While
a
virtual
meeting
of
this
type
was
not
envisioned
by
the
open
meetings
act,
steps
have
been
taken
to
ensure
that
this
virtual
meeting
includes
alternative
accessibility,
features
that
the
open
meetings,
ad
compliance
board
and
the
courts
have
reviewed
and
approved
broadcasting.
The
meeting
with
video
and
audio
and
on
cable
tv
and
on
the
web
and
allowing
written
public
comments
to
agenda
items
to
be
filed
with
the
board
office
and
considered
by
the
board.

Thank
you,
miss
hell
item.
2.05
is
recognitions.
I
do
not
believe
we
have
any
this
evening
item
2.06.
Is
the
policy
committee
update
and
before
we
begin,
I
just
want
to
take
a
couple
words,
a
presidential
privilege
to
thank
mr
lott,
mr
leib
joined
us
the
same
time.
C
I
I
joined
the
board
and
I
know
we're
going
to
be
doing
recognitions,
and
so
this
is
in
particular
with
him
as
policy
chair,
and
I
just
want
to
mention
that
his
leadership
is
exactly
what
I
envisioned
for
our
policy
committee
and
he
is
so
well
served
and
led
us
through
some
trying
times
all
of
our
core
committees,
particularly
the
policy
committee,
which
has
to
be
operating
at
all
times,
had
to
do
the
fast
shuffle
that
the
board
did
and
he
rose
to
the
occasion
recently
I
had
the
I
was
flipping
through
social
media
and
a
friend
of
mine
had
posted
a
quote,
and
I
read
the
quote:
didn't
know
who
actually
said
it
and
I
thought
of
mr
lott-
and
this
is
one
of
the
things
when
I
thought
of
him.
C
He
has
been
a
great
mentor
to
every
single
member
and
I
don't
think
that
I
could
better
express
what
I
felt
when
I
read
this
quote
so
pardon
me,
but
I'm
not
I'm
going
to
quote
somebody
else
here
unapologetically
and
this
is
from
fulton
j
sheen,
who
is
an
american
theologist
and
and
came
up
with
quite
a
few
altruisms
in
his
day,
and
it
says
patience
is
not
an
absence
of
action.
C
Rather,
it
is
quote
timing.
It
waits
on
the
right
time
to
act
for
the
right
principles
and
in
the
right
way,
and
bob
has
demonstrated
that
and
brought
new
meaning
to
the
word
team
in
a
very
trying
transition
bob.
I
cannot
thank
you
enough
for
your
leadership
as
our
policy
chair,
and
I
am
definitely
going
to
miss
you.
C
H
H
H
The
committee
is
committed
to
not
rush
this
effort,
believing
that
taking
our
time
and
ensuring
our
efforts
are
truly
collaborative
is
the
key
to
developing
a
solid
policy
recommendation
going
forward
and
I'm
confident
that
the
policy
committee
will
accomplish
that.
So,
thank
you
very
much
for
the
time
and
thank
you
for
your
comments.
Madam
president,
that's
my
report.
C
Since
our
last
report,
there
have
been
no
additional
funds.
However,
it
was
discussed
that
the
funding
that
that
was
distributed
by
the
federal
government
to
the
state
and
through
the
state
to
the
county
does
expire
on
december
30th.
So
we
are
hopeful
we
have.
Our
leadership
has
been
in
constant
communication
with
the
county
and
the
state,
so
hopefully,
as
they're
deciding
what
to
do
with
the
remaining
funding,
we'll
maybe
get
some
additional
relief
there.
C
It
was
also
discussed
that
the
state
has
been
looking
at
the
numbers
as
far
as
revenues
that
in
may
were
considered
were
feared
to
be
much
lower
than
now
current
projections,
but
we
don't.
We
don't
have
any
specifics
on
that.
Yet
there
will
be
a
meeting
on
december
15th
to
get
an
additional
update
on
that.
So
I
hope
we
will
have
some
more
specifics.
C
We're
just
hoping
that
the
budget
for
for
our
next
fiscal
year
will
not
be
too
deeply
impacted,
but
it
is
certainly
unrealistic
to
expect
that
there
won't
be
significant
impacts
on
on
funding,
particularly
because
our
student
enrollment
for
this
year,
which
is
a
number
that
is
used
to
determine
much
much
of
the
state
and
county
funding.
Our
student
enrollment,
is
down
at
about
one
and
a
half
to
two
percent,
so
I
know
that
various
agencies
mabe
our
school
system.
C
This
board
have
been
reaching
out
asking
for
our
legislative
legislators
to
look
at
some
sort
of
hold
harmless
provision
that
will
not
deeply
impact
our
our
budget
for
next
year.
Should
those
students
return,
which
I
think
is
largely
to
be
expected.
So
I'm
afraid
it
wasn't
the
the
happiest
of
occasions
this
evening
as
we
discuss
all
the
all
the
impacts
on
our
budget,
because
we
obviously
want
to
offer
our
students
all
the
services
they
need
for
a
top-notch
education.
C
F
F
I
am
very
excited
to
announce
that
the
elected
officers
have
selected
the
remaining
17
positions
of
the
crafts
executive
team.
We
have
a
record
number
of
applicants
this
year
and
the
talent
and
leadership
skills
were
evident
in
all
the
applications.
Congratulations
to
the
appointed
club
members.
We
are
so
excited
to
get
to
work

shout
out
to
several
board

C
You're
on
youth,
madam
present,
my
apologies.
I've
got
lots
of
names
and
stuff
coming
up
here
in
front
of
me,
so
my
apologies
for
that
next
is
item.
Oh,
where
is
it?
Okay?.
C
C
C
I'm
going
to
call
the
individual
and
they
will
be
provided
with
two
minutes
opportunity,
and
so
they
already
received
instructions.
C
Thank
you
so
very
much
for
obliging
them
and
we
are
going
to
start
we're
going
to
start
with
item
4.02
the
school
year
calendar.
My
understanding
is
the
one
individual
who
did
sign
up
for
virtual
testimony
is
not
yet
logged
in.
I
will
see
if
they
are
available
at
the
conclusion.
C
K
C
Okay,
next
is
judith.
C
C
Miss
hal
is,
has
he
signed
in
I'm
right
here
or
she
yeah,
okay,
great,
miss
keeler,
something
different.
This.
L
Time
good
evening,
my
name
is
judith
keeler
and
I
have
an
11th
grader
at
arundel
high
school.
We
are
taking
the
necessary
precautions,
as
coronavirus
cases
have
increased
drastically
in
the
past
few
weeks.
However,
if
our
community
acts
responsibly,
they
will
eventually
go
down
and
when
they
do
in
anne
arundel
county
and
were
within
public
health
guidelines
to
reopen
parents
should
expect
no
less
than
all
grade
levels
be
given
the
opportunity
to
return
to
the
classroom.
At
the
same
time,
we
have
to
be
ready
and
let's
have
a
strategy
in
place
for
our
secondary
students.
L
Too
much
time
has
been
spent,
picking
through
the
weeds
of
the
elementary
school
hybrid
model.
All
while
the
high
school
students
are
floundering
around.
In
a
repetitive
motion,
our
students
feel
trapped
in
life
right
now.
Last
week,
the
aacps
high
school
group-
let's
talk
justice,
presented
another
excellent
student-led
discussion
on
youtube.
L
This
one
titled
coping
with
anxiety
in
conjunction
with
leading
mental
health
professionals
in
the
county.
I
encourage
all
of
you
to
watch
the
discussion
led
by
mr
smith.
As
beckett
hummer
had
mentioned
earlier,
our
high
school
students
are
doing
the
best
they
can,
but
sitting
at
home
alone,
isolated
from
their
peers
and
having
half
their
classmates
cameras
turned
off,
isn't
cutting
it
for
them
and
it
shouldn't
be
cutting
it
for
us.
We
are
not
doing
our
best
for
them.
L
My
son
told
me
this
morning,
I'm
putting
in
my
time,
so
I
can
get
it
over
with.
As
for
the
14
reopening
committees
and
their
now
future
planning
committees,
they
must
have
parents
at
all
grade
levels
represented
as
well
as
a
mixture
of
clusters
throughout
the
school
district.
If
we
are
ever
to
be
truly
serious
about
meeting,
even
the
first
value
of
our
strategic
plan
all
meets
all.
Finally,
I
urge
you
to
plan
now
for
all
grade
levels
to
return
second
semester.
L
C
About
that,
I
I
think
I'm
double
clicking
next
is
miss
elizabeth
fine
and
thank
you
very
much.
Miss
keeler.
M
Hello
good
evening,
my
name
is
elizabeth.
Fine
and
I
am
the
mother
of
two
secondary
students,
a
former
public
school
teacher
and
military
wife.
Every
day
I
hear
another
story
about
successful
school
reopenings
across
this
country.
From
former
colleagues
of
mine,
america
is
failing
our
students
daily
by
not
reopening
when
there's
clear
evidence
that
schools
are
not
where
this
virus
is
spread.
A
professor
of.
M
M
M
B
M
M
C
N
I'm
not
sure
that
many
parents,
including
myself,
understand
specifically
why
in-person
instruction
is
not
an
option
available
to
parents
in
terms
of
the
safety
of
our
children.
According
to
cdc
data.
More
children
under
the
age
of
14
have
passed
away
from
the
flu
each
season
than
have
died
from
covet
over
the
last
eight
months.
N
N
N
N
I
also
understand
that
some
families
may
have
circumstances
in
which
members
of
the
household
are
considered
high
risk,
but
many
families
do
not.
Therefore,
one
size
fits.
All
solution
is
not
the
best.
Parents
should
be
given
the
choice
as
to
whether
they
want
their
children
to
return
to
in-person
instruction
or
continue
virtual
learning,
and
they
can
base
their
decision
on
individual
circumstances
and,
what's
best
for
their
children
and
their
families.
N
N
N
Do
more
so,
the
bottom
line
is
that
we
owe
our
to
our
children
and
their
future
to
provide
them
the
most
effective
education
possible
and
put
them
in
a
position
to
be
successful
in
life.
We
as
a
community
and
you
as
a
board,
have
the
responsibility
to
serve
the
best
interests
of
our
children
and
their
education.
Thank
you.
C
Thank
you,
sir.
We
had
a
couple
people
that
were
not
quite
signed
in.
I
want
to
give
them
an
opportunity
to
do
so.
I
had
on
reopening
plan
chanel
harrington
has
chanel
harrington
signed
in
no
ma'am.
She
is
not.
Chris
harrington
had
signed
up
for
two
items:
item
4.02
and
5.02.
C
Regrettably,
we
are
going
to
have
to
move
along
and
chris
butterbell.
C
Very
much
this
concludes
the
the
virtual
live
I'll
call
it
testimony
from
our
residents
miss
hell.
Would
you
please
report
on
the
items
that
were
submitted
for
written
testimony
to
the
board.
G
C
Thank
you
very
much.
Miss
hell
greatly
appreciated
next
item.
We
have
some
very
special
guests.
We
have
two
presentations
this
evening
under
section
four,
and
it
is
always
an
honor
and
a
privilege
to
have
our
anne
arundel
county
police
department
joining
us
this
evening
and
so
item
4.01
is
the
anne
arundel
county
police
department's,
fresh
s-t-a-r-t
program
and
a
statistics
update
for
the
board
and
I'm
going
to
ask
miss
tamika
perkins
to
first.
C
Q
Thank
you,
president
crocodile
I'd
like
to
introduce
corporal
michelle,
levier
she's
here
beside
me.
She
is
a
new
addition
to
our
unit,
since
we
last
addressed
the
board
also
on
the
call
is
major
katie
goodwin.
Regrettably,
chief
lowry
could
not
be
here
this
evening.
He
is
at
a
funeral
for
one
of
our
officers,
but
he
sends
his
regards.
Q
Much
can
everyone
see
my
screen
all
right
so,
just
before
the
pandemic
hit
myself
and
chief
altamari
addressed
the
board
discussing
some
of
our
diversion
programs
and
some
statistics
that
we
had
at
the
time.
We
just
wanted
to
provide
you
with
an
update,
because
at
the
time
we
we
mentioned
that
we
had
some
things
in
the
works
that
we
couldn't
yet
speak
about,
and
so
we
just
wanted
to
update
you
guys
on
that.
Q
For
those
of
you
who
were
not
able
to
see
that
presentation,
the
youth
services
division
of
the
anne
arundel
county
police
department
handles
all
juvenile
offenses
within
the
county.
That
would
be
school-based
as
well
as
patrol
base,
but
in
addition
to
those
the
the
charging
side
of
it,
we
also
are
responsible
for
officer
training.
Q
We
work
very
very
closely
with
our
crisis
intervention
team
to
make
sure
that
all
officers
have
up-to-date
and
relevant
training
on
things
like
trauma,
juvenile
specific
issues,
issues
related
to
victims
of
crime,
and
all
of
that,
additionally,
we
have
the
handle
with
care
program,
which
is
our
partnership
with
the
school
system,
designed
to
make
sure
that
teachers
and
administrators
are
aware
when
any
student
has
been
exposed
to
trauma
prior
to
entering
the
classroom.
I
just
wanted
to
give
you
all
an
update
that
that
program
has
continued
during
virtual
learning.
Q
We
still
send
notices
to
the
principal
prior
to
the
start
of
every
school
day.
Principals
do
have
a
way
that
they,
each
school,
has
their
own
individual
way
of
responding
to
that
counselors
involved
ppws
are
involved,
but
it
because
of
the
virtual
setting.
We
have
also
gotten
our
crisis
intervention
team
involved
to
ensure
that
the
most
vulnerable
among
us
are
still
receiving
services,
even
in
a
virtual
setting.
Q
My
unit
is
also
responsible
to
linking
youth,
as
well
as
their
families,
to
any
services
that
we
may
have
available,
so
that
could
be
mental
health,
behavioral
health
substance,
abuse,
support
groups,
anger
management,
coping
skills,
that
kind
of
thing,
so
we
want
to
make
sure
that
it's
not
just
necessarily
a
response
to
a
crime,
but
we're
very
heavily
involved
in
the
prevention
side
of
it
as
well.
Q
Q
Q
We
are
striving
as
a
department
to
to
let
the
data
drive
our
programs
so
that
we
can
really
use
an
equity
lens
and
be
very
intentional
about
our
programming.
So
just
an
review
for
those
of
you
who
were
not
able
to
see
that
presentation
in
march
just
an
update,
so
I
know
the
board
members
really
were
excited
when
I
got
the
opportunity
to
share
some
of
our
use
work.
So
this
is
just
some
updated
information.
Q
I
really
really
like
the
google
slide.
That
goes
along
with
a
full
campaign
on
mental
health
resources
that
are
available
during
the
age
of
covid,
so
we
met
with
this
young
person
prior
to
covet
happening
and
they
were
going
to
do
a
mental
health
awareness
campaign
for
us
as
one
of
their
interventions,
but
covet
happened,
and
so
they
made
it
even
more
relevant
so
that
their
their
peers
could
know
what's
available
to
them.
Q
Now
that
school
is
out
of
session,
as
you
can
see,
we
want
the
consequences
to
be
individualized
to
meet
both
the
root
cause
of
the
offense,
as
well
as
the
needs
of
the
individual.
Q
So
talking
about
impulse
control
talking
about
anger
management,
where
we
can
go
for
help
for
issues
that
we're
dealing
with
as
well
as
working
with
that
young
person
to
come
up
with
coping
skills.
If
this
is
a
need-based
offense
during
calendar
year
2019,
we
diverted
575
youth
away
from
the
juvenile
justice
system.
Now
that
would
be
both
school-based
offenses
and
patrol
offenses,
but
that
is
a
significantly
larger
number
than
we've
ever
done
before,
as
as
we
mentioned
in
march.
Q
We
see
in
the
diversion
study,
so
we
can
have
diversion
programs,
but
it
doesn't
necessarily
mean
that
they
are
addressing
racial
and
ethnic
disparities,
and
I
am
very
very
proud
to
say
that
for
the
third
year
in
a
row
that
we've
been
keeping
this
data,
are
our
diversion
programs
directly
impact
the
racial
and
ethnic
disparities.
R
So,
as
from
a
law
enforcement
standpoint,
well,
over
80
percent
of
the
youth
that
participate
in
our
diversion
programs
do
not
have
any
additional
contact.
That
goes
a
long
way
just
because
the
contact
with
law
enforcement
officers
isn't
always
the
most
pleasant.
But
we're
able
to
at
least
have
them
have
some
meaningful
consequences
that
we
are
not
reoffending,
but
we
no
longer
have
that
contact,
that's
adverse
to
their
their
lives
and.
Q
So
that
is
the
approach
that
we
are
taking
non-punitive
intervention
that
focuses
on
accountability.
So
since
we
last
spoke,
our
responsibilities
have
been
expanded.
A
couple
words
that
you're
going
to
hear
me
say
constantly
throughout
this
presentation,
one
of
which
is
is
intentional.
We
really
want
we're
looking
at
a
data-driven
approach
and
we've
taken
the
time
that
kovit
has
given
us
to
take
a
step
back
and
see
how
we
can
improve.
Q
Q
He
was,
and
he
is
on
another
zoom
call
about
another
youth
program
because
we're
constantly
expanding,
so
you
will
have
the
opportunity
to
meet
him
as
well,
and
the
other
words
that
you
will
continually
hear
me
talking
about
is
a
fresh
start.
