001All right. Good evening everybody. Welcome to our Wednesday, August 27th, 2025 board of education meeting. Uh we apologize for the delay. There's just never enough time to talk through everything we need to get to, but we do our best. Uh if you would, we're going to have Dr. Scan lead in the pledge. Please rise. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. >> Thank you so much. Okay, Mr. Mano, any changes to the meeting agenda? >> Yes, we have one addition 10 C 3020A hearing officer decision. Thank you. Okay. All right. Uh, we get to do something really wonderful first. Welcome, Katie. We're so happy to have you here. Congratulations on earning
002your seat up at the board as our student representative. So, if you wouldn't mind, we're going to have you go over to Mr. Mono and get you sworn in. [Applause] Thank you and congratulations again, Katie. We're excited for your first report next week. All right, Dr. Scanland, we will turn it over to you for item 6A. >> So, we are very privileged to introduce uh one of our very successful students. If you didn't watch the news this morning, when you're superintendent of schools in the first day back for teachers and administrators and you hear on News12 Ward Melville High School, you cringe a little bit, but then it was a very good reason. So, uh, we asked Dr. Cooler to come up and introduce our student. Oh. Oh, sorry. Mr. Halonia, you got the record.
003Oh, both of you. >> Thank you. >> You got it. All right. So, welcome everybody. Thank you for the opportunity to be here tonight to present. Um, so as the premier high school level biology competition in the United States, the US Bio Olympiad provides educators with an opportunity to enrich the life science education of talented students. It supplies motivation, curricular resources, and skills training to take them beyond their classroom experience to the level of international competition. Each year, the science department, Dr. Kula and leading the charge with the science department support students who dedicate themselves to the study that can propel them through testing competitions. But rarely does Ward Melville have students achieve what rising junior Eric Leu has accomplished this year. After two rounds of challenging online exams beginning last February, 20 finalists were
004invited to a residential training program where they learned advanced biological concepts and exacting lab skills at the United States Bio Olympiad National Finals that was conducted at Harvard University. Eric initially competed against 12,000 high school students from across the nation. His outstanding scores won him an invite to the 2025 national finals where Eric then earned his place on the US biompyad team. This summer, Eric and his teammates went on to represent the United States at the 2025 International Biology Olympiad in the Philippines. Their hard work and commitment was rewarded with three gold medals and one silver medal. Like the performance in any sport, success in science competitions like the bioyad requires an intense level of dedication to study and practice. So, this is an individual achievement, but really an achievement that stands on the shoulders
005of so many others. Um, so Eric, his parents are here tonight. uh as his first teachers and scientists themselves uh you know began that journey uh and throughout the district has been the beneficiary of the education um you know of our teachers you know beginning in kindergarten all the way up through the high school oftentimes it's when students get to high school that they get this kind of national and international recognition uh but we're certainly aware that that start that process starts a long time ago. So from the high school we are we're very grateful for that support support from the board from administration from all of our teachers who've had a a hand in Eric's education. Uh, congratulations to Eric on this outstanding, amazing achievement. Eric, come on up. We got a certificate for
006you. [Applause] >> Absolutely. >> Come on, Dr. Gold. You go up there, too. >> That doesn't matter. Wear my jacket. Definitely outside. [Applause] notes. >> Congratulations to you. Um, but I also want to wish congratulations to Dr. Kula because her support for this program and her leadership has been tremendous and you're the reason why we keep getting all these accolades with all these wonderful students. So, your hard work is truly recognized. [Applause] >> Congratulations. We would love for you to stay, but please do not feel obligated to stay. We understand it's still a little bit of summer left, so do as you wish. If there's ice cream in your future, we understand. >> Bring some back. >> All right, we're going to run down to item 8A. Talk about possible bond. Mr. Carlson. >> Uh
007yes, thank you. Uh so uh everybody may recall uh last year we worked with the bond committee uh over a period of about a year. Uh we visited all the schools uh uh lots of meetings uh lots of discussion and ultimately the bond committee uh recommended unanimously that uh we uh proceed with a bond referendum uh with a whole list of projects districtwide. came out to about $125 million. Uh with discussion with the board uh back in the I guess it was last winter um uh our thinking at the time was separate that into two separate propositions. Pro I'll start with proposition two which would have been all of the air conditioning pieces. We still have some of our uh cafeterias and gymnasiums that are not air conditioned. Uh it would be those uh plus
