001Call this meeting to order. Sunday, December 8th, 2025. Verification of meeting posted. This meeting was posted in accordance with all open meeting laws. Attendance roll call. >> All right. Thank you. Have a quum. And if everybody could stand and Chris, Please in the pledge of >> allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for it stands one nation under God indivisible with liberty and justice for all. >> Thank you. All right. Moving on to motion to approve the agenda. Any discussion? All in favor say I. I oppose. >> Motion carries. And we move on to number two, recognitions. >> All right. Well, it is once again my privilege for the fourth time in the sport of cross country to recognize LAN Schutz for her incredible performance at the WIA
002state championship meet. Um was chatting a little bit with her beforehand. Usually, it's pretty special if you get a chance to recognize a student one time in their athletic career. To have that opportunity four times in a single sport is absolutely insane. And this will be your seventh time being in front of our school board being recognized for these type of performances. Um, I'm wondering if we shouldn't get you a name placard and perhaps a seat up here with us if you're willing to stay a few more years. I'm open to it. There's a lot of space at this table. >> Yeah, I'm pretty lonely up here. Yeah. >> Um, and as much as we are excited to recognize you for this incredible athletic accomplishment, um, had the privilege to see you at the D1
003scholarship signing where you she'll be heading to the Badgers next year to continue her career in track track and field and cross country. Um, the athletic success is one thing, but to do so with such dedication to our classrooms and to being an outstanding human and role model in our building. Um, as much as it's fun to celebrate these these just incredible accomplishments. I hope you understand the ripple you've had in our school system and it's not just at the high school. Uh, happen to be at a cross country meet here and there are a lot of younger students here and when you would go by the number of our younger kids like that's Ella, that's Ella. um you are truly a role model in every sense of the fashion. So, thank you for your
004incredible work. If you wouldn't mind coming up, we'd like to present you with a certificate. Certificate of appreciation. School presents the certificateful contribution to the high school girls team achieving exceptionally high in the 202 girls cross country state championship. Our next recognition is our WASBY honor roll recognitions. Um, we had two companies that were not able to be in attendance last week and I believe they're unable to or excuse me last month and unfortunately I don't believe either are here. The Lakatas I don't believe are present. nor is Husky Tree Service, but we would still like to honor them with recognition of what was submitted by our board members for their incredible service to our school district and community. So, Miss Ber Husky Tree Services has been a dedicated supporter of Mosquari School District, providing
005essential resources to enhance student and staff environments. This past year, they efficiently managed storm man storm damage, keeping playgrounds, paths, and entryways accessible, minimizing disruptions. More than a vendor, Husky Tree Services is a true community partner committed to creating safe, welcoming spaces for learning. Their contributions reflect a deep investment in our school's well-being. And the other is Tony Laicata, cement contractor. They have been a dedicated supporter of Mosquo Norway School District, showing a strong commitment to student, staff, and the community over the past year. Their contributions have extended beyond professional services, significantly impacting Mosquo youth through generous sponsorships and active involvement in school initiatives. Their leadership exemplifies hard work, community pride, and partnership, highlighting the vital role of local business and public education. Their efforts create a culture where students feel valued beyond the classroom.
