001meeting to order. Everyone can please rise for the pledge of allegiance. It is 5:31. 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. Roll call, please. Juan Castillo, president. Clerk, present. Christina Clark, member present. Laores, member present. Louisa Areola, member. We have a quum. Thank you. Are there any comments from the audience? No, we do not. Okay. Thank you. We're going to move on to 3.1. Martin Velasco, director of facilities. Good afternoon. Can I just give a little bit of a brief? Um, I had asked Mr. No, Mr. Velasco, you can go ahead and step to the microphone. I'd asked Mr. Velasco to come and uh give us a small presentation of the
002projects that we have been able to accomplish this year. members. Good afternoon, Mr. Don Kins and colleagues. Uh today's uh presentation is a brief report of uh facilities maintenance projects that have taken place uh for school year during school year 2425. Uh now please note this is just a uh uh uh review of some of these projects. Uh um in addition uh we still uh attend to overall daily maintenance operations of facilities across the district to include uh support staff uh locations as well as we support uh pretty much everyone across the district. Um, not sure if you have any any questions uh in reference. Um, so vision for for your next um big project like the SMS. Yeah, you know, uh that was I was I did a couple of projects prior to SMS
003roofing uh project, but this one really, you know, it really made me work. you know, it really, you know, I work so hard, but in the end, it's it's a good feeling because you see the the end product, you see your project coming to fruition and uh and it just gives you that energy to continue making progress. Uh the next one will be uh Orange Grove Elementary. We're looking at uh I've completed the assessment on the roof. Um there's currently design um currently going on right now. Uh we also have uh we just completed uh it's also on the list. Uh we just completed a turnkey uh fire alarm system for Orangeville. Uh if you can think of this uh we have a circa 1985 system in place throughout the years we we we managed
004and we we were able to to successfully apply for a grant. It's a lot of work, a lot of documentation, a lot of leg work that takes place. But again, I'm I'm trying to focus on the on the uh on those project projects that really really need our our attention, priorities. We're working down down the line. And for me, it's roofing right now because roofing pretty much protects everything down below. It's it's basically uh it protects the buildings to begin with. It protects, you know, classrooms down below. uh computers, uh computer devices, uh textbooks, pretty much everything down below. And uh so so for me, I'm working on Orange Grove. Next is going to be Desert Sonora as well as Tiara del, which is which are some of those older facilities that we have an
005eye already for for those projects. We're currently doing everything to get those submitted under uh building re renewal grants projects. So there's many many projects to come uh you know and uh I'm getting the support that I need uh as far as everything that I need is being provided to me so I can again continue to make traction on this projects and uh summer to middle school project is just shy of 6 million. Just think about 6 million. That's a lot of money, you know. And uh Wow. And not only that, but it also uh you know, supports the district's overall performance. I mean, you don't want to go to work to a leaking classroom. You don't want to go to work to you know, just just anything that you can think of uh in
006case of a rain event that you know, we we were we worked for several years. We we worked under duress and and under you know harsh circumstances but we were able to to finally uh you know uh get that project completed and again that's the final walkthrough will be next week and uh the architects will be here and pretty much all the professional services that that that were part of that project uh are going to also be part of the that Okay. Well, I really want to thank you for your hard work and your staff. Um, you know, I I I live behind the middle school and so I I saw it every day and and you know, um, thank you so much for all that you do, Martin, and your staff. Are you fully
007staffed? We are. We are fully staffed. And uh I'd just like to add, you know, um over the years uh you know, Summerton is home and Summerton is has given me the the the opportunity for uh growth at at Bassman and uh and this is just paying it forward, of course, you know, and anything that that I can do, anything that we can do as a department, you know, to support the the school and and everyone across the district, you know, uh hey, we're we're doing it, you know, and we're happy to do it, you Sweet. Well, thank you so much. And I do I would like to see, you know, if if it's an expenditure, like you said of a $6 million, I I think it's important for our community to know um not
008only because they see all the the machinery out there and and the work, but I think the community needs to know how much money it costs, right? And um even though it's not taxpayer dollars in Summerton, but it is part of the school's facilities board. And so that's the grant that that the school and you have worked really hard, the district and and you have worked really hard to obtain. You know, I would like to see it on our on, you know, sort of like a slideshow or a presentation, something on social media where, you know, um, it's being highlighted because it should be highlighted, right? Um, and also for the community to know, right? you know, SMS does a great job of of highlighting a lot of their stuff. And I think that's one
