east side of the building. They're connected by a spled collaboration hallway uh that happens at both the first floor and the second floor. That's also light blue. It's a space in between the dark blue. Um, the collaboration hallways are seen as partially programmed space where small student breakout groups can meet and collaborate within visual control of the of the classrooms themselves. Uh, the science and art classrooms along the north side uh, open up onto the
042covered learning porch. As I mentioned previously, I'll move on unless there are additional things needing clarification. And the admin is the pink if that wasn't already clear. Sorry, I did skip that. Keep going. Next slide, please. And then the upper level on the east side of the building is open to the lobby below uh and includes a wellness center and the remaining classrooms. Next slide. As I noted earlier, the proposed new bridge academy building is intended to integrate with the San Mateo High School campus. Uh the exterior will utilize primarily masonry and plaster finishes. Uh masonry veneer and plaster finishes. And again you can see the the east and west sides of the building. If you're looking at the bottom elevation from the south here are are the building is joined by the transparent and
043open lobby volume that bridges between the north and south side of the project. Next slide. and then some initial ideas about uh massing. Here you can see how the scale and proportions of the proposed project relate to the adjacent buildings. And these images might be a little small. My apologies, but um I think the two on the left uh tell tell the story pretty well. And and the bird's eye views on the right are for those that that are interested in in the adjacent buildings. You can see the biotech to the to the west and the smart center to the north and the uh adult school to the east there with some fake trees. Um, next slide. And then we're we're still uh very early in the design process with the school. Um, but the
044images here that you see on the left represent some initial vision for how the proposed interior spaces may feel. Um on the top image you can see the open uh connecting lobby stair. Um again this isn't exactly what we're what this is more about the vibe and the feel and and and and and uh kind of the vision than it is about the actual architecture at this point. But that's uh that's kind of the inspiration there. Um the middle image, the multi-purpose space, you can see uh again intended to be intended to support a variety of uses. So um uh more or less kind of a a large open space, but um you know, hopefully a large open space with some character and excitement. And then finally, the the bottom image, and this probably not
045the best image. I think there's probably a couple others that we we shared with the school at one point as well, but um the collaboration and breakout spaces uh where um you know these again are quasi instructional spaces. Students are are doing projects, they're working out there um and then maybe coming back into the classrooms and reconvening. So we're kind of doing double duty with the circulation space. I think that was it for everything I had there. I know that was a lot so I can go back. Yeah, it's Yansancy Hawkins. Um uh you you actually noted something that I I think is important and I would like you to elaborate on that. Could you elaborate a little bit on um the process that was that uh your team went through with the Bridge Academy
046staff um to um to get to this point where we're uh um recommending uh approval tonight? Sure. Uh it was a little bit of a of a of a sprint. Um given the the the end of the school year was approaching quickly. I think we kind of kicked off in in April and we had some preliminary uh uh project introduction and kickoff meetings where we we we more or less listened. um we didn't we didn't necessarily come with preconceived ideas and and uh it was about kind of gathering the information and and and then in our in our first sit down uh in person with uh the Bridge Academy um uh we we we presented some initial ideas for them uh to to see how they would react to that. We went through uh what
047we like to call a a uh well LA Laura probably has a better better uh term for it, but it's a it's a DOT exercise uh where we we kind of bring precedent imagery from previous projects that we've done uh that that relate similarly to the program that Bridge is considering and and we ask the the teachers to to uh actually take colored dots and identify the images that resonate with them and the images that that maybe just don't feel right for for what the Bridge Academy wants to be. And that's always a a pretty cool interactive uh process with the with the teachers. And what made it actually even cooler is after we left um the uh the principal and some of the instructors went through the same exercise with the students and had