006So, thank you to both of those. All right, moving on to public comment and there is no one signed up to speak. So, we will move on to consent agenda. Motion to approve consent agenda. >> Is there any discussion or does anybody want something removed for individual consideration? All right. All in favor say I. I opposed. Motion passes. Student representation. >> Okay. Hi guys. Uh at the elementary schools, they're all getting super excited to have their winter concerts, which is a really fun opportunity for the kids to showcase what they've been learning in music classes and to kind of get the holiday spirit up. Lake View also had their one book, one school project with Dogtown along with a bunch of others community service projects that were really awesome to see. Mil Valley's 12 days
007of holiday spirit celebrations began on the 4th, which includes fun dressup days for students and staff and also promotes giving back to uh the city with donations to the uh mosquito food pantry and even some clothing drives. At the middle schools, Lake Denon will be hosting a winter wonderland dance/open gym on the 12th. It'll be open to all students from Lake Denoon and Mosquito Lakes and it will include concessions, a DJ, dancing, open gym, and raffle prizes. At the high school, they're hosting their career day tomorrow, which is a great chance for students to talk to members of the community about jobs they're interested in and learn about the roles of their career. For clubs, Shrek the Musical auditions just ended with rehearsals starting soon. We cannot wait to see how amazing they do this
008year. And for sports, a few weeks ago, we had the division one and division two athletic signing day. This year, we had 14 students signing at these high levels, which we are so proud of. And winter sports season is now officially in full swing with boys and girls basketball and the wrestling team starting in the past few weeks. So, yeah, perfect. All right, that's it. Thank you. >> If I could just add a little bit to that couple of things in there I really think stand out. Um, of those 14 students who signed Division 1 and two athletic scholarships, their cumulative GPA was a 4.2. I mean, when you talk about incredible, and yes, Ella was one of those students. But what an awesome reflection of a school system when some of your shining stars
009are not just shining on an athletic forum, but they're shining in the classroom first and foremost. And again, when your role models are people that really dedicate themselves in the classroom first, it really has a huge ripple for us. So, huge thank you to all those student athletes and families that have supported them. And then just a shout out to Dog Town as well. That was a great book. If you didn't get a chance to read it, there's also a dog costume that can come along with that that I also highly recommend if you're looking for a good opportunity next year. >> Moving on to the superintendent report. >> All right. It is my pleasure to introduce our Lake Denon administrative team to present their eye in the gold progress. >> I didn't know I
010was following dog pound. >> Well, welcome to Lake to Noon, home of the Timberwolves. Uh we really appreciate the opportunity on a yearly basis to share the great work that's happening here. uh not only for our staff but our students as well. When considering what makes Lakeon special, it comes down to one thing and it's really the people. Our commitment and belief in our students is at the center of everything that we do. It's a privilege to be able to work alongside our students. Simply put, middle school students are the best, and our middle schoolers are no exception. In the four years they spend with us, they learn and grow so much. During their time at Lake Denon, our students find their voice and explore their interests. They shift from learning to read to reading
011to learn. They master higher order thinking. They develop greater self-management skills when it comes to studies. They become stronger advocates for their needs. If you've ever lived with a middle schooler, you know that they also test boundaries, which isn't always a bad thing. and they develop the skills needed to navigate complex relationships. Their experience in middle school is a shared experience. They work together, they learn from each other, and they cheer each other on. The talents of our students uh really extend beyond the classroom. It's during this time they have the opportunity to explore interests and passions. From art to choir to band to athletics and any of the other clubs that we offer, our students shine in many ways. And while these opportunities are great for developing a skill or furthering an interest, it
012really is an opportunity for them to meet like-minded individuals and expand their social connections. This year we're pleased to say that we uh we offer 24 total sports and clubs here at Lakeon. Uh oh. There we go. All right. So, on their journey, they strengthen bonds with existing friends and they make new friends along the way. Our Timberwolves are a big part of what makes our school special. We're proud to be a part of their story. And when they do exit our doors as eighth graders, we're not just sending off future high schoolers. We're sending off and launching confident, capable students ready to meet the challenges of their future. Our staff um simply said they're amazing. Their singular focus each and every day is on our students, how we can support them as learners, and
013how we can come alongside them on their middle school journey. They embody our commitment as a district to continuous improvement. They believe strongly in the power of collaboration, knowing that together they can do so much more than any one individual. If you can see them on PD days, it's very common and to see them sharing ideas and putting their heads together around the next unit or the next strategy that we're learning about or practicing. If you came in to see a PLC meeting, you'd see them sharing expertise, coming around data cycles to see how students have done and then next steps for students at all levels. When departments meet or grade levels meet, you're going to see them aligning expectations and coming together to support students in whatever way possible. The impact of our staff