That
is
the
goal
for
our
unit
as
a
fresh
start
and
start
is
actually
an
acronym
that
we
have
created.
That
kind
of
will
be
the
guiding
light
for
for
all
programs
that
you
see
coming
from
our
unit
from
here
on
out.
Q
Of
course,
one
thing
that
we're
always
going
to
to
talk
about
is
safety.
Safety
is
important
within
schools
within
patrol.
That
is
something
that's
very
important,
is
keeping
everyone
safe.
R
Trauma
informed
we
always
want
to
be
on
the
cusp
of
you
know,
recognizing
trauma
within
the
youth,
whether
it
is
from
a
microscopic
lens
or
a
larger
lens.
What's
going
on
with
the
individual
or
what's
going
on
within
the
home,
we
never
want
to
be
so
focused
on
a
particular
issue
that
we
forget
the
other
aspects
so.
Q
So
one
thing
I
think
that
we
mentioned
in
march
that
I
want
to
reiterate,
is
when
we
have
a
diversion
program,
every
single
one
of
those
students
who
go
through
that
has
an
over
hour
meeting
with
the
individual,
the
family,
as
well
as
a
panel,
because
we
want
to
get
to
the
root
of
the
issue.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
we
can
send
them
to
appropriate
services,
and
that's
because
we
definitely,
as
a
department,
want
to
come
from
a
trauma-informed
lens.
R
Accountable,
we
want
to
make
sure
that
these
children
understand
that
every
consequence
there
is
some
accountability
that
comes
along
with
it,
whether
they
see
it
as
accountable
in
just
taking
place
in
it
or
recognizing
that
what
they
did
can
be
fixed
and
the
behavior
can
be
fixed
behind
it,
but
just
accountability
in
general.
It
has
to
be
recognized
and
the
sooner
they
recognize
that
the
more
we
can
be
impactful
in
their
lives.
Q
Of
course,
everything
you
guys
know
how
big
of
a
fan
I
am
of
restorative
justice.
We
want
to
expand
the
way
that
we
allow
these
young
people
to
restore
their
community
ex
restore
their
school.
That
is
something
that
you
will
see
woven
into
all
all
aspects
of
our
program
and
that
part
will
actually
be
expanded
upon
as
well,
and
then
the
last
piece
is
something
that's
very
important
to
all
of
us
here
is
transparency.
R
So
the
minority
youth
advisory
council
is
one
of
our
new
initiatives.
We
just
recently
extended
the
deadline
for
the
application,
so
any
youth
that
you
all
have
in
mind.
Please
get
the
word
out.
We
extended
the
application
deadline
until
second
week
of
december,
so
the
minority
youth
advisory
council
is
essentially
a
program
that
gives
youth
the
opportunity
to
interact
with
law
enforcement
officers
and
engage
in
some
restorative
practices.
R
It's
going
to
include
a
restorative
justice
circle
that
gives
the
participants
a
chance
to
voice
their
feelings
with
the
facilitator
that
is
going
to
specialize
in
police
youth
dialogue.
It's
not
going
to
be
one
of
the
situations
where
the
youth
are
there
and
it's
just
the
beat
up
on
law
enforcement
section.
We
don't
want
that.
We
want
to
be
able
to
engage
in
a
healthy
environment
so
that
everybody's
feelings
are
addressed
and
understood.
R
It's
also
going
to
include
a
town
hall
piece
where
everybody
is
able
to
bring
to
the
table
things
from
their
community,
what
they're,
seeing
where
they
need
additional
resources
where
they
need
help.
And,
lastly,
there's
going
to
be
an
education
piece.
The
education
piece
is
so
important
because
it
allows
the
youth
to
get
something
out
of
the
program,
whether
it
is
teaching
them
how
to
enact
a
social
media
campaign
or
getting
informational
mental
health
trauma
and
also
some
substance,
abuse
intervention.
R
Q
The
the
very
unique
part
about
that
minority
youth
advisory
council
is
this
is
not
going
to
be
it's
going
to
have
action
items
so
that
education
piece.
If
the
youth
are
interested
in
learning
how
to
mount
a
social
media
campaign,
they
will
be
working
alongside
the
officers
who
have
been
selected
to
participate
to
create
action
items,
so
they
can
collaborate
and
improve
their
community.
The
recommendations
that
they
give
will
be
sent
up.
We
will
teach
them
how
to
do
it.
Q
How
how
to
do
a
report,
that's
with
recommendations
that
is
available
for
review
by
command
staff.
So
we
really
want
to
know
what
the
youth
says
so
that
we
can
be
more
intentional
in
our
programming,
because
what
we
may
think
the
community
needs
there
may
be
a
disconnect
from
what
the
community
thinks
they
need,
and
so
we
really
want
that
input
so
that
we
can
continue
to
design
our
programs
to
best
fit
the
needs
of
students
and
families
alike.
Q
The
next
item
that
is
getting
ready
to
roll
out
is
our
pre-arrest
aversion,
so
I'm
a
huge
proponent
of
diversion,
but
what
statistics
tell
us
is
that
diversion
alone
is
not
enough:
the
label
that
is
attached
to
a
charge
or
a
citation,
as
well
as
the
collateral
consequences
as
far
as
employment
military
service
that
are
associated
with
that
citation,
are
very,
very
real.
So
now
that
we
have
a
handle
on
the
on
our
diversion
efforts,
what
we
are
looking
to
do
as
a
department
is
push
it
back.
Q
One
step
what
that
means
is
there
is
a
for
for
divertable
offenses,
so
these
are
not
serious
offenses.
Your
second
degree
assaults,
your
fights,
your
misdemeanor
offenses,
non-violent
offenses
that
would
be
eligible
for
for
pre-arrest
diversion
prior
to
the
issuance
of
a
citation,
a
officer
or
civilian,
would
reach
out
to
the
family
for
participation
in
a
diversion
program.
Q
So
it
would
be
similar
to
our
other
programs
90
days,
individualized
consequences
linked
with
linkages
to
service
services,
link
with
linkages
to
our
crisis,
intervention
team,
any
mental
health
substance
abuse
services
that
they
need
as
well
as
mentorship,
and
that
would
be
done
in
lieu
of
charges.
Q
We
are
getting
ready
to
pilot
that
in
one
district
just
to
see
what
obstacles
we
face
in
that
before
rolling
it
out
county
wide,
it
will
be
available
to
all
all
officers
in
the
near
future,
but
that
is
the
direction
that
we
are
heading
to:
remove
the
stigma
associated
with
that
juvenile
citations
whenever
we
can,
as
well
as
implementing
early
intervention
strategies
to
make
sure
that
the
youth
have
the
the
resources
that
they
need
to
be
successful
and
we're
very,
very
excited
about
that,
and
our
officers
are
very
excited
about
that
as
well.
Q
And
then
the
final
thing
is
continuous
evaluation
of
our
programs.
You
all
know
that
I'm
a
data
person
and
I
always
want
our
officers
to
be
the
most
up-to-date
and
the
best
trained
officers
that
they
can
be
because
I
I
truly
believe
that
that
is
what
is
going
to
make
us
successful
as
collaboratively.
Q
So
during
the
time
of
covid,
that's
exactly
what
we've
been
doing
is
making
sure
that
our
officers
are
getting
training.
We
believe
that
sros
are
very
valuable
part
of
the
school
community
and
we
have
sought
to
continue
that
impact
during
covet.
Many
of
our
sros
have
been
temporarily
assigned,
while
school
is
out
to
assist
with
our
crisis
intervention
team.
That
means
that
they
are
checking
in
on
our
most
vulnerable
students.
They
are
following
up
with
those
students
who
may
be
struggling,
and
this
is
not
anything
enforcement
related.
This
is
purely.
How
are
you
doing?
Q
Is
there
anything
that
you
need?
Do
you
need
any
resources?
Does
your
family
need
any
resources?
Do
you
have
everything
that
you
need
to
be
successful?
Somebody
that
you
have
built
a
relationship
with
cares
about
you
or
somebody
that
you
didn't
know
before
cares
about
you.
You
are
not
alone
during
during
this
pandemic,
everyone.
Q
Q
We
did
some
refresher,
as
you
guys
know,
all
school
resource
officers
are
required
to
have
40
hours
of
specialized
statewide,
approved
training,
and
so,
in
addition
to
that,
many
of
our
sros
are
also
trained
in
crisis
intervention,
as
well
as
other
mental
health
areas,
but
we
went
out
and
we
specifically
talked
trauma.
Q
We
talked
about
the
trauma
of
covid,
we
talked
about
the
trauma
of
racism
and
the
social
justice
issues
and
how
that
is
going
to
affect
the
kids
when
we
do
go
back
to
school,
how
that's
going
to
affect
the
relationship
between
officers
and
kids,
and
we
talked
real
real
world
strategies
as
to
how
our
officers
can
repair
some
of
the
relationship.
That's
been
impacted
by
some
of
the
the
recent
events
in
the
across
the
nation.
Q
Then
we
also
talked
about
the
impact
of
the
environment
that
the
kids
are
feel
isolated
in
and
the
way
that
that's
going
to
affect
them
and
what
they're
going
to
bring
back
into
the
classroom
with
them.
We
wanted
to
make
sure
that
our
officers
knew
that
so
that
they
could
be
prepared
with
strategies
to
to
handle
that
as
well
as
helping
our
officers
recognize
that
it
affects
them
too,
and
so
they
can
use
the
way
that
it's
affected
them
in
building
those
relationships.
Q
We
also
hit
alternatives
to
charging
and
restorative
justice
very,
very
hard,
because
I
don't
think
that
we
can
ever
emphasize
that
too
much,
and
so
I
started
my
training
with
the
officers.
I
asked
them
to
write
answers
to
a
couple
of
questions
on
an
index
card
and
pass
it
up.
Q
So
that
was
anonymous
because
I
feel,
like
you,
always
get
very
honest
answers
when
you
ask
for
anonymous
feedback
in
this
situation,
and
so
I
asked
them
very
simply
what
they
thought
about
their
vision
for
the
sro
program
in
the
future,
as
well
as
how
they
feel
at
the
recent
events
nationally
will
impact
their
ability
to
do
their
job,
and
I
think,
a
lot
of
times
when
we
think
of
how
an
officer
would
respond
to
that.
We
think
about
safety
right.
That's
always
what
we
hear
our
officers
talk
about.
Q
While
it
was
mentioned.
The
number
one
thread
throughout
every
response
was
relationships,
our
sros
miss
being
in
the
building
because
they
miss
their
kids.
They
are
anxious
to
get
back
in
the
building
because
they
they
are
worried
about
their
kids,
because
they
do
have
a
good
understanding
of
trauma
and
mental
health
and
isolation.
Q
Q
Educator,
emergency
manager,
informal
counselor,
the
educator
piece
and
the
informal
counselor
are
the
parts
that
when
you
ask
it
our
sros
about
their
vision,
that's
what
they
reflected
on,
and
so
I'm
gonna
share
with
you,
because
I
I
I
could
come
up
here
and
talk
to
you
about
what
they
said,
but
I
I
want
you
guys
to
hear
it
from
themselves
from
them.
So
one
officer
said
my
vision
of
the
sro
program
is
for
it
to
be
a
mentoring,
relationship,
building,
informal
counseling,
educating
program.
I
want.
G
Q
I
think
the
recent
events
will
have
a
large
impact
on
our
ability
to
develop
relationships
with
students
for
a
little
while,
but
I
believe
we
are
highly
trained
and
we
will
eventually
overcome
those
obstacles
if,
if
we
are
allowed
to
get
back
into
school,
I
think
being
a
positive
influence
role
model
for
the
children
is
an
important
role
in
sro.
Q
Q
He
or
she
should
be
someone
that
the
students
can
turn
to
not
only
in
times
of
crisis
or
emergency,
but
also
in
times
of
accomplishment
and
joy.
In
order
to
accomplish
this,
the
sro
must
build
equity
into
his
relationships
with
students
and
faculty.
This
requires
walking
the
halls
and
grounds
interacting
with
students
and
making
every
effort.
Q
I
always
prefer
for
my
first
time,
interacting
with
the
student
not
to
be
during
a
moment
of
crisis
for
the
student
or
when
they're
in
trouble.
I
prefer
to
build
trust
and
equity
in
a
relationship
so
that,
in
the
event,
I
am
called
upon
to
interact
with
a
student
having
a
bad
day.
They
do
not
see
having
to
interact
with
me
as
a
consequence,
but
rather
as
a
diversion
to
a
consequence.
Q
He
says
he
he
feels
like
sro
should
be
at
the
forefront
of
instilling
trust
back
in
police
and
he's
prided
himself
on
having
honest
and
open
dialogue
with
high
school
students
about
all
aspects
of
police
work.
Both
positive
and
negative.
Q
I
think
that
these
conversations
are
necessary
moving
forward
and
he
wrote
a
lot
more
because
this
is
something
that
they're
very
passionate
about,
but
I
just
wanted
to
share
with
you
their
words
that
that
we
have
such
a
good
group
of
sros
that
I'm
so
very
proud
of,
and
they
truly
get
it
and
they
want
to
be
there
in
that
relationship
capacity,
and
I
think
our
commitment
to
change
and
our
efforts
that
we've
put
in
in
having
our
officers
understand
restorative
justice
and
trauma
and
really
the
commitment
that
our
officers
have
to
not
being
punitive
if
possible,
is
really
reflected
in
our
data.
Q
So,
even
when
you
account
for
coveted
closures,
we
still
saw
a
reduction
in
school-based
charging
during
the
19
school
year
of
over
20
and
unlike
other
jurisdictions,
who
have
seen
an
increase
in
racial
and
ethnic
disparities.
When
there
was
a
school
when
there
was
reduction
in
school-based
charging.
That
is
not
the
case
in
anne
arundel
county.
Q
So
if
you
can
look
at
this
chart
right
here,
the
blue
lines
would
be
would
be
accounting
for
the
number
of
school
days
that
we
actually
went
to
school
in
in
2019,
and
I
did
a
comparison
and
it
is
over
a
twenty
percent
decrease,
even
if
you
account
for
cova.
That's
what
that
red
line
demonstrates.
Q
So
our
efforts
are
working.
So
we
ask
for
your
patience
and
working
with
us.
We're
not
done
improving
we're
not
done
by
any
means.
So
we
are
in
communication
with
dr
harlato
and
the
schools
to
see
how
we
can
improve
even
better
once
we
we
get
kids
back
in
school,
but
we
just
wanted
to
let
you
know
that
we
weren't
sitting
by
and
wasting
our
time.
We
told
you
that
we
would
work
on
it
in
march
and
we
absolutely
have
thank
you.
C
Thank
you
so
very
much
ms
perkins
greatly
appreciated,
and
I
can't
thank
you
guys
enough.
Definitely
excellent
work
and
progress
report
is,
I
believe,
is
going
to
go
a
long
way
to
make
that
big
difference.
We
may
not
be
able
to
see
that
difference.
C
You
know
in
the
next
couple
months,
but
I
know
we're
going
to
reflect
back
on
this
moment
as
a
pivotal
one.
Thank
you
so
very
much.
I'm
going
to
open
this
up
this
time
and
we'll
call
order
because
we're
in
virtual
for
our
members,
but
before
I
do
miss
perkins,
was
there
major
goodwin
or
anybody
else
that
wanted
to
speak
for
a
couple
minutes
or
say
anything
before
we
proceed.
S
Now,
I'm
actually
here
just
for
moral
support.
I
could
not
be
any
more
proud
of
miss
perkins
and
officer
levier.
They
are
truly
the
rising
stars
in
our
department
and
I'm
just
proud
of
the
work
that
they
do
for
our
juveniles
and
our
counties
in
very
good
hands
with
them.
I
mean
we're
excited
about
moving
forward,
but
thank
you
for
having
us.
As
always,
we
appreciate
it.
C
Thank
you
so
very
much
for
all
your
service
and
all
you
guys
continue
to
do
while
we're
tucked
safely
at
home.
You
guys
are
on
the
front
lines,
keeping
us
safe,
so
we
have
that
we
have
the
the
wonderful
blessing
of
being
able
to
do
that.
So
thank
you.
Thank
you.
We're
gonna
go,
as
I
said,
in
roll
call
order,
and
this
evening
we
start
with
mr
gill
and
mr
noland.
T
Thank
you.
I
I
I
have
no
questions.
I
appreciate
the
report
and
presentation
tonight.
Ms
perkins,
I
remember
your
presentation
back
in
march.
I
believe
it
was.
You
had
was
three
young
friends
that
you
brought
with
you,
who
were
very
compelling
and,
above
all
you
know,
certainly
major
and
corporal.
Thank
you
for
your
your
work
and
effort
here,
specifically
here,
but
then
more
broadly,
you
know
what
you
do
on
a
daily
basis,
but,
ms
perkins,
you
are
the
work
beneath
the
iceberg.
T
You
know
we
see
the
tip
of
the
iceberg
and
I
think
the
public
sees
that.
But
you
do
such
amazing
work
and
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you
for
all
that
you
do
and
and
for
the
difference
you
make
every
day
in
in
the
lives
of
today's
young
people
and
tomorrow's
leaders.
C
Thank
you,
mr
golden
miss
hummer.
Yes,
the
same,
I
just
want
to
reiterate.
