001Call the meeting in order. All rise for pledge. 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. Public to be heard. None. Uh we're going to hire it. Yep. Okay. Um I'm up with the good news. Let's see here. uh from the high school, Tom Inglesby. Gretchen Moyer has been selected to the chair to chair the press corps committee at the Hilton model UN conference in October. Gretchen has won awards for her excellence in the press corps at the past two conferences that she that she has attended and is now taking on the leadership role to help support other aspiring journalists. Fant. Good job, Gretchen. um from Jackson, from Miss Nataro. Our Jackson
002primary teachers, all of them did an amazing job with our students and embracing the PLC process. Our data was off the charts and I'm very proud of all our students success. I would like to thank the Jackson teachers for a collaborative effort to endure. All students had a great academic year and there's plenty of more uh good news to read. So, please uh take a look at that for me. Um, next up, Mr. Joel Reed, Mr. Brennan Braggs. Thank you. Update on our athletics department. Good evening everyone. So, we're gonna just we thought put a presentation together. It's really a review of the year and maybe some upcoming things that just want to make sure everybody knows about some bragging points. Uh, Brennan and I are going to do this presentation together. Brennan being the
003athletic program assistant uh is we work hand in hand every day usually something to do with either scheduling or with working with physical education things uh as Brennan is also the department chair of physical education uh and then in addition to that he helps out with the middle school stuff whether it be AP so that's our testing for our kids that are hoping to move up levels and Brian also helps out with supervisories at different events you probably see him in some of those as So, so he's a big help. He helped me with some of the accomplishments here, this the screens for the accomplishments this year. And he's actually going to lead us off a little bit, kind of talk about some of the really unique and good things that we've done this year.
004And then I'm going to follow it up and finish up with some of the things that have either happened that I want to make sure that we talk about or that are on the horizon. So, Brian's going to start us off a little bit. I've been told these two arrows. All right. Um, all right. So, first thing we're going to do is just highlight some uh team highlights from throughout the year. And basically, we um decided to kind of just talk about the teams that made it to a sectional championship, which you guys know it's very difficult to um obviously win a sectional championship, but to to make it to the finals is also a difficult task. Um so, in the fall, we had the football team uh sectional finals appearance. Uh they ended up
005losing to Easter 28 to4 and that was at Sunni Brockport in the winter. Uh we had our boys ice hockey team. Um and that was when I say boys ice hockey team actually it's not the boys ice hockey team it's the hockey team because we have Nicole on on that team as well. Sectional finals appearance um lost to Victor 6 to3. Um that was at RIT. Um, in the winter we had girls indoor track and field sectional championship and they were sectional champs. 19th girls indoor track and field sectional championship and the championship team included nine individual sectional champions and we'll talk about the individual sectional champs um when we get to the individual accolades. Our boys indoor track and field team uh they were also sectional champions. It's the 12th boys indoor track and
006field sectional championship. And this championship team included seven individual sectional champions. Um also on the winner we have boys basketball. They were the Monroe County Division One Conference Champs. Uh they lost to East in the semifinals um at Fingerlakes Community College. As you can see, actually they photoshopped Coach Brasy in that picture um because um obviously he had some health issues going on this year. And then in the spring, we had our flag football team uh lost a heartbreaker in the sectional finals, seven to zero to CG Finny, and that was at MCC, Mur Community College. And uh most recently here, girls outdoor track and field. They were sectional champions. And this is the fourth girls outdoor track and field sectional championship in a row, which is amazing. Um eighth girls outdoor track and field
007sectional championship. And the championship team included nine individual sectional champions. And then also to follow that up, our boys outdoor track and field. Uh they were also sectional champs. And this is the uh ninth boys outdoor track and field sectional championship. And this championship team included 12 indiv individual sectional champions. And then to go on to the individual highlights, I won't read off all the names, but you can take a look at them up there. Uh we had our nine individual sectional champions, and this was in the indoor track winter season. So you can take a look. Uh pretty impressive crew up there. And then also in the winter time, our individual sectional champions for the boys. We had seven individuals that uh earned individual sectional championships. And then going to outdoor track and field,