014extends beyond our classrooms. They were part of many of our committees from our tier one and tier 2 support team to our academic and career planning team to student recognition, building leadership team, PLC leads, and our newest committee that we're forming is our executive functioning committee. They engage in serious work on a daily basis and yet they make sure to have fun along the way, never taking themselves too seriously. Our school celebrations would not be possible without the staff we have here at Lakeon. And that brings us to our PTO. They're fantastic. I mean, their singular goal is how can we support your students? How can we support good teachers? How can we enhance the experience students have here at Lake Denoo? And what I really appreciate about this group is they navigate the challenge
015of working with middle schoolers. They don't want to be seen as elementary. Anything that happened at the elementary level, we can't touch. Color runs, not fun anymore. Not cool, you know. So there's a lot of cool things that we've done at the elementary level and when you come here suddenly it's like nope. So they've been great about brainstorming and taking our ideas and for the last two years now we've run what we believe to be our signature fundraising event which is our foam run. And at the heart of the foam run yes it's a fundraiser but they wanted first and foremost it just be a fun event for all students regardless of if they fundra or not. We hold it during the day. It is an absolute blast. And along the way, they were really
016creative with incentives. Pizza lunches, homework passes, wireless earbuds, Nike tennis shoes. They're trying to meet the students where they are. And it's really working. Um, and they wrote me in. They said, "Hey, we want to set a goal as a building. If if students meet it, can they tape you to the wall?" Absolutely. So, you can see in a few photos, I was taped to the wall over a series of four lunch periods. Um, what's awesome about middle school is they're really um really creative and and they take the opportunity when it's presented to them. So, you'll see I was rocking a a different haircut that day. That was courtesy of an eighth grader. She knew I was going to be a little tied up that day. So, she came up with a big smile
017on her face and a wig and she just put it on my head and I just had nothing nothing I could do at only at that point because I was a little tied up and and unavailable. So, a ton of fun just having kids come up, tape me to the wall. the number of kids, you know, keep coming up, big smile. This is for the times you call me to the office, you know, just having a lot of fun. Um, so with the fundraiser that we we um we have, the PTO is working to how can we enhance your school? You'll see up at the top there, we have our high top tables in our library and a new um learning area. That was from last year. Kids love sitting there. It just enhances the
018space. This year, they're looking to use the funds that were raised for an outdoor classroom, which is going to be fantastic. Um, on top of the foam run, they do a great job of just spoiling our staff. On any given day, you can walk into the lounge all boom, there are a bunch of treats, drinks, snacks on the counter, they call it stock the staff. Um, and and that surprise is just a welcome surprise to our staff and they come in and see it. Stop in during staff appreciation week in May and they spoil us. You know, a meal every day, um, raffles, you name it. They they do they go out of their way to show their appreciation for the staff. And while all of that is great, we really appreciate the fact that
019they're just cheerleaders for our school and the great things that happen here. Um so beyond grateful for the work that they do uh and the energy they bring to our school. All right, let's pivot to some celebrations. Our achievement remains high and it's a strength for us. As measured by our recent state report card, we're number 16 in the state out of 345 public schools in achievement. And that puts us in the top five percent of schools in Wisconsin for achievement. Our math achievement remains high, very strong. 83% of our students last year were advanced or meeting on the forward. And that puts us at fifth in Waka County in achievement in math. Our reading achievement, you can see there in a bar graph, it continues to climb at a steady rate. And we're really
020pleased to say that in the four years that you see the see up there in the work we've done, the number of students that are meeting or exceeding expectations on the forward exam has grown by 18%. Over four years and each year you see an increase year over year over year. All in all, the success that you see up there in regards to our achievement is a result of our teachers, the hard work they do to refine our PLC cycles and deliver delivery of instruction. They've really dug in to improve what we do for our students and it's showing in achievement. All right, another celebration academic and career planning. We've talked about this a number of schoolboard meetings to evolve and work through. It really started with a group of committed teachers and staff that
021said this is of let's go ahead and have ACP lesson ACP advisors. is build a portfolio and a sandbox how the lessons laid out and we refined it and last year was year two and at the end of year two had our spring ACP conferences there one answer after school. How was your day? Fine. What'd you learn? You know, was you know I had no idea my daughter had aspirations to go into healthcare. Wow. piece around. Take a look at item that parent responded to. My child has the opportunity to explore school. It was the hard work of the teams that put the students did and that learning led to a parents. So really excited to see where we go with this. CP has gone Most a lot of people weren't aware of it. Just
022something that's front and center in our students come here and they see Lakeon as a place where they feel like they belong and they're valued. So the idea that I have one at least one friend at school 4.72 one year to the next celebration students have meaningful connections with their feeling acceptance said you're willing to take risks in the classroom when you're willing to take risks in the classroom that's when you really achieve that's huge celebration the other two I want to highlight my teachers challenged me to think and learning is important at my school both of them highlight the understanding students have that we have high expectations for them and high expectations communicate the students that you belong here. You're capable of the work putting in front of you and your effort. Finally, reinforce