008uh artificial turf field uh for the football field at War Mobile High School would be in Proposition two. Every which came out to about uh $15 million. Everything else about $110 million would be in Proposition One. And the way those work uh proposition two can only pass if Proposition one also passes. Um so that's fine. So then because of you know the budget uh we were going through the budget we had the issues with the health insurance state aid was un you know unknown at the time the state budget was so late so uh we decided let's let's hold off on on a bond referendum for now let's see how the the rest of the budget cycle plays out and then we can revisit in the fall. So we're revisiting it now. Um so our
009recommendation would be to to move forward uh with that. However, one thing we would like to uh for the board to consider not not uh decide on tonight but uh New York State um now as part of the budget process put uh put out a uh heat condition regulations. Uh basically it says uh to summarize it uh when it gets to 88 degrees in a space that space cannot be occupied by students. Uh and just so you know what we've been telling it's it's specific in how to measure the temperature. It's not on the window sill in the direct sun under a magnifying glass. Uh it's center of the room 3 ft off the floor in the shade. So back in June we had some uh hot days. uh Jason uh Greski, our our facilities
010director, went around to uh it was at the end of the school year. So like for for example the gym at Gelenus, which was not being used at the time anyway because there was testing going on. Uh but it was over 90 degrees. So if that were a regular school day, we would not have been able to use the gym that day. So with that new regulation, our thinking is perhaps at least discussed, do we not have the separate proposition for the air conditioning pieces because it's it's more necessity now than it ever was. Uh it was never a requirement that a space not be occupied. Now it is uh if it gets above the 88 degrees. So um again, we'd be happy to answer any questions about that now, but we're not asking for
011a decision on that right now. Uh we do want to continue uh discussion about the bond. On September 17th, I will be uh doing a presentation at the board meeting about the bond to review the the projects that were listed in the uh the the whole scope of the referendum, uh the process, the you know the cost, the cost per homeowner, that kind of uh thing. I'll be doing that September 17th to refresh everyone's memory. But just something to start thinking about uh whether whether uh we should separate air conditioning from the rest. And if we're not going to have air conditioning as a separate proposition, then the next thing again not to decide on tonight, just to think about uh with that separate proposition was going to be not just the air conditioning, but
012as I mentioned, the artificial turf football field at Ward Mill. So now if we if we do put air conditioning with all the rest of the projects, do we keep the turf football field outside all by itself? Have the $123 million in Proposition One and the $2 million turf football field as a separate proposition. Or then just make all one proposition out of it, all of it. or if you don't like the idea of a turf football field, then then that's that's a um you know, a con uh something to to be discussed as well. So again, happy to answer any questions about it now, but we're not asking for a uh decision on that now. Just so you can start thinking about it. >> Anybody have any questions for this evening on that? >>
013Sure. >> Um do you have a list of the spaces that violated this temperature requirement other than that one gym? Uh I don't know. Do we have uh >> No, we just wanted to check some of them. Uh yeah, but uh it was a it was in it was a week in June. It was real hot. So yeah, Jason and I were talking. We said, "Well, go measure a couple of spaces. See what so see what they're at right now." If on a I I forget what the the outside temperature was that day, but it was it was really hot. So if it was 95° and it had been, you know, it was one of those heat waves we had where it had been over 90° for, you know, however many days in a row,
014if at that time the temperature in the gym at Gelinus, for example, was 85 degrees, we'd say maybe with the the other air conditioning and all the classrooms, all maybe it would never get to to 88, but it was it was well above that. So So what what we're talking about is the cafeterias uh at the elementary schools. Um the gymnasiums at the elementary schools and uh Julian Murphy the gym at Welville is air conditioned now and the cafeterias at the secondaries are air conditioned. We had done the um in our 2014 bond we included air conditioning for the Ward Melville uh gym. Uh that was because we used well we still have the prom in the in the gym at Ward Melville and what we used to do is you know you have six
015700 kids in there all night at the end of June gets hot. So we would we would rent air conditioning units for that one night and it cost about $15,000 for that one night uh for the air conditioning. So, when we did the math, when since we were doing the 2014 bond anyway, uh our debt service over the 15 years to pay off that bond after building aid actually comes out to less than $15,000 a year to air condition it. And it's turned out it's great. It's just great to have. It's it's, you know, not the luxury, you know, some of us that are, you know, older and they say, "Well, when I was a kid, you know, well, it's a different world now." So, um so it it's really nice having that gym air