008we had nine of our female student athletes that were individual sectional champions. You can take a look up there. A lot of the same names. Um we have a few new names in there as well. Then boys outdoor track and field, we had 12 individual sectional champions. Then in our winter time, our New York State representatives um again from we have boys ice hockey, our ice hockey, we have girls indoor track and field and then boys indoor uh track and field. Taking a look there, those were our New York State representatives in the winter time. And as we know, we had a New York state champion, Sheldon Cyberling, and this was his second consecutive uh shot foot state championship, and he threw a 61t 5 in. Then in the spring, most recently this past weekend,
009uh these were our New York State state representatives um for girls outdoor track and field and boys outdoor track and field. And coming home with state uh state titles, our 4x1 relay uh they won the state championship in class B. And then Cooper Kesznney also won the pole vault and that was also a new school record that he set in the pole vault as a state champion. All right. Thank you. uh some important things that I think that took place this year that are good for all of us to know and that I hope to do more of in the future or hope that Betavia can do more of in the future. In January on January 15th, we held we hosted the section 5 dual championships for wrestling in the class of B. We we
010were also involved in that as well. Um Mr. Mucci helped on that day. It was a very good day, I think. uh we uh section was very grateful for us picking that up. Uh it showcases our school, showcases our athletes and it showcases uh that we can host a meet or an event like that and the section was very grateful for that. Then just a couple weeks ago we also hosted the class B outdoor track and field state qualifier. We had 19 schools at that event. It went very smoothly. The section again was very grateful for that. We had plenty of success on that day as well as we had many more state qualifiers come up in that meet and that was prior to obviously states this last weekend. Um we didn't have great weather
011for that again but that was kind of the theme for the spring. So um then this year we changed things up a little bit and we combined a couple of events and I've been told that it went over pretty well. We at the we had a athletic award and signing night and what that entailed was we did our normal athletic awards and scholarships. We gave away and recognized 20 different uh scholarships and awards and that evening. But we also had 10 different individuals that were interested in doing a ceremonial college signing. Wherever they come up, we take a picture of them signing a document that basically gives their intent to go and play a sport at the school they're that they're going to in the fall. And we announce what sport, we announce what school,
012and it's just a nice piece. We invite the media and uh Emily, Miss Benedict, she did a wonderful job of showcasing that and getting it out for all of the community. Pardon me. This year for scholar athletes, we did pretty good. Excuse me. We had 268 student athletes that qualified as individual scholar athletes. And as it says up there, that means that those individuals had a 90 um grade point average during that time. And then they are recognized by the section. In the fall, we were fortunate enough to have a individual recognized by this section as the winner for girls volleyball. That was Miss Anderson uh Ava. Um she received that for and represent Betavia for that that award at only one individual per program wins that scholar athlete award. So that's really a good
013accomplishment. And then as far as teams, in order to be a team that's recognized, it has to have 75% of the athletes on the varsity roster that meet the 90 um 90 grade point average. We had seven in the spring this year. We had nine in the winter and we had six in the fall. 22 of the 28 teams and because of that it gave us the 80% we needed to have 75 of percent of our teams in order to qualify as a school of excellence and that's what we qualified for again this year. I was told that we did that last year as well. So that's good. We're keeping our percentages up and doing well. And then something some of the things that are coming on the horizon that I just wanted to bring
014forward. So New York State is again changing their requirements for coaches. Uh if you this year we really worked on making sure that our coaches were making all of the credentials that they needed that New York State requires. New York State is again changing the CPR first aid requirement. Now uh that boat comes up here in the summertime. Uh what that will entail is the state recognizes that some of the CPR first aid courses and there's lots that can be taken. Um they've gone to be a little bit cumbersome for the coaches and they're not always readily available. So they're changing that. Uh there's a vote for it in the summertime to each district can make a determination on the level of CPR first aid that it requires the coaches to have. There's still going
015to be CPR first aid for coaches, but you can also supplement that with CPR first aid, professional rescuers, CPR first aid, uh, AED, um, just regular that anybody can take. All of those are changes that the state's coming down from the state, as well as the state's making it easier for coaches to get their coaching certification classes. Uh, they offer several online options now in addition to inperson. So, it's they're good changes. They're good changes that New York State's probably a little bit behind on making. So, I'm kind of happy and looking forward to that. Uh the academic eligibility, we're looking forward to year two. Some of the reflections on that is how we collected the data and communicate to the coaches. I felt like over the course of the year, there's definitely improvements there