009of the great things that that is happening in our community through, you know, through SMS. And so, um, I think, uh, I think it should, you know, in my opinion, uh, be highlighted on on their page. And I agree. So people can see, right? People can see, you know, our community that we're we're it's not only all about academics, which you know is a huge part, but it also is because this is the home of our students and they spend most of their day here and so at their school. and and also to note that uh we're doing everything we can uh within our means and and then uh not only that but reaching out to other entities across the state for for because part of the responsibility of the state facilities board is uh
010to meet minimum requirements. So, so whenever I do my my analysis, I always try to focus on that and and tell a story and and have uh uh you know, justification that I can tell because it it's about it's a selling point. Hey, look, you know, come on down. Let me show you the worst. Let me show you the good, but also let me show you the worst. And uh you make you got to make time for something. You got to be here. I like to take you around and like I'd like to show you what we what we currently for those areas that are in dire need of uh funding for those renewal grants, right? Hey, I'd like to show you and this is me talking to my leazison. You know, it's just but
011again, and it's and it's about also building that rapport with your leazison to establish a good good rapport because if you're constantly butting heads, you're not going to get it's easier for that project, too. It's it's it's so it's about how do how do I how can I do my my job better and bring in those funding dollars but also again just just building that bridge just building that rapport and uh because I tell you at the beginning it was it wasn't easy and it's still not but I mean I I feel more um you know it's just like day and night from when I started to now it's like wow and again that just gives you more confidence and and and the want to do more, you know, hey, I hey, I've done it.
012I can bring in more, you know. So, again, I I I've had the support of the district administration. I work closely with uh Laura as well because that's a big piece. Uh that's a big piece too, finance. But, uh we're coming along and uh good things are happening again in summer. Great. Thank you so much for everything you do. Thank you, Martin. Appreciate it. We're going to continue on with 4.1. Mr. Lud, hello. Good afternoon, everyone. I think my mic is really high, but thank you for everyone for being here. I know that uh we're at the start of um some vacations, so some of our principles obviously are on vacation and some of our directors, but thank you for those of you who are here. I do have a couple of things to share.
013Um as you know, um our system board docs will be changing to uh diligent community. Um it's something that uh we've been prepping for this for the past few months. Uh it has been um finalized that that's going to be the move. Um it is basically the same as board dogs but upgraded to some extent. Um it will go live on July 1st. So, it really gives us the opportunity, July being a month where we don't have an official um board meeting to get acquainted with the new system and figure out some of those uh training days so that we can, you know, set those out for for all of us that need to really understand the new program. again. Uh when we were up in Atlanta, we met with a couple of um um
014you know, representatives of of of the new system and they were really excited to share that it is very very easy and manageable and so it it won't be something that is completely new to us, but it's definitely going to have more perks to it. Uh Antonio's also working on figuring out if the live stream um software that we have uh is the most apt to continue on. Um and if it's not, we will definitely look into getting something better for that. Um we also on another note obviously um uh Miss Torres, she officially submitted her letter um saying that she will step down as a board member. Uh we still have her until the end of June. So we still get to have Miss Torres today and also we have a mid June uh
015meeting and I know that she will be also here. we will say our proper farewells then uh to to to now we we definitely just have to say you know the the great things that you were able to do for our district and so again wait until midJune to to to have a proper goodbyes but I needed to share officially that that's the process we've been working with Tom her to initiate what would look like uh um the process to see who's going to be seeking out that that particular term Um and yes we are sad about it. Um last week uh Miss and I attended two conferences so it was a busy week. We were in leading change. Uh it was a great opportunity to just be with uh not only with each other
016but we had our principles and our um instructional strategists up there. Not only was it a great opportunity to collaborate together as a as a leadership as a district but also the sessions that we attended uh were pretty amazing. I mean some of you guys were there. Um there were uh sessions on writing. There were sessions on creating uh leadership teams. There was a lot of sessions on just refreshing and re-energizing what we currently have in our district. Um and then we ended our week in Flagstaff uh with the um ASBA uh conference where we joined Miss Clark and Mr. Castillo also for a couple of days of great learning uh great opportunities to continue to build that strong partnership between the board and and and the district. So that was pretty amazing. Um, today
