Please be advised that public notice of this meeting as required by sections 19.84 and 65.90 of the Wisconsin statutes has been properly given. Such notice consisted of a notice and agenda to the official newspaper, the Rice Lake chronerype to the
002Oaklair leader and radio stations WGMC and WAQE indicating the date, time, and place of the meeting. Such notice was given more than 24 hours prior to the meeting. >> Thank you. It does appear that a proper notice was given for this meeting. We'll now stand for the pledge. I pledge algiance 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. >> All right. And it's exciting to be back with our students in school. So now we get to hear about all the exciting things that uh they're doing in our building. So, um, we will start out with our, uh, Rice Lake High School parents, grandparents, anybody wants pictures, there's a nice little spot over here by Mr.
003Drossst. You're welcome to go up there for pictures, video, whatever works. And then uh, our our students will come up to the podium and uh, go from there. >> You go over there. >> Mr. Bicey, you're good here. You can come right over here. First, >> good evening everybody. Um Mark Bice, the assistant principal at the high school. Uh it's my absolute pleasure to introduce to you and and kind of go over the the reasons why um myself, Mr. Kowolski, and Mr. Kowolski nominated uh John to be recognized in front of you tonight. John is a senior like I mentioned. Uh he's the son of uh Paul and Danette Barfka. And I don't really know where to start with this guy other than I had to get him here in September because he has been
004going through his programming has been checking off his goals and he's not going to be with us much longer and that in just a couple weeks he's actually going to be enrolled full-time at Northwoods Technical College to get his CDL. So, uh to do that he's had to work his tail off. uh and he's done that including uh finishing up his economics course uh at the beginning here of his senior year so that he didn't have to worry about coming back to the high school to uh complete that CDL program. Uh he he's a he's a man of few words. Uh he doesn't come to my office uh so he stays out of trouble through his four years. But uh I think he's probably done more kind of quote unquote cool things than I've already
005done. In fact, um I know he again it's it's hard to get some information out of him, but he spent uh he spent the whole summer working up in the Yukon uh gold mining with his father and running equipment and things like that. So, a very independent young man. I know that since uh I believe he turned 16 years old and got his driver's license and kind of grabbed that independence, he's been doing some of his own business, doing some hauling and things like that. And um he plans to put that CDL to good use doing that. I also remarked here that uh he's excelled in in the classroom in general uh having a he's going to graduate with a very high GPA uh but he's also excelled like in our CTE pathways of um
006taking the welding courses and things like that. So, um, John's going to be an entrepreneur, I'm sure. And, uh, he's going to be able to kind of live, um, doing what he loves to do. And he's just a prime example when you set goals, two things, what you can do with those goals and, uh, what you can do through the high school process of the different options that we have available to kids. And, um, we're looking forward to seeing all the things you're going to do. We may have to hire you someday. So, >> you're starring in Gold Rush, right? [Applause] Still picture time. Picture time. >> He is >> few words and less pictures. [Applause] All right. Rice Lake Middle School. >> Sophie uh was not super excited about this either uh being in
007front of a crowd. So, uh I don't know if mom and dad had to twist her arm a little bit, but we're um very excited at the race. So this is Sophie Rue. Uh her parents are Steven Jill Rue and uh at the Rice Lake Middle School for this first one we have our avang guard staff um nominate a student. And so um right now Sophie has Spanish and health and so this is what her teacher said about her. So uh this is from Mrs. Broom in Spanish. Sophie is a conscientious student, always prepared for class, always listening and participating in the learning target for the day. She can be counted on to answer questions. Sophie is polite and a positive role model in our class. Um, so some great words from her. Mr. Lauderbach,
008our health teacher, uh, said this about Sophie. Sophie has been a hardworking student so far this year. Always gets her work done on time with high quality. She's great to have in class. So, uh, we wanted to take the opportunity to recognize, uh, everything that she brings to our school. She's an eighth grader and so, uh, we depend on our eighth graders to be great leaders and she's definitely that as well. So, uh, our student of the month is Sophie R. [Applause] >> Our school board ambassador. Yeah. [Applause] Now we'll move on to Hogan Elementary. >> Oh, there we go. I love this. >> Um, my name is Aaron Hunter. I'm the library media specialist for the elementary schools. Um, and On behalf of the specialist team at Hogan Elementary, um it is our pleasure