048them uh add colored dots and put little S's on them so we knew which ones were the students and we could kind of see where there were there was variation between kind of what the vision was for the instructors versus the vision for the the students. And it was, you know, I mean, you can imag you guys are around these kids all day long and you can imagine what what what their likes and dislikes are and and uh it was it was a pretty inspiring image or a pretty pretty inspiring process and I I kind of regret not including an image of that here for you with this presentation. Um, so that was that was probably uh uh the first inerson meeting with with Bridge and then um based on our review of of their
049their program uh uh must dos, should do, and like to do, you know, we kind of helped prioritize uh uh uh what we thought thought was the appropriate response to to to their asks. Then we came back a second time and we presented some some updated updated things for them to respond to. And um not too far off from what you're seeing here. I think things have have evolved a little bit more. Um I think the the last time we met with them, it was like I think they were just entering finals, so things were getting just a little bit um heated and chaotic and and uh we were we were starting to lose their their focus. So, but I think we got it got it there fairly quickly and I think they were they
050were pretty excited about where we were headed and um at this point we'll we'll continue to develop this a little bit with our site on meeting with them again in August hopefully I think it is or early September and um and just kind of keep the process going. So there there there there have been a number of of uh just to answer Yansy's question, there has been a number of of of direct interaction with um a lot of users that are very excited about the project as well. So um I don't I probably missed some stuff, Yansy. I don't know if there's something else specific you wanted me to to go through there or Charlie, but um No, not at all. I think you I think you hit on all the high points. Um I
051just wanted to thank Dr. Showman and her staff for really, you know, in a busy period of time making time uh to give some really important feedback to ensure that uh this project which is a big investment on the the school district's uh side really meets the needs um of uh of their student body. Agreed. Yeah. Yeah. Thank you, Mark. Uh now we'll have uh Michael Estrada from Greystone West, our construction management company, go over the schedule and the budget. All right. Thank you, Mr. Royce and board of trustees. Um starting off as uh Mark alluded to, the programming began in early April and we moved through schematic design. Um that brings us to present and if the board of trustees chooses to approve the schematic design we'll move immediately into design development which will
052take us through October um which then leads into the construction documents and the eventual DSA submittal in December of this year. Um DSA review take us through the beginning of next year with the eventual stamp out ideally in mid to late April. Um simultaneously we'll work on the lease lease back contracts and establishing the GMP for construction. Um construction slated to begin in June of 2026 and that will go all the way through 19 months through the end of 2027 uh with occupancy uh slated for early January of 2028. Next slide. Uh, and for the budget, we've got the the largest sum, obviously, is the the construction hard costs. Uh, that's coming in just under 22 million. Um, the design fees for this one are just under 2 million. Um, DSA, they're 328,000. Testing inspections
053just under a million there. And construction management also 1.155. Um, the utility fees around 35,000 for this one. It's a little lower. Um, furniture, fixtures, and equipment. Um that's to furnish the building after completion uh 120,000 and then the SQL filings at about 20,000. That's probably a bit high but uh leaves us a little room for uh any involvement in the uh neighboring areas. Um miscellaneous expenses are 162,000 for this one and contingencies at just under 3.3 million. Um that brings our total current budget cost to 29 million just under 30. Um we are currently building a deep foundation allowance and as noted below there um the site is split right down the middle um parallel to popppler um by a liquefaction zone. Uh it's we're unclear how CGS will um process this as as
054prop proposed currently. We have the same footing design uh as the Sanonteo gym. Um but as we know the neighboring uh science building or biotech uh we had to do the 40 foot deep pierce um which would extend that cost depending which way we came by. So we we built that million dollar allowance for that which would bring the total proposed budget to uh just under 3 point or 30.1 million. And that's it for our presentation and we'll take any questions. The board have any questions trusty land? So I got three. Yes. Um the first one has to do with squa. So what's the you know are we worried about see is it going to be a mid deck? Are we going to have mitigated or are we going to do some you know because