N
C
Thought
this
was
an
incredibly
detailed
and
rich
presentation
really
showing
us
the
data
and
how
your
programs
are
working.
C
I
love
how
you
describe
it
as
meaningful
intervention
and
that
we
want
to
do
pre-diversion
for
people
and
your
all
of
your
data
and
results
are
showing
that
those
things
are
working
and
it's
making
a
difference
for
our
kids
and
the
comments
that
you
read
from
the
sros
themselves,
just
back
up
everything
that
I've
seen
in
my
interactions
with
them
and
what
I've
heard
from
staff
that
works
with
them
every
day
is
how
much
the
job
means
to
them
and
what
they
are
trying
to
do
and
the
relationships
they're
trying
to
build.
C
J
Hello,
miss
perkins.
First,
I
want
to
say
this
was
a
very
wonderful
report.
It's
good
to
see
just
so
much
progress
going
on.
I
especially
want
to
say
the
teen
court
aspect.
I
have
a
good
friend,
you
may
know
him
peter
stevenson.
Yes,
sir,
he
loves
teen
courts.
J
And
you
know
it's
just
fantastic
to
see
what
it
can
do
for
students
that
are,
you
know,
interested
in
all
aspects
of
the
legal
profession
and
keep
students
out
of
trouble.
It's
really,
you
know
killing
two
birds,
one
stone
and
then
to
the
the
work
with
the
sro.
That
was
a
very
profound
words
that
officer
wrote.
It
was
just
so
moving.
Can
I
ask
what
you
know
what
school
he's
I.
Q
All
I'm
at
liberty
to
say
is
that
he
is
a
high
school
sro
and
he's
been
with
that
high
school
for
several
years,
very,
very
embedded
in
the
community.
J
I
think
I
think
that
passion
you
know
it's
just
so
good
to
know
that
we
have
officers
that
really
just
think
that
highly
of
their
job,
but
I
will
say
you
know
my
four
years
at
meade
high
school.
My
interactions
with
my
own
sros
have
been
limited.
I
guess
that
says
it
says
a
lot
about
my
own
character
right.
I
don't
need
to
interact
with
them,
but
you
know
still
be
nice.
You
know
just
you
know
from
hearing
that.
J
I
wouldn't
think
that
they
just
thought
that
highly
of
their
job
and
I'm
really
glad
that
you,
you
all,
are
pushing
towards.
You
know
more
interactions
going
back
to.
I
guess
that
officer
friendly
approach
right,
everybody
knows
his
name,
they
all
know,
and
he
knows
everyone's
name,
because
you
know
students
have
those
relationships
with
custodial
staff,
school,
cafeteria
staff.
You
know
pretty
much
every
other
person
in
the
building,
but
sometimes
you
know
the
sros
are
left
out.
J
So
that's
just
so
pleasing
to
hear-
and
I
do
have
one
question
for
you
with
the
minority
youth
council.
When
I
first
heard
about
it,
I
made
a
post
about
it.
You
know
for
all
the
other
students
to
see
and
just
sign
up,
but
so
is
this.
I
know
there's
an
application
to
it,
but
are
you
taking?
Are
you
limiting
the
amount
of
spots
on
the
minority,
youth
council
or.
Q
No,
sir,
so
what-
and
that
is
part
of
the
reason
why
we
extended
the
deadline
is
because
there
was
some
confusion
over
that
and
there
was
a
lot
going
on
at
the
time,
and
so
our
community
partners
actually
asked
us
to
extend
the
deadline
so
that
we
could
get
it
the
the
attention
that
it
it
deserves,
because
there
are
a
lot
of
people
who
do
have
a
lot
to
say
the
direction
I've
been
given
from
my
command
staff
is,
if
there's
somebody
that
has
something
to
say,
we
want
to
hear
it,
and
so
there
there
will
be
no
one,
and
we
have
had
a
very
good
turnout,
thus
far,
but
we
we
want
even
more
because
we
know
that
there
are
people
out
there
that
have
things
to
say,
and
this
is
an
opportunity
where
we
want
to
listen
our
our
sros,
our
officers.
Q
I
will
say
when
I
went
out
and
I
trained
every
single
officer.
Just
this
past
fall
and
we
mentioned
this
program
and
then
we
opened
it
up
and
said:
hey,
you
know.
Who
would
you
or
would
you
who
would
like
to
be
involved
in
it?
And
the
outpouring
of
support
from
our
officers
even
surprised
me
like
it,
blew
me
away
how
many
people
instantly
as
soon
as
the
email
went
out.
Q
I
don't
even
think
a
full
minute
went
by
before
I
had
my
first
reply,
and
so,
if
you
know
of
anyone
else,
please
continue
to
advertise
it,
because
we,
everyone
is
an
expert
of
their
own
experience
and
therefore
everyone
has
something
relevant
that
they
can
share
every
community
we
want
represented,
and
so
please
please
please
we
will
not
cap
it.
We
would
like
as
much
supporters
as
you
can
drum
up
for
us.
J
That
is
fantastic
because
I
was
worried
about
the
cap
and
I
want
students.
You
know
with
that
experience
to
go
with
that
is
so
very
exciting
to
hear.
I
will
definitely
now
sign
up
myself.
I
didn't
want
to
take
a
spot
away
from
somebody,
but
I
will
definitely
sign
up
and
keep
on
pushing,
because
this
is
just
you're
doing
amazing
work.
You
know
you're
taking
progressive
actions
and
it's
really
really
exciting.
So
thank
you
for
all.
You
do.
Thank.
C
Thank
you,
mr
smith.
Miss
ellis!
Thank
you,
mr
perkins.
It's
always
a
pleasure
to
see
you
with
us,
I'm
always
impressed
you're.
First
of
all,
when
I
was
a
candidate
and
an
early
board
member,
your
name
greatly
preceded
you.
Your
name
came
up
a
lot
and,
and
then,
when
you
presented
to
us
last
march,
I
understood
why
so
thank
you
for
all
you're
doing
for
our
youth.
C
As
I
can
recall
in
the
time
that
I've
been
on
the
board,
I
think
this
is
the
third
time
we've
had
a
presentation
that
involved
our
sros
mr
batten,
presented
to
us
one
time
early
shortly
after
I
became
a
board
member,
but
you
know
I,
I
understand
the
concerns
that
I
hear
sort
of
as
a
national
conversation
with
sros
in
our
schools,
but
the
more
I
learn
about
our
sros
and
now
for
the
third
presentation.
I've
seen
the
progress
that
continues
to
be
made.
C
I
really
feel
that
we
we
get
it
right
in
anne
arundel
county
and
the
the
service
that
they
provide
for
our
students
is
just
invaluable.
I
you
know
made
a
couple
notes
during
your
presentation
and
it
really
struck
me
the
the
two
boxes
that
were
what
was
it
informal,
counselor
and
educator.
I
mean
that
really
that
defines
it.
C
You
know,
as
far
as
the
difference
between
having
law
enforcement
in
the
school
and
having
someone
there
who's
actually
truly
there
for
the
students,
so
that
really
struck
me,
and
I
greatly
appreciate
that
you
you're
bringing
data,
because
that
really
puts
it
in
numbers
for
people
to
understand
how
many
students
are
really
being
saved
by
by
these
services,
their
their
entire
futures
can
be
turned
around.
C
That
being
said,
for
our
you
know,
there
are
still
many
members
of
the
community
that
have
a
great
deal
of
concern
with
having
officers
in
our
schools,
and
I
do
sometimes
wonder
you
know
just
how
much
can
you
ensure
the
consistency
of
of
the
attitude
and
the
spirit
with
which
these
officers
are
in
our
school?
So
can
you
talk
about
the
evaluation
or
review
process?
Is
there
an
annual
evaluation
of
our
officers
and
who
has
input
on
that
evaluation?
C
Q
I
will
answer
some
of
that
question
and
then
I'll
defer
to
major
goodwin
about
some
of
it,
because
it's
just
outside
of
my
purview
and
I
don't
want
to
speak
out
of
turn.
I
will
say
my
captain
pl
captain
plit,
who
could
not
be
here
this
evening.
He
was
at
the
first
presentation
with
me
me
and
him
he's
the
captain
over
the
sros
me
and
him
have
a
weekly
meeting
and
we
discuss
any
issues
because,
as
you
as
you
mentioned,
I'm
a
data
person.
Q
I
read
every
single
juvenile
report,
I
track
the
data
weekly
and
so
if
there
are
issues
or
concerns,
we're
going
to
nip
it
early
and
so
me
and
him
do
stay
in
constant
communication.
I
am
in
constant
communication
with
the
school
resource
officers
and
and
so
and
we
meet
regularly.
We
train
regularly
to
ensure
that
those
best
practices
do
not
stay
isolated,
that
they
do
get
shared.
Q
If
I
find
national
best
practices,
I'm
going
to
push
it
out,
but
if
any
there's
actually
an
email
chain,
if
there
are
other
things
that
they
notice,
they
share
it
amongst
themselves
and
until
we
can
meet
again,
but
also
I
will
meet
with
captain
weekly
so
that
we
can
discuss
areas
of
concern
as
well
as
spread
successes
and
make
sure
that
it
does
roll
out.
I
mean
that
is
something
that
he
is
very
invested
in
and
it
has
has
worked
for
us
as
far
as
progressing
recently.
Q
But
I
know
he
will
often
make
the
comment.
We
may
not
always
be
perfect,
but
I
don't
think
there's
any
department
around
that
will
try
harder
than
us,
and
so
we
want
to
catch
it
early
and
we
are
always
willing
to
hear
feedback
from
the
community
members
from
faculty
and
things
like
that
and-
and
we
want
to
hear
it
early
so
that
we
can
fix
it.
Q
So
I
I
don't
necessarily
know
that
that
answers
all
of
your
question,
but
when
it
comes
to
that
there
is
a
very
open
line
of
communication
and
there's
our
frequent
conversations
about
that,
because
we
want
to
be
the
best
and
if
there's
a
new
practice
out
there,
we
want
to
be
the
first.
So
major
goodwin,
if
you
can
can
pick
up
for
me.
S
Yeah,
absolutely
so
you
know
I'll
start
with
this.
We
know
that
not
everyone
can
be
a
police
officer,
and
we
also
know
that
not
every
police
officer
can
be
a
school
resource
officer
and
we
recognize
that.
So
it
is
a
selective
process.
Officers
do
have
to
put
in
an
application
that
has
to
go
through
the
chain
of
command.
There's
an
interview
board,
there's
questions
that
are
asked,
and
then
we
have
to
decide
who
we're
going
to
select,
and
that
has
to
be
very
by
my
level
the
sros
fall
under
me.
S
I
have
all
the
patrol,
including
our
sros,
we're
very
selective
on
that
officer
and
there's
traits
that
you
saw
up
on
that
one
slide
where
there's
four
categories:
that's
the
type
of
officer
that
we're
looking
for
and
that
will
shine
through
just
from
their
experiences
that
they're
already
doing
in
the
communities,
because
all
of
our
officers
are
supposed
to
be
engaging
with
the
youths
out
in
the
communities.
So
we
hear
about
that,
so
we're
very
selective,
we're
very
selective
on
what
officers
go
and
what
schools
and
what
needs
there
are
in
their
schools.
S
And
it's
something
we're
constantly
reassessing
before
it
was
even
mandated
with
training
all
of
our
sros
go
through
a
40-hour
training.
S
So
not
only
are
they
additionally,
the
police
training,
but
then
once
they
are
selected
for
an
sr,
they
go
through
40
hours
of
specific
training.
A
lot
that
tamika
teaches
that
talks
about
all
those
things
you've
been
seeing
on
our
slides
they're
then
paired
up
with
another
sr.
So
it's
not
like.
We
put
them
in
a
school
by
themselves.
They
actually
train
with
another
sro
to
kind
of
follow
their
lead
before
they
go
into
a
school
on
their
own,
and
then
we
monitor
them
to
see
how
they're
doing
supervisors
are
always
going
in.
S
We
have
two
sergeants
and
a
lieutenant
oversees
our
sro
program,
so
they're
evaluating
them
and
seeing
how
they're
doing
I'm
talking
to
the
school
administrators
getting
feedback
from
them
getting
feedback
from
our
students.
I
go
into
the
schools
quite
often
and
to
watch
them
in
action
and
I'm
impressed
with
them
every
single
time
I
go
into
those
schools,
but
then
there's
additional
ongoing
training.
So
it's
not
just
that
initial
train,
but
every
year
before
school
starts,
miss
tamika
gets
them
all
together.
S
We
do
training
not
only
just
with
the
sros,
but
we
include
the
school
administration
and
we
do
training
together
with
them
also.
So
it's
continuous
it's
not
just
a
one-time
deal
and
it's
it's
constantly
looking
at
our
program
and
trying
to
make
it
the
best.
We
can
understand
what
other
agencies
have
reached
out
to
us.
We
are
the
model
for
the
training
curriculum
that
we
put
together.
So
we
now
go
out
and
train
the
other
agencies
using
our
curriculum
model.
Q
Miss
ellis
yeah
go
ahead.
I
just
wanted
to
add.
We
have
really
high
hopes
for
our
minority
youth
advisory
council.
For
that
reason,
because
we
want
that
input
about
how
we
can
improve,
and
so
our
sros
are
going
to
be
involved
in
that
program
as
well
as
patrol
because
it
like
I
said
we
always
want
to
get
better,
and
so
we
are
always
willing
to
hear
that
feedback
and
anything
that
is
shared
with
me.
I
certainly
take
back
to
both
captain
lieutenant
johnson
and
then,
and
then
the
sros
as
well.
C
Thank
you
yeah.
I
can
just
imagine
that
you
know
the
the
best
way
to
determine
if
an
individual
officer
is
getting
that
relationship.
Aspect
of
their
position
right
is
is
to
survey
the
school
community
in
some
way.
S
Since
taking
over
the
school
resource
officer
has
been
about
two
years,
I've
not
seen
that
what
I
have
seen
sometimes
school
resource
officers
get
a
little
burnt
out
and
they
need
a
break.
That's
more!
What
we
see
you
know:
we've
had
sros
that
have
been
there,
some
schools
for
13
15
years,
it's
very
demanding,
and
it
gets
to
the
point
where
I
think
they
just
recognize
hey.
You
know
what
I'm
getting
a
little
burnt
out.
S
I
think
I
need
to
change,
but
as
far
as
it
not
being
a
right
fit,
we
haven't
come
across
that
yet
we're
doing
pretty
good
on
selecting
them
and
putting
them
in
those
great
schools.
But
I
think
the
burnout
is
more
of
an
issue
when
we
see
that
turnover.
C
D
Thank
you,
president
corcodell,
and
thank
you
miss
perkins.
I
just
share
the
views
of
the
other
board
members.
That's
certainly
one
of
the
best
third-party
presentations
that
I've
heard.
On
my
time
on
the
board,
you
gave
a
very
impactful
statistic
about
basically
that
the
high
percentage
of
students
who
go
into
diversion
who
never
have
another
contact
with
law
enforcement.
I
don't
remember
the
exact
video
80
or
something
in
that
neighborhood
comes
to
mind
and
I'm
just
wondering.
Is
there
an
analogous
figure
for
students
who
don't
go
into
diversion?
Q
So
then-
and
this
is
not
anne
arundel
county
specific-
this
would
be.
The
national
data
is
between
45
and
55
of
students.
Would
re
or
juveniles
would
re-offend
in
via
traditional
justice
methods.
D
O
Thank
you
so
very
much
for
your
presentation.
Just
like
last
march.
This
one
was
wonderful
and
informative
and
I'm
so
very
grateful
for
it.
I
want
to
echo
what
my
colleagues
have
said
and
their
high
praise
for
you
and
your
staff
and
for
all
the
sros.
I'm
I'm
just
really
grateful
for
this
partnership
and
I
think
it
hinges
on
on
relationships
the
same
kind
of
relationships.
O
We
talk
about
between
our
students
and
any
other
trusted
adult
in
the
building
and
how
very
important
that
is,
and
how
much
that
matters,
and-
and
I
I
love
how
they
are
that
it's
that
the
sros
are
there.
You
know
searching
for
that,
searching
for
the
relationship
with
the
student
in
a
non-law
enforcement
sense.
First,
and-
and
I
I
just
think
that
that's
sorry,
my
family
is
very
loud
in
the
background,
and-
and
I
really
I
just
think
that
that's
wonderful.
O
I
had
one
question
for
you
and
that's
about
diversity,
on
the
sro
force
and
and
what
what
how
you're
looking
to
to
match
the
diversity
in
our
in
our
community,
both
in
terms
of
race,
ethnicity
and
and
gender.
So
if
you
can
speak
to
that,
I'd
love
to
hear
it.
S
S
You
know
we
just
lost
one
of
our
great
sros
to
retirement
corporal
vazquez,
who
was
in
our
annapolis
middle
school
because
she
speaks
spanish
and
that's
a
heavy
populated
school
with
spanish-speaking
students.
So
it
was
a
great
fit
for
her
being
in
that
school.
So
that's
the
kind
of
thing
that
I'm
talking
about
so
yeah,
absolutely
we're
always
looking
for
diversity,
especially
when
it
comes
to
our
srs,
because
we
want
them.
S
I
think,
when
we're
relating
to
kids,
they
need
to
relate
to
someone
that
looks
like
them
and
that
helps
a
lot
with
that
relationship
building
part
of
it.
