001Hello everyone. Hello. Nice to see everyone. Hi. Welcome to tonight's meeting. Mr. Angley, can you please call attendance? >> I'm trying. Here we go. >> Joe Abdullah >> here. Vicky Salon, Stephanie Colnik, Jesse Leeman, Angela Murulo, Alex Mcnautton >> here, >> Justin Angley here, Jen Pod >> here, >> Jane Sergeant, Pete Tagley, Mary Weber, Christine Widig, >> she is she on? She was supposed to be on. Um, I know that Debbie was supposed to send her. Um, okay. Yeah. >> Okay. Thank you. Uh public comment. Is there anybody uh that wants to make a comment on on the agenda items? Anybody? No. Thank you. Okay. consent agenda. Alex, I know you've already reviewed it and it looked good to you, correct? Great. Uh, is there anybody else uh that reviewed the uh agenda? Is there
002anything you want to change or make edits to? Otherwise, we will move forward then adopt them. Thank you very much. presentation reflection on school opening and video. I wanted to say one thing. I did tell Ben this, but pictures were really magnificent again this year. The one picture with uh Kim ShraMM and that little boy melted my heart. I just had to say so just for my house because I love it. Ben Allen could get a Pulitzer for sure. So, uh, in a minute we'll we'll see Ben's wonderful video and then we'll hear from our outstanding principles to talk a little bit about um the opening week of school and that's what this reflection is all about. And my thoughts are just to report on what I saw. I was able to get out to
003all our buildings which was a treat um uh the first week of school and the first days of school. It's so such a gift to be able to spend some time with the littles, which I haven't been able to do as much as a middle high school principal and making sure rejuvenate you. Uh the opening days of school, of course, are about belonging and kids feeling welcome and like they belong in school and they're made to feel that way. And all over the district, I saw uh adults, our staff, our faculty making that happen for um kids. I saw uh teachers and staff out front welcoming kids in. I saw our ASOS giving a high five to every little tight and Andrew here welcoming every kid into the building. At Chap as usual, the red
004carpet was out so that kids get the sense the school's here for you. It's your school and welcome back to it. And I think that that sense of belonging goes along with the relationship building that we're going to focus on this year. And of course, belonging is a partly about also safety, not just climate, but safety. And at the beginning of the year, we do take um efforts to review our safety plans uh and our safety audits, and we'll be redoing that with our new SRO shortly. And our own people undertook training with teachers at the beginning of school to talk about our safety protocols, discuss our expectations with students and teachers, to answer questions, and to talk about the multiple ways that drills and safety um enactments can be can be undertaken in the
005school. um teachers and staff across our buildings are looking at our strategic plan and the secondyear deliverables and how to connect that to the work that we're doing and the improvement of our schools and I saw a lot of that going on. Attendance was very good uh near 100%. Um across all the buildings I saw a renewed interest again in developing relationships and working on our climate and our restorative practices. And so just a few particulars. Um when I got into the elementaryaries, I saw students doing what they call an initial hopes and dreams exercise that Emily and Emily could say more about probably than I can. But I was so moved by it because it wasn't just about good feelings, although there were plenty of those to be had. It was about the idea
006that we're going to help kids set goals and then work as a team to reach the goals that they select so they have some say in it. And when I walked around the elementarymentaries, I would say to people, "Do you know who I am?" to the littles. And I I'm not I have to tell you, I'm not as famous there as I hope to become in the in the in the coming weeks. But a few of them knew me. And I would say, "How do you know me?" And they'd say, "Oh, cuz my brother or sister goes to Ship or that kind of thing." But my favorite response, one little fella says, "I know you. You're the guy who can call a snow day." And I said, "That's that's true. I hope I don't mess
007that up." Uh, and then I said, 'What if I took a video of this class singing and posted that when there's a snow day? And they liked that idea. And then I thought, why don't I take a video of the board singing and dancing that I could post. Okay, we'll come back to that some other time. Uh, that that thought. Um, and when I was visiting Shipog, I I saw teachers setting up routines. I saw them getting into the idea of building um better relationships, stronger relationships, welcoming students. I saw classes getting ready to draft their respect agreements and I saw just teachers doubling down on making kids again feel welcome. So across all of our buildings I felt it was a privilege to be there visiting. I felt that our students were made to