055traffic I'm worried about and usually with SQA traffic becomes an issue especially on popular. So, what are we anticipating there? Because there might be some issues. Yeah, Michael, can you walk uh can you walk Trusty Lamb through the SQA process? Uh, I'm actually not quite sure what our filing status is to start this one. Uh, Mr. Land, I apologize for that. I can get you some more information and get that back to you. Okay. Yeah, I think just dealing with this with many construction issues, you know, since it's unpopular what popular, they might ask for traffic. Yep. Surveys. Yeah, I understand. We'll get you that information. Okay. Second question. Um, so the design, if we look back at design on page, you know, the preliminary exteriors, I elaborate for me. No, the one before that
056on. Yeah. help me. Um, I don't have the architectural connection design stuff knowledge, but how does this integrate with the brick, the red brick? And because I think it I see I can see the similarities, but are we moving too far away from are we too, you know, I don't know. And so that's the question I have. So, and and I apologize. I I should have noted this. Um, we're still working um with the site and and with the team on on colors and um and finishes. And I actually asked the Lionus team to make this as plain as possible in the sense of because we hadn't made that decision yet. I did not want um there to be, you know, one of the potential options in terms of how it would uh integrate with
057the rest of the campus because I know, you know, sometimes when we bring a schematic design, you know, we're even a little bit um farther along in this process. And so the San Mo Gym is a good example of that. If you look at the picture of the San Monteo Gym that was in the schematic design, it's almost a mirror image of, you know, what we can see uh over at the site. We're still finalizing that. Um, and so we did purposefully um, bring this um, without those parts. But Mark, if you could note, what will we do uh, and if you could answer Trusty Lan's question around what will we do to ensure um, that it uh, you know, ties in um, with the uh, the rest of the the campus. Um, so thank
058you. Yeah, I I mean I I think it's going to be about achieving a careful balance between, you know, replicating what's there now and and kind of looking forward a little bit. I think the intent here was to actually literally bring in some some masonry elements, but then possibly um uh uh uh do do something in certain areas that was more masonry and spirit, if that makes any sense. Um, I I I I could see like for instance, if you look at at the the lower elevation here, if you're still Yeah, we're still seeing that. Like the the the the area around the windows, I think for me, I envision that as a very kind of brick-like masonry uh element. That's kind of where I was going, too. Yeah. And and I think if you
059look at the adjacent building like the biotech and you kind of walk down the street, you start to see a mixture of of these brick areas that are that are held together by like pre-cast stone or or or concrete. And so there's this play between the brick and the and so we're seeing the same kind of thing here where there might be a play between brick and plaster, you know. So I think I think we're a long ways from knowing exactly how that's going to uh play out. I think there's multiple more iterations that'll have to be done. We did we did a few before this round that you're seeing here and and and kind of, you know, took the shotgun approach and, you know, tried to tried to see what what uh you know
060what what actually felt right on the site. And I think that um uh there's just going to have to be at the risk of repeating myself just a few more studies. And uh I you know there there could be some uh the inverse of what I'm showing too. I mean like the the the primary form could be more masonry like and the and the accent pieces around the windows could be uh uh plaster you know but there is that is kind of the the the the uh the typology that you have in the adjacent buildings where you've got a mixture of of brick and other more solid things. So, and then the other thing you might be seeing here in in on the left at the multi-purpose is it, you know, so I think this
061building is trying to it's trying it's almost trying to be two different things, right? There's the classroom portion which is it has all the classrooms. That's the classroom wing and it feels a little bit more traditional, but then there's the multi-purpose side which may feel maybe a little more contemporary or or or maybe not as maybe there isn't actual brick in that. Maybe it's a little bit of a of a more uh contemporary form. And that's that's what these uh elevations are trying to convey. So they have been muted down a little bit because we're just not quite there like Anie said. Yeah. Is that help? I think that's awesome. And I think the key word is kind of trying to f find that balance and you know because you don't want to just duplicate