So
it's
something
that
we
always
have
in
the
back
of
our
head
and
we're
always
taking
into
consideration
in
that
program
for
sure.
But
thank
you
for
asking
that.
O
That's
wonderful
and
how
many
women
do
we
have
on
the
within
anne
arundel
county
public
schools
in
an
sro
capacity?
At
this
point,
can
you.
S
O
Well,
like
I
said
before,
I'm
really
just
I'm
very
grateful
for
this
partnership.
I
I
think
it's
I
think
it's
fabulous.
I
I
look
forward
to
its
continuation
in
a
brick
and
mortar
setting
once
it's
safe
to
do
so,
and
I'm
I
just
very
grateful.
So
thank
you
so
much
for
your
wonderful
presentation
and
it's
always
wonderful
to
see
you
thank.
C
Miss
antoine,
if
you
could
there,
we
go.
A
A
No
worries,
thank
you
so
much
to
major
goodwin,
miss
perkins
and
the
young
cultural.
Thank
you.
You
came
on
sharing
and
a
congratulations
to
chief
lowry
as
well.
You
guys
came
on
presenting
some
real
realities
that
one
you
guys
are
stretched,
and
yet
you
continuously
do
the
job
that
you've
been
blessed
to
take
on
and
you
voluntarily
stepped
up
to
protect
and
serve.
A
Thank
you
for
that.
Last
last
march,
with
the
board
of
education
put
forth
a
a
motion
that
was
passed
that
the
citation
and
arrest
report
that
you
all
well,
I
should
say,
mr
perkins,
that
you
painstakingly
generated
be
presented
to
us
each
november.
A
So
I
am
amazed
that,
with
all
the
negative
that
has
realistically
been
out
there
about
the
police
in
general,
the
more
the
as
well
as
the
protest
and
the
I
would
say,
the
death
of
george
floyd.
It
is
difficult
to
build
trust
and
relationships
when
you
are
a
young
person
witnessing
such
hate
to
see
your
presentation,
I
commend
you
highly
that
you
did
not
fail
to
continue
the
work
that
you
have
strived
to
do
and
the
change
that
you
are
continuously
making.
Thank
you
again.
A
My
question
would
be
about
recruitment
witnessing
what
our
youth
have
witnessed.
They
may
not
want
to
grow
up
to
be
police
officers,
the
same
way
that
they
may
have
before
they
witnessed
some
of
what
they
witnessed.
S
There
is
no
age
requirement,
so
we've
had
you
know
anyone
from
21
years
of
age,
in
our
police
academy,
to
the
oldest
that
I
can
remember
was
I
was
at
the
academy
to
53
years
old.
You
just
have
to
be
able
to
pass
every
so
anyone
out
there.
That's
in
the
50s,
don't
say
you
can't
become
a
police
officer.
I've
seen
it
happen
and
they've
been
very
good
and
very
successful.
A
S
Well,
thank
you
for
asking
that
and
we
are
accepting
applications
right
now.
So
please
tell
that
gentleman
to
put
in
we're
definitely
hiring
yes,.
A
Ma'am
and
then
my
my
second
question
would
be
about
the
data
you
mentioned
and
being
intentional
and
the
fresh
start
program.
I
appreciate
those
programs
how,
based
on
everything
that
has
gone
on
in
2020.
L
Q
So
miss
antoine.
Can
you
repeat
your
question?
You
broke
up
just
right,
as
you
asked
the
first
part.
A
Q
Q
Those
are
great
partners
that
have
helped
us
get
the
recruitment.
The
student
turnout
has
been
really
really
good.
I've
been
very
impressed
and
and
the
quality
of
the
applications
and
the
passion
that
the
students
have
and
the
mention
of
the
fact
that
there
are
conversations
that
are
occurring
in
the
school
that
is
promoting
them
and
pushing
them
towards
having
the
conversations
with
us
has
been
phenomenal,
and
so
I
I
wanna
to
put
that
out
there,
because
it
has.
It
has
truly
made
a
difference
and
major
goodwin.
Q
As
far
as
any
other
programs,
I
will.
I
will
defer.
S
Yeah
I
mean
I
echo
exactly
what
you
said.
We
can't
do
this
job
alone,
just
like
with
anything
else.
It's
a
partnership,
it's
a
partnership
with
every
agency,
every
department
in
this
county.
The
schools
have
been
a
wonderful
partnership
with
the
police
department.
We
do
everything
in
tangent,
we
train
together.
We
talk
constantly,
we
run
things
by
each
other,
so
I
can't
be
more
proud
of
that
relationship.
It's
continuous!
It's
like
any
other
relationship.
S
It
requires
attention,
time,
patience,
trying
to
hear
both
sides
and
then
coming
to
some
compromises
sometimes,
but
you
know,
I
think,
we're
very
fortunate
in
this
county
that
we
have
very
good
and
strong
and
deep
relationships,
not
just
with
the
school,
but
all
the
entities
in
this
department
in
the
county
and
that's
half
the
battle
right
there.
The
communication.
Q
And
miss
antoine,
I
will,
I
will
also
say
when
it
comes
to
to
feedback.
That's
that's
always
helpful,
and
so
I
every
member
of
the
board
has
my
contact
information,
and
so
any
any
input
from
you
guys
would
be
extremely
helpful.
I
hope
that
I've
proven
between
march
and
now
that
we
take
that
input
very
seriously
and
and
we're
trying
to
build
that
trust.
And-
and
you
know
we
don't
stop-
we
don't
slow
down
so
so,
please.
I
will
extend
that
to
you
as
well.
Q
A
H
Thank
you,
madam
president,
I
I
have
no
questions.
I
just
like
to
join
my
colleagues
and
their
very
supportive
comments.
Ms
perkins,
and
one
thing
I
know
you
all
are
very
dedicated
to
the
support
of
the
students
in
anne
arundel
county,
and
for
that
we
are
all
very,
very
grateful.
Thank
you.
Thank.
C
Thank
you,
mr
ladd.
I,
as
a
as
a
member,
do
have
a
couple
things
first
to
thank
you
guys
so
very
much.
Once
again.
I
know
our
partnership
goes
a
long
way
to
making
such
a
huge
difference
in
so
many
students
lives,
and
that
remains
continual.
I
just
wanted
to
comment
that
I
was
very
encouraged
to
hear
about
our
trauma-informed
updates
and
how
they
are
woven
well
woven
in.
C
I
I've
been
asked
to
join
a
couple
communities
of
late
in
the
last
several
weeks
and
what
was
seemingly
outside
of
the
box,
but
very
appropriate,
particularly
in
this
moment
in
time,
is
how
many
people
were
asking
us,
including
one
of
my
former,
not
my
child
partners,
miss
latoya
and
as
to
the
update
on
on
training
of
trauma
informed
and
how
how
far
we've
come
since
she
has
last
engaged
both
our
wellness
committee
here
at
the
school
system,
as
well
as
what
you
guys
are
up
to,
and
I
told
her
to
just
hang
tight
and
stay
informed,
because
I
I
had
a
feeling
we
were
going
to
hear
some
some
great
progress
information
and
most
certainly
we
did
so.
C
Thank
you.
So
very
much
because
I
I
really
do
think
that's
where
the
concerns
are
right
now
is
how
we
capture
those
children
experiencing
whether
it's
you
know,
substance
use
going
on
in
the
household
or
of
a
sibling,
and
the
abuse
and
the
sros
are
the
front
line,
and
that
is
probably
one
of
my
largest
concerns
rolling
into
this
next
winter
months
is
how
we're
going
to
address
that
and
knowing
that
you
guys
are
there.
Q
Q
We
just
recently
went
out
and
trained
every
single
officer
on
every
single
shift,
with
the
support
of
command
staff
on
the
handle
with
care
program,
and
we
stressed
to
them
that
right
now
we
are
the
eyes
and
ears
and
it's
more
important
than
ever
to
make
sure
that
those
notices
come
in
every
single
time
so
that
we
can
link
them
to
services,
especially
while
we
have
the
extra
bodies
with
our
crisis
intervention
team,
and
so
I'm
confident
that
that
they
understood,
because
we
have
done
so
much
trauma
training
with
them,
and
so
we
are
getting
those
notices.
Q
We
are
continuing
to
send
those
notices
I
meet
with
or
have
a
phone
conversation
with
lieutenant
thomas
excuse
me,
who
is
over
our
crisis
intervention
team
very
regularly
to
make
sure
that
whatever
we
can
do
because
we
know
how
pivotal
it
is
in
this
time,
whatever
we
can
do
we're
doing
and,
of
course,
we're
we're
always
willing
to
to
think
outside
the
box
about
how
we
can
do
more
for
sure.
So
if
you
can,
please
share
that
update
with
on
those
committees
that
you're
on
me.
Thank
you.
C
Thank
you.
I
am
certainly
going
to
because
that
that
to
me
is,
is
progress
and
hopeful
news.
We
could
all
use
a
little
bit
of
hope,
but
I
just
had
one
other
question.
I
don't
mean
to
take
up
everybody's
time
and
I'm
watching
these
emerging
numbers
on
substance,
use
and
opioid
and
the
fatalities
of
opioid,
and
I
know
that
that
has
a
direct
impact.
C
You
guys
are
also
not
just
our
eyes
and
ears,
for
you
know
the
domestic
component
comports,
but
that
opioid
use
and
substance
use
could
could
you
just
say
a
couple
words
to
that
on
on
how
our
sro
program
is
continuing.
I
mean
you
guys
are
on
the
front
lines
on
that.
So
I
don't
know
if
it's
more
of
a
comment
than
a
question,
it's
not
necessarily
a
question,
but
I
gotta
say
it's
it's
startling
and
I
think
it's
gonna
it's
gonna
rise
and
I
think
we're
gonna
see
a
spark.
Q
Coincidence,
yeah,
so
I
can
speak
on
the
juvenile
side
and
then
again
I'll
defer
to
major
goodwin
for
the
adult
side.
Just
so,
I
don't
speak
out
a
term.
We
have,
as
a
unit,
have
developed
a
partnership
with
the
pathways
program
and
we
work
with
the
substance
abuse
prevention
coalitions
as
well,
but
with
our
working
with
the
pathways
program.
That
is
a
mandated
consequence
because
we
want
to.
Q
We
want
to
make
sure
that
we
can
get
them
as
early
as
possible.
Handle
with
cares
are
not
limited
to
handle
care.
Notices
are
not
limited
to
domestic
situations;
it
would
be
any
time
there's
a
law
enforcement
presence,
so
that
would
include
if
there
was
a
witnessing
of
an
overdose
or
other
issues
like
that.
So
it's
not
just
on
the
domestic
side,
so
we
we
do
recognize
that
as
trauma
the
handle
of
care
program
actually
started.
Q
Excuse
me
out
of
canal
county
west
virginia
in
response
to
the
opioid
crisis,
so
that
is
certainly
something
that
numbers.
While
I
I
never
know
what
the
hint,
what
triggered
the
handle
with
care
notice?
That
is
something
that
certainly
would
trigger
that,
and
those
partnerships
with
pathways,
as
well
as
the
monitoring
of
handling
care
notices,
has
continued
around
during
covet
throughout
covet,
and
so
I
can't
give
you
data
on
that
information,
because
I
don't
know
what
sparks
the
handling
cameras,
but
I
know
that
it
would
absolutely
it
would
absolutely
trigger
one.
C
C
You
know
the
most,
the
the
largest
responses
from
not
my
child
and
some
of
the
others
in
general-
and
you
know
I
remember
going
into
those
high
schools
and
how
many
kids
were
lit,
just
looking
to
seek
the
relief,
and
it
is
really
hard
for
me
to
visualize
recognizing
how
hard
it
was
for
them
to
do
this
in
person
to
have
that
additional
barrier-
and
I
know
we're
we're
just
gonna-
have
to
continue
to
work
harder
on
it.
Q
I
know
that
both
the
county
executives
youth
advisory
council,
which
I've
had
the
opportunity
to
work
with,
as
well
as
our
youth
advisory
council.
That
is
something
that
will
be
discussed
because
I
think
a
lot
of
times
when
we
talk
prevention
or
response
and
intervention
to
the
opal
opioid
crisis.
Q
We
talk
a
lot
about
what
we're
going
to
do
for
kids,
but
the
youth
voice
is
oftentimes
missing
from
the
conversation,
and
so
I'm
really
hoping
that
with
these
new
youth,
centered
interventions
or
excuse
me
youth,
centered
initiatives,
we
will
be
able
to
to
say:
okay,
what's
going
to
work,
what
is
needed,
and
so
I
think,
that's
a
an
area
where
we
don't
have
much
answer
now,
but
I'm
hopeful
that
we'll
have
have
a
better
handle
on
in
the
future.
C
Well,
I've
seen
how
we
move
mountains
together
in
the
past
and
how
you
guys
in
particular,
have
moved
many
a
mountain
and
I'm
confident
that
we'll
be
able
to
traverse
the
one
and
move
the
next
if
we
need
to
together.
So
thank
you
guys
so
very
much
and
I
have
no
more
questions
I'll,
just
ask
any
additional
members.
Any
follow-up.
C
We
still
have
quite
a
bit
of
business
to
conduct,
but
okay,
seeing
eye
movement
and
muted.
Okay,
I
unfortunately
in
in
our
newer
platform,
do
not
have
the
recognition
of
all
the
members
right
at
my
fingertips
like
we
had
in
the
previous.
So
yes,
michelle.
O
Thank
you
just
just
a
couple,
very,
very
quick,
follow-up
questions
regarding
the
schools
that
our
sros
are
in.
Are
they
are
they
currently
or
if
we
were
back
in
brick
and
mortar?
Would
they
currently
be
in
all
high
schools
and
middle
schools
at
this
point?
Are
there
any
that
that
don't
have
coverage.
S
Yeah,
so
when
schools
go
back
and
we
have
them
in
all
of
our
high
schools,
we
have
them
in
all
of
our
middle
schools,
except
for
two
of
the
middle
schools,
and
those
are
campuses
where
the
high
school
and
middle
school
are
right
next
to
each
other.
So
the
one
sro
kind
of
goes
back
and
forth.
When
school
year
begins,
we
are
committed
to
put
an
sro
in
every
one
of
our
middle
schools
and
that
would
include
also
the
crofton
high
school.
O
Fantastic
and
then
how
does
it
work
regarding
the
relationship
with
the
the
city
police
department?
Can
I
I
don't
represent
district
6?
I
represent
district
5,
but
I
I
just
want
to
know
a
little
just
a
tiny
bit
about
that.
O
Q
With
regard
to
juvenile
operations,
we
work
very
very
closely
with
annapolis
city
police
department.
They
assist
us
with
all
of
our
diversion
efforts.
They
participate
in
all
of
our
diversion
efforts,
and
so
any
student
who
is
charged
in
annapolis
city
by
annapolis,
city
police
is
all
of
our
resources
are
available
to
to
that
youth
as
well.
We
have
a
very
strong
and
collaborative
relationship
with
them
with
regard
to
all
of
our
programs.
Yes,
ma'am.
O
Fantastic,
so
all
of
the
the
juveniles
would
be
able
to
take
part
in
all
the
programs
that
you
offer,
even
if
they
reside
within
the
city
of
annapolis.
Yes,.
O
Thank
you
so
much
appreciate
the
the
last
little
bits
of
follow-up.
C
Great
thank
you
very
much.
Michelle
heim
once
again
miss
perkins.
I
can't
say
enough
for
you
and
your
team
and
please
express
our
sincere
gratitude
and
appreciation
on
behalf
of
the
board.
C
You
guys
are
working
so
so
hard
and
making
such
a
great
difference
and
major
goodwin,
always
a
pleasure
working
with
you
and
looking
forward
to
hearing
from
you
guys
again,
hopefully
pretty
soon,
maybe
sometime
in
the
late
spring,
based
on
you
know,
to
look
see
at
the
calendar
and
obviously,
if
you
have
a
need-
and
I
know
dr
arlano
and
his
team
have
an
excellent
working
relationship
with
you
guys,
dr
elata,
before
we
conclude,
did
you
have
anything
you
wanted
to
say
to
the
team.
P
P
Opportunity
to
to
talk
so
positively
about
our
sro
unit.
They
truly
are
amazing.
P
I've
heard
you
say
it
before,
and
certainly
over
the
last
15
years
it's
been
a
fabulous
relationship,
the
what
what
miss
perkins
read,
which
was
so
powerful
from
two
of
the
sros
during
that
that
they
shared
during
their
training,
is
what
you
see.
It
was
what
you
truly
see
in
the
buildings
when
you
see
them
interacting.
P
It
is
fabulous
for
mrs
perkins
and
the
team
to
share
not
only
their
focus
on
training
and
accountability
which
are
important,
but
to
hear
them
talk
about
trauma,
informed
and
making
sure
the
officers
know
from
which
direction.
They're
coming
and
students
are
a
sole
focus
on
restorative
practices
is
incredibly
important,
and
this
is
all
wrapped
up
in
educating
our
students
right.
We
know
our
young
people
gonna
make
bad
decisions,
it's
part
of
growing
up,
and
so
we
need
them
to
learn
from
that
and
so
to
have.
P
The
support
of
our
sru
sro
unit
and
the
police
department
overall
has
just
valued
us
as
we
are
working
to
educate
our
students.
That's
what
we
do
together.