009to nominate Tayen Peterson as the September student of the month. Tayen exemplifies the warrior way 100% of the time in the hallway, lunchroom, playground, or classroom. Tayen is always safe, respectful, and responsible. He comes to the library, music, and art rooms eager to learn and follows directions while being a wonderful role model for other students. Tayen comes to the gym with a smile on his face and is always ready to follow the group plan on the first try and is a great leader. Most of all, Tayen is always respectful to staff and his peers. Tayen is a kind friend to everyone, no matter what grade, and is always willing to lend a hand. Tayen, thank you for helping make Hogan Elementary a wonderful place. [Applause] Fabulous prize. [Applause] >> That's right. >> Ter Elementary. Hi
010there. My name is Carla Grer and I'm the art teacher at Tainter and Hogan Elementary. This is Abigail Barkley. She's the daughter of Christy and Eric. She's in fourth grade. And on behalf of the specialist teachers at Tainter, we are nominating Abby as the September student of the month. This was easy to do. Um, in music class, Abby is hardworking, focused student who does very well with her musical skills. She is very helpful and kind to Miss Codington as the teacher and her classmates. Abby is the kind of student that Miss Codington knows will be listening and engaged every time she's standing in front of the room and looks out to her. She is a quiet leader who is also willing to share ideas and opinions. Miss Conington is sure Aby's leadership will continue to
011grow during her last year in the tainter music classroom. In art class, Abby is a pleasure to teach. Abby brings her sparkling personality with her each week to our classroom. even wearing her special specially created art dress much of the time since second grade >> first grade which is such a joy. Abby thinks like an artist, planning, asking questions, looking at examples, and really thinking things through creatively before beginning each project. Abby is a leader in our classroom and I can always depend on her to help me or a classmate without complaint. Abby shows up each week with positivity, excited, and ready to make art. Abigail sense sets a good example in the library and can always be counted on to follow the warrior way. She is kind to everyone, works well with her classmates,
012and is eager to help others when they need it. Abigail always has a smile on her face and is ready to learn or talk about her hobbies or what she's been reading, even once recommending a book to Miss Hunter. Thank you to Abby for being a good leader and a role model. In FedEd, Abby has a kind heart. She is always a great role model and is willing to help if someone is in need. Abby finds ways to solve solve problems and makes everyone else's experience positive. And that's from Mr. in the gym. So, thank you, Abby. [Applause] Hilltop Elementary. >> Hi, my name is Audrey Norton. I am the art teacher at Hilltop and this is Jasmine Chun. She is a fourth grader there. Um, in music, Mrs. Mockfouse wrote that Jasmine is a
013great student in music class. She always tries her best at every activity in music, whether it be singing, dancing, or playing instruments. Jasmine sets a good example and is a leader in the warrior way. Jasmine is always willing to try new things. She has enjoyed having her music class throughout her elementary years. Coach Ore wrote, "In Fed, Jasmine comes to class each day with a positive attitude, great effort, and a smile that always encourages others. She gives her best in every activity, shows excellent sportsmanship, and is always willing to help her classmates. Jasmine is a wonderful example of how to be active, respectful, and a team player. We are so proud to celebrate her. I am her art teacher, and I'm a little bit biased because Jasmine is also an extremely talented artist. Like, you
014should see the stuff that she makes. Very, very cool. Um, but we are lucky at Race Lake to have such a kind, calm, and creative student in Jasmine. She is hardworking and focused, but any conversation you have with her will leave you smiling. Her influence is clear in her classmates, her teachers, and all of her younger siblings who so clearly admire her because we all have our younger siblings, too, and they talk about her and her art a lot because I swear you guys, it's so good. Um, and I love that she doesn't take any flack from anyone either. I like that. In art, we need a little bit of that. In library, Jasmine serves as a good role model to her peers. She is eager to learn and contribute to class discussions. She helps
015her classmates and follows libraries expectations, setting a good example for others. I rarely or Mrs. Hunter rarely sees her without a smile and she shows excitement about the books she is reading. Thank you for being a great library student and role model, Jasmine. [Applause] [Music] [Applause] the tag along or the commercial. So, I'm Andrea Jenny, ESL teacher and I'm translated for mom. So, Um, soon Maximo Jasmine Warrior. That's right. Jasmine, the Rice Lake. Influences. [Applause] All right. Congratulations to all of our students that were recognized this evening. And I want you to know that your names will be put into a drawing at the end of the school year. we will have a drawing uh for a couple recipients to receive some Chromebooks. So, uh good luck on the drawing at the end of the