062what's already there, but you also want to stretch. And I I love that. So and you don't want to stray stray either too far, right? Because you don't want it to be so off. And I'll give you an example. The smart center. I I knew you were going to say you know what I'm saying. Okay. We've heard it a lot. Yes. Okay, we're on the same page now. We've got we've got our marching that feedback that good. That might have been day one. That feedback on day one. Yeah. Well, and to give historical context, there was a huge fight about when we re renovated. Well, and this was before my time. Bob probably could address it better. Is Sano High School getting a revamp completely? There was a lot of we want it traditional. We
063want it the way it used to be. They don't want a lot of change. We don't got this modern buildings we want. And so respecting that fight from a million years ago, I think we need to kind of keep that in mind. So, you know, so the last Oh, sorry. Okay. Go ahead. No, no, go ahead. I was just going to add I was just going to add that I mean, and it goes beyond the materiality also. I think, you know, just this idea that we're creating these these smaller outdoor spaces also, which are very campus-like. I mean, it it's totally love that. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Uh and I did want to say trusty land that um uh Mark and his team including the principles at Lionus, we literally walked around the entire campus,
064looked at every building and and I actually uh have a lot of history at Sanonteo. So, and go back to 2005 when everything was torn down. So, I was able to share those experiences. I we talked about the smart center. I was around for that as well. So I shared all that um with them and they they soaked it all in. Um doc and this isn't something that Mark I would say but um we Yansancy and I felt really heard as as did uh Dr. Schulman, but when we talked about fitting that was that was one of the things that that uh um Mr. Hawkins and I uh really got across to them and felt like they really heard us and said that we made it clear that was important. So, um, we're confident that
065they will, uh, address that. Well, last last one, add three. The last one goes really basically to the input. So, if you asked your the constituents, the kids, the the the the principal, what was the big either the big ask or the biggest concern that they had in general? Did you meet it? Did you Well, well, I'll note. I mean, to be honest, this was one of the most joyous um uh experiences that I've had around um planning. um you know they've they've been building up a school um you know from one room, two rooms and you know they've been amazing but they've uh you know they've it's you know they've been a little bit landlocked and so they've been trying to find new space and so they were just excited you know throughout the
066you know throughout the pro the process they were really um yeah really joyous really but really good input in terms terms of it's important for you know this staff member to be you know this service to be close to this service in terms of you know are you going to be in the wellness center are you going to be in the admin space you know they um they loved the collaboration space that was something that they were um you know that they were really big on um but they didn't really ask us for any you know additional big spaces I think I mean they would love a gym and a you know a field you But we know that that there's going to be some sharing going on, you know, between San Monteo High School
067and the Bridge Academy in terms of those kind of facilities. So, um Mark, um Charlie, any other any other thoughts? Because I I actually this was this was a actually a a really great experience in terms of um folks of what they asked for. We were mostly able to give, you know, um that to them. Cool. That's what I wanted to know. Yeah. And I would I'm sorry. The one thing I want to add because I I want to really promote Lakis. Um I was impressed. Um that whole dot exercise because they came with this big poster that had all these images on it and it's like what is this for? You know, it's like oh can we put this up in the back? And then they pulled out these dots and the um the
068folks that Dr. Schman had there her team they started to look at everything talk to one another start putting up the dots and then when we're ready to take it down they said can you leave it up and can you give us a bunch of dots uh and the Lionus team was very excited to do that and so it was very collaborative and then the next time they came out they just they really excited to see the the feedback and we we spent some time talking about that so I really appreciated the process that Lionus took us through I honestly that wasn't my expectation Thanks for going a little deeper. I appreciate that. One last thing I I think one the question mark maybe um was around the science space and and really and I