016and we were able to utilize some of our internal software that helped us collect that data a little bit better. And we're looking forward to the fall being able to have a their transition, being able to make that a little bit more uh easily communicated to the coaches, um utilizing some of our internal staff, counseling department, so on so forth. It helps us be able to know what the kids grades are and communicate that on to the coaches a little bit easier. So, it did go well though in its first year. And then the first slide, you saw it, 500. This year, we actually had coach Buddy Brassi. He hit his 500th win. He got it back on January 24th, I remember the date. Um he on that day he got his 500th win. We
017faced Eastridge. Score was 83- 79. It was a close one. Uh some of the things from coach Bras's career that I thought were worth mentioning tonight. Uh he's been at it for 35 years. Out of those 35 years, he's had 26 seasons where he's been over 500. He had 22 years in a row where he was better than 500. 97 to 18. He's had six sectional championship teams, four regional championship teams, which means he's represented the state four different times. And his best year was in 2008 2009. He went 22 and four. And that was a year that he also went to states. So he had some really good runs and it was really nice to be able to recognize him for that. I can tell you uh in my stops prior to here, I
018did not have any coaches that reached 500 kids, which is pretty incredible when you think about it. So, some things to celebrate and some good things on the horizon. Um, do you guys have any uh questions? Anything that came up that of interest? Joe, how's the uh the multiport going for the students? You mean dual sporting? Dual sport. So, kids that are playing two sports in a season, it's been good. I know that uh I this was prior to me, there was something put in place where only two of the seasons students can dual sport. And we've had probably anywhere, depending on the season, anywhere between 10 and as low as three students that are um dual sporting in that in that sport season, either the fall, the spring, or the winter. Uh it's something
019that I see more in the spring really because uh probably the one that utilizes it the most is like flag football. There's several girls on that roster that either played softball or ran track and then they're also playing flag football. But um it's good. I I think that it's probably a smart thing to limit it to two seasons because when you think about all that these kids have to do as far as academic eligibility and just keeping themselves healthy, you know, I should keep in mind that this is also an important time for body maturation, just being healthy. You know, you don't want to tax too much. So, I think that that's going well. I don't know if there's a particular part that you're interested just asking how it's going. I know. Yeah, I think
020that that's doing well. The coaches seem to work pretty well with each other, too. I really haven't had any coaches that have come forward and say, "No, I'm not in favor. We can't make that work." So, yeah. Good. It's been pretty good. Anything else? How the numbers looking for sports? Numbers for sports. So, um I think I heard a conversation a little bit earlier. We have what I've noticed the trend is that we have between the grades of it's really 9th through 11th but 10th grade this this cohort not next year's 10th grade this year's 10th grade I see like a lull in kids that are playing sports and it's not specific to one season it's not specific to one sport uh it's really just that group of kids for whatever reason it's either lack
021of interest or just not uh maybe didn't get involved in it. I hate using the C word co but I think that we're still seeing some of that as that's a very influential time when you look at that that's when they were young enough to be able to starting earlier on in sports so I think that really put a goodsized dent in it as far as if I look outside of the Battavia community I see at that same age group similar numbers so I think the impact it it's not unique to just Bavia it's you know it's global Everybody's seeing it. Yeah, everybody's seeing it. Um, I have been told and I do try to keep tabs on the youth sports whether it's baseball, softball, lacrosse, uh, even, you know, basketball, football, and I've been
022told that in the next couple years, the next couple cohorts like your fifth, sixth, seventh right now, there's numbers bumping up. So, that's that's good. That's encouraging. It's really getting those kids involved in the programs and having them be interested to follow through, you know, so making it fun. Um, but also making it a value, right? Uh, we we work on that in our PE classes. It's been a large part of our discussion. How do we do this? How do we keep our kids interested in staying fit and valuing a healthy lifestyle for the rest of life? And a big part of that is participation in sports. really it I've always been an advocate of participation in sports teaches kids a lot more about about being a leader and being a good teammate than you