016conditioned. So we would >> plus the matter the work that was done in the last bond where we did all the unit vents and the different classrooms. We no longer have the air conditioners jutting out of the windows in all the different locations in the buildings and it's much more fuel efficient for us overall and with the amount of electric we're producing uh or consuming I should say. Um that's a critical factor. The bigger issue is if we have to vacate those spaces, whether it's a gym or the cafeteria, where are we putting them? >> And that's the bigger issue. Like if we're trying to get classes in, where are they going? >> Yeah, that's what I was trying to get an idea of like sort of which spaces are affected with this. So it's
017the cafeteria and the gyms >> for the elementary schools and then the gyms for the two middle schools. >> Thank you. >> First time I ever said that in public on the middle two middle school. >> Yes. and and uh also that um so that that was just one day we uh we went and and checked the temperature there. Uh but every year we get concerns from our building principles, especially in in some of the elementary schools, the cafeterias get so hot um and um there's there's not much we can do. So it may not might not be 88, maybe it is. I don't know. Maybe it's not 88° where we would not be allowed to occupy the space, but it's very uncomfortable. >> We also looked at the cafeterias particularly at like Mount and
018Arrowhead because their ceilings have a high uh peak to them. Lowering that level down and then putting some of the duck work above in that area if we had to. That also we're not also going to be losing heat during the winter time that it's going up into this vast, you know, A-frame at the top. So that's part of the mitigation with the bond itself to try to look at those areas um because that's that's a concern not just for air conditioning but also heat in the in the winter time. >> Okay, any other questions? Okay, thank you so much. All right, that takes us to 8B, our board goals, uh round two. I open it up to the trustees for any comments, corrections, addendums. Dr. Bach. >> Uh, sure. So, um, I think the
019I think last year we had an item related to the change in start times and I think that's not in the draft right now. So, I think I' I'd want to put that back in. I know it's um, you know, we had the restructuring, so I'd want to at least get, you know, updated costs and recommendations and then, uh, my understanding of, you know, the main reason we didn't do it last year was this huge increase in healthcare cost. So depending you know what it is we could we could consider uh getting that done this year. >> Okay. Anybody else >> uh regarding IT program? So there was a lot of request to recover the fourth grade. So hopefully we can put that in as well. >> So so if you look under budget development
020that the fourth uh arrow there that's when we say return programs that's what we were talking >> I include. Okay. Yes. Good. >> Anyone else? Okay, I pretty much echoed what Dr. Box said. So, I just Sorry, I'm going to make the blue column a little bit hefty here, but I feel like um three under safety and security, the the real estate broker should really be under budget development. And then under that, I had the same thing, you know, determine uh a way to institute and maintain um a later secondary start time. So, >> under here. Okay. >> Okay. That will bring us to our NISSBA voting delegate. For those of you that don't know, each year the New York State School Boards Association comes up with um a list of resolutions, proposed resolutions to
021consider and position statements to consider and sends it out to all of the delegations uh to decide amongst ourselves uh and then we choose a delegate to take our opinions back as a vote. And that is done right before convention um which this year is October 17th. So I believe last year Dr. Lee you did it correct. Would you be willing to do it again? >> I need to know the date. >> Um >> on Tuesdays >> the So Mr. Mother so it's the 17 October 17th is the actual convention. It's usually like couple days before. Do we know the actual day of the virtual >> or is that the 17th? It is the 17th. So convention is two days after that. So that would be what day of the week is that anybody? Friday.
022Would that work? >> Thank you. Appreciate it. >> So you want to vote on this on the third or you going to make a motion to move it? >> Um I think it's below for us to to move. >> Okay. >> I believe. >> Yeah. Sorry. So we'll we'll move it shortly. >> Got it. >> Okay. Board presentations. Dr. Scanland. >> Yes. So this year we gave you a list of uh possible presentations. Um some are required under state regulations. So the first one would be next week on safety by Mr. Blown. Uh as Mr. Carlson mentioned in his presentation, the uh bond would be discussed at the 17th meeting. Uh we're going to give an update on the task force for anti-semitism, racism, and hate speech. On the October 8th meeting, uh Miss Ruben
023will be coming to talk about the stock market lab that we've been considering moving forward with putting into the um high school. Then we have a break for the 5th of November, December 10th, uh program update from uh Dr. Biscari. Uh this is all the programs including MTSS and all the uh other things we've been doing this this year and and last year. The January 7th um just as we were talking about transitions for M Dr. Back with the um we have the secondary principles. All four of them will be here to talk about how the transition is going for all the secondary buildings. And then January 21st, again a requirement under regulations, Miss Pimementel will be back to do the data presentation. Hopefully everything isn't unimbargoed by then. Um and then February 4th, Dr.