017we met with Mr. Munoz to plan out the uh ribbon cutting of the new expansion. So that'll be in July 28th. I will be giving you additional information about it. Um, it's basically the day before we start school. So um, we told Mr. Munoz, you know, Mr. Munoz, if you can accommodate us during your open house, that'd be awesome. he got really excited and so we thought that would be a great opportunity to do uh our our reveal I guess and so again more information will come to you guys. Um, and before I I before I'm done, I there's a lot of activities happening in the summer. For us, summer is not a slow season for us is busy. And so, we're really excited because we will be having the data summit where we get
018a chance to meet with all our principles and teams, but we also have a three-day uh conference style training. And I think I've uh previewed you to some information in some of my reports, but it's getting closer and it's getting really exciting. And so I'm going to send you guys again the dates and hopefully you get a chance to be at least there in the very beginning so that I get a chance to introduce you and obviously so that you get a chance to see the greatness of of of it all. All right. Um any questions? Any questions? Do you guys have any questions? I just have a comment Mr. Don. really want to congratulate you and Miss Le for you know recently um I've seen a lot of the traveling and the um the
019training that you know leadership has gone even the the strategists and teachers and I don't think I' I've seen that in in my years that I've been here and so um I know that some principles would go and and and administration but now that I see especially that one where all of you went together. That was amazing. And you know, um sometimes it's good to go out and learn, you know, and and I know we don't have all that money to send everyone or go all the time, but we need to try our best to send, you know, people and and especially our principles, our assistant principles and our strategists there and a couple of teachers as well because, you know, our goal is to grow our own. And so um you know in the
020future hopefully our goal is is for someone to replace you right and to replace him and to replace the principles the teachers themselves as they grow um and in order for them to grow is to have that background knowledge and to have that growth and so um not that we want you to go anywhere. No but it's building capacity and future leaders. Yeah. Yes. And and I think we want to give that um that perception to the community and to all schools in Yuma County that, you know, our goal is for our teachers and our admin to grow and to be our future superintendent or to be our future uh principles and and not that they're stuck to be a teacher forever because there's no potential growth there. I want them to see that there
021is growth. Um, so I thank you and I congratulate you guys for for especially Laura too for finding all that money and letting them, you know, to go go but save money. She's been good at and that brings me to we will be going to the National Institute for Excellence in Teaching uh conference in two weeks. Uh we're taking a small small group because of funding but it's a very important conference for us to attend as we are currently building some of those structures to ensure that we provide that leadership. um follow through to to everyone within our schools and obviously within our leadership team. So that that's going to be coming up pretty soon. And also if you know if you could really um entertain that idea on sending may you know teachers that
022have been here for many years that you know they they need something like that. I I just in my opinion I feel they they do and just so they can go out and see what other schools and other other teachers are are doing at the you know get other ideas as well not just only the principles will go in and come back. Absolutely. That's just my my opinion. Thank you. Uh 4.2 is it? All right. Good evening everyone. Um I just wanted to share we have the first ever annual stuff the backpack fair. It's being put on by our Summerton Rotary um that Mr. and I are both part of. And so I'm the chairperson for this one. Um they wanted to do, you know, a supply run kind of like what is done in
023Yuma County and so forth. And as we were talking, we thought, you know, we get a lot of donations for backpacks, which is great. And some of them come with some supplies in them, but you know, minimal. And um so we brainstormed that it would be really great to have just the supplies. So they if they already had their favorite backpack and there will be some there as well, but they'll be able to stuff it with all of the supplies that we need for our schools, for our kids. And so this is really exclusive to our Summerton students. They really want it to be Summertonbased. So um we were going to have a fair though. We were going to make it a community event. So, we're asking for sponsors and so anybody can help us
024with getting some sponsorships and then they'll be able to have a booth, you know, advertise and also give out um materials that we'll buy. So, we collected all the supply lists from all the schools and we picked like the top 16 items that are common across the schools. So we could have, you know, there's the notebook table, there's the crayon table, there's a highlighter table, and then the kids can go around kind of like a a center style and get everything and visit the booths. And so we already have um quite a few uh vendors or you know, agencies who want to come. I know our adult education will be there, migrant education will be there. Um, we already had the Girl Scouts who called already the words out, so they want to come and