023know that specific sport made those those lessons in that sport. So I hope that answers your question. It did. Thank you. Okay. Anything else? Anybody? Thanks Joe. Gentlemen, thank you very much. Appreciate it. Thank you. I don't know how to turn it off. Actually, I do, but not not on purpose. Thanks, guys. Thank you. Thank you. All right. Next up, Superintendent Jason Smith's report. Thank you. I just want to thank the Bavadia families and parents and community for the budget support this past May was overwhelmingly overwhelmingly approved. So, we look forward to another year. Welcome to Dan Schmidt who was elected to the board effective July 1st and welcome back to CHZ role for I think his second term. CHZ second term third third excuse me third welcome back for your third year. I want
024to also recognize you know John Buchi again for his leadership and dedication I recognized him before with the class. So John thank you and good luck in your future plans serving whatever else comes your way but uh thank you for the last six years. Thank you. Again, in recognition to our retirees, most of them were here tonight. We had a few teachers who were not here. I want to recognize them as well. Congrats to our track and field medalists. This past weekend, you heard Joel and Brennan talk about them. Um, of course, we have no school Thursday, just as a helpful reminder, due to Junth and half days begin next week for our students in grades prechool through 8. So, information coming out on that. Graduation is next Friday. can fellow classmates congressional class of
0252025. I look forward to being there was next Friday at the stadium as our as the board members are. And the last item I just want to make sure the board is aware we can talk about later in the in the that part of the meeting. But the internet enabled device ban is up for a first read tonight. Commonly known as a cell phone ban, but encompasses all internet enabled devices. Want to update the boys to where we are with that. I did mention that last week or so in a visual update for our parents. We've surveyed the staff of the middle school and high school for their feedback on it. Both Dr. Cry and Miss West have spoken to student reps which were asked to do. I met this afternoon with members of our
026of our employee associations and got their feedback. A parent feedback form is being written as we speak. I'll have that out after graduation to get some parent feedback on it. And by law, the board must adopt something by August 1st. My plan right now is to have this policy to you again in a finalized version in July at the mid July board meeting, adopt it and then go from there. But again, that's later on in the agenda. If you have more questions, when we talk about that, I do want to make sure that our families who are listening out there know that it is in the works and a survey is coming out toward the end of June for our families regarding any questions they may have on the house. Any questions? We can talk
027about them more later when the time comes. And and I also want to recognize Cam before he gives his final report on his leadership. He'll have big shoes to fill, but Cam, good luck at RIT, right next year. So, best wishes to you, Cam, and thank you for being a valuable member of our team. That's all I have. All right, next up, Cam. Were mostly covered, but sorry about that. We tried. No, you're I don't like reporting on them. um set up, but the only thing wasn't mentioned was we had the uh the Vander Stadium hosted the Special Olympics. Mr. Smith was there, health academy, volunteered there. Other than like all of the tents immediately getting blown over, it went actually really well. Um I think we're going to continue doing it maybe. I don't
028know. I'm not going to be here. Anyway, okay. Um I'd like to begin by thanking each and every one of you for welcome welcoming me to this body and I hope that I've done a satisfactory job this year. Um, it's been an honor to see how the board of education operates and attempt to represent the student body. Looking back on my first report, I recall being excited about the medical field and the beginning of health academy, which we graduated from last week. Um, and I intended to attend Benson University for integrative neuroscience. Although I did end up getting accepted into that program, I decided to attend RIT for medical illustration, which is like a really good combination of my interest in the medical world and fine arts. Um, I attended graduate with a bachelor's of
029fine arts and medical illustration, eventually freelance, and then become an art educator. Um, I'm grateful for the insight that Boseies and the teachers that I'm close with have provided me with. Um, okay, there it is. Although high school has come to the close for class of 2025, the senior year is still far from over. Tomorrow I will present I will be present for the teacher appreciation night as well as many of my peers and the senior trip to DC leaves on Thursday. These are staple high school experiences that myself and many others are looking forward to. Um, to be honest, I don't really have much more to say. This year has been one of momentous growth for me and I couldn't have done it without all the staff and students in this building. So, just
030thank you guys and good luck next year. Thanks, Cam. Thanks, Cam. You too, Cam. It's been a pleasure, David. All right. Um, next up, grouping of consent items. Going to need a motion to approve the grouping of the consent items. Could I have a motion, please? So, moved. Miss Lley, could I have a second? Second. Can I have a second? Mr. Roll, can I have an honor or a second? Can you like hit the G? All right. All in favor? I. Any opposed? All right. Next up, we're at Nontracts ESB media communications and marketing proposal for July 1, 2025 through June 30th, 2026. Any questions? None. Okay, I'm going to need a motion. So, Mr. Rio, could I have a second? Miss Bowman, all in favor? I I'm outstanding. Also, next up, new business. One,