024Drosky will do a presentation on the projections with retirements. February 1 deadline will help us. But this is not just for this coming year, but for future years, what we might be looking at as far as numbers. So this way the board has an idea potentially as we move forward on how many retirements we could. Just remember that that does not mean people have to retire. That's possible retirements. >> Okay. Any questions or thoughts on those? >> All right. Thank you so much. We go to Mr. Carlson for 8E. >> So there is, excuse me, there is a uh uh uh school tax exemption available for volunteer firefighter and ambulance workers that's been in place for about 20 years. I I don't remember recall exactly what year that started, but it's about 20 years. Uh
025and um it's uh available to homeowners after they've completed five years of volunteer service. Uh this is authorized by New York State and then each individual taxing authority can either uh choose to to to grant the exemption or not. And and we have always uh granted that exemption there. The state is now allowing that five-year uh minimum service period to be reduced to two years. So, uh we had discussed this back in the springtime with the um audit committee uh who recommended uh to adopt that lower the requirement from five years to two years. Uh and then which now we're bringing it to to the full board uh for discussion. Uh if the board is is okay with this, I would put it on the next board agenda. we would have to do an official
026hearing on it at which point then at a a subsequent meeting then the board could actually vote on it if you give me direction to to move forward. Either way, it wouldn't take effect to as long as it's approved by the board uh no later than February, it would be in place for the 26 27 school year. So, uh this this uh exemption I while I don't I can't say exactly uh how much it will cost everyone else because remember when when someone gets an exemption it shifts the cost from from some people to other people. Uh I can't say exactly how much it would cost everyone uh because I don't know how many people fall into that two to fiveyear thing. But I can say uh that um it would be very few for
027the reason of the same here as as every other uh area. There are most most uh volunteer firefighters and ambulance workers start at a fairly young age before they long before they become homeowners. Uh so by the time they become home homeowners they already have most of the time they already have the five years. So lowering that to two years it probably will not increase the number of people uh that get the exemption and if so it just speeds their getting it up by as much as three years. Right now we have 106 uh people in the district that get the exemption. Uh so what this would do as I mentioned uh would lower the requirement from five years of volunteer service to two years. uh and then after 20 years of of having that
028uh they would get it for for life. As long as that remained their they they uh that became that remain their primary residence. It doesn't transfer with the property. So, um if there are any questions, I'd be happy to take them. As I said, the audit committee's recommendation was to adopt the the new uh two-year service requirement. So, >> any questions? Okay. >> Okay. So, I'll have that on for uh probably September 17th board meeting for the official hearing of it where I basically say what I just said. Uh and then at a a board meeting in October, you can vote on it and it would be in place for the 26 27th school year. >> Perfect. >> Thank you. >> All right. I'm just going to add one other thing under our items for
029board discussion. Uh per conversations amongst the board and our ongoing um investigations of uh security practices, I would like to request that the administration do some further investigation into the specifics of some of the proposals about arming security and actually put some harder dollars and cents numbers to those. >> Thank you. All right, we're going to move on to policy now and I will turn it over to Mr. Mistaki. Uh the policy committee has met um to review the the continue the review of the 4,000 series. Uh on for tonight for first read is the homebound instruction policy, the adult education uh programs policy, class size policy, textbook selection and adoption policy, information center resources selection and adoption policy, computer and network policy, and graduation ceremonies policy. Uh, these policies have all been reviewed by
030legal counsel and I'm available to answer any questions that the board has. >> Thank you. Any questions about those? >> Okay. Thank you so much. Uh, we will move on then to our items for board action and continue with Mr. Mistki to discuss item 10A. >> Okay. Uh 10A is uh the board's uh policy with regard to student health services. Again, this is a policy that's been reviewed by council. It's reviewed by the policy committee. uh recommended changes have been made and I'm available if there are any questions. >> Okay. Any questions or discussions about policy 5420? Okay. Do I see a motion to approve? >> So move. >> A second. Second. >> All in favor? Any opposed? No abstensions. All right. Motion carries. Thank you. Item 10B, Mr. Mono. >> Okay. That's the designated