069think there was a lot of discussion around that. Um you know because you know I think their focus was actually getting the right teacher and not necessarily you know does it have to be physics? does it have to be? And so really having that space be flexible ended up being the most important. They needed to be able to teach earth science or, you know, physics or biology. Yeah. And it couldn't be Yeah. It couldn't have those lab spaces that are like um built in that you couldn't move if you needed to, you know, teach a biology space that's different. So, I think that was actually one of the things that they talked about most and it was a really great discussion around Dr. Showman and her team and it really focused kind of back on
070finding the right teacher um to support that group of students was almost more important than necessarily if it was physics or biology that ended up being what was taught in there. It was having the flexibility to teach multiple sciences depending on, you know, getting the right teacher for that group of students. That's so good. That's exactly you answered all my questions. Thank you. Same here. I was the buyin is important. Yeah, I was just I was just going to comment that um I'm just it's just amazing to get that much feedback, you know, from the students and the staff and Dr. Showman and her team. So, I want to I want to um thank you for explaining that and also taking a little bit more time right now to explain the dots and everything. So
071that's that's great and that's a win-win right there. Getting everybody involved with hearing their feedback and everything. I think it's worthwhile saying that it's our intent and I've already had this conversation with Mark. It's our intent to go through this process with the um the team that uh um Angela Taylor, the principal of uh the adult school has put together to go and have uh that same kind of interaction with them. So that that's all in the works. We unfortunately couldn't fit that in because of our timeline to get into DSA and all the things that we need to do to to meet this timeline. Uh but once we have an opportunity to meet them, then we're going to incorporate that into uh and and I think we're going to come back to talk to
072you guys again when that time comes. So, you'll have an opportunity to approve that design. I have a question. Yes. Thank you. What does it look like like making the space um like with the painting and with like is there room to do a mural? Like what does that look like? So that's actually something um that they Lionus actually brought into the interview process um of of really looking at um because the bridge is such a unique program um you know the you know the outside I think we talked about a lot more you know making it you know fit in with the site um and having it be um what they need operationally and then the inside really having it um fit the school and so they've actually brought a lot of options and
073in that dot exercise a lot of the things were some of that interior space the the look for you know a potential mural or even a a space that could be you know uh rotating like so that you know every couple of classes could be involved in a process so maybe it's not maybe it's attached to the wall but um a lot of those discussions Mark and his teams were continuing to have but that was a big focus of Dr. showman's team was really having the space especially inside really um meet that and I think uh the Lionus team um when you when you looked at the stairs when you looked at because there's a really neat inside stair um there were a lot of things uh on the walls um looking at potentially um
074you know there was some of the the and I apologize I won't say it right but um they had you know things on the wall that had teachable you know science things, you know, that were on the wall um graphics um on the wall that is not just meets the the you know the unique nature of the school, but it's also educational um you know whether that's science, whether that's you know you know you know all the things that they do over there, poetry, a lot of things. It's great. I I think it's worth u mentioning that this isn't as we talk about um the bridge academy it's um not living in a bubble excuse me we're also in the process of working on the classroom transformation um project so um a lot of the
075things that we're looking at the classrooms uh that will be in the um six comprehensive schools are what we're looking to do at Bridge and one of the things that I've been promoting as we um look to what these classrooms are going to look like is really what we saw as we went from school to school to school is that the teachers really make their space their own. So what we need to provide isn't particularly a colorful classroom. We really want to provide them a canvas, an opportunity for each teacher to make it their own. And and I see that as well with Bridge, you know, that all of this is the opportunity for them to make that school their own, right? And that's kind of what I was getting with like what what does