016school year. And we will take a brief moment for anybody that wants to uh duck out. You're welcome to stay, but we will take a brief moment for you to to uh leave if you'd like. >> Highly recommend. >> Too bad. This isn't a bad >> No, this will this will miss you. >> Very young. It's a short >> hopefully. Yeah. >> Congratulations, John. >> There really isn't much here. >> No. >> You know what? We named our daughter. >> So, one year going up full time. >> Oh, yeah. [Laughter] >> That's his dream to mine gold full. >> Hey, Jeremy. Good to see you, Dick. >> All right. So, we had no one sign up for appearances. We will move on to the approval of our regular session meeting minutes from uh Monday, September
0178th. Do I have a motion to approve? moved. >> Motion has been made. Is there a second? >> Second. >> Motion has been made and seconded. Is there any further discussions? >> Seeing none, all in favor signify by saying I. >> Opposed. The minutes have been approved from September 8th. Next, we have our consent agenda. We have three employment resignations and seven employment recommendations. And I would entertain a motion to approve the consent agenda. So move. >> Motion has been made. Is there a second? >> Second. >> Motion has been made and seconded. Is there any further discussion? >> Seeing none, all in favor signify by saying I. >> I. >> Opposed. And the consent agenda has been approved. >> All right. Next, we get into our report section and we have a Wisconsin schoolboard
018week October 6th through the 10th. Whereas the Rice Lake Area School District recognizes the importance of public education in our community and whereas the Rice Lake Area School District appreciates the vital role played by the local school board which establishes policies to ensure an efficient effective school system. And whereas schoolboard members serve as a voice that enables our community to pres uh preserve local management and control of our public schools. And whereas schoolboard members are charged with representing our local education interest to state and federal governments and ensuring compliance with state and federal law. And whereas schoolboard members selflessly devote their knowledge, time, talents as advocates for our school children and community's future. And whereas local schoolboard members are strong advocates for public education and responsible for communicating the needs to the school district to
019the public and the public's expectations to the district. Now therefore, be it resolved that the Rice Lake Area School District recognizes and salutes the members of the Rice Lake Area School Board by proclaiming October 6th through the 10th, 2025 is Wisconsin School Board Week. And I would entertain a motion to approve that proclamation. >> So moved. >> Motion has been made. Is there a second? >> Second. >> Motion has been made and seconded. Any further discussion? Seeing none, all in favor signify by saying I. >> Opposed. And that has been proclaimed. Next, we have the minutes from our curriculum meeting on Tuesday, September 16th. We met at 5:30. Um, we had all board members present uh along with with some staff and one community member and we started off hearing about the summer trip, the
020Spanish trip for 2027. They're making plans for that 8-day trip to go to Costa Rica and uh sounds like a really really fun trip. had a few people volunteer to to go along with if they needed any extra help. Um, but they >> How's your Spanish? >> That that was the question. Wasn't me, it was Bert. And uh Bert doesn't speak much Spanish, so >> he got disqualified. That's true. >> But uh it sounds like a really good trip. They've got uh got a good plan in place. It's a company they work with is out of Wisconsin out of Green Bay. They've been in business for 40ome years and and uh so they've got a a good plan in place for those for those students that are going to go to Costa Rica. And then
021uh we we talked about the literacy intervention, the starry program that was uh being introduced this year to the district. We had some uh good discussion with with our staff and uh asked for a few changes. They'll be coming back to the committee in November with those changes and uh they're moving forward. So we uh then adjourned and we our next meeting date is October 20th at 5:00 here in the administration building. Any questions? Is the star is that something we're looking at adopting or already adopted? >> It uh it's just an intervention. So it uh it's not a full curriculum. It's just an intervention curriculum. Okay. >> And so it's in place at a certain level >> um as we speak. >> Okay. >> All right. Then we have our second reading from the