025have a booth and kind of share their information, but also be sponsors and and that kind of thing. So, that's exciting. That'll be on July 26th. Um, we targeted it after um the Yuma County has theirs, I believe, two weekends before prior. Um, and then our students can all come and also get their list from. We want to have for each of the schools their supply list there. Um and then that way they can pick it up and if they forgot what they need and then they can go around to the tables and also visit everything. Um so that'll be from 9 to 1 at Tierel Soul Elementary. Um I've also invited our law enforcement and we're reaching out to all of our local businesses to support us and that way our students can hopefully
026walk away with a backpack so full that their parents have to help them haul it out. Um, but that'll give them supplies to last a while. So, that's that's something new. It'll be our first annual with the Summerton Rotary and and um and Summerton School District. Um, another thing that you'll see on the agenda, too, is uh the AI policy that's coming up. That's been a collective effort um that we've had administration kind of look it over earlier in the year. We've had our technology director, instructional services, everyone's kind of perused it and put in some input. And then we had ASBA look it over and ensure that, you know, it follows what it needs to follow. And so as you look at that later, it's it's on the agenda to review and to approve
027hopefully that also has a student agreement that is um for AI. And then that goes along with the technology agreement that we have for students. That's okay, Jason. You don't need to find it. They'll they'll get to it later. Um but that is um that's what's up there. So that'll be able to be implemented this coming year. Um but the policy just to kind of give a brief the policy is not only about students and what they need to do but also about teachers and that's also going to be uh taught in our 3-day conference with the with the teachers. So there's a session in there that one of our lead teachers who's gone to a lot of AI kinds of technology we've asked her to be part of that. So she's working with Mrs.
028Fermanis to uh give a session there. So that'll be nice to have things all coordinated and then we um plan to continue that effort and really ensure that um we're using it properly that it's not a cheating tool that uh everyone is knowing how to use it appropriately to enhance their learning and um from for everyone for staff and students. So um and we're excited getting prepped like Mr. Don said for data summit and the conference and it'll be a fun summer fun start to the year. And we're prepping our guests too for the welcome back part two. Part two. Any questions for me? I just have I just I have a comment. Thank you miss and and for for that idea with the summer rotary and thank you for heading that. That's that's such
029a really cool thing to do. Um just a suggestion if you can uh include the city of Summerton um maybe they can help uh you know put it on on our website as well you know to reach it out with that part. Yeah. Um I think that would be a great idea to to to do. Um that's that's all I have. Thank you so much for that. Uh moving on board member reports. We'll begin with um um all right we can start with me. Um so as you all heard um I uh submitted my letter of resignation um very begrudgingly. I didn't want to do it. I want to stay. This is home for me. Um and I don't I'm not good with goodbyes. So um I'm just really grateful for the time that I've
030had here. Um my family and I are moving out of state. Um, and so we'll be moving in July. Um, and so hopefully, you know, that gives, um, somebody that's interested in this position. If you all know of somebody, you know, in this district, um, or in LA, because that's also our, you know, turf, um, you know, definitely encourage people to seek out this opportunity. It's been a great learning opportunity for me. I got to graduate from college while being a part of this. And I feel like that was um it just it went it just aligned well with my program degree and just being able to learn more about public education and and its significance and the history of it and you know um the documentation that you were talking about earlier, Mr. Lasco,
031you know, I want to see some before and after pictures, too, to document that history of all of the different upgrades and and just the history of of, you know, Summerton district, but of public education as a whole. Um, I've um I've fallen in love with learning and with school. So, I'm going to continue to go to school and um you know, when I am in Utah, I hope to also, you know, bloom where I'm planted there. I'm going to continue to serve and hopefully, you know, help with ptls or PTO's or whatever they're called there. And um but I'll definitely stay involved with my kids schools and um I'll you know I'll be I'll be stopping by to visit. Um I'll still continue my work at Compassino. So um I'll get to be a
032part of the community to an extent. So um just grateful for all of you and the work that you've done. Summerton district is such a special place and um yeah definitely sad to go. Um, but I'm glad I got to experience that first uh promotion at the park with at the middle school. That was so cool. And so, thank you um, you know, to the SMS team for that. And and all the work that you guys are doing as well, Miss Day, Mr. Ludon. Um, and yeah, I mean, again, I can probably say more um at the next meeting, but not good with goodbyes. There will be tears. Um, I I cry anyway. You guys know that. So, um, but no, that's that's it for me, but thank you all. Um, well, Miss Torres, I