076that look like, you know, and having the kids well the students and the teachers make that space something almost like reminding them of home, reminding of, you know, them of who they are. Yeah, that's so important. Thank you. And and it could change based on what's happening, you know, in the world, even something that's going to help them get through that time. So, and that's something that they'll determine themselves. Yeah. And even the outside, like the the aesthetics outside and they're in that space where they can go out and eat. Um having maybe even sort of like a zen little garden or something. That's cool. Yeah. Something very Yeah. Nice. I agree. I'm excited. Me, too. That's great. Yeah. I got a couple questions. I'm excited, too. I got I gotta tell you, um somebody
077played a terrible trick on me. If everybody looks back at that clock in the corner. Oh, it hasn't moved. It's like the It's like the TV. It's like the TV sitcom. Somebody unplugs the clock. You think you got Oh, yeah. We still got 20 minutes and I've been watching the clock because I I'm like, "Okay." Anyway, question has to do with the multi-purpose room and you know, that's a big space. Um, are you gonna have ways you can divide it up and use it, you know, and for smaller groups? That kind of I'm sure that's got to be there in your thought process. Yeah, you know, we we've done we've done that often on on spaces that are a little bit bigger. This one is kind of on that at that threshold where where it
078may or may not make sense to do that. We haven't really had that conversation with the the school yet or with the district and um definitely something we can talk about. Um 3,000 square feet is not a lot of space for for a large group of students. Um definitely something we can look at and and easy enough to do with the new construction for sure. Yeah, I was thinking, you know, you might want to divide it in half for two meetings or clubs or a faculty staff meet, you know, who knows what, but just some flexibility. The other thing there was and it's a it's really intriguing. It's really nice design. Um there's a basketball court there, but there's no soccer field. And I'm curious, um what kind of facilities and Y Nancy already nicks
079the soccer field apparently. Um you know, it would be nice to have, you know, some recreational stuff there, but you know, I don't know how you really do it. I I I think that was one of our you know that was one of the things that we looked at when we were looking at locations and that was one of the you know the drawbacks of of this particular pace space was it had about enough space to fit in the program that you know they really wanted to do cuz we wanted to maximize the programmatic space that they were looking for. Um, you know, uh, the one thing I will say is that, you know, we did have a meeting. I had a meeting um with Ivon Shu um about two weeks ago um when we
080were talking about you know how do we best partner between the bridge academy and San Mo um and so I think as we look forward in our facility master planning I know that there's going to be you know very likely on some initial conversations I've had with San Mateo you know about improving potentially the baseball and the softball field um you know uh they currently use uh the uh they use the stadium field uh as well as the tennis courts as well as the outdoor basketball courts. Now that there is a additional gym on that site that'll be opening very soon that we're excited about that'll open up even more space uh for doing indoor volleyball and pickle ball and basketball. Um and then there's also the courts that are the outdoor courts that are
081right adjacent uh if you go just past the Smart Center. Um and so they they use all those spaces. Um you know but that that does take uh coordination that does take um you know sharing and partnering. Uh but uh you know Ivonne is is a great partner in that and so uh I know they'll work to continue that work as well. And one more space I I'd like to add to um Mr. Hawkins list. So, when we have the ribbon cutting, we're going to be on uh for the new gym, we're going to be on one side. Um, and we're actually going to be in two different spaces. Uh, and on the outside of the gym, we've put in uh this turf section, a small section of turf. And actually, it's a different type
082of turf than what we have on our stadium fields. I I actually have been using the term luscious. I really like it. Uh and I was just with uh Jeff Sheller uh the uh athletic director of Sanonteo yesterday and we were on that and he said this is a great place to have uh even small soccer practices. So that's a space that's close enough to the new bridge academy uh that they could come up and use that space as well. So y was that the space on the south side of the gym? Yes. Yeah. Okay, that makes sense. Now there's a question for Mr. Hawkins. Yes. fund 21, correct? Where's all the interest going on that money? So, the interest gets actually allocated um to the individual components of fund 21. So, uh if you're
