005of command however for whatever reason you can come to a board member and resources to clarify what that was for work so this um policy number 3112 is a first reading so really there is no action on this policy for tonight it'll be a vote at the next board meeting um so next down under professional staff um it's like Shannon permission to post some positions yes I'm gonna yes I'm going to take these actually um the first um is for permission to post a teacher for a night school for the high school for first semester and is it okay if I put the second semester with that approval I think so yes so it comes up quickly on us in January so we always try to do it in the fall so we're ready to