033just want to let you know, I know it's not goodbye because, you know, we're friends in and out of the board here, but, uh, it's been the utmost pleasure to serve alongside you and learn together and grow together, and it just reminds us why we're here serving our community as best we can, right? Um, but thank you for for everything you do. I'm going to miss your wise words of inspiration and your quotes at the very end of you know your speeches. But um that pulls me into um we did go to the ASBA meeting in Flagstaff and it just it's a reminder of why connections are so important because you get to you know not only connect with the ASBA uh staff um and ask those important questions that we have lingering in our
034minds or making those connections with people from around the state um revisiting friends we may have met in you know other conferences and whatnot. that I truly appreciate um I always appreciate, you know, the the fact I'm able to attend those those conferences on behalf of the Summerton School District. Um but yeah, those conferences have brought a lot of us together to get to know each other and to collaborate. Um so that's all I have, but thank you. Well, I'm not good with Dubai either, but I'll wait for the next meeting. But just a simple really quick, you're a beautiful person and inside and out. Lauren, you know, I appreciate your hard work and your dedication to our district and our community. You've done wonders for our kids and and just your vision and and
035the love that you you portray and you give in day in and day out. It's very appreciated and thank you for all that you do and best of luck. And you know, we're on YouTube. You can tune in. I'll be tuning in. one of our one of our viewers text us and say, "Hey, don't forget to mention this." And um we're just a text away, but it is a great move. Sometimes uh change is not comfortable, but if you embrace it with love and embrace it with hope, I think it's the best thing for you and your family. And so with an open mind and an open heart, you're going to do wonders. So, thank you for all that you do. Thank you. Um for me um SMS promotion as as M to said you
036know first time there and I'm glad I was there and it was beautiful and and it kind of threw me off guard on the the handing out of the you know the little promotions and stuff because there are some students that I wanted to and I didn't get to see them and you know I'm trying to turn around both ways but I see the vision and I saw the purpose and and um I just felt it went a little too fast. Um, but other than that, I mean, it was great. Beautiful. You guys did an amazing job. Well done. The community at first when it was published and I sent Om a quick text. I was like, "My phone is blowing up." Um, what do you mean at the park? And and so, um, you
037know, after I spoke to him, I I would respond. I said, you know, give them the opportunity. Just watch. It's going to be great. It's going to be great. Give them a chance. And it was great. you know, the the reports and and the the community um at first was kind of lost, but then after they went through it, I think the the responses were great. Um you know, I spoke to the city uh chief of police and she she also was like, you know, this is the best idea you guys had. Um you know, they they were they knew where where we were. they they were able to coordinate and and assist. And so on behalf of the the chief of police, she wants me to congratulate you. Um the SMS staff and of
038course administration for for having our promotion there. And I and I would like to continue it. You know, I had first said, "Please don't do it at the high school. Please, you know, I'm going to vote no on it." But the park was an amazing idea and so great job. Great job, you guys. Great job. That's true. Um, for student achievement that we had with the city of Summerton, um, I don't know if there was some sort of a disconnect or or what what happened. Um, maybe there was a loss in in in communication or we did um acknowledge some of the SMS staff, I mean students, I'm sorry, uh, to be acknowledged for the student achievement. So, what the city of Summerton is doing every year is we highlight those high achievers and sportsmen's
039um that you know went to state and so forth. And I know that there was some missing. So I'm not sure. And it's not only through SMS, but also through elementary, you know, like the, you know, the stars that went to state for was it for um the robotics. And I think those things need to be highlighted as well. And so I don't know how the email got to to principles or to you or who it went to, but um I did mention for them to meet with both of you um when that time comes again next year in order to highlight those students because it's a big deal. Absolutely. And they and the kids when they came up to get their certificate from the city from us and and their little gift and and
040pictures and stuff and you know it was pretty cool. It was pretty cool to see that. And so, um, if you could work with the city of Summer 10 for those student achievement, um, no matter what part, you know, chess club and, you know, whatever clubs that we have, they need to be highlighted. And also, um, parents have that opportunity to purchase those banners for $50 and then be highlighted for two months on Main Street. You know, how cool is that to see my son or daughter on Main Street. you know, the banner. I know it cost $50, but you know, maybe the parents weren't aware and it's just, you know, just the communication, but I think that um with the years, I know it's going to get better. So, I told them to work