023routines and the theme that we've about each these board meetings worked hard, got my work all done. Um, you know, those comments over time start to create a real force around my teachers do care about me. And what happens naturally is relationships strengthen. And when relationships strengthen, we're more likely routines and expectations. So, it's really been a helpful tool. It helps help our students. Now you'll see that 74% of our students, those are students that exited tier This is that a little bit differently. We looked at it with our leadership team and our PLC leads. And what we looked at for each student was a combination of where is their achievement and where's their growth and how do the two correlate because the two do tell a story. And when we look at the two,
024we can get an idea of what's at play for those students and what are our next steps. So the data that we looked at with those two teams, we brought to our PLC's on our our last PD day. And we had our PD our PLC teams analyze the data. We had them analyze it three different ways. The first way they analyze data was they took a look at the data for their students last year. Why look backwards? It's important to look back to get a sense of what was the impact of your work. If I look back with my PLC and our students grew at a an accelerated rate, the strategies we used last year had an impact and we need to continue those strategies forward and we also need to share them out because
025they can have an impact on other PLC's that are still working to improve growth. The other piece is we might look at data and realize that our team didn't move students as much as we had hoped. So what are some strategies we need to refine or potentially end and start and and then what are new strategies to start at. So taking a look back is important before looking forward. Along with looking back at students that we worked with last year, we took a look at how did other PLC's in our building perform last year. We have PLC's that are showing accelerated growth and we have individuals that are doing that too right within our building. So we have expertise in our building and other PLC's were able to see that and then action plan around
026that. Who are some teams that you want to talk to next? What are you going to ask them? Who are the individuals you want to seek out? Do you want to go see them in their classroom? What questions do you have for them? So really pushing teams to let's share expertise. That's what our tight PLC's do. But let's think about it much bigger as a PLC as a building. So leveraging the expertise within the building, the people that are getting results. And then finally, our teams took a look at the students that are in front of them now. So if I was a teacher in the in a in a literacy or math class, I would have looked at my current students. Who are the students who had high achievement and high growth last year?
027Those are the students that I need to make sure I continue to deliver rigorous instruction to and push them forward. We have to keep them moving upward. Who are my students that had high achievement but low growth? I need to dial in on them. Are they engaged on a daily basis? How how do I ensure that I'm engaging them? How do I make sure that they know what they're doing and why they're doing it each and every day? And I need to make sure their instructions rigorous because they can get to proficiency easily. That's great. We got to push them further, too. So, making sure we dial up that rigor. The other piece is, okay, I might have some students who are not high achieving yet, but they had high growth. Those are students last
028year that started closing the gap for themselves. They're not proficient yet, but they're on the road. Who did they work with last year and what can they share about the work they did with that child? It could be around relationships. It could be about instructional strategies. It's hard to say. We need to reconnect with those teachers to figure out what was happening then and how do we leverage that moving forward. And then finally the other group would be okay these students are not achieving yet and they have low-end growth. Couple things we need to really look at which each and every day and each and every skill we work with. What are some of the prerequisite skills they might need? What are the misconceptions they might have? Be really targeted and in filling those gaps
029and also giving them instruction at tier one with rigor. If we can close gaps, clear up misconceptions, while still providing instruction at grade level with rigor, we can move them either up into that range where they're not proficient yet, but they're showing high growth or they're or they're proficient in showing high growth. So, there's a pathway. And what was great about that last piece where we were looking at students student by student and what groups they fall into, that was our leadership team. As we talked to the leadership team, we shared data with them. They said, "I need to see students that I'm with right now. I want to know who's in front of me right now, and I want to get an idea of which which area they fall into because there's some actionable
030steps I can take with them right now." So, we're really excited about that piece. We also benefit from strong collaborative relationships um our teams at Lake Noon along with teams at Mosquito Lakes um allowing us not only to learn from their successes, but we learn together on PD days and on other day other days when our teams connect. So there's a real strong connection between the two buildings where there's learning that goes back and forth. As we've looked at the data and we've looked at what's worked for students, we've noticed that those students that are are achieving at a higher growth have higher levels of executive functioning. That's led to some increased independence and student agency in the classroom. They reflect at a higher level and they have a stronger ability to attack rigorous work.