022policy and legislative advocacy committee meeting. the policies and rules that were brought forward at our last meeting for the first reading are now back for the second reading. Um, I'm not aware of any changes that were requested or talked about. So, with that, I would entertain a motion to approve those policies, rules, and exhibits. Um, >> first move to >> second the policies. >> Motion has been made and seconded. Any further discussion? Seeing none, all in favor signify by saying I. >> I. >> Opposed and the policies have been exhibits and rules have been approved and accepted. Um, so then we'll move into our information section where we have our WASB policy correspondent update. Phil, what do you got for us? >> Um, first of all, I'd like to thank Don for stepping in last
023week. I was uh >> listening very carefully to that. >> I know. I didn't do you proud. I'm sorry. >> Okay. I tried. >> Thank you for doing that. >> Um there's not too much going on in the legislature yet. Uh from the blog, uh the Office of School Safety, uh wants people to know there are a few more resources up to use for Speak Up and Speak Out. Um, I've talked a little bit about Assembly Bill 196, which has a companion Senate bill, which is the bill uh that would allow uh renew annuitants, for instance, teachers that retired after 75 days go back to work and uh the school district would continue to pay uh the appropriate share into the retirement fund. Well, that was scheduled for a vote in the committee. it has
024to be voted out a committee to the floor and it was pulled from a committee vote and they didn't say why on the blog I called I I texted Dave and asked him and he said he was going to find out for me so hopefully I'll present that soon u because uh law enforcement and firefighters have a companion bill sort of and jailers and protective applica uh occupations they apparently are going to be allowed to do that so I don't know what the hangup is here Um the parties had a press conference and stated their priorities for next year. The uh Democrats generally uh uh stated their priorities are increased school aids and free meals for kids. Uh Republicans uh were uh mentioning Act 20 type legislation for math. So, um like um uh I'm
025blanking the terminology, but to make sure that kids uh know their basics in math, just like the the act 20 for reading. Uh federal side of things, end of the fiscal year is coming up September 30th. And uh as usual, no budget has been passed. And as usual, they need to pass some form of budget to keep the government open or um not a budget but a continuing resolution. And as usual, there's be great drama with that. The House has passed a clean extension, but uh Senate is a question because they need Democrat votes to reach threshold of 60 this time. As far as the spending goes so far, um what might go into that continuing resolution? The House uh in their extension that they passed is proposing a cut in title one. So far
026in the Senate, they're proposing to spend more. Title two was eliminated by the House. The Senate's keeping that. Title 4A, the House kept the same funding level. And in individual individuals with disabilities education act idea both houses gave a slight increase. Now I just want to review that because you hear this title one title two etc all the time and I did just a little bit of research on that to educate myself. Um the basic education act we're talking about is the elementary and secondary education act of 1965 which is part of LBJ's great society uh war on poverty program which is part of great society essa and that's been modified and reauthorized by congress a number of times. It was modified 1968. 1974 No Child Left Behind in 2002 was a modification introducing testing
027regimes designed to promote standards base standardsbased education. And then in 2015, ESSA, the Every Student Succeeds Act, was another modification which retained some of the No Child Left Behind uh points, but shifted responsibilities to the states. And the titles of this education act, I mentioned, I'll just mention a couple. There are at least eight. Um, and there it's confusing because there are titles of the Civil Rights Act, too, but we're normally concerned with the titles of the Education Act. So, you guys know all this. You're probably teaching your kids this every day, huh? What the titles mean? Um, Title One is the largest source of federal funding for K12 schools. And uh it's it's meant to direct local funding for lowach achieving children and schools with high levels of poverty. And that's the one where
028I mentioned the house is proposing a cut. The spend want the senate wants to spend more. Title 2 A is seems to be cited uh which the House wanted to eliminate but the Senate wanted to keep is a federal grant under uh the basic education act designed to improve the quality and effectiveness of school staff by funding professional development programs uh and includes funds for school libraries, textbooks and instruct in instructional materials. So I don't know um what the reasoning behind uh the funding proposals is there. And title three is targeted to help limited English proficient children which I didn't mention which uh wasn't mentioned in the blog. Uh, title 4 where the funding is uh proposed to be kept level concerns educational research and development, parental consent, prohibition on mandatory medications, uh, technology grants,