008feel uh welcome and I'm glad to be part of that team. Now I would like to turn it over to the real highlights of this moment. We're going to have a great video from Ben and then we're going to hear from our principles. Thank you. [Music] I miss you. [Music] Heat. [Music] Heat. [Music] Heat. [Music] Heat. [Music] Heat. Heat. [Music] Heat. Heat. [Music] Done. Done. Principal highlights. All right. Well, welcome back to new school year. Emily and I are so excited that the first few weeks started off as smoothly as they did. Lots of smiles, very little tears that may be for reach. Um, so when we go into our first slide, Ben, um, as Dr. Shells had stated, we start off with a lot on restorative practices as a whole district. We were very
009lucky enough to have um some presenters and consultants from Ed Advance come to talk to the region 12 staff uh focusing on the why and the what of restorative practices. Um the key takeaway was that building positive relationships and school climate has a powerful impact on student success. After that, on one of the professional development days, our um Emily and I went back to our designated schools with our own staff and we did a lot of hands-on activities focusing on restorative practice and just ways in which they can build those practices within the building. And this was done with all staff, not just teachers, our literacy tutors, paras, educational assistants, everyone was involved in it. And it really focused on school culture and climate and principles and strategies of restorative practices. And this already builds
010upon what we already have in place within our schools, which is our responsive classroom approach. And second step, which is our um one of our social emotional programs that we use within school. Opening day was wonderful. It's always great to have our students coming in the door, a little nervous, but usually filled with excitement. Um we're very lucky to have an administrator at each building. Thank you, Dr. shells for being at Burnham that morning so I could be at Booth. Teachers uh welcomed their students and classes with warmth and care, intentionally setting a positive climate within their classrooms that really focus on fostering strong relationships, especially in the first few days of school, collaboration, and building a sense of belonging. Um this was done due through a responsive classroom approach which emphasized building community, establishing
011routine routines, and creating a supportive environment. And this is where Dr. Shells was speaking about setting hopes and dreams for each student and this really helps them feel safe, respected, and ready to learn. Um the next slide is sharing um several uh pieces that we are going to continue to hone in on. Um the first one is the American Reading Company. We're going to be continuing to refine our the implementation of the core program and small group instruction. Um we're going to be really expanding the utilization of school pace which is the online platform for um ARC and it will um continue to allow the teachers to um enter progress with fidelity on each student. We're also going to be looking at RI writing and we're going to be aligning explicit instruction with the ARC
012resources. Eureka is going to take a little bit of a front and center. We're going to be having some professional development this year, K5, uh, just to really revisit Eureka and strengthen our instruction in that area. And then Linkit, as you know, is our data collection system. And, um, we're going to be utilizing that with greater efficiency to monitor progress um, and to really guide instructional decisions. And then on the horizon, we have a few things. Um we're going to be expanding uh the work of Ron Berger leaders of their own learning and we're going to be focus focusing on strategies of models critiques and descriptive feedback. In addition, we're going to be looking at linkit intervention manager that is uh a part of linkit and it's going to be online forms and uh also
013the process to enhance our student success team. So really looking forward to that. And then also we're going to be doing training and implementation of the MClass Dibbles which is a digital platform for the um dibbles that we're already using. Um so that's our universal universal screening and progress monitoring for K5. And that's it for us. Are there any questions or comments? Good. Awesome. Thank you so much. I think I think Ben, we're still on those uh subsequent slides, the next ones. Yeah. So, my name is Mike Croft. I'm the assistant principal here at Chipog and I'm s I'm standing in for Sylvia Olette, who is under the weather and regrets very much that she can't be here. So, uh, please accept, um, her her regret in that way. It's it's sincere for sure. So,