031So, one of the pieces we're looking to do this year in addition to everything I shared already is we've put together a group of people um where we're going to start digging into the idea of developing a comprehensive approach to executive functioning at Lakeon. The idea that if we improve executive functioning at Lake Noon, we can improve things like working memory. We can improve things such as avoiding distraction. Things that will keep students from missing out on instruction, but now tuning into instruction. We can also work on for our students who are already proficient but maybe not showing the growth we want yet. How do we help them handle a more self-directed environment? When a teacher is working in a skill group, how do we have students who are self-directed and self-motivated to know like
032here are the things I need to do and here's why I need to do them. and how do we create create high rigor tasks and and improve their ability to work with those. So we know that rigorous instruction drives student achievement. Rigorous is our daily difference as well and um we are taking necessary steps to continue our work in improving student growth at Lake Dune. And I want to just by sharing a great always and ready to do whatever energy and advocacy come here. um their input informs our decision- making and their involvement is greatly appreciated. And then finally to the school board, thank you for your support not only for our system but for Lake Newon. It's uh appreciated more than you know. So again, thank you for the opportunity to share a state
033of where we are at Lake Don. Any questions? >> I was just curious if you talked about all the great things that you're within this organiz, you know, within this building. Y >> do you also collaborate with Mosqu Lakes at all with some of your um learning, you know, because just to see if there's some things that you can take away from their building? >> Yep. >> Yeah, for sure we do. Um there there it's a combination of structured collaboration and then more informal. Um so structured, our last PD day was a vertical day. So um I happen to be working with our fifth grade ELA team. Um the Mosquito Lakes fifth grade ELA team. We had so we had cross u middle school collaboration that whole day but then on top of that we've
034um we've had teachers reach out to their PLC's informally to get a sense of what's happening our coaches collaborate if not on a weekly basis certainly bi-weekly basis there and sometimes it's through structured district meetings other times they're just setting up their own meets to talk about how are you moving students I just saw the latest data tell me about your fifth grade or tell me about your sixth Um, I'm currently I was on on our PD day. I was going around just working with teams and I was talking with an eighth grade math teacher and she's like, I want I want to get over there. I heard, you know, when we were collaborating this morning, I heard some of the things that they were talking about. I'd love to get over there to see
035some math in action and to see their people see. I'm like, awesome. Let's work on getting making that happen. Um, so at the teacher level, at the coach level, and then Rachel and I collaborate all the time. Sometimes again formally at LT meetings and other times is morning phone calls, afternoon phone calls just what are you doing? What do you think of this? So ton of collaboration. The lines are are wide open. Um and the teams are um really engaged with each other. >> Is this grade this eighth grade grade the one that you started with when you first started here? >> That was last year. Yeah, that was a great group. Um, not not because it was the first one I worked with, but honestly what was great about that group was they were
036the first group that, you know, we talked about the the changes and routines and expectations and some of the things that we rolled out that year. That's all they knew, you know, and it really showed by the time they got to eighth grade and how they were as eighth graders. And hearing about them as freshmen and, you know, some of the great things that are coming out of out of there, it it was a special group for sure. Are you finding that any of any of the executive functioning areas are standing out more than others? >> It's something that we're looking at. We're really early in the process, but I would say um independence is one we want to look at is independence is a global piece, but then we have to unpack what makes
037a student independent, you know. So there could be an organizational piece to it. um there could be a stamina piece, you know, working memory or the ability to access tools. So, um that's going to be the step of our team right now is what we're looking to do with that executive functioning committee is mirror very much what we did with our ACP committee. Um do a lot of learning first and then do some dreaming and figuring out like what's our entry point. So, it's going to be a multi-year um approach, but we're going to look for our early entry points and our ultimate goal with that committee is our teachers do great work and they work incredibly hard. Um but if we can align our work around executive functioning, so a student who may struggle
038with it in fifth grade gets used to a routine and when they get to sixth grade, regardless of the teacher, whatever they see from from an executive functioning standpoint is familiar. That's a win. Now, what it looks like in fifth grade to eighth grade will be different. But there should be some connective tissue between each grade where that next change is like okay this makes sense versus like okay now I have this teacher and I have to come learn a whole complete system. So um so we don't have something yet u but we're excited to dig in. We're really excited about the potential and the staff is excited about it. >> Thank you very much. >> Thank you. Appreciate it. Thank you very much to the Lake Toot administrative team and Chad. I really appreciate
039the number of times you express gratitude to your staff. Um, every time I've been in your building, it's been inspiring to hear the different collaborative teams talking. um the last vertical professional development day where it was vertical in both uh Mosquo Lakes and Lake Denon staff were talking in grade level groups. It was awesome to hear the um energy and the excitement from both groups kind of learning together and sharing what things were similar, what things were different and coming around like really what can we do that's best for kids. So excited about things to come. So a lot of great work happening there. The final item on the superintendence report is just a reminder that we have our upcoming um WASBY uh state education convention coming up in January. If you are interested in
040attending that, if you could please let Lori know um and we will get you registered for that. But that concludes the superintendent's report. >> Moving on to other reports. president report.