So
the
diversion
programs
have
certainly
been
helpful
in
that,
but
it
all
wraps
up
in
what
so
many
of
you
have
talked
about,
and
ms
perkins
talked
about
so
eloquently
which
is
building
relationships.
P
Our
sro
unit
does
a
fabulous
job
of
building
relationships
every
day
and
and
with
the
students
and
with
the
staff.
They
truly
are
parts
of
the
staff
of
those
buildings
they
are
seen
as
staff
members.
So
I
thank
miss
perkins
and
corporal
beshear
certainly
always
good
to
see
you
major
goodwin
and
captain
cliff
for
his
leadership
in
the
sro
unit.
We're
very
thankful.
So
thank
you.
C
Once
again,
our
condolences
to
the
police
community,
I
know
that
one
of
the
reasons
that
you
guys
are
so
successful
is
because
you're
such
a
close
family.
So
please
extend
that
to
chief
lowry
and
tell
him
thank
you
very
much
for
everything
and
we
look
forward
to
our
continued
partnership.
Thank
you
guys.
So
very
much
absolutely.
C
Next
is
item
4.02,
the
2021
2022
school
year,
calendar
presentation-
and
this
evening
mr
mosher,
our
chief
of
communications
here
at
aacps,
will
be
leading
this
presentation.
Mr
mosher,
please.
U
So,
thank
you,
president
corcodell,
for
the
record
bob
mosher
chief
communications
officer
here
to
present
item
4.02,
which
is
the
presentation
of
the
recommendations
of
the
calendar
committee
for
the
2021-2022
school
year
calendar.
The
committee
did
ask
that
some
of
its
members
have
a
chance
to
speak.
U
Moving
okay,
so
the
calendar
committee
is
made
up
of
a
mix
of
school
system,
employees
and
representatives
from
our
bargaining
units
and
parent
and
student
groups.
So
every
bargaining
unit
is
extended,
two
invitations
to
attend
the
committee
and
then
cac
pta
and
crass
get
to
each
and
then
there's
one
representative,
each
from
the
departments
that
you
see
there.
U
So
the
committee
has
provided
you
with
two
options
that
incorporate
that
their
top
priority
is
one
on
which
classes
begin
on
august,
the
30th
and
end
on
the
14th
of
june
and
the
second
classes
begin
on
the
8th
of
september
and
end
on
the
21st
of
june
for
students.
They
made
two
other
recommendations.
U
One
is
to
move
parent-teacher
conferences
later
than
they
are
in
2020
2021
in
the
fall.
They
were
october,
12th
and
13th
this
year,
and
so
we'll
talk
about
where
they
place
them.
U
In
just
a
minute-
and
the
second
is
that
families
should
be
given
the
choice
of
conducting
parent-teacher
conferences,
either
virtually
or
in
person,
I
will
tell
you
that
anecdotally,
the
the
feedback
from
our
principles
was
that
they
were
thrilled
with
the
virtual
conferences
and
the
participation
this
year,
and
parents
as
well
found
that
very
helpful
so
on
to
the
calendars
so
the
first,
the
the
top
priority
calendar
has
teachers
returning
to
buildings
on
the
19th
of
august,
the
first
class
they
have
class
for
students,
as
I
mentioned,
is
the
30th
of
august.
U
The
calendar
does
build
in
the
four
equity
professional
development
days,
which
are
two
hour
early
dismissals,
as
they
have
been
for
a
number
of
years.
There
are
three
parent-teacher
conference
days,
two
in
october
and
and
one
in
march
that
march
date,
as
is
the
case
this
year,
is
the
conditional
day
that
we
would
convert
to
a
school
day
if
weather
became
a
factor.
U
The
october
dates
are
split
again,
as
they
are
this
year.
With
one
day
all
students
are
off
and
the
other
day
elementary
and
middle
school
students
are
off
for
parent-teacher
conferences.
Also
in
that
calendar
is
a
three-day
thanksgiving
break
the
six
day,
easter
spring
break.
As
I
mentioned,
I
mentioned
the
two
inclement
weather
days.
The
school
year
would
end
for
students
on
the
14th
of
june
and
the
last
day
for
students
would
be
the
15th
of
june.
U
The
committee's
second
priority
incorporates
all
the
same
conference
break
days,
equity,
professional
development
days
and
inclement
weather
days
and
then
makes
these
changes.
Teachers
return
to
their
buildings
on
the
26th
of
august.
The
first
day
of
class
for
students
is
the
8th
of
september,
the
last
day,
the
21st
for
students
and
the
22nd
for
teachers.
U
You
all
will
recall
that
last
february
the
board
approved
a
motion
that
required
the
committee
to
bring
at
least
one
calendar
that
incorporates
edelfitter
as
a
professional
development
day,
and
so
the
committee
did
that
they
brought
you
two,
but
what
they
did
was
they
modified
each
of
the
two
calendars
that
I've
just
talked
to
you
about
by
adding
a
student
date
at
the
end
of
the
year
and
then
moving
the
last
day
for
teachers
back
a
day,
so
that
teachers
end
their
school
year
the
day
after
students
and
then
eliminating
one
teacher
work
day
prior
to
the
start
of
classes
for
students.
U
So
that
would
be
five.
I
believe
it's
five
teacher
work
days
instead
of
six.
In
that
scenario,
we
then
talked
about
whether
anyone
on
the
committee
wanted
to
make
either
of
these
calendars
a
priority
over
the
two
I've
just
described
to
you
and
no
one
advocated
for
doing
that.
So
that's
a
brief
synopsis
of
the
calendars
and
I
will
stop
sharing
my
screen
now
and
I
will
turn
it
over
to
miss
babb,
followed
by
miss
hummer
and
ms
lafond
for
some
comments.
B
Thank
you
good
evening,
president
cordell
vice
president
ellis,
dr
alato
members
of
the
board.
My
name
is
mara
babb.
I
am
the
craft
middle
school
coordinator
and
I
was
a
student
representative
and
committee
member,
along
with
beckett
hummer
on
this
year's
calendar
committee.
As
mr
mosher
has
previously
stated
previously
stated,
it
was
a
calendar.
It
was
a
committee's
main
priority
to
implement
a
week-long
spring
break
as
reflected
in
the
calendar
recommendations.
B
This
decision
is
most
beneficial
to
all
students
celebrating
the
holidays
and
getting
a
fresh
start
for
the
fourth
marking
period.
The
repercussions
of
this
decision
reflects
a
change
in
the
start
date
and
end
date
of
the
2021-2022
school
year.
The
priority
one
calendar
shows
that
the
start
date
will
be
on
august
30th
before
labor
day
and
the
end
date.
Taking
into
consideration
the
three
extra
snow
days
will
be
on
june
14th
for
students.
B
B
School
will
end
over
halfway
into
june
much
later
than
it
has
ended
in
previous
years
and
is
an
undesirable
outcome
for
students.
I
am
aware
that
this
board
has
preferred
the
school
commences
after
labor
day,
but
priority
one
is
much
more
viable
than
priority
two
for
students.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
F
Hello
board
good
evening
again,
so
I'm
here
to
advocate
just
on
our
reasoning
and
our
decision
behind
moving
the
two
future
conferences
days
back
and
keeping
them
full
days
versus
two-hour
dismissal.
So
we
moved
them
from
this
year.
They
were
october,
12
13
around
that
time,
and
now
we
move
them
back
to
21st
through
22nd.
F
We
had
a
big
discussion
on
this,
whether
to
move
into
november
to
october,
really
where
to
put
these
dates,
but
in
the
end
it
came
down
to
it's
unfair
for
all
students,
no
matter
what
their
grade
level
is.
So
the
elementary
middle
school
had
the
concern
that
the
that
those
teachers
wouldn't
know
their
kids
as
well
having
earlier
in
the
year
so
they're
giving
the
parent-teacher
conferences,
but
they
don't
really
know
the
kid
as
well
as
they
could,
so
they
don't
have
proper
feedback.
F
So
in
moving
it
back,
we
were
able
to
give
about
a
week
more
to
know
your
kid
right
before
testing
happens,
but
still
have
it
in
the
first
marking
period,
which
is
really
important
for
high
schoolers,
because
some
of
these
classes
that
they
are
taking
are
only
one
semester
and
that's
a
credit
course.
F
So,
if
you're
parenting,
your
conference
is
in
the
second
quarter,
you're
already
halfway
through
your
whole
class
and
it's
not
enough
time
to
really
catch
up
on
what
you're
falling
behind
on
what
you're
missing
on
and
to
really
get
proper
feedback
from
your
teachers.
So
that's
just
the
reasoning
behind
that
decision
and
effortlessly
speaks
we're
more
than
happy
to
hear
your
questions
and.
I
Concerns
hello
again
and
for
the
record,
my
name
is
mallory
lafone,
and
this
time
I'm
representing
the
calendar
committee
as
the
aacc
pta
rep.
As
a
parent
and
member
of
the
calendar
committee,
it
was
important
to
include
a
start
date
before
labor
day,
so
aacps
could
be
similar
to
surrounding
counties.
It
was
also
important
for
seniors,
especially
athletes
who
head
off
to
college
earlier
in
the
summer.
The
earlier
end
date
of
june
14th
gives
them
extra
time
to
prepare
to
leave
for
school
and
or
training.
I
It
was
also
a
priority
to
include
full-day
parent-teacher
conferences
later
in
october,
to
make
sure
all
families
have
the
opportunity
to
speak
with
instructors
about
their
students
performance
with
time
to
make
corrections
before
report
cards
go
out.
Having
conferences
later
in
the
quarter
gives
families
meaningful
data
with
assessments
and
great
at
work
to
give
a
well-rounded
evaluation
of
a
student's
performance
and
finally,
having
a
full
week
of
spring
break
is
also
a
priority,
because
it
gives
a
mental
health
break
for
students,
staff
and
families.
I
A
long
weekend
is
not
a
sufficient
for
travel
or
for
a
chance
to
relax
and
reduce
stress.
More
importantly,
for
quality,
teacher
retention
and
recruitment,
we
pay
less,
so
we
need
to
show
staff,
we
value
them
with
the
full
spring
break
surrounding
districts
that
pay
more
also
have
a
full
week
off,
and
I
like
beckett
said
after
we're
done
speaking.
I'm
welcome
questions.
C
Thank
you
very
much
greatly
appreciated.
C
Before
we
begin,
I
just
want
to
make
an
announcement
to
make
sure
it's
clear,
you'll
note
that
our
presentations
are
not
action
items
the
board
will
be
taking
a
potential
action
on
is
scheduled
to
on
january,
the
4th
at
their
very
first
board
meeting,
and
so
at
that
time.
That
would
be
on
the
agenda
as
an
action
item
at
the
discretion
of
course,
of
our
new
president.
C
T
Thank
you,
mr
mosher,
and
everyone
for
the
presentation
to
the
calendar
committee.
I
won't
be
here
for
the
vote,
so
I
am
not
going
to
ask
any
questions
I'll
be
front
of
my
colleagues.
Thank
you.
C
Yes,
I
appreciate
the
recommendation
from
the
committee
to
maintain
virtual
and
in-person
options
for
for
teachers
I
mean
for
parents,
because
I
think
that
did
increase.
I
know
as
a
parent
of
multiple
children.
I
was
never
able
to
make
all
the
conferences
when
I
had
to
go
between
schools,
but
virtually
I
would
be
able
to,
because
I
wouldn't
have
to
drive.
I
would
be
able
to
schedule
it
all,
and
I
know
that's
better.
C
I
also
one
of
the
points
that
was
raised
was
keeping
the
conference
days
a
full
day
instead
of
an
early
dismissal.
C
I
think
that
that's
really
important
as
well,
because
early
dismissal
doesn't
give
as
much
time
plus
many
of
our
parents
schedule
their
conferences
for
7
30
in
the
morning
or
8
o'clock.
You
know
before
the
day
and
to
give
the
maximum
flexibility
for
our
parents
schedules.
I
think
a
full
day
is
important,
so
I
appreciate
that.
I
also
I
I
think
we
all
agree
a
full
week
of
spring
break
would
be
great.
C
So,
as
mr
gillian
said,
I
won't
be
here
to
vote
on
this,
but
I
did
want
to
state
those
things
that
I
think
are
real
positives
about
this
calendar
as
we
move
forward,
and
I
think,
as
we've
said,
there's
some
good
things
that
are
gonna,
that
we
have
all
learned
and
and
realized
from
covid,
and
one
of
those
is
the
benefits
of
virtual
conferences
with
our
parents
and
the
increase
in
participation
that
can
bring.
So
I
I'm
glad
to
see
the
committee
is
recommending
that
as
well.
Thank
you.
J
Yes,
I'm
looking
at
the
first
of
all
before
I
get
ahead
of
myself,
fantastic
work.
A
lot
of
work
went
into
this
really
literally
like
what
we
have
come
up
with,
but
the
priority
2a
eid
I'll
filter,
we
can
only
the
start.
Date
is
later.
If
we
include
that
right,
but
we
can't
do
that
with
an
earlier
start
date.
No
priority.
J
V
U
J
C
Thank
you
and
first
I
I
want
to
thank
the
calendar
committee
for
your
hard
work.
I
clearly
put
a
lot
of
thought
in
consideration
and
I
appreciate
you
presenting
options.
I
have
a
few
questions
and
please
don't
anyone
take
any
of
my
questions
as
suggestions.
C
For
parent-teacher
conferences,
I
have
a
couple
of
questions.
One
is
you
know.
Currently
we
have
schedule
in
the
virtual
environment,
where
our
students
are
actively
engaged
in
full
day
of
classes,
monday,
tuesday,
thursday,
friday
and
wednesday.
C
They
have
reduced
in-person
learning
and
they
are
doing
work
and
assignments
more
on
their
own.
Would
that
be
a
possibility
for
is
that
possible
to
do
with
parent-teacher
conference
days?
Have
those
days
that
students
are
working
at
home.
U
U
So
if
you
take
a
six
hour
school
day
on
which
you
could
have
conferences-
and
you
do
a
two
hour-
early
dismissal,
even
with
the
extra
hour
that
teachers
stay
that's
three
hours,
so
you
need
two
days.
You
know
to
accomplish
those
two
october
days.
You
would
probably
need
three
early
dismissal
days
right
to
even
come
close
to
that
and
the
march
day
you
would
need
a
second
day.
So
that's
probably
a
little
more
than
you
asked
for,
but
but
we
did
not
talk
about
the
the
early
virtual
day
on
wednesday,
specifically.
C
So
I'm
asking
this
isn't
really
of
the
calendar
committee.
It's
asking
I'm
asking
right
now
what
we,
what
we
can
do
is
the
reason
we
can't
do
it
that
way
again,
none
of
my
questions
are
are
suggestions,
they're
questions.
So
is
there
anything
excuse
me?
Oh,
do.
L
I
C
C
U
So
I'll
I'll,
let
dr
alado
weigh
in
on
the
state
piece
of
it,
but
there
is
a
minimum
number
of
seat
hours
right.
In
addition
to
a
number
of
days,
you
have
to
have
a
number
of
hours.
So
if
you
have
too
many
two-hour
early
dismissals,
just
as
an
example
you're
going
to
run
into
trouble
with
with
the
hours,
I
don't
know
whether
the
state
has
weighed
in-
and
perhaps
dr
lotto
can
can
say
about
converting
that
time.
You
know
the
virtual
learning
time
and
how
what
counts
as
a
school
day.
P
Right,
thank
you,
mr
moser.
You're.
Absolutely
right.
The
state
is
considering
the
superintendents
have
asked
for
a
consideration
and
some
guidance
on
on
how
best,
to
put
it
the
what
a
virtual
day
would
equal
in
terms
of
in
in-person
day,
which
is,
I
think,
what
you're
asking.
I
think
what
you're
saying
is.
Could
we
just
say,
and
I'm
making
this
up
for
conversation's
sake,
miss
ellis.
P
Could
we
have
a
wednesday
that's
an
all-day
parent-teacher
conference
day,
but
not
be
a
day
off
for
students.
They
would
be
at
home.
Doing
an
asynchronous
day
of
learning,
I
think,
is
what
you
are
suggesting
and
we
would
we
don't
have
yet
a
ruling
on
that.
I
mean
that,
because
we've
not
been
in
that
situation,
the
superintendents
are
asking
that
similar
question
now,
just
for
planning
purposes
for
this
year.
P
Should
we
have
weather
events
where
we
would
need
to
officially
close
the
system,
but
students
could
still
be
at
home
in
either
a
synchronous
learning
environment
with
their
teacher
or
an
asynchronous
learning
environment,
and
would
that
count
as
a
school
day
right
and
and
that's
a
long-winded
answer
too?
We
don't
have
an
answer
to
that
question.
P
Next
question:
wasn't
it
it's?
It's
continuously
talked
about
with
the
superintendents,
and
so
we'll
continue
to
ask
the
state
for
some
guidance
on
that
because,
as
you
know,
in
the
current
circumstance
that
we're
in
across
the
state,
there
is
a
three
and
a
half
hour
mandate
of
synchronous
learning
per
day
on
an
average
throughout
the
week.
P
So
how
the
state
would
view
an
asynchronous
day
during
parent-teacher
conferences
or
during
the
snow
day
is
exactly
what
we're
asking
that,
and
it
could
be
extrapolated
to
your
point
regarding
parent-teacher
conferences
into
the
future.