041with you guys so we can highlight that as well. Of course. Thank you. Thank you so much. Uh moving on, let's see. Uh let's go to consent agenda. Is there anything on the consent agenda that uh the board would like to remove and discuss before we approve or deny? Okay. If I just need a motion, please. So move. A motion was made by Miss Clark to approve the consent agenda. Second. Second by Miss Doris. All those in favor signify by saying I. I. Any oppose? Motion carries. Let's move on to 7.1 approval proposed fiscal year 2526 budget. Hi, good evening. Um, so this is the proposed budget for FY26 presentation. So the numbers that we are working with we can see for M and the capital um those are the amounts that we anticipate for
042next year. Um we haven't gotten approval from the state yet from the state legislature. So these are just um these are these are just a proposed that eventually will change once it goes to the legislature. So, we're using the same base level support amounts. The 5,13, that's our current year base level support from the state. And then the district additional assistance, which is our capital, that doesn't change and it won't change. They're not proposing any increases for that. So, those are the numbers that we are working with. Um, so again, once they approve it, we'll have to do a revision and we will capture the new amount. They are proposing a 2% increase to our base level support for M. And so if that gets approved, our new base support level will be 5,113 per
043student, which is about $100 extra. And then again, there's no change. We don't see a change being proposed for our district additional assistance. The numbers that we're basing it off of, this is our proposed ADM current year. We always use the current year because we don't know what the next year is going to look like. We always throughout the year are able to capture if we have growth then we capture that growth and we get that additional funding. But when we do the proposed budget, we just use the current year funding and the current year ADM. And so our unweighted ATM for the year, we're ending at 2,841. Any questions so far? So for the FY26 that base level support um times our um times our ADM that's going to give us uh 22,000 but
04422 million and then for our estimated carryover expenses that's roughly going to be about 931,000. That's just estimated. We still have the incumbrance period to go through. So during the incumbrance period um we'll have additional expenses that we're closing out and then um we will be closing out POS. So we'll be able to have um additional funding in there as well. So that'll offset each other. So the budget limit that we're going to be working with is 23 million70 for our ML. For our DAA, our FY26 allocation is 1.5. This amount doesn't necessarily change because our district additional assistance funding is always based off of previous year ADM. So even if we do see growth next year, we won't capture that growth for our capital budget until the following fiscal year. So that amount doesn't
045really change. We're anticipating um carryover and interest of 1.3. So if we add that to our allocation, that'll give us a budget limit of 2.8 for next year. And then the next page just reflects our tax rates. Our primary assessed valuation increased um from from 116 million to 128. So our primary tax rate um is 1.71. It is slightly down from last year and that is because of our adjacent ways. Last year we asked for about 300,000 in adjacent ways money and that was to fund our traffic light in San Louise. that was the additional we needed. And so when I get to the next page, we are going to be asking for a little more adjacent ways, but it's not quite as much. So that's why we'll see a little dip in our um
046primary tax rate. And so these are just the equalization base rates. And you'll see our adjacent ways that we're asking for this year is going to be 94,490. And so that'll make our total tax rate at 1.7. Any questions? So just a little summary of our adjacent ways um funding. We know that we have the traffic light in San Louise and so we're working on finalizing that and paying it off. Um we did have the hammerhead that was that came about this current year. we were set to pay that out of our capital money. Um, but it did come to our attention that that particular area, the hammerhead, it qualifies for adjacent ways. So, we're actually able to um use the current, we've got it approved by the state, by the uh state facilities board.
047And so, we're able to now use the money that we've collected from taxpayers. We're able to now use that for that hammerhead, which is about 67,000. So, that'll put money back in our pocket. And then, um, that 94,000 that we're asking for, that will help fund the rest of the traffic lights since we're still working on that. Any questions? Didn't we have to have the traffic light before the opening open? Yes, and we are pretty much on timeline. Uh, and Mr. Lasco, if you want to speak on it, but we actually met today to discuss there was an additional cost in in a particular light that needed to be installed and that's been worked on. We should have the certificate of occupancy before obviously the the start of the school year. Uh we did give
048the green light to Mr. Munoz to open to start the enrollment process because we're very confident that we are going to have those classes open. Okay. So, Any [Music] questions? No, I just hear money back in our pocket and that's a great thing. So, that's all I heard. Just Just kidding. Thank you for all that you Thank you.