014I'm going to speak a little bit about not only the start of, uh, school with students, but also the start of school with staff and faculty, which is reflected in some of these photos and bullets. Uh but the photos that you see here are of uh the first day at Chipog and I think they reflect a lot of what uh Dr. Shells and Dr. Rue and Mrs. Jud spoke about in terms of starting the school year with a foundation of community and relationships. And I think you can see that in these photos. And if you go to the the next slide there, the reason that this slide is here is because Mrs. So lette started with six with staff with this photo and with sixth graders with this photo and with ninth graders with this
015photo and I think her message was I'm new to you but I'm not new to Shap and the people I'm working with I'm not new to them. So she uh you can see that she's circled herself there and me and Mr. Karachi and that there's some other folks who are also in that photo from 2004. And if it were a middle high school photo from 2004, there would be still more colleagues uh in that photo. So that was Mrs. Olette's way of saying uh don't don't uh don't worry for me. I'm not I'm not new and we're not new to each other. And so she used this to to speak to some of the focus areas for the year. And those include uh as as in the district as a whole the concepts applying the
016concepts of leaders of their own learning. uh specifically uh models, critiques, and desript descriptive feedback is one of the real focus areas that uh our staff uh there's a handful that they can choose from. But that's one of the ones that a lot of folks are going to look at is uh not not necessarily telling students this is what a good job is, but but showing them, hey, this thing here, is this a good example of what we're aiming for and why? And unpacking the characteristics of quality. And if students can do that then they understand quality and they can pursue it uh from a point of understanding. And um in addition uh we'll continue to focus with uh faculty on uh developing engaging lessons including project-based learning. Uh just today, um Millie Perry and
017Brian Hogenbach, uh lead volunteer and executive director of the Steep Rock Association, met with the sixth graders in this room and said to them, "We've got a job for you. We want you to create a booklet that will highlight the 100th anniversary of Steep Rock and the six beautiful trails of the Hidden Valley Preserve and will get um families and uh young people and their parents interested in visiting the preserve. uh and and that means that the students are working not because the teacher said so but because there's an authentic purpose outside the classroom. In this case, they had an adult saying to them, "Our organization needs you. We we want you to to uh do this important work for us." So that's project that's a small example of project-based learning and it will continue
018in big and small ways and and Sylvia has been promoting that with the faculty. uh and you know the the the message really is we want the students to be engaged uh for their own reasons in their own learning. We want the faculty to be driving their own learning and their own practice. And and so that bottom bullet there that says learning from each other classroom lab sites. This is reflects Mrs. Olette's desire to continue Dr. Shell's um initiative uh which is called lab sites which is maybe a fancy way of saying that we're going to get teachers into each other's classrooms watch them uh work uh address have have the teachers who are being observed say hey can you help me with this I would like you to come in my classroom and tell
019me what you see and have the the teachers who um go in and observe have them uh take back what they glean from their colleagues to their own practice. So, uh, there are some themes there and I think the number one is that everybody's, uh, leaned into their own learning. I'll speak just to the the next slide here for a moment. Uh a little bit of the work ahead for uh Shapog is continuing to um uh understand and begin to uh implement in our work the vision of a learner which uh the board's familiar with and and uh Miss Snowden will be continuing to work with all of us on. Uh we're also preparing for our NEAS collaborative visit. the NEAS uh New England Association of Schools and Colleges credits uh the high school portion
020of Shapog and we have a visit in early December uh that sets the stage for the larger visit uh coming in in the following school year and so uh we're we we've already done a lot of reflection and writing and discussion as a faculty uh and we will do even more uh before and after the December visit by the the NIAS team and we'll be continuing to to dig into uh restorative practices even more deeply. Uh you know, we have been implementing those ideas by starting from a a foundation of community in the classroom and and and valuing and and establishing relationships first and foremost. And we also are prepared for when things go ary when when when things aren't right between members of our community. Uh we are going to be sure to educate.