029violence prevention, mental health resources. So, all right, see if you can remember that because I won't be able to remember it. That's why I've typed in my notes here. Um upcoming meetings, legislative meeting is probably down south around usually around Green Lake someplace on November 8th. Maybe it's in Stevens Point this year. I don't know. You have to look it up yourself, but it's November 8th. Regional meeting is here in Rice Lake at Layman's on October 15th. >> And it is it is in uh Stevens Point. >> Okay. >> This year, >> November 8th. >> Yep. get a little duck hunting in with before the meeting. >> Yeah. >> And then other uh upcoming meetings, we've got the uh WSB 2025 fall regional meeting and premeating workshop held here in Race Lake at Layman Supper
030Club. Uh we've got a number of board members signed up. We're getting close to where we could have just about all of our board members there, which would be kind of a different thing. So that'd be nice. So, if you can make it, uh, let Clean know so she can get you registered. I think it's birthday, so I'm not sure. And then there's some webinars, the Wednesday noon webinars that registration is not required. So, um, if you can attend those and then the convention coming up right around the corner in January. Um, so if you can attend that, please let Clean know. Registration is different this year. we need to know and get you uh signed up for a room uh sooner than later. Otherwise, you who knows what hotel you'll end up at. So,
031um and those the dates for the convention this year is January 20th through the 23rd. And that is our upcoming meeting schedule. Next, again, because we're back in session with school and our students are in the buildings, we've got two great students joining us this evening. And if you want to introduce yourselves and then uh the floor is yours. Yeah, you go up here. Go ahead. [Music] Hi, I'm Porter Corbin. I'm a junior class rep. >> And I'm Sophia Winfield and I'm also a junior class rep. So, most of you probably know, but we have freshman first day, which is pretty much just a day where freshmen come to school when there's no one else there. And we've gotten feedback that it's not maybe as memorable as we'd like it to be. So, we tried
032to implement some things this year that would make it a better experience for the incoming freshmen. Like this activity, the picture on the bottom is um home rooms had to compete against each other and try to flip a tarp over without anyone stepping off of it, which was challenging for a lot of students, but there were definitely students that took the lead and got their classmates on the other side. And then of course Rachel Rachel's challenge which we do every single year. Um which is just pretty much a story about a school shooting and students pledging that they won't ever do that. And um then also outside is the them learning their class cheer that they'll use for the rest of their high school career. And then also on the first real day of school,
033we have senior sunrise, which we have every year. And 67 seniors attended, which is about a little less than half of their class. So it was a good turnout. >> It was cold. >> Yeah. >> Um these are some photos from our pep assembly. Um we did our class cheer. Um yeah, we had a >> Can you demonstrate? >> Yeah. Full full disclosure. >> Um, yeah, we played some games. We played a game where you tried to knock the pizza box out of students and teachers hands and last one standing. >> Did it have pizza in it? >> Sadly, no. >> Um, then we also played a balloon popping game, which >> yeah, relay race kind of. It was fun. Um yeah. >> Okay. >> Um so this is our homecoming week, I guess. First
034we kick it off with an assembly this Friday. Um I don't really know what we do there. Okay. Well, assembly next Friday. Uh weekn night events. uh dress up days, spirit stick, and teacher of the week, which we have more information on the next slide. Um, >> yeah, >> so this Friday, we have our kickoff assembly, which we just hold in the auditorium, and it's where we introduce the spirit stick, and it's each class's opportunity to earn their first points for the homecoming week for their chance to win the to the spirit stick. And we have played Mario Kart the past couple years, which I think we're probably going to do that again. We had some suggestions for other games, but Mario Kart seems to be a fan favorite. So, that's one way that students
035earn points. Then, we also have the teachers do Just Dance. So, we have one teacher from each like home room grade and whoever wins gets their class point. Um the assembly next Friday indicates the end of our homecoming week where we announce our winners and of the spirit stick competition and celebrate all the sports teams. >> And then our first weekn night event is Sunday night in Oie. We have dodgeball. So pretty much you just have eight students from each grade, but there can be more than one team, but eight students per team. four boys, four girls, and they battle it out and see who wins. And then whoever wins the tournament gets points for the spirit stick. And then on Monday, we have girls capture the flag, which pretty much all of your grade.