And then also it reflects the new timeline for the annual meeting to be held in September. All right. Next one is vacant land. >> Hi. We have uh two properties. One in Mosquo Lakes that was purchased in 2017. So when we built the school, we actually had to buy a house that was adjacent to the school so that we could get emergency services into the school from a route that's not the main drive. Uh so we've been maintaining a home off of High View Drive for five years now. Um or since 2018. In
046addition to that, the back half of Mosqual Lakes property, which is separated kind of by a large um retention pond, uh is vacant land. We currently lease it to a farmer that farms it for us. Um we're currently working through a land division process to delineate those properties from Mosqual Lakes Middle School and if there's appetite from the board and if we determine uh it's feasible to potentially look into a development um on that property. So right now we are just going through the land division process which would require city approval to approve that zoning to then be residential. After that, if the board had an appetite to to sell the property or have it developed, we would have to come forward to you all to have a resolution to sell it. And from there,
047we would work with either developers or biders or whatever process we'd outline um to sell the land. And then you all would have to approve the ultimate sale of that land. So far, we're just in the exploratory work, working through all of that. There could be some environmental studies that have to happen. Uh could be some push back through the city or other avenues. So, uh, we're just doing exploratory work. Uh, the second property is at Mil Valley and it's something we really hadn't considered before, but north, I'm sorry, south of Fleet Farm and north of the funeral home, there's a large stretch of property there. Right now, there's a parking lot and a woods and based upon Fleet Farm coming to town, there might be uh a larger value to having something commercial in
048that strip between those two properties. So again, just doing exploratory work. It would be pending city approval to reszone those areas and really there'd have to be an ROI justification for us to make that move to do that. So we would continue to keep you all informed as we go through these processes. We would also have to do an appraisal of the properties to to see what the values are of those properties, too. >> Would selling that house or that property affect emergency being able to get in that way? Yeah. No. Uh, we would go through the process to delineate and maintain that drive. In all likelihood, somebody might tear down that house and make it a roadway into a future neighborhood, which would then the drive connecting to Mosskele Lakes would then become connected
049to the road that heads back there. But we would need to maintain that forever. >> Okay. >> In some for fashion. Would the sale of the Mil Valley property remove emergency services or will we have to put that in as part of it? Because it's kind of like an access point. >> Actually, I wish it was an access point. It's not. And the county won't allow us to designate traffic to come in that way. So, they can only come into that parking lot. So, really, it isn't designated as an emergency access as is. I wish it was. >> Okay. And they wouldn't is so we had to do it from Mosqual Lakes. Is it because the way that the parcel's divided that there's no way to get a secondary entrance? >> Yeah, I think because
050Hillenddale's north south you can come from both ways to get into the site. >> Okay. >> That that really long drive in Moskega Lakes that would have been the only point of access and there's car and fire there. They have to have another way to get around. >> Got it. Okay. Is there back road or is it closed off? >> Uh the Mosqual Lakes back road is permanent. Uh it's in a gate, a lock gate, so emergency responders have a key to the gate to open it if they need to. >> As well as you shouldn't. >> Jeremiah with the the property at Mil Valley, how would that affect the baseball field related to there? Because I know we ran it out. Yeah, we would try to keep it tight. When I met with the
051surveyor who's local here, trying to keep a legal outfield and then potentially a fence might have to go in to separate that from the property. On the surface, it looks small, but it's actually a fairly large swath of property between Rine Avenue and that baseball field. So, we would try to maintain an outfield there. You >> actually have a fence on that. >> Oh, yeah. Sure. If somebody wants to purchase one, Any other questions? >> Thank you. Moving on to number 11. You'll find your followup there. And number 12, motion to adjourn. All in favor say I. >> We are adjourned.