031place and times of the board meetings for 2526. The time is changing for the open session and executive session. Executive would be 5:30. From 5:00 to 5:30, we're moving it. And the open session from 7 to 7:30. Any questions or discussion? Okay. Do I see a motion to approve that change of time? Second. >> All in favor? Okay. No opposed. No abstensions. Thank you. That carries. And we have our walk-in item 10 C 302A hearing officer. Dr. Dr. Dresky, would you like to handle that? Or Mr. Mistki? >> That is the um matter that was discussed today in executive session regarding the hearing officer's decision in the employee disciplinary matter uh for the employee named in confidential schedule A. >> Presuming no questions, do I see a motion to approve? Second. >> Second. >> All
032in favor? Any opposed? Nope. Okay. Thank you. All right. We're going to take that to our consent agenda now. Do I see a motion? >> Second. Okay. I would like to move to pull item 11 Z for consideration outside of the consent agenda. Do I see a second? Second. >> All in favor. All right. We'll begin with 11B. Miss German. >> They are the minutes from the um organizational meeting on July 1st. Okay. Any questions? Thank you. And 11 C is also yours. Uh 11 is the appointment >> your microphone. Sorry. Sorry. >> Is the appointment of the voting delegate for this annual business meeting that you just discussed. Okay. Any questions about that? Okay. Thank you. Approval of the district-wide school emergency plan. Any questions or discussions? That's already been presented to us at
033past meetings. No questions. Discussions. Okay. All right. We'll turn it over to Mr. Carlson, beginning with E. Item E is the establishment of a scholarship in memory of Willie White who is a custodian uh who uh for more than 50 years in the district who worked a lot with the athletics department. Uh this uh passed away uh sadly two years ago. Uh this this uh his family would like to uh establish a uh uh scholarship fund in his memory and this request comes through Kevin Finity. That's that item. Uh when we get to acceptance of donations, there's a first of a few donations to that scholarship fund. They'll get to that in a second. Uh the next item uh participate in cooperative bids. Uh there are two bids. Uh one is that town of Babylon
034has a contract for landscaping materials and the shore waiting school uh shore waiting river school district has a contract for boiler service and repairs and um in provision with uh New York state law. uh we can piggyback on those contracts and that's uh what that item is. Uh the next uh two items uh one is are related to uh specialed uh services contract. The first is a tuition contract uh with an outside agency and the other is a contract with two agencies for providing service tutoring services to special education students. uh both of those uh in um accordance with uh uh students IEPs. Um item uh I is the acceptance of donations. Uh we have um several donations. Uh the first is very some office supplies donated by Miss uh Deborah Jordano to Al Arrowhead
035Elementary School for students to use. Um well, it's office says office supplies really classroom supplies. uh a drafting professional drafting table uh donated by uh Miss Joanne Touch uh our uh technology department can use that. And then we have three uh the first of three checks uh uh three of the first checks into the Willie White scholarship fund. One is a check for $100 from Miss Linda Barrett, a check for $100 from Miss Vicky Goldfarb, and a check from $25 from Lester and Susan Rabbits. That's all to the Willy the brand new Willie White scholarship fund. Item J is declaration of ser surplus equipment. There's a list of uh Chromebooks that are all uh have outlived their usefulness. Uh all the item serial numbers are listed. And then we have uh a whole list of
036surplus textbooks. Uh there's a number of them uh in various uh buildings around the district. Mounty Arrowhead and uh Gelenus. Um, this was all uh due to new uh programs and uh obsolete uh uh textbooks and that is it for me. >> Okay, thank you so much. Any questions about any of those items? All right, we'll turn it over for uh beginning with L. Dr. Biscari. >> Thank you. Um, so we have a rising 10th grader uh who's a Girl Scout who is requesting uh to perform her Gold Award um at Masaki Elementary School and her project is inclusive of around 10 posts placed throughout the back field and there's going to be a story that's associated with these posts. So there'll be parts of a story at each of these posts and the students
037will have some sort of uh physical activity that they would have to perform in between the posts. So, it's um it's really making sure that uh it's promoting physical activity and reading throughout the back of uh of the Minnesota field and she is requesting permission to um move forward with that project. Uh M is an affiliation agreement with Emerson College uh for clinical placements and affiliation agreement with Mercy University. Uh same for field placements for their students. Uh O is an affiliation agreement with St. John's University. Um same and P is our annual um uh approval of our multi-tered system of supports or MTSS plan formerly known as our RTI plan that you approve each year. Um Q is our professional learning plan update uh formally the professional development plan that we have to submit