083measure L, measure L gets their portion of the interest uh even measure O. Um so, the the proposed funding for this is the um is the Crestmore funds and th those funds the interest of those funds get allocated um directly back into that. So they are allocated based on the average balance and I'd have to go back and look if it's monthly or quarterly. Um I believe it's quarterly that we look at um the average balance amongst the quarter and then we allocate the interest from the county uh to each of the individual we keep it in separate resource codes um and they get allocated their associated interest. Um we don't put it all back into a a individual fund. Um it all gets allocated. Okay. I knew the answer, but I want to see
084if you knew. I looked it up earlier today, President Griffin, just for you. No, I But I I knew that, you know, that would be, you know, so we're going to have money accumulated there to to uh put with the the proceeds. Yeah, correct. Yeah, we're we're probably looking at um at least a million and a half uh a year right now on those Cresmore proceeds, at least at the current interest rates. Um they stay um so yeah. Okay. Okay. Are there any more questions? Clear. Comments. No online comments. No inperson comments. Okay. We're being asked to uh approve the schematic design and the budget and the timeline this evening. Is there a motion? So moved. Second. Motion. We got a motion and a second. All in favor? I I Thank you. I appreciate the
085presentation. look forward to coming back and uh you know we'll see if there's enough brick or too much brick and uh trusty land I I just uh was texting with Todd Lee from Greystone West uh and he noted that that we should expect uh squa an update on squa in the August September time frame. So that's fine. That's what I was kind of wondering. Thank you. Okay, appreciate it. Now we're going to move on to uh what is it? Something Q2. Still me. Yeah. Uh uh so tonight I have change order six um for uh the I'm sorry, hold on one second. Uh of change order six and the budget augmentation for the districtwide fire alarm project. I'm happy to answer any of the trustes questions. The board have any questions on this item? Is
086it an action is a motion? It's an action item. Yes. Is there are there any comments, questions online? There are none. Okay. If there are no questions, we'll entertain a motion. So moved. Second. We have a motion and a second. All in favor? I I I Okay. R. Division of human resources. Yes, this is the uh human resources consent agenda. We have the personal actions, excuse me. And we have theou with cemetery high school in the fly fresh lines for youth peer point program where uh the student students are trained as peer advocates and restorative circle participants. And the third item is 14 student transfers from the high schools to the adult school. I' I'd like to pull item two just to make a comment. Okay. And then if there's no other discussion on the
087other two, I'll put forth a motion to approve item one and two. I'll second that. You mean one and three? One and three. One and three. Excuse me. Thank you. I'll second that. Okay. So, we have a a motion uh and a second on items one and three. Any any comments? Any public comments? There are none. Okay. All in favor? I I I just wanted to mention for item two, um this program is extremely important in the dismantlement of the school to prison pipeline. It's a wonderful program and they also work with our students that are sent to Gateway and to the YSC. So, um I am a huge fan. So, um I'd like to put forth a motion to approve item two. I'll second that. I'll go ahead and I want to say thank
088you for adding to that. Nice to Thank you. Okay, we have a motion and a second. Two seconds. Okay. Um, any public comments? There are none. Any board comments? If not, all in favor? I I. Motion carries unanimously. We'll move on to Division of Human Resources. Dr. Black. Yes. First item is personal action addendum. And we have two recognitions tonight. Both of these individuals have addressed the board personally, but tonight is the first time we have them officially on the personnel actions. The first uh individual is Ron Ronald Campana, principal of Peninsula High School, submitted his resignation effective June 30th, and he has been with the district for 23 years. Valerie Arbizu, our interim director of student services, has submitted her resignation June 30th and she has been with the district for 13 years. We
089recommend approval of personal actions addendum. I move to approve the personal actions addendum. There second. I'll second that. Okay, we got a motion and a second. Are there any comments there? Okay. Was there any board? Are there any I just was going to say it, you know? I hope I wish the both of them really well. They've been an integral part of our district and I hope they really well wherever they're going. Yeah. Okay. Well, thank you. All in favor?