C
P
So
so,
as
of
now,
the
answer
to
that
question
is
yes:
we
we
are
required
to
build
in
those
inclement
weather
days.
So
that's
we
have
to
show
a
minimum
of
three
in
our
calendar.
That's
by
ho.
That's
comarch,
correct,
mr
mosher.
I
believe
so
yes,
so
we
are
required.
So
when
our
calendar
is
turned
when,
when
a
board
of
education
finalizes
a
calendar,
we
of
course
send
it
up
to
msde
for
their
final
approval
and
we
have
to
have
a
minimum
of
three
days
designated
as
inclement
weather
days.
P
C
So
that,
basically,
that
that
code
was
written
prior
to
covid
and
when
we
were
able
to
offer
this
amazing
choice,
of
course
right:
okay,
yep
and
then
it
was
suggested
that
early
dismissal
days
take
away
an
opportunity
for
parents
who
meet,
who
need
to
schedule
early
conferences,
but
assuming
that
we
had
to
do
two
shorter
school
days
instead
of
one
day
off,
is
there
any
reason
we
couldn't
do
and
again
not
suggestions,
just
questions?
Is
there
any
reason
we
couldn't
do?
One
early
dismissal
and
one
late
arrival.
U
So
we
had
that
very
discussion
among
the
calendar
committee
and
several
years
ago
we
did
a
survey
of
parents
and
it's
been
a
number
of
years
now
about
the
two
hour
late
arrivals
and
there
was
the
parent
involvement
advisory
council
was
almost
unanimously
against
that,
but
from
a
more
practical
point
of
view,
a
two
hour
early
dismissal
would
get
you
three
hours
of
conferences
right,
because
teachers
stay
in
there
a
two
hour.
Late
arrival
gets
you
two
hours
of
conferences
right.
C
Oh
one
more
question
do
conference
days,
because
I
I
heard
that
the
conference
days
that
were
selected
for
october
from
the
calendar
committee
sounded
like
maybe
perhaps
a
bit
of
a
compromise
to
the
needs
of
elementary
and
secondary
students.
Is
there
any
reason
that
conference
days
cannot
be
on
different
days
for
elementary
and
for
secondary
schools?.
U
Well,
I
think
transportation
might
be
a
reason
there,
bus
transportation
right
because
you're,
not
trans,
so
the
days
so,
for
example,
october
22nd,
if
you're
looking
at
the
priority
one
calendar
you're
not
taking
any
students
to
school
right
on
that
day.
So
if
you,
if
you
took,
if
you
split
that,
let's
just
say
you
would,
on
the
day
that
you
had
high
school
conferences,
you're
still
making
elementary
and
middle
school
bus
runs
on
the
day
or
days
right
and
then
the
flip
side
is
is
true
as
well.
U
I
mean,
I
guess
the
short
answer
is.
I
don't
think
there
is
a
reason,
but
it
might
come
with
some
other
ramifications
that
we
need
to
explore.
D
U
D
Okay,
all
right,
a
good
suggestion
by
mazzella's
at
least
for
consideration.
My
only
question
is:
did
I
remember
last
time
in
particular
as
to
the
start
date
for
school
and
whether
it
would
be
before
labor
day
or
after
labor
day?
You
know
there
was
a
a
family
survey
that
was
pretty.
You
know
meaningful
to
a
lot
of
board
members
that
just
wanted
to
do
the
committee
that
he
brought
to
another.
O
Yes,
thank
you.
Firstly,
I
wanted
to
say
thank
you
to
the
calendar
committee
for
your
hard
work.
I
know
that
it's
a
puzzle
and
and
a
lot
of
work
to
put
this
together.
So
I
wanted
to
express
my
gratitude
I
wanted
to,
and
some
of
my
colleagues
already
asked
my
questions
for
me.
So
thank
you.
O
We
great
minds,
think
alike.
I
guess,
but
I
wanted
to
go
back
to
the
question
of
parent-teacher
conferences
and
their
import
on
during
particular
times
for
various
levels.
So,
if
I'm
hearing
it
correctly,
I'm
hearing
that
elementary
school
teachers
may
or
may
not
know
their
kids
as
well
by
that
time
in
october,
but
for
a
high
school
student
who's
doing
this
for
credit
and
it's
a
one
semester
class
it's
more
important
to
have
the
conference
earlier
is
that
is
that
an
accurate
summation
of
what
I
think
I
heard
I.
O
Okay,
so
knowing
that
and
also
coming
at
this
from
the
elementary
world,
just
personally
is
there
any
reason
why
the
elementary
or
part
of
the
elementary
conferences
couldn't
be
moved
later,
maybe
into
november,
where
they
were
for
what
I
assume
was
a
number
of
years.
Can
you
can
you
speak
to
that?
A
little
bit
like.
U
So
that
was
a
that
was
a
that
was
a
conversation
had
at
the
calendar
committee
meeting
and
it
was.
I
sent
the
board
an
email
with
an
idea
proffered
by
one
of
the
two
tac
representatives
on
the
committee,
which
was
to
do
that,
which
was
to
have
one
day
in
october
and
then
the
two
days
preceding
thanksgiving
break,
and
that
would
make
up
your
three
days
now.
U
The
committee
didn't
favor
that,
because
they
want
that
generally
wanted
conferences
earlier
and
and
as
ms
hummer
said,
to
make
an
impact
on
first
marking
period
grades,
but
but
that
conversation
involved
a
two-hour
early
dismissal
and
my
committee
members
can
tell
me
if
I'm,
if
I
mischaracterize
this,
it
involved
a
two-hour
early
dismissal
in
october
and
two
two-hour
early
dismissals
on
the
monday
and
tuesday
of
thanksgiving
week
in
november.
O
U
I
don't
have
numbers
in
front
of
me,
then
I
can
tell
you
from
the
principles
that
I've
spoken
to,
that
their
conferences
were
better
attended
at
all
levels
this
year,
with
the
virtual
conferences
than
they
have
ever
been.
O
Right
and
I
don't
dispute
that-
I
think
that
it
should
go
without
without
saying
that
it
should
be
a
choice
between
in-person
and
virtual.
We
have
the
technology
now,
it's
fabulous.
If
you
as
miss
hemmer,
said,
if
you
have
children
at
multiple
schools,
it
makes
life
so
much
easier.
I
I'm
not
even
sure
the
board
needs
to
to
vote
on
on
that
piece.
I
think
it
should
just
be
something
that
we
and
certainly
not
tonight.
I
just
think
that's
something
that
we
should
be.
O
We
should
be
offering
now
and
into
the
future
regardless.
I
just
I
just
wonder
about
that
a
little
bit,
because
you
know
if,
in
october
by
october,
I
think
I
assume
that
teachers
might
not
know
all
the
kids
but
might
have
a
sense
of
of
of
who
isn't
engaged,
who
really
needs
help,
and-
and
I
wonder
if
we
could
save
some
out
of
school
time
by
by
by
just
having
those
those
teachers
reach
out
to
that
handful
of
students
at
that
time.
O
Now
this
year
was
different
because
you
know
we
had
those
assessments
and
we
got
to
learn
about
the
results
of
those
assessments
which
I
found
very
extremely
helpful,
but
assuming
that
we're
back
to
normal
in
the
fall
god
willing.
I
just
wonder
a
little
bit
about
that
and
I'm
it's
not
it's
not
a
suggestion
and
it's
not
really
even
a
question.
It's
just
I'm
putting
that
out
into
the
into
the
universe,
and
then
I
I'm
going.
U
To
go
ahead,
please!
No!
I
was
just
going
to
say
that
so,
if
had,
we
left
the
conferences
where
they
were
this
year
for
next
year's
calendar,
they
would
have
been
the
11th
and
12th
so
essentially
you're
getting
them
10
days
later
right,
you're
getting
them.
We've
moved
them
from
the
beginning
of
one
week
to
the
end
of
the
next
week.
O
Yeah-
and
I
and
I
have
zero
issue
with
that,
I'm
going
to
respect
the
will
of
the
the
calendar
committee
on
that
piece
at
at
a
minimum.
I
think
later
is
better
than
earlier
from
where
I
said,
I'm
a
little
I'm
of
two
minds
about
how
we
structure
it.
I
would
love
to
get
those
days
back
for
some
other
for
equity
reasons.
O
O
O
I
want
to
put
out
into
the
universe
that,
in
order
to
achieve
that
equity
that
I
think
I'm
looking
for,
I
don't
think
that
includes
a
professional
day.
I
think,
if
we're
truly
going
to
be
equitable
and
that
no
one
is
lesser
than
others,
it
must
be
a
day
closed
for
students
and
staff,
because
all
means
all
I'm
going
to
probably
have
some
suggestions
later
in
january,
just
to
tighten
up
a
little
bit
of
some
of
the
language.
O
O
I've
always
found
it
odd
that
we
don't
have
that
true
mental
health
break
and
and
also
because
of
the
length
of
time
we've
been
out
in
brick
and
mortar
buildings,
assuming
that
that
that
metrics
are
good
and
I'm
going
to
hold
on
to
hope
that
they
will
be
the
sooner
we
can
get
our
students
back
into
brick
and
mortar
the
better,
and
so
I'm
also
a
pre-labor
day
person
and
unapologetically.
O
So
thank
you
so
much
for
all
of
your
hard
work
and-
and
it
doesn't
go
unnoticed
for
me
as
you
as
you
are
well
aware.
So
thank
you.
U
H
A
Mr
moser,
you
seem
to
be
able
to
do
it
all.
So.
Thank
you
very
much.
Despite
everything
that's
going
on,
you
all
have
not
presented
just
one
calendar
but
you've
presented
two.
Thank
you
mike.
I
don't
have
too
many
questions,
but
I
did
have
a
question
about.
You
said
that
that
you
added
a
a
date
of
learning
at
the
end
of
one
of
the
calendars,
and
I
didn't
quite
understand
why
you
extended
the
day
for
teachers
as
well
as
for
students.
U
U
But
if
you
don't
want
teachers
and
students
ending
their
year
on
the
same
day,
which
is
problematic
you,
then
you
have
to
move
teachers
to
the
next
day
right.
So
to
do
that,
then
teachers
are
over
their
contracted
number
of
days.
So
you
have
to
subtract
the
work
day
and
that's
where
the
work
day
that
that's
where
one
of
the
pd
days
from
august
gets
cut
off
to
compensate
for
that.
A
So
so
understood,
so
the
plan
is
to
make
it
a
professional
work
day
and
not
a
closed
day
in
may.
C
Mr
mosher,
if
I
just
may
as
a
point
of
information
for
the
board's
benefit
and
the
public's
when
we,
when
this
becomes
an
action
item
prior
to
that,
there
may
be
legal
questions
that
the
board
may
want
to
hear
of
information
more
relevant
to
some
of
the
questions
that
you
have
asked.
Missy
antoine
and
michelle
heim
alluded
to,
and
so
that
would
be.
C
H
Thank
you.
I
have.
I
have
no
questions,
mr
mosher,
just
would
you
please
extend
my
personal,
thank
you
for
the
hard
work
of
the
calendar
committee.
I
know
this
is
a
struggle
every
year
and
it's
been
that
way,
but
did
a
fine
job
and
they
should
be
proud
of
their
work.
So
thank
you.
C
I'll
just
say
thank
you
to
everyone
in
the
calendar
committee.
I
know
that's
a
lot
of
hard
work
and
heavy
lifting
and
undercover
even
more
so
because
there
is
so
much
uncertainty
that
we
still
have
yet
to
face.
So
thank
you
guys.
Each
and
every
single
one-
and
I
know
our
students
are
up-
are
taking
their
evening
in
particular
extra
shout
outs
to
them
for
being
willing
to
take
this
time.
I
have
no
questions.
C
The
presentation
was
very
thorough
and
thank
you
very
much,
mr
mosher,
for
that
what
I'll
do
at
this
time,
my
new
platform
does
make
it
a
little
more
challenging
for
me
to
see
hands
up
or
reactions
that
you
could
use
in
lu
the
little
clap
reaction,
for
example,
so
just
really
quickly.
If
there
are
any
further
questions
or
comments
from
board
members
raise
your
hand

Okay,
I'll

C
Seeing
no

we're
going

the
next
item
is
5.02.
The
20
20
and
2021
reopening
plan
update
dr
alato.
P
Yes,
madam
president,
thank
you
so
much
and
thank
you,
members
of
the
board,
as
I've
been
able
to
do
and
you've
given
me
a
chance.
Each
of
the
last
several
board
meetings
is
to
just
give
you
some
brief
updates
regarding
our
planning
for
reopening.
P
So
I'm
I
have
a
couple
of
points
that
I'm
going
to
make
updates
in
some
of
the
areas
that
you've
heard
before
and
then
I'm
going
to
share
a
screen
with
you
and
share
two
graphics
that
we
have
produced
that
will
go
live
on
our
website
this
week
that
I
want
to
share
with
the
board
regarding
rio,
our
road
map
to
reopening
and
putting
some
information
data
out
regarding
reopening
up
to
this
point
for
the
public.
So
let
me
begin
by
just
a
couple
of
updates
and
remarks
regarding
technology.
P
As
you
know,
that
has
been
a
heavy
lift
but
a
fabulous
lift
by
our
technology
division.
We
have
distributed
over
55
000
chromebooks,
thus
far
we
have
ordered
since
march
57
907
chromebooks
we've
received
almost
24
000
of
those
and
we're
waiting
for
just
about
34
000.
We
just
received
5
000
in
the
past
two
weeks
and
they're
getting
imaged
and
pushed
out
to
schools
as
needed,
so
we
continue
to
wait
for
the
remaining
deliveries
of
those
chromebooks,
likewise
chromebooks
for
students.
P
P
We've
received
3
000
of
those
so
we're
waiting
on
another
2898
of
those
laptops
and
they
are
coming
in
in
fits
and
starts,
but
they
are
continuing
to
arrive.
P
We
also
updated
some
desktops
throughout
a
number
of
our
schools.
P
P
Our
attendance
now
that
we
have
concluded
the
first
marking
period
we've
been
able
to
take
a
look
at
our
attendance
numbers
for
the
entire
marking
period.
Overall,
we
are
just
about
we're
at
93.9,
so
almost
94
attendance
across
the
school
system.
P
The
middle
school
attendance
is
at
94.2
percent
and
the
high
school
attendance
average
is
at
91
an
interesting
point.
To
note
an
update
is,
there
are
just
a
total
of
six
students
that
have
not
logged
on
to
a
device
for
a
class
throughout
the
entire
district.
During
this
first
marking
period,
just
six
three
were
elementary
school
students,
one
middle
school
student
and
one
high
school
student.
P
Now,
certainly,
if
you
as
the
attendance
numbers
share,
not
every
student
is
logging
in
every
day
or
we'd
have
a
hundred
percent
across
the
board,
but
to
have
just
six
students
that
have
not
logged
in
at
all
over
the
course
of
the
first
parking
period
is
to
be
commended,
and
I
know
the
schools
have
worked
really
hard
in
reaching
out
to
the
families
and
our
and
our
internet.
P
Access
team,
headed
by
miss
caroline
mccurdy,
with
a
number
of
social
workers
and
ppw's
substitutes,
have
worked
really
hard
to
connect
families
to
internet
access.
P
We
are
continuing
to
focus,
of
course,
on
the
online
instruction
and
making
that
the
best
possible
we
are
also
as
that's
it.
That's
included
in
our
online
instruction,
focusing
on
social
emotional
supports
and
interactions
for
our
students
continues
to
be
important,
as
well
as
focusing
on
staff
and
student
wellness,
finding
ways
to
connect
communities
to
things
like
online
yoga.
P
Lastly,
as
you
know,
because
of
the
current
circumstance
we're
in
with
spikes
in
case
rates
and
positivity
rates
around
the
county,
we
have
temporarily
suspended
all
of
our
small
group
programming.
P
But
what
has
continued
is
that
some
of
our
special
needs-
students
that
are
enrolled
in
non-public
schools
in
the
states
in
the
state.
Some
of
those
non-publics
have
closed
down
temporarily.
Likewise,
as
we
have
and
other
school
systems
around,
the
state,
some,
however,
have
continued
to
operate,
and
so
for
a
number
of
those
students.
We
are
continuing
to
provide
transportation
to
those
remaining
open.
P
Non-Publics,
that's
been
a
struggle
at
times
in
securing
drivers
and
assistance
to
be
available
to
take
students
to
those
non-publics
in
this
current
environment,
but
they
have
worked
with
us
and
have
done
a
fabulous
job,
so
we
continue
to
be
in
touch
with
and
in
contact
with
our
non-public
school
partners
and
closely
monitoring
their
operational
status,
whether
to
be
open
or
closed
and
communicating
with
families
and
making
adjustments
to
transportation
as
necessary.
P
So
with
that
mr
mosher
is
going
to
share
his
screen,
I
wanted,
as
I
said
from
the
outset,
I
wanted
to
share
some
graphics
that
you'll
be
able
to
see,
and
so,
as
you
know,
that
we
have
used
this
theme
about
a
road
map
to
reopening
it
was
the
focus
and
theme
of
our
recovery,
rigor
and
readiness
reopening
plan
that
was
submitted
to
maryland
state
department
of
education
and
was
approved.
P
So
we
intend,
at
the
end
of
each
marching
period,
to
do
an
update
in
some
of
the
key
areas
that
were
part
of
our
opening
reopening
plan
and,
as
you
can
see
here,
the
graphic
itself
mirrors
the
graphics
of
our
reopening
plan.