038to the state every year. Um R is our impartial hearing officers. We got a revised list from New York State uh requesting your approval of the new hearing officers and asked is the revised uh members of committees on special education for the 2526 school year. >> Thank you. Any questions or discussion on any of those items? All right. T. Recommendations of the committee on special education subcommittee and 504 accommodation plan meetings as dated. U recommendations of the committee on preschool special education meetings as dated. And beginning with V through Y, Dr. Dresky. >> Very good. Um V amen agreement between the three village central school district and the three village uh administrators association. Uh this was as a result of the elimination of an administrative position. Uh we needed to augment and revise the titles
039within the TVSA contract. Um W memorandum of agreement between the three village school district and the administrators association mentoring stipen. Uh that was as a result to augment the mentoring stipens that have been I guess in existence for the last 20 plus years. Uh we kind of we we changed that a little to keep up with the times. Um X appointment of additional school physicians. We have received um additional recommendations from our chief medical officer Dr. Susman. Um he has added on a number of physicians who have all gotten fingerprinted checked, background checked and now ready for approval. um why appointment of substance abuse related service coordinator. Um if you recall we do this we do this appointment um every July but because we were in the process of finding a new candidate we now
040have one um and this is a state mandated to provide. >> You're welcome. >> Any questions about any of those items? All right. You want to do AA? >> Absolutely. Uh um aa personnel items non-instructional. Uh we've had several non-instructional retirements at this point, 24 non-instructional resignations. Um conversely, 23 non-instructional appointments, including food service workers, and have had 18 childcare assistants. Uh we've had several non-instructional stipens, uh 10 non-instructional substitute appointments, non-instructional hourly extra assignments, um several appointments with our community swim, uh finishing up our summer recck program appointments, and non-instructional appointments to this extended school year program. >> Thank you. Any questions about that? Okay. All in favor of all of the items mentioned in the consent agenda? No opposed. No abstension. consent agenda carries. Thank you so much and we will turn it
041back to you Dr. Dresky for item 11Z. >> 11Z C personal items instructional certainly. Um now that the year has started, we now start with our instructional retirements. Again, we do have one teacher with the mid-year retirement as well as two teaching assistants for mid-year retirements. Uh we have 24 instructional resignations. Uh this is the time of year that we kind of make up for um a lot of things going on in the summer and people leaving us for other assignments because they've either been with us full or part-time. Uh you are approving one instructional leave of absence, 17 instructional appointments which include teachers, leave replacement teachers, um part-time teachers, um school nurse, school psychologist, and school social worker. 22 instructional substitute appointments including 14 teacher subs, five TAs and three nurse subs. Um several
042co-curricular and annual extra assignments uh for 2526 school year and several summer work and summer program assignments and adjusting to their assignments. I may as well uh one of the things we've been discussing with keeping the board informed we've been keeping an eye as we have every year with the class sizes in the elementary levels and we are very conscious of the fact that if things start to grow uh the board had given us the ability to address class sizes in elementary of 27 or higher. We have a couple of sections in uh two of our schools that are looking around 26. And while it may not necessitate having um the full-time teacher in there to break it up, especially at this late juncture in the uh summer and with the start of school being
043next Tuesday, our recommendation would be to put u TAs in those settings to assist those teachers with those larger than class sizes than comparatively to other class sizes. Not that if you other districts, people from other districts look at this and say, "Well, our class sizes is larger." But for us, we want to support our teachers and the students in the classroom as best as possible. Ideally, that would be making the class sizes smaller, but as we said, at this juncture, it's never works out well when you're trying to break up a class 3 days before we're opening. Um, so the TA support is something we will look to do. This is just to keep the board informed. It's not something that you need to provide approval for this evening, but it's part of the
044overall plan that you provided us earlier in the year. So hopefully this will address some of the issues. Ideally again going forward as we will keep examining this numbers increase and we may be back here at the table discussing at what other things we may need to do moving forward. >> Dr. Scan then as a result what we're going to probably use we're going to need the next board meeting for is to recall some of the folks we've accessed in some of these areas in terms of seas and monitors and teaching assistance. >> Excellent.