This is for the adoption of the local control and accountability plan. We presented it at the last meeting. There are no material changes to the actual plan except for some two small edits. One, instead of saying um empowering staff, we changed that to empowering educators. And then goal 1.1, we made a slight um uh edit to the actual metric there. So other than that, there are no material changes from what we saw at the public hearing. So, we're looking for approval of the 202425 um local control accountability plan. I move to approve the 2425 LCAP. Okay, we have a motion. We have a second. Any public
103input or comments? There is none. Okay. All in favor? I. Thank you. Passes unanimously. Um approval of uh this item two. approval of the LCAP federal addendum. So, the federal addendum is the required component um that just outlines how we use federal funds aligned to our LCAP. So, we're looking for approval of this tonight as well. I move to approve um the LCAP federal addendum. Oh, second. Go ahead. We got a motion and a and a second. Um, any public comment, input? There's none. Okay. All in favor? So, I'm con I I always thought Title One funds, all the title funds were integrated into the LCAP. I didn't know that it was separated. Yeah, they they are also integrated, but you're required to have this federal addendum. Yes, I think it's a federal government requirement
104in addition to the LCAP because the LCAP is like the state requirement and then the federal addendum is to outline again how we're using those federal funding, but they match each other, right? The duplication. Okay. Sorry, I needed to know that there must have been a change along the way because at least we've only ever talked about the LCAP, which is the first. Yeah. Yeah. We've had the federal addendum for the last five it's been a it's been pre- pandemic. It's just if you look at the actual document it's pretty punctuary. So it just says yes we're you we have this much funding and this is how we're using it and it matches the LCAP. So it's always this addendum that we just go through because the LCAP as you mentioned already outlines all of
105the budget right? So it includes all the title funings. You do learn something new every day. Yeah. You do realize there are people from the Department of Education in Washington watching this broadcast. Just sure that we're we're approving the federal agenda. It's going to be gone soon enough. I mean, anyway, we've got a motion in a second on the addendum. Are there public comments or input? No, we already got the approval and passed. Yep. Oh, okay. We circled back there. Sorry, I wanted to get that question. Sorry. Yeah, he he he put me put me in that d loop that you get stuck in. That's okay. Division of business services adoption of the 2526 district budget. We have a very short presentation. Two slides. One slide. All right. Uh I won't count that. I won't
106count that. Uh in terms of changes since our public hearing I just wanted to identify for the proposed budgets there are no material changes uh but for the estimated actuals we have um sharpen our pencils around some of the uh revenue mostly local revenue PTA stuff like that um there was a a jump in uh services of 762,000 um that relates to an assessment by self um our reinsurance uh layer uh of insurance related to AB218 claims So we have included that in the budget. Uh our multi-year projections as uh President Childris noted are 3.89. We are happy to note that that is three 4.72 uh percent uh as of this morning. Um but uh these are the same as you saw although we do have the outy years where we include the 3 and
107a half% assessed value growth. Uh but it's important to note as you see on the salary increase line that there is not a salary built into the 26 27 or 2728 uh uh year as of yet. In terms of estimated actuals and proposed budget uh like I noted no material changes to the 2526 budget uh but a small decrease uh in the excess of revenues over expenditures uh on the uh estimated actual side. In terms of multi-year projections, uh we see about a break even budget in the 2627 of the multi-year. Um and with the assessed value growth uh in there, but no, uh salary increase uh you see an excess of revenues over expenditures of about 4.2 million. Uh but obviously those will likely be uh closer to break even as we put in
108uh the salary increases and the other commitments that the board will make. Uh in terms of next uh steps, uh we're going to hopefully adopt the budget tonight. Um and uh as as you can already read these, I I won't even go into it. So I'm happy to answer any questions regarding the budget tonight. Any questions? Trusty L. I just want to say thank you for putting the percentages in. You did it. We got you. We got you. Yeah. Did it help? No, it was help. It was very helpful. Thank you. It's very positive. So, yeah. I mean, I I think the the board's done a really great job of putting the uh district in uh you know, a financially a strong financial place where we can weather, you know, potential federal cuts and things
109like that at least on a one-time basis. Yeah. No, I think you did a great job. So, thank you. And your Thank you. Yeah. Yeah. And I want to say thank you just for always having, you know, the health of the district in mind and keeping us um in a good good place. Um just by that article in the Daily Journal. I mean that's it makes me proud of our district, you know. So thank you. Yeah. Yeah. And your staff, too. I got a great staff. Yes. Who do all the work. Well, they were here last time when you needed to answer all the tough questions. out when we're handing out, you know, the kudos. Congratulate the kudos.