But,
more
importantly,
you
see
some
of
the
data
that
I
just
shared
with
you,
whether
it's
technology
attendance
you
saw
also
the
homework,
help
and
tutoring.
P
We
also
highlighted
this
time
not
only
those
three
areas
but
in
particular
the
readiness
area,
and
so
this
second
graphic
that
mr
mosher
is
scrolling
through
focuses
on
one
of
those
three
components
that
are
important
to
us
in
readiness,
as
we
continue
to
plan
for
the
reopening
of
schools.
Of
course,
our
meals
program
is
highlighted.
P
The
ppe
that
has
been
purchased
and
distributed
to
schools
accessible
for
our
staffs
is
highlighted
a
professional
development
to
make
sure
that
our
staff
is
ready
not
only
for
continued
in
the
virtual
environment,
but
getting
ready
for
the
hot
delivery
of
instruction
in
the
hybrid
environment,
and
you
can
see
in
a
little
bit
further
down
the
number,
the
phenomenal
number
of
hours
and
the
number
of
courses
that
our
professional
development
office
has
put
together
and
that
our
incredible
teachers
and
staff
have
taken
advantage
of
because
they
really
do
want
to
do
the
absolute
very
best
for
our
students.
P
They
really
are
fabulous
and
so
we'll
update
this
information
at
the
end
of
each
marketing
period,
as
we
are
sharing
information
and
data
with
the
public.
Certainly
this
board
and
the
public
overall,
as
it
relates
directly
to
our
reopening
plan,
which
again,
we
entitled
recovery,
rigor
and
readiness,
and
so
with
that.
I'm,
madam
president,
I'm
glad
to
take
questions
if
there
are
any
from
the
board,
and
I
will
begin
in
with
your
approval,
mrs
corkdale
I'll
begin
in
roll
call
order.
T
With
mr
gilliland,
thank
you,
dr
alato
and
mr
mosher.
Thank
you
for
the
wonderful
scrolling.
I
I
just
have
one
question:
this
might
be
a
curveball,
dr
erlatto,
so
not
to
put
you
on
a
spot
with
statistics.
You
mentioned
six
students.
Out
of
you,
know:
84
000,
roughly
84
000
students
who
have
not
connected
this
this
school
year.
Do
you
know
in
a
normal?
What
I'll
call
normal
school
year
in
in
prior
years,
perhaps
is
a
better
way
of
saying
it.
T
P
Yeah,
so
we
so
we
average,
you
know
we
hover
around
on
any
given
day
a
total
across
all
grade
levels.
92
93
attendance,
sometimes
a
little
higher,
sometimes
a
little
lower,
it's
typically
higher
at
the
elementary
levels,
as
you
would
expect,
and
sometimes
a
little
lower
high
school
levels.
So
so
on
any
given
day
we
have.
P
You
know
we
have
a
fair
number
of
students
that
that
don't
come
to
school
on
that
given
day
so
we
have,
we
have
seen
an
uptick,
I
shouldn't
say
nothing,
we've
seen
an
increase
in
attendance
overall,
and
we
think
some
of
that
is
just
due
to
access
that
it's
not
having
to
get
on
a
bus,
it's
not
having
to
get
a
ride
to
school.
It's
not
having
to
walk.
Luckily,
we've
had
really
good
weather.
P
Overall
in
this
fall,
we
typically
see
some
some
attendance
drop
in
the
winter
season
when
it
really
gets
cold
or
we've
got
snow
or
ice
on
the
ground.
We'll
see
our
attendance
begin
to
drop.
P
We
are
encouraged
by
overall
by
the
attendance
that
students
are
logging
on
now,
they're,
not
all
logging
on,
as
you
saw
from
those
attendance
figures
every
day,
because
we
still
you
know
we're
not
a
hundred
percent
every
day,
but
to
have
just
six
overall
that
have
just
not
not
connected
come
at
all
is
a
is
a
pretty
phenomenal
figure.
T
I
I
would
just
send
you
know,
above
all
by
saying
thank
you
for
the
presentation
but
kudos
to
your
team
and,
and
specifically
you
know,
the
ppws
and
the
school-based
staff
who
have
really
made
that
number
as
impressive
as
it
is.
I
I
I
just
think.
That's
that's
stellar.
P
You
would
agree,
and-
and
thank
you
for
your
thank
you
to
the
staff
because
it
has
just
been,
and
it
was
that
way
in
the
term
I
used
in
march,
when
we
first
went
to
closure
and
it
stands
true.
Today
is
all
the
terms
I
use
are
all
hands
on
deck
and
there
are
so
many
different
offices
that
have
lent
assistance
in
in
reaching
out
to
families
and
looking
to
make
sure
that
families
are
connected
to
the
best
extent
possible.
Of
course,
connectivity
is
not
100
every
day.
P
That's
the
unfortunate
part
of
technology,
but
it
really
has
been
an
all
hands
on
deck
of
phenomenal
work
and,
quite
frankly,
just
our
the
the
fact
that
our
so
much
hard
work
on
behalf
of
that
our
parents
have
to
to
work
so
hard
and
set
up
the
makeshift
classrooms.
If
you
will
in
in
homes
and
environments
that
students
are
logging
in,
and
parents
are
overseeing
that
and
so
they're
true
partners
in
this,
in
getting
students
logged
in
and
connected
to
their
classmates.
T
P
C
Unmute,
yes,
just
one
question
for
you:
this
is
you
know
I
I
appreciate
all
the
ongoing
information
of
how
prepared
we
are
and
how
things
are
moving
along.
I
know
because
of
the
code
numbers
we
had
to
stop
our
small
groups
that
were
going
very
well.
You
know
in
our
special
centers
and
the
cat
centers
has
the
has
the
health
officer
when
our
numbers
get
back
to
a
to
within
the
health
metric
ranges.
Are
we
going
to
be
able
to
start
those
back
up
again
once.
P
P
He
has
also
supported
us
in.
We
are
continuing
to
do
some
one-on-one
assessment
of
students,
so
we've
not
closed
that
down
completely.
So
some
of
our
school
psychologists
are
able
to
conduct
some
one-on-one
assessments
with
students
if
their
parents
were
able
to
bring
them
in
to
an
assessment
location,
a
school
or
office.
So
we
are.
We
have
gotten
approval
to
continue
to
do
that,
but
he
has
yes.
Ma'am
approved,
is
a
and
and
encourages
us
to
get
those
small
groups
started
back
up.
P
They'll
be
the
first
groups
that
that
will
be
the
first
thing
that
we
start
back
up,
as
the
numbers
start
to
drop
back
down.
C
J
Oh,
I
just
want
to
say
we
did
one
quarter.
You
know
three
more
to
go.
I'm
counting
the
days
so
graduation
feels
good.
The
numbers.
Look
great,
I'm
glad
we're
really
adjusting
as
we
go.
I
just
do
have
just
one
clarification
question
of
the
six
students
you
mentioned
that
haven't
connected
at
all.
You
said
they
were
three
elementary
one
middle
and
one
high
school
student,
correct.
P
J
Fantastic
and
with
those
students
that
we
do
know
of,
I
guess
what
are
the
next
steps
with
them?
I
guess
we
do
know
who
the
students
are.
Do
we
know
necessarily
why
they're
not
showing
up
have
ppw.
P
I
I
don't,
I
don't
know
specifically
the
so.
There
have
been
a
number
of
people
involved
as
you've
heard
throughout
this
time
in
tracking
students
down
getting
them
connected,
getting
them
online.
So
I
I
would
assume
that
that
yeah
there
are
that
we
know.
Certainly
I
don't
have
the
information,
but
the
staff
at
the
school
knows
as
well
as
the
local
ppw.
P
You
know
the
ppw
that
serves
that
school
and
is
working
with
that
family
to
find
out
what
it
is
or
why
it
is
they
haven't
logged
on.
It
could
be
that
they're
just
a
complete
no-show.
It
could
be
a
student
that
just
is
on
our
books
and
is
just
not
attending.
You
know
it
clearly
has
not
attended
at
all
this
year
and
may
not
even
be
living
in
the
state
anymore.
I
just
don't
know.
J
Okay,
well,
thank
you
for
that
and
then
about
specific
numbers.
I
know
the
teachers
have
to
finalize
grades
by
tomorrow.
Right,
that's
what
I've
been
told.
So
do
you
know
when
we'll
have
the
honor
roll
numbers
for
this
quarter
and
if
those
can
be
made
available.
P
J
J
In
this
virtual
environment,
but
with
that,
I
know
that
this
first
quarter
was
probably
filled
with
a
lot
of
ups
and
downs,
not
just
for
students
but
for
teachers
and
staff.
Too,
and
probably
you
know,
some
people
got
to
some
pretty
low
moments,
but
you
know
here
we
are,
and
you
know
only
three
quarters
left.
So
I
have
a
poem
here.
J
My
grandmother
gave
it
to
me
and
was
on
my
wall
for
a
number
of
years
until
I
took
it
off,
because
I
think
I
put
up
a
orioles
baseball
poster,
but
I
think
it'd
be
fitting
just
to
read
it.
So
it
goes
succeed
in
believing
that
you
will
not
fail
with
diligence
and
determination.
Your
ship
will
sail
when
the
weather
is
stormy
and
the
waters
are
rough
in
the
moment
of
peril.
The
strong
get
tough.
J
Whenever
life
presses
you
down
a
bit
stand
up
and
shout
I
will
not
quit
and
that's
by
michael
nguyen.
I
just
think
that
if
we
just
keep
telling
ourselves
don't
quit
keep
on
pushing,
we
can
make
it.
You
know
we
can
really
make
it
through
any
curveball
that
life
throws
at
us.
C
Only
six
students
I
mean,
obviously
we
don't
want
one
student
untouched,
but
that's
that's
good
news
in
a
school
system
this
size
and
it's
a
testament
to
teamwork
from
you,
dr
arlotto,
all
the
way
through
every
school
building.
So
I
greatly
appreciate
the
hard
work
everyone
is
doing
in
this
crazy
unusual
time.
C
I
know
the
committees
have
representation
from
various
stakeholders,
including
the
teachers
union
and
a
few
parents.
But
do
you
have
plans
to
seek,
I
guess
additional
guidance
and
or
I
guess
input
is
a
better
word
from
more
teachers
at
various
grade
levels,
sort
of
for
their
classroom
expertise,
not
not
as
a
representative
of
teachers
or
teachers
union,
but
as
as
as
experts
in
developing
these
plans
and
staying
with
parents
and
students.
C
Okay
and
shoot
there
was
another.
I
had
one
more
question.
C
And
can
you
talk
about
the
work
the
transportation
department
is
doing
at
this
point
for
getting
these
buses
going?
We,
you
know,
obviously
they're
not
doing
the
same
work
that
they
would
be
doing
if
the
buses
were
running
right
now.
So
I
don't
know,
can
you
just
give
us
any
any
insight
on
to
what
kind
of
work
and
progress
has
been
achieved
in
transportation.
C
D
Thank
you
doctor
I'll,
just
be
brief
and
say
I
know
everybody's
doing
their
best
under
bad
circumstances,
and
we
all
have
you
know
the
best
of
intentions.
I
just
share
the
views
of
the
those
members
of
the
public
that
commented
that
the
sooner
we
get
back
to
a
place
where
families
can
choose.
You
know
the
better
off.
I
think
families
will
be,
and
with
that
I
have
no
questions.
Thank
you.
P
Thank
you,
mr
grandma.
Miss
scholheim.
O
Yes,
first,
thank
you
for
your
update.
As
always,
I'm
grateful
for
it
and
the
fabulous
graphics
that
scrolled
up
the
screen.
Can
you
remind
me
please,
where
those
will
be
posted?
Is
it
the
would
it
be
aacps.org
forward?
Slash
reopening
plan?
Is
that
the
website
where
it's
going
to
live
or
is
there?
I
just
want
to
know
where
to
go
because.
P
O
Okay,
am
I
are
you
am
I
with?
Are
you
hearing
me
now.
O
Okay,
great
so
the
graphics,
the
wonderful
graphics
that
we
all
saw
that
were
scrolling.
Where,
where
will
those
live
exactly
on
the
website,
are
websites
big?
Is
it
the
aacps.org
forward,
slash
reopening
plan
or
is
it
the
fall
2020
website
just
so
I
know
where
to
go
because
my
eyes
couldn't
keep
up,
and
of
course
I
want
to.
I
want
to
read
it
more
thoroughly.
P
Of
course,
we
well
one
we'll
we'll
send
those
to
the
board,
we'll
have
them
posted
on
your
site,
so
you'll
have
those
separately,
but
my
understanding
is,
it
will
be
both
on
the
forward.
Slash
fall
2020,
as
well
as
the
forward
slash
reopening.
O
Fantastic,
I
wanted
to
ask
about
attendance.
These
numbers
seem
wonderful,
especially
the
the
six
students
other
members
have
touched
on
that
I
share
their
sentiments.
Our
staff
is
obviously
incredible
in
engaging
everyone,
and
I'm
just
grateful
for
your
you
and
your
team's
work
on
on
that
always
with
the
breakdown
of
attendance,
the
93.9
percent
overall,
and
then
the
various
figures
for
the
elementary
middle
and
high
school.
How?
O
How
would
those
match
up
if
we
were
in
person
in
a
brick
and
mortar
is
91
about
what
we
would
see
for
high
school
is
95.4
about
what
we
would
see
for
elementary
are
they
is.
It
are
those
very
comparable
to
normal
times
and
quotes.
O
Fantastic,
I
just
I
didn't
know
what
to
compare
it
to,
and
so
so
knowing
that
is
helpful,
I
want
to
ask
about
tutoring.
O
I've
had
parents
and
students
alike
both
raving
about
our
tutoring
offerings,
and
I
and
I
it
was
my
understanding
at
least
that
the
the
funding
for
that
was
disappearing
at
the
end
of
this
calendar
year.
If
I'm
wrong,
please
correct
me,
but
if
I'm
right,
how
are
we
going
to
fill
that
void
after
the
first
of
the
year?.
P
So
so
the
funding
is
going
to
disappear,
but
in
terms
of
where
we're
getting
the
funding
now,
but
we
intend
to
continue
that
through
the
end
of
the
year,
so
we're
digging
into
the
seat
cushions
if
you
will
to
ensure
that
we
can
continue
that
tutoring.
P
We
are
also-
and
mrs
ellis
mentioned
this
in
her
brief
report
about
from
the
budget
committee
in
a
comment
she
made
that
there
there
are
some.
P
The
rest
wants
to
be
assured
that
the
state
of
maryland's
not
giving
any
money
back,
and
so,
if
we're
able
to
access
any
additional
funds,
we
will
utilize
it
to
support
that
that
program
in
tutoring,
but
we
hope
to
continue
the
our
plan
is
to
continue
the
tutoring
through
the
end
of
the
year,
and
we
use
some
of
our
title
four
funding
to
do
that.
Also.
P
And
and
if
we
can
take
money
from
some
other
budgets
to
make
that
happen,
if
there
are
monies
that
are
not
spent
as
we
move
into
the
year,
and
we
can
move
it
into
that
category
or
that
not
that
category,
but
into
that
program,
to
keep
it
going
because
we
are
finding
some
success
with
it.
The
t
the
students
you
see
by
the
numbers
are
accessing
it.
P
I
likewise
met
with
with
some
students
and-
and
mr
smith
was
part
of
that
meeting
a
week
ago
and
and
a
number
of
the
students
raved
about
access
to
the
tutorings.
We
plan
to
continue.
O
Yeah
I've
I've
heard
the
same,
and
and
and
so
I'm
thrilled
to
hear
that.
That's
that
the
plans
are
to
continue
that
I
have
questions
about
the
reopening
in
terms
of
covid
testing.
The
more
I
think
about
this
gigantic.
O
You
know
problem
that
we're
in
the
more
I
think
about
covid
tests
as
as
part
of
the
solution,
obviously
alongside
some
sort
of
vaccine
when,
if
and
when
it
becomes
available,
and
hopefully
compliance
with
our
county
and
our
state
executive
orders
to
wear
masks
because
they
do
work
and
they
protect
not
just
those
around
us
but
our
ourselves.
O
And
so
I
wondered
if
there's
been
any
talk
with
dr
kaliana
ramen
about
frequent
and
ongoing
and
consistent
testing
of
of
teachers
and
staff
and
and
students
as
a
way
to
get
everyone
back
or
to
get
at
least
portions
of
all
three
levels
back,
if
not
everyone
back
to
pull
out
or
to
be
able
to
quarantine
as
quickly
as
possible.
Those
that
are
infected
and
to
allow
us
to
have
an
in-person
live
instruction
as
much
as
possible.
Has
there
been
any
conversations
about
that.
P
Oh
I
I
was
I'm
sorry.
I
was
just
just
answering
the
question,
so
there
are
no
specifics
because
that's
purely
in
the
realm
of
the
department
of
health,
what
we've
talked
about
is
is
possibly
providing
access,
so
they
don't
want
to
do
testing
on
the
inside
of
buildings.
So
if
there's
testing
that's
going
to
be
done,
it
would
need
to
be
on
the
outside
of
buildings.