021We're going to be sure to reconcile and and when needed, we're going to be sure to uh reinforce boundaries and expectations through through consequences. Uh but one example of that is uh Mrs. Olette um drafting a uh a restorative justice matrix, restorative discipline matrix that has been implemented or sorry, introduced to faculty uh and and and lays out if this sort of problem happens in the classroom, this is the kind of response we're going to have. if this sort of problem happens in the classroom, this is the kind of response we're going to have. She's gotten feedback from the uh from the faculty, has made adjustments to uh the document and the processes that she's putting in place and we'll be sharing that uh shortly with the board and also with um uh students and
022families uh soon. So, those are some of the focus areas that we've had at Shap. We we hope that the students we hope and believe that the students feel a deliberate approach to uh helping them feel comfortable and supported uh and and also then from there challenged. Thank you. >> Thanks Mike. Okay, moving on to reports and recognition. Next, uh I don't have a lot to report um I did meet with Ben um this week and I will continue we will um continue the conversation. I will uh meet with Don and Nicole later this week. But um Ben and I met uh to brainstorm a little bit about what I had talked about in July about ways to communicate with our community uh I think more effectively. So, uh, I think through a little bit
023of brainstorming, obviously, uh, Ben was really helpful in, uh, help guiding my thoughts, um, in a a much more effective way, I think. And so, what we've kind of pinpointed is is, um, creating maybe a monthly flyer that I think will kind of be like a a news bulletin, so to speak, that we'll send out to the region 12 community once we get the approval from Don. um once we figure it out, a template so to speak, and we'll um with the help of Don and maybe Carrie Snowden and a few others, we might plug in a few templates or a few um some um little snippets of the board meetings that we've had for the month that we feel might be really helpful to our region 12 community that we think that they maybe
024would enjoy seeing. It could be c celebratory. It could be uh educational. It could be something whatever it may be, but I think might be just something to be helpful and useful for our communities to see. And it's not just our region 12 families, but I want to um send these out to the three towns as well for their Friday eblasts. So, uh, we're working on a template to share, uh, those little, uh, snippets from the, um, we're not going to use YouTube. So, we're going to have a maybe possibly a page on the region 12 website. So, then we can store those little snippets there so we can bring people to our um, region 12 website a little bit more. and also to help guiding them to our um our schedule of the board
025of ed meetings, our committee meetings, our committee uh minutes and our board minutes because I think that that is uh very helpful. Certainly is for me um to learn about where the minutes are because it's not always easy to find. So Ben and I were trying to figure out uh ways to uh maybe find an easier way to navigate that. So once Don and myself and Nicole sit down, maybe we'll kind of look at it too and see if we can find out a little bit more user friendly way of looking at that. And then lastly, I'm just laughing because um Vicki just reminded me of something as I was thinking about the students um coming back to school. She reminded me that I did have lunch with a few seniors uh earlier this week
026with Justin's son, Vickiy's son, and then I think Kristen um Donaldson's son as well because they the big seniors now get to go off campus and have lunch uh in the depot. And so I sat down with them just to chitchat with them and it was really fun. Um and so it's those fun moments that I really love connecting with students. Um, and so it just reminds me that school is back in session and I love to just pick their brain a little bit and see what's going on and what they're doing. Um, and it just really I enjoy very much uh sitting with them and I don't want to say hanging with them because I'm sure they don't want to necessarily hang with me as much, but I enjoy I enjoy pretending as if,
027you know, I'm one of them. But um, that's it. So, I obviously encourage you all to come to the depot and maybe sit down with a few seniors during lunch and catching up with some of them because they're pretty great kids. That's it for me. >> All the time, hit or miss. >> All right. Excuse me. That all sounds great. and for the superintendence report. Uh the reflections that were um most important to me on my mind tonight, I shared at the beginning of the evening. But I still do have to tell you about a few personnel matters in this case and resignations. So the resignations on this report are Wayne Kowalsski, maintenance worker at Chipog, effective August 25th. Tammy McCannernney, building substitute at Chipog. Brittany Oglesby, para educator at Washington Primary School, effective September
0283rd. And Gabrielle Robinson, literacy tutor at Booth School, effective August 25th. Thank you. >> A treasures report, Alex. Yeah, I'm going to save my report and and wrap it up with the FNO report in a few minutes. >> Moving on to committee reports. Aggra Science Mary. >> Uh there hasn't been a date yet set for the aggra science committee meeting. Um but we will be discussing the uh the oversight committee that is uh that that is for the state uh and the people that will be on it next year. >> Thanks. Curriculum Dustin, >> uh tonight's meeting was postponed until October 6th. Um, but I do want to take a quick second just to acknowledge um all the hard work and dedication of the teachers over the summer who wrote curriculum and we as a
029committee look forward to u reading and hearing what they came up with. >> Thank you at advance. Joe, >> um our most recent board of directors meeting was this past Thursday, September 4th. Uh during this meeting, the board approved a supplemental funding application for short shortfall in their head start prenatal to five program which will help with uh nutrition access and nutritional access and breastfeeding support. Also approved was the authorization to uh give our executive director the power to um contract the sale of Ed Advanc's work space Connecticut sale which um they have an interest in ownership in which is located in Bethl. Um they're closing for that sale is slated for November. They don't have an exact date yet. Also, Jonathan informed us that the there is a state grant that will be funding
030the uh school-based mental health program that they have, which was possibly going to lose funding in December. Um, this state funding will continue to um keep those employees on for the rest of this school year. And that's all I have for now. >> Thank you, Joe. Finance and Operations. Alec, >> yes. Uh uh Nicole Grant has reviewed the numbers with us and while it's still early in the season, everything seems in up in line. Um there are two line items that I questioned before I had a chance to question Nicole answered them. Those were the two that she uh picked out. Uh one line item 122 had to do with salaries for the computer text. Um, and the other one, uh, 534 had to do with our phone system. Uh, we're still battling with Frontier.