036There's so many people on the field just playing. And then again, whoever wins gets points for the spirit stick. On Tuesday, we do boys volleyball during resource. Um, that's definitely been fun. The they like to dress up for that and have themes, which they're coming up with some good ones this year. So, and on is >> on Thursday or Friday. >> I think it's on th is Thursday. Yeah. On Thursday night, we have a bonfire after the soccer game, which is something new we're doing this year because before we haven't done it at homecoming week, but we thought if we did it homecoming week, we'd have a better turnout. So, we'll see how that goes. >> Uh, next we have our dress up days. On Monday, we have our class colors. Um, then we have
037anything but a backpack day, which we've done before and it was pretty fun. Uh, then we have a meme day, a decade day, and a warrior day, which is just spirit day. Oh, yeah. They voted on these, so this is what they want. >> So, what's a meme day? >> Um, I don't know. Like, there's so many. I don't I don't know. So you dress up as like a meme that's popular out there. Okay. >> We didn't have those when we were kids. We didn't have memes. >> But we had decades. But >> we did. Yes. Yeah. Like each grade was a different decade from I think the 70s to the 2000s. So >> Okay. >> To the 2000s. >> Yeah. I I thought that was a little early, too, but it's okay. And then
038the spirit stick. I already kind of talked about that. It's grade versus grade. The seniors are on a streak this year, but I personally think that our grade is gonna win this year. So, >> all right. >> Right on that stick. The black the black tape needs to go. It's time time for my class to have our turn. And yeah, dress up days, you also get points for that. So, pretty much teachers, there's like a giant Google form that adds up all the point totals for each class. And so whoever wins like that day, they also get points like who the most participation. >> And something we're starting this year is teacher of the week. Um, two teachers a week. They fill out a form. They put all their information on it and fun facts
039about themselves. Then we fill out a little poster about them. Then we we post it on our social medias and our TVs around the school. on. All right. >> This so we're bringing back the homecoming kids fair which we did I think a few years ago. We used to do it but not since I've been in high school. And it's going to be right before the football game. We're getting a bunch of like sports and clubs to kind of make like a booth per se um with like a game for elementary and middle school students to play just to kind of like get our community more togetherness because we've been looking for a way to involve the younger grades. But um this seemed like the easiest way because it's right before the football game so
040it's super accessible for people to come and there's lots of room and it's outside, music, games, prizes, you know, fun. And then we also have a Raiken run which we've been doing. It's October 25th through 26th. If anyone wants to sign up, you can scan that QR code. Um, this is also a great way for us to get community community service hours and also bond with our leadership members and give back to our community for everything that they do for us. >> What is this? >> Okay, I didn't make this. Um, Rice Lake community thank yous. Um, thank you to Don Johnson Motors for first week teacher goodies. Domino's Pizza for our warrior leadership team fundraiser which ends on October 1st. Uh, thanks to Mr. Buckman's class for making our warrior leadership team suggestion boxes,
041Mrs. Amos class to for making our ho giveaway merch. And thank you to FBLA Forest Run, um, all the participate participants and sponsors last Saturday. >> Awesome. >> Thank you. >> Good job. >> I heard a little bit about that Domino's Pizza. >> Are there any questions? >> That Domino's Pizza fundraiser. That sounds like a pretty good deal for the buyer and the the students. So, >> so it's you uh buy one and you get one free >> unlimited >> and they get half the half the >> money. That's awesome. >> That's awesome. >> So, it's a >> pizza. Email me. >> Any other questions? >> Porter Porter gets some of his community hours in because he's a Chamber of Commerce young ambassador. >> There you go. >> Good one. >> All right. Thank you
042for that report. Thanks, Tim. >> Thank you. >> All right, >> let the tardy go. Porter, >> next we have our district administrator comments. >> Yeah, just a couple extra pieces. Um I think Rice Lake High School parent teacher conferences are this Thursday from 4:30 to 7:30. So, uh parents, if uh Mr. Pokey had sent out an email previously, if you want to sign up for a slot, you're able to do that. And then it's a bit a little ways off yet, but uh the Rice Lakeake High School uh cast and and adults involved are working on Mamma Mia, the musical that's going to be coming. Um I'll just get those these dates out there. Thursday, November 13th, and then Friday the 14th, and Saturday and Sunday the 15th and 16th. So the Thursday and
043Friday performances at 7 p.m., the Saturday and Sunday performances at 2 pm. Uh I think I looked at the uh Mrs. Kinziger had the cast list. um available today and I think there's about 40 students uh involved from the high school. So, uh that's impressive to see and you know it's going to be a good one. >> All right, thank you for that.