031cooperative agreement between the Betavia City School District and Glo YMCA Incorporated for the implementation of STEM initiatives. Any questions? All right. Could I have a motion, please? first one. Miss Lende, can I have a second? Second. Miss Goldman. All in favor? I. All right. Set. Number two, policy updates from Erie One Boseis. Policy audit first read. So, these were one I already talked about, but I'll come back on a second. The first one is the U temperature law, which again we're the district is required to have in place that goes into effect September 1st. The details are contained in the policy itself. Essentially, u we have to provide mitigated efforts such as keeping the windows open, the effort to finance for our staff. Antonio can test his fan in his classrooms. The temperature rises above
03282 degrees. We did do a test run last year on a really hot day in June. And we had the magic number really is 88 degrees. If that gets above 88 degrees, we have to u relocate those students. And last year in all our five buildings, we had one classroom second floor Mars reached 92 degrees. So I'm not not saying what happened, but um that's the uh that's the number that we have to have and we've engaged with building ground staff. Uh I'm working with the BPD to have the windows be open as that's a mitigated effort. We had purchased little sticks for safety measured fans. This is back on September 1st. Is that it? Any questions on that? The second one is internet enabled device ban which is commonly called the cell phone ban.
033Um I've already hit those main points on that. Any questions, comments or suggestions on that? We've had some dialogue on it. But people understand that this isn't an hour thing. It's a state thing. Do they understand that? I think most people do. Okay. But I can't promise you that it's 100%. That's what I'm talking about now. But we're going we're going to ramp up the whole effort once it's passed. We want to do some video updates. sure our families like what the possible cell phone offers look like. We'll obviously have some grace periods to get kids used to it. Um we have to update the code of conduct. Um but in the um survey that I have coming out, I explained I have a link to the bill or to the law rather. I met
034with the union associations other presidents this afternoon. They're on board with it and we've got some good feedback from our faculty as well. And students, honestly, the students I talked to, um, and they have been talked to and the senior doesn't have to worry about this anymore. Um, they recognize that just having the phones in their in their own lockers is going to be too tempting. You know, we have mine right here is obviously ridiculous. So, we're looking at some storage containers. Um, but again, we'll teach the kids the procedures, teach the students those expectations, and monitor, adjust, and hold them accountable to it. So I think um I feel better about I feel much more confident than I did about like a month ago. I've talked to more teachers and and principal and parents.
035So I feel like the parents are going to also need education like how they can get a hold of their child during the day whe it's through email. I don't know if parent square will be. Well so in the policy if we have to have that and when we do that if nothing else parents can always call the school like they did when we were in school. We're looking at some other methods as well. We haven't um finalized those yet, but and there's also exceptions made as well for students that have learning disabilities that need for translation service and medical needs, you know, like um diabetes tracking. Those exceptions are spelled out in the policy. Um but yeah, so in the policy, it does say how we have to say how parents can contact kids.
036I just worry about this um front office staff being bombarded, you know, needs. I think a lot of those And I can speak firsthand a lot of the requests are not priority. Right. Right. I agree. Yeah. And I can speak, you know, personal personal personal perspective, too. They're not priority. Yeah. I think it's just going to take communication in the morning. Yeah. So, we're going to watch we're going to wrap up the whole the whole plan. So, thank you for that. Maybe do a story on this, Brian, for this. What do you think? Any other question? No. Any other questions? Thank you for those questions. I'll keep you I'll keep you updated on that. All right. Could I have a motion, please? Mr. Reggo, could I have a second? Second. Who said that? Correct. Miss
037Anderson. All in favor? I. I. All right. Number three, resolution amending and confirming seeker negative declaration for capital improvements project titled BCSD reimagine shaping our schools for the future. Any questions? No. Can I have a motion, please? So moved. Miss Benedict, can I have a second? Second, Miss Bowman. All in favor? I. All right. Number four, resolution to create position assistant director of special education. Any questions? No. All right. Could I have a motion, please? Miss Lindy, could I have a second? Second, Mr. Ro. All in favor? I. Any opposed? Okay. Number five, approve job description for assistant director of special ed. Any questions? Lisa, I would assume that um the the job description would include responsibilities um was discussed with um it was extensively. Yes. So this is a full and complete list. Okay.