031Uh, it turns out when you, uh, in your home, you decide to cancel your phone company, you just call up and they cancel it. Within 24 hours, it's done. It seems in our situation, they have to send a person out. You have to make an appointment and they're way booked ahead. So, we are still paying Frontier until they can get their butts out here and uh disconnect us. Um uh Donald Liry went through the capital projects, but he did that here for us uh earlier, so I don't feel a need to go through those again. Um, one other thing is the or one of the two other things is the district repair and improvement project better known as drip uh has been explained by Nicole and region 12 will receive $54,288 per year for the
032next two years from this grant. Um, the final thing is the boilers in the Washington primary. Um they were serviced again this year and for the first time the uh they they barely passed. Let me put it that way. Um we're now looking at replacing the two boilers. Just so you know, we have a a one boiler is a backup for the other one in case the other one goes out. Um we're going to probably have to replace both of them. They've been there. they're long overd their anticipated length of service and uh so we're looking into that. Um and that is basically it unless anybody has any questions. >> No, thank you Alex. Um labor negotiation. >> Nothing new to report. We haven't started. Oh, can I just provide an update to Alex's report,
033please? We were successful in getting uh Frontier to come out and terminate, so that's taken care of. >> We were successful to get Frontier to come out and terminate. That's taken care of. >> Yes, >> nice job. Thank you. policy. Justin, >> nothing new. Our next meeting is September 22nd at 6 PM. >> Thank you. >> Strategic. Uh, nothing to report. Uh I do want to just quickly say though even though it has nothing to do with this uh I wanted to just briefly talk about at our board retreat which is on September 20th um we will be in included in that uh retreat we will be doing a board um self evaluation which is going to be part of our superintendent um eval as we work with Don which I we talked a little
034bit about at the end of last year. So, be prepared to do some uh soulsearching on the 20th uh which I think is really helpful. I'm actually really excited about it because I think it's really important for us individually and collectively to decide uh how we are doing in our roles and how we want to move forward um as a group and what our goals are. And then what we will do is on the 22nd we will discuss at our board meeting um what those goals are based on our self eval which I think is going to be very helpful and then uh at our next meeting we will um have a session to talk about uh Don's goals as well. So it's all going to be part we we'll all share a lot but
035I think it's uh helpful to Don that we are um exploring ourselves as well as we're asking him to do the same. about that. Moving on. Old business. Second read for policy 3541-312 transportation. One second. >> Yeah, I appreciated the board's attention to this. Last time we had a lively discussion about it and uh some of the questions you had I took back to some of the people in the know. I'll report that and then the discussion can continue. I also invited Mr. Parach tonight. they had his expertise and the last time we spoke uh several board members I think Alex you were in this camp were loathed to tell parents that they couldn't take their kids at all which I respected and this is a way for us to make sure they can drive
036their kids without threatening any unoured liability towards us some board members asked okay but do the forms go far enough or are these the right forms or the best way to do it could it be just one form could the form be more restrictive and I took all those questions back to our council. Nicole and I actually got on the phone with Tom Looney and in his expert opinion, he feels that if we want to do this, these are this is the way to do it with these particular forms. But then again, a few other members said, is it manageable? Is it a paperwork burden or difficulty administrative burden for coaches and the athletic director to manage? And I posed that question to Mr. Parach and he said it is not. I don't know. Would
037the board like to hear from an insider on what the perspective of the coaches and the athletic director is on this? If so, I think it'd be good for him to say a few words. >> Yeah. >> Um, so >> got to go to the mic. Matt, >> specific question. Sorry. Um, but, um, it I mean it's not unmanageable for the coaches to to use that form. um they're they're managing this type of thing all the time anyways. Um it it won't be hard at all. Uh coaches are uh always keeping track of who's going where and who's going how different kids are getting home. Um and uh there hasn't been a single coach who is concerned that this is going to be too much of a um additional burden on them. So, uh I