038Any other questions? No. All right. Could I have a motion, please? So move. Miss Benedict, could I have a second? Second. Mr. Ro. All in favor? I. Any opposed? Okay. Next up, discussions and other reports. Um, board go updates. Anybody got any updates on that? But I will say I've had some conversations um to look at a possible retreat for next uh for next summer. I'm looking at talking with spoken with Mr. about that and um looking at perhaps NISPA come in different different you know facilitator that's your that's your association and they do some great retreats. So I think the goal the goal piece you know with the new board member coming on changes the board leadership my recommendation would be to I've been happy with our other folks but it's good to change
039things up I think and what I like about NSBA is they are you so they are it's a New York City school board it's a New York schoolboard association and they're your one advocacy group and I think they do a nice job with retreat. So that's just my comment. All right. So, uh, any board members have any comments or news to share? The middle school is going well. Um, I've done it twice and spent the whole morning attending different classes. I've been impressed by the teachers. I've been impressed by the students and I've been impressed by Dr. Cry. So, that is a win-win. Um, all I have to say is I I did my last tours of our schools a couple two weeks ago today. um started off at Robert Morris. Um I think Miss
040Cordelius is doing a fantastic job there. Um she's on top of everything. Uh and that includes the capital project improvements that are going to be happening at Robert Moore. She is on top of everything down there. Um I then went over to Jackson. Um got a nice tour from uh Miss Naro. Uh, and believe it or not, the uh, young lady that gave me my hug last year when I walked into her room remembered me and came and gave me another hug this year. So, that kind of made my whole day right there. Um, then went on to JK and had a nice tour with Mr. Kesler. Um, things look to be going good over at JK. U, went to BMS and, uh, that was probably my longest tour. Um, Dr. crying wanted to make
041sure that uh I got into classes, saw some teachers um educating the students. Um and from what I saw, fantastic. Um I saw students very engaged. Um the teachers were doing a fantastic job. Um we went down to the tech room and it was great to see I called it wood shop obviously back in my day. Um but to see um young ladies in there building chairs and doing stuff like that, I thought that was fantastic to see. Um then obviously my my final stop was here at the high school and uh Miss West did a did a great job giving me a tour, walking me around and uh things are going very well here at the high school from what I can see. So um I think all our schools are in very good
042hands. Um, so that's really all I got to say except thank you guys for uh six great years. I just want to mention one thing. I appreciate all of the information for all the events in all of the schools and putting them getting them on my calendar because, you know, for many years I haphazardly knew about things because I had friends or relatives that were involved. But I really appreciate even if I can't come, it's nice to know that it's nice to know that you know that happen. Yes. Yes. So, yeah, we'll keep doing that. That was a a a suggestion that came from one of you may have that new last summer. So, we'll keep doing that. Speaking of that, our I want to thank Andy for doing double duty here as an assistant
043district clerk did appoint tonight Carl P who started July 1. We're excited to have Carl and John for helping out with that. But, we're going to recommend Andy Lauren meeting to go and and burn the midnight oil. So, for that and Carl comes July 1st for our first clearance. I wanted to give a shout out to Maggie Warren who put together the talent show at the middle school which I hadn't seen before. Um, and they conned my son into doing it, but he actually No, he he really he enjoyed it and they they did a really good job. They had all sorts of fun. And then actually Saturday evening, we had kids from both John Kennedy and the middle school as well as by Virginia and St. Joe's who played in the youth um all-star
044game which was a blast um with some good little athletes coming up. And then John Chzn and I got to have some fun at Vendetta Stadium with the Robert Morris kids which was a riot in their bubble fest. Yes. Wonderful riot. Things are funny. They're mad.

I turn to the I turn to Miss Marciano and Jackie from school blind because we're next year. So, we hope to It was nice for everybody. It was great. Thanks for mentioning that, John.

And she goes, "The amount of volunteers and support," she goes, "You don't know unless you have a special needs child what that meant." Um, so don't don't let that event stop. It was fun to see the pictures of like the the I know some of our senior girls that were all like lined up right honestly when the school for the blind had approached me last August I I just assumed they had something and they didn't.