038I think that uh whatever we come up with, uh if it ends up being the the form that was proposed, uh we're we're ready to um embrace that and uh launch it as soon as you guys give us the green light. >> A question. Um, I think when we discussed it last meeting, uh, there was like a 24-hour and you you had to get the form in 24 hours in advance. Is there going to be a way that you'll have blank forms so that if mom all of a sudden is available, she can sign it at the at the venue and take the child home that way. So, I mean, I haven't discussed all those details with Don and Nicole or anyone, but the plan going forward, if if you said to me right now,
039go with this form tomorrow, I every single coach who travels with with some kind of a a folder, whatever, would have a stack of those in their folder with a clipboard, with their attendance sheet. And all those forms are going to go go out. They're going to be it's going to be put on the website. It's going to go out to all the parents. Um, so this this is a long answer to me just saying yes. Yeah. >> That was my concern. >> Yeah. And it won't will not be unmanageable. There's not a single coach who is even remotely concerned about managing that. >> Good. Thank you. >> You're welcome. >> So, as most of you know, I'm one of those parents that goes to almost every single game or event that my child is
040in. I prefer to bring him home. Um, I'm looking for the possibility of an option of the whole season that I'm bringing my child home from each game or event. And I'm assuming that there's multiple parents that are in the same camp where they're probably going to almost every single game and wanting to bring their child home from that. I understand that. Yes, there's probably that one or two times where, yeah, I couldn't make it. So that's that's if if there's an a default situation where you just say, "Listen, I can't make it. He's going to ride the bus home." I'm just looking to simplify everybody's situation and not have to do a form for every single event and more in a seasonal aspect. >> Sure. >> If that makes sense. >> It does. It
041does. And the the f the first form is the is the master form that covers like a year or a season. The second one is by event and is a little bit more does task people a little bit more. You know the I understand completely Joe and the problem again we're trying to fix is that we've got so many uh wonderful kids and parents from sending towns who are in that situation and they need some kind of accommodation and we want them to have it with reasonable expedience but um the tension is we have to make sure that we limit our liability which is you know part of my responsibility. So, we did ask questions along those lines. Could the master form have a box? This last this covers the entire season or it's only
042meant to cover event by event. And the contingencies involved. I mean, I drag you through the whole phone call, but having spoken to council, I do think that even though it's going to be slightly more annoying to have to fill out a form every time, we think that that's the way to do this and give people what they want, the ability to take their kids home from events without minimizing the risk to the work. So, is this still an electronic form or is it a paper form that we're going to have to hand in? >> I think that's a a detail to be worked out. Um, I wouldn't be opposed to an electronic form if we knew that it had the same authenticity to it. And nowadays, as I reflect here, I know that people
043sign electronic documents all the time and they're considered to be as authentic as a hard copy. So, I bet we could do that. But I I I can't promise that until I till I review it. >> I'm just just trying to cover each each angle, right? Cuz there may be the possibility where say you would you would sent the form saying I was going to pick my kid up and then all of a sudden something happened, an emergency happened and it's like all right, I want to make sure that the coach gets this and and my kid rides the bus home instead or rides the bus back to the school and so it's, you know, >> Joe, in that case, we make him stay at the visiting school. He Okay, thank you. >> So when
044these um get these little details get ironed out, how quickly will this take place? I mean, are we getting do we want this done tomorrow? I mean, is that the goal? the past. >> Yeah. >> And as a stop, but even now have wanted to limit our liability. So as a stop gap measure, we've thought that this form is better than nothing. Parents who are insistent on doing this because they have exitable circumstances, they've been signing the form now just so we have it. But if the board approves it and the policy, we can put it into effect very quickly. Not in this. >> Vicki, >> um I know we have a couple of sports that are co-ops. So should the kids should we contact you or the head coach that's from another school? >>
045You mean like with football? >> Like for football? Yeah. >> Um I'll let Nicole or Don jump in here. I think >> Never mind. Hockey. Ah, >> football has said that every kid will ride the bus back. >> I'm sorry, Mr. B. >> Football coach has told the team that every kid will ride the bus back from an away m game.