P
I
would
imagine
setting
up
some
kind
of
tent
and
and
allowing
for
some
kind
of
testing,
and
we
have
said
whatever
you
are
capable
of
putting
together
and
staffing,
because
that's
not
something
we
can
do,
obviously
that
we
would
absolutely
support
it.
I
don't
believe
they
have
the
staff
to
set
up
in
the
beginning,
80
testing
sites,
for
example
at
our
80
elementary
schools.
I
don't
believe
they
have
the
staff
for
that.
P
So
I
think
there
may
be
some
thinking
down
the
road
about
having
some
mobile
I'll
use,
the
term
they
have
and
I'll
use
the
term
just
for
explanation
and
conversation
say
mobile
testing
units
again.
This
is
these
are
my
terms,
not
the
department
of
health,
but
that
gives
you
a
visual
of
possibly
having
some
department
of
health
teams
that
would
travel
to
a
number
of
different
schools
on
a
given
day
and
do
some
testing
of
both
students
and
staff
in
those
buildings.
P
That's
sort
of
the
kind
of
thing
we've
talked
about,
but
we
would
absolutely
support
just
like
we
support
doing
flu
vaccinations
and
flu
mist
at
our
schools.
We
would
absolutely
support
coga
testing
at
our
schools.
No
question
about
it.
O
Wonderful,
I
I
I
want
to,
and
I
know
you
get
it
and
I
I'm
sure
most
of
the
boy
gets
it,
but
I
I
just
want
to
put
it
out
there
on
the
record
that
this
to
me
in
my
mind,
and
no
I'm
not
a
doctor.
O
No
I'm
not
an
infectious
disease
doctor
where
I
don't
even
play
one
on
tv,
but
testing
has
to
be
part
of
the
solution
going
forward
until
everyone
is
vaccinated
until
we
have
a
vaccine
that
that
works
and
is
effective
and
is
safe
and
all
the
all
the
rest
of
it
yadda
yadda
we
have
testing
ongoing.
Consistent
testing
has
to
be
part
of
it.
I'm
I
I'm
delighted
that
we're
as
open
as
we
possibly
can
be
to
the
department
of
health
coming
in
and
doing
this.
O
I
just
think
it's
imperative
so
so
important.
I
know,
that's
not
something
we
can
mandate
or
dictate.
I
just.
I
hope
they
see
the
the
logic
and
the
wisdom
of
this.
I
hope
we
have.
O
They
have
the
funding
to
to
pull
it
off,
because
what
I
know
hindsight's
2020,
but
if
we
knew
then
what
we
know
now
would
we
have
closed
things
in
the
same
order
that
we
did
and
would
our
priorities
be
different,
and
I
hope
the
answer
is
is
is
yes
and
you
know
our
our
children
have
to
have
to
be
the
priority
and
it
is
the
key
to
to
fully
reopening
an
economy.
O
In
my
view,
I
had
another
question
I'll
get
off
of
my
soapbox
for
a
second,
I
have
another
question
I
wanted
to
ask
before
I,
and
I
know
that
you're
working
on
a
plan
that
encompasses
all
three
levels
to
some
degree
for
the
second
semester.
Obviously
I'm
well
in
support
of
that,
and
I
assume
we're
going
to
be
asking
people
once
again
to
make
a
decision
hopefully
commit
to
whether
or
not
they
would
be
needing
transportation
when
that
time
comes
you're,
not
in
yes,
okay
for
all
those
out
there
he's
nodding
us.
O
So
that's
a
good.
That's
good
right.
P
O
Perfect-
and
I
just
I
think
that
that's
important-
I
love
the
opt-in
model,
as
I've
stated
before.
I
think
that's
a
a
great
way
to
do
that,
not
just
in
this
pandemic,
but
going
forward
so
that
we
can
use
taxpayer
money
as
efficiently
as
possible.
I
just
think
that
it
it
warranted
it
beared,
repeating.
O
I
think
that
that's
all
I
have
I'm
you
know.
I
appreciate
your
leadership
ongoing
throughout
this
crisis
and
obviously
your
staff-
and
I
know
we
haven't
we're
still
in
it,
so
we
can't
reflect
on
it
and
recognize
all
the
hard
work
and
the
endless
hours
of
staff
yet,
but
I
just
I
just
want
to
express
my
gratitude
to
to
your
to
your
team
and
to
the
food
and
nutrition
services
folks
as
well
in
particular,
and
and
none
of
it
goes
unnoticed.
O
I
I
see
the
I
just
see
the
hard
work
every
day
in
my
in
my
daughter's
classes
and
it's
a
reflection
also
not
just
of
the
great
team
in
the
school
where
she
attends,
but
also
of
your
entire
senior
staff,
who
have
led
the
charge
and
put
everything
together,
and
so
I'm
continue
to
be
grateful.
Thank
you.
A
A
That
is
awesome,
and
I
I
wanna
I
I
just
don't
know
what
to
say,
especially
in
district
one,
where
many
parts
of
district
one
are
considered
food
deserts.
I
thank
you
all
so
much
for
holding
the
line
there
and
ensuring
nutrition
for
our
students
and
even
their
families.
Thank
you
and
and
going
down
to
just
a
single
digit
in
attendance.
A
That's
incredible
as
well!
Thank
you
all
for
your
your
efforts
there
thank
you
for
the
continuous
efforts
and
and
not
giving
up
on
our
students,
especially
to
ensure
that
they
understand
how
important
even
in
crisis
education
is.
So
thank
you
for
that.
My
only
question
would
be
back
over
to
the
technical
side.
A
A
Are
we
making
efforts
to
reach
out
to
some
of
the
service
providers
to
help
with
more
outreach
in
terms
of
wireless
services
like
verizon
att,
who
offer
digital
gap,
closing
programs
to
schools,
and
many
of
those
programs
are
free
of
charge
of
charge
from
what
I
understand
so?
Are
we
engaging
with
them
at
all
and
which
would
definitely
help
with
some
of
the
cost
of
what
we're
putting
out
here.
P
Yes,
ma'am
we're
we're
engaging
with
them
every
day.
Caroline
mccurdy
and
her
team,
along
with
the
21st
century
foundation,
are
doing
yeoman's
work
in
not
just
the
outreach
to
the
in
identifying
and
reaching
out
to
the
family.
The
households
in
need
of
have
connectivity
love
with
our
local
providers.
P
Broad
stripe,
certainly
verizon,
has
been
wonderful,
but
hands
down.
The
comcast
team
has
just
gone
above
and
beyond
to
work
with
our
families
in
providing
connectivity.
P
It
is,
as
you
say,
it
is
much
more
cost
effective
to
wire
a
household
than
it
is
to
provide
the
myfi
hotspot
because
we
pay
the
monthly
bill
on
that
wi-fi
hotspot
and
the
comcast
internet
essentials
program
is
9.99
a
month
and
so
for
a
number
of
these
families
that
we've
connected
we
or
the
21st
century
foundation,
are
paying
that
monthly
bill
and
for
the
families
that
we're
distributing
the
myfi
hotspot
we
or
the
21st
century
foundation
are
paying
that
bill.
We
cannot
afford
to
do
that
into
perpetuity
and.
P
Those
going
back
to
your
point,
which
is
a
great
one,
mrs
antoine
working
with
our
our
internet
connectivity
partners.
They
have
been
wonderful
and
they
are
working
to
get
people
connected
as
best
they
can
in
those
areas
that
don't
have
direct
connectivity.
P
They
really
have
done
a
phenomenal
job
and
we'll
continue
to
work
with
them,
but
it
would
be
best
if
we
could
get
all
those
households
connected.
So
we
there
is
a
push
across
the
state
and
in
anne
arundel
county
as
well
to
ensure
connectivity
for
every
household.
That's
not
going
to
happen
overnight.
That's
that
the
work
that
we're
doing
and
a
wi-fi,
hot
or
a
wi-fi
hotspot
is
a
short-term
solution.
A
Government
you,
dr
alana,
thank
you
for
that.
That's
good
to
know,
then,
with
grades
and
and
final
grades
coming
out,
I
think
mr
smith
shared
tomorrow.
A
There
will
be
some
some
upset,
perhaps
because
of
the
new
environment.
The
virtual
learning
environment
has
not
been
as
as
successful
of
an
environment
as
the
traditional
has
been
for
some
of
our
students.
A
Are
we
looking
two
ways
not
and
I'm
not
one
that
bases
anything
when
it
comes
to
education
on
grades,
but
are
we
looking
for
ways
to
support
students
who
would
normally
be
performing
a
lot
better
at
this
time
of
year,
but
because
of
technical,
difficult
difficulties?
The
anxiety
that
was
pointed
out
earlier
tonight,
a
number
of
reasons
they
were
unable
to
perform
as
well
as
they
could
have
are
there
are?
A
Are
we
looking
at
ways
to
help
ensure
that
that
doesn't
continue
where
they
will
get
more
enrichment
when
it
comes
to
education,
as
well
as
opportunities
to
improve,
improve
individual,
as
we
remain
virtual.
P
Yes,
ma'am
just
like
we
would
in
brick
and
mortar
if
we
were
in
in
brick
and
mortar
schools,
the
same
review
of
grades,
the
same
analysis
we'll
do
an
analysis
at
this
level.
At
my
level
on
grades,
each
of
the
schools
will
do
an
analysis.
Each
of
the
grades
or
content
areas
within
the
schools
will
do
a
great
analysis.
P
Counselors
will
look
carefully
at
grades
as
they
always
do
and
look
to
provide
supports
for
those
students
there.
There
could
be,
as
you
said,
any
number
of
reasons
why
students
might
not
be
successful.
It
could
be
because
they
just
it
could
be
the
virtual
environment
itself.
It
could
be
connectivity
issues
or
it
could
be
purposeful.
It
could
be
I'm
just
turning
off
the
machine
and
I'm
not
going
to
engage.
P
P
P
A
D
A
Decreasing,
are
we
looking
at
an
alternative
plan
for
students
who
simply
cannot
they
may
be
homeless
or
false,
foster
care
they
may
be
unable
to
engage
virtually?
A
Are
we
looking
into
something
that
may
introduce
an
alternative,
not
a
full-on
hybrid
alternative
for
schools,
but
something
that
can
accommodate
every
student's
circumstance
as
we
move
forward
in
a
virtual
environment.
P
As
you
see
by
the
numbers,
we've
had
great
success
in
getting
students
connected
or
students
that
are
on
on
alternative
attendance
plans,
our
foster
students
and
our
foster
youth,
as
you
mentioned
and
homeless,
students
are,
are
connected
and
they're
engaging
and
so.
H
P
They're
they're
for
the
most
part
doing
well
they've
got
lots
of
supports,
but
I'm
certain
that
there
are
circumstances
that
are
difficult
for
families
that
we
might
not
be
able
to
to
completely
solve
understood.
P
Yes,
ma'am.
Thank
you,
mr
live.
O
H
Any
question
great.
I
agree
with
mr
granted
that
you
know
I
will
wholeheartedly
welcome
the
opportunity
to
offer
our
parents
and
students
the
choice
to
again
return
to
our
classrooms.
I
know
you
also
have
that
same
desire
and
and
and
determination.
H
So
I'm
looking
forward
to
that
in
the
new
year
and
I
could
not
agree
more
with
ms
shawheim,
our
government
at
basically
all
levels
really
miss
the
mark
and
what
has
been
deemed
essential.
H
Home
improvement,
casinos
and
it
goes
on
and
on
that
is
not
essential,
and
we
have
really
missed
the
mark
on
this,
and
it's
just.
I
shake
my
head
every
day
of
how
we've
proceeded
through
this
without
deeming
public
education
as
as
perhaps
right,
along
with
all
those
others,
the
most
essential
thing
we
do
for
the
for
the
health,
safety
and
well-being
of
our
communities,
our
states
and
our
country,
so
that
just
makes
my
head
spin.
H
My
question
has
to
do
with
data
and
data.
That's
shared
with
us
with
you
from
the
health
department
and
you'll
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong,
but
I
I'm
pretty
certain
that
we
have
no
data
or
evidence
to
date.
H
As
I
understand
it,
all
instances
of
that
which
have
led
to
you
know
obviously
have
been
due
to
community
spread,
not
anne
arundel,
county
public
schools,
buildings,
property
functions,
activity
spread.
Is
that
correct?
That's
correct.
P
That
is,
you
are,
you
are
absolutely
correct.
There's
been
no
certainly
no
data
share
with
us
that
there's
been
any
kind
of
outbreak,
as
defined
by
the
state
and
the
county
or
significant
spread
in
in
schools
among
our
staff
or
among
our
student
athletes.
I
believe
in
in
most
cases
I
won't
say
all
because
I
don't
have
the
background.
Mr
live
on
the
contact
tracing
of
every
single
incident
we've
had
and
our
incidents
are
climbing
right
now
we're
having
more
positive
reports
of
employees
now
than
we
ever
have
been.
P
But
to
your
point,
we
I'm
not
I'm
not
familiar
with
any
that
have
been
associated
within
the
work
environment
within
the
school.
It's
always
been
from
the
community,
as
you
say,
brought
into
the
school.
P
Yes,
sir,
again.
H
Thanks
thanks
for
being
out
there
and
taking
the
brunt
of
this
very
difficult
time
on
behalf
of
all
of
us,
and
thank
you
yeah,
I
really
look
forward
to
the
opportunity
for
our
children
to
be
welcomed
back
into
our
school
buildings.
Thank
you,
dr
aladdin.
C
Hi,
thank
you
so
very
much
always
encouraged
by
the
progress
of
our
numbers
as
it
relates
to
our
chromebooks
and
our
mifi's,
and
the
21st
century
foundation
is
just
doing
awesome.
Work
with
that.
C
I
just
it
crossed
my
mind
that
when
miss
antwine
was
asking
some
of
those
questions
that
something
maybe
that
wasn't
brought
up
that
may
be
relevant
to
it-
is
that
the
partnership
for
youth,
family
and
children
that
dr
brown
runs
is
also
working
with.
I
believe
director,
jordan
pam
jordan
with
the
county
to
make
sure
that,
as
they
are
working
in
the
at
the
community
level
from
the
county,
that
some
of
their
access
to
the
myfi's
and
the
similar
are
being
coordinated
to
maximize
our
family's
access
to
this
stuff.
Correct.
P
Absolutely
and
that's
happening
so.
Thank
you,
mrs
corkell.
It's
happening
on
sort
of
several
different
fronts.
You
talk
about
dr
pam
brown
and
her
work
with
the
county.
She
is
just
phenomenal
she's
out,
as
you
well
know,
out
and
about
seven
days
a
week,
identifying
gaps
in
services
looking
to
fill
those
gaps
and
she's
been
a
wonderful
partner
to
us.
So
so
certainly
she
and
her
team
have
been
wonderful.
P
Likewise,
as
you
know,
the
county
executive
and
I
put
together
what
we
call
a
family
cooperative,
and
so
it's
a
it's.
P
A
small
group
of
his
team
headed,
was
headed
by
his
chief
of
staff,
I'm
not
sure
who's
heading
it
now,
along
with
two
of
our
folks
here
and
miss
laurie
jones
and
and
and
dr
shawn
ashworth,
and
they
meet
regularly
to
talk
about
the
needs
within
the
county
and
in
particular
our
families
and
then
look
for
resources
and
ways
to
fill
gaps
if
there
are,
if
they
are
there
and
then.
P
She
and
mrs
jackson
meet
regularly
with
community
groups
and
community
members
to
seek
their
input
and
to
see
where
there
are
gaps
in
services
where
we
can
help
assist
those
families,
and
so
they
might
report
to
us,
and
you
talk
about
chromebooks,
where
they
know
of
a
family.
That
needs
a
is
in
need
of
a
chromebook
or
need
of
internet
access
or
need
of
meals.
And
then
they,
let
us
know,
and
then
we
can
work
with
them
and
work
with
those
families.
P
So
just
several
different
instances
that
are
ongoing
and
have
been
for
months
where
we're
working
a
hand
in
glove
with
the
county
services
and
county
government
to
to
assist
our
families
and
our
students.
C
Yeah
it
it's
amazing.
The
collaborative
effort
from
sewing
teams
to
you
know
calls
for
volunteers,
and
everybody
drops
drops
what
they're
doing
and
lends
a
hand.
It's
absolutely
amazing.
I
know
that
skip
all
the
ceo
of
of
our
library
system,
his
him
and
his
team
have
also
stepped
up
too,
and
I
think
I'd
be
remiss
not
bringing
them
into
the
fold
I
just
wanted
to
when
michelle
heim
had
brought
up
testing.
I
wanted
just
for
my
own
purposes
and
probably
would
help
public
as
well
is.
C
My
understanding
was
when
dr
kaliana
rahman
visited
us
on
october.
The
5th
one
of
the
pieces
of
his
presentation,
and
then
was
also
subsequently
addressed,
was
the
testing
of
schools
and,
I
believe,
discuss
the
availability
of
testing
and
how
the
state
is
coordinating
management
of
that
with
the
health
department
and
the
his
advisement
on
testing
at
that
time.
Has
that
changed
since
we've
last
heard
from
that
that
you're,
aware
of
because
I
have
not
heard
of
any
changes
to
his
advisement,
whether
it's
for
private
or
or
for
public
schools
in
that
regard,
correct.
P
I
I
I
if
I
understand
the
question,
I
believe
you
are
correct.
He
he
he
remains
supportive
of
testing
and
he
would
like
to
coordinate
some
testing
with
us
at
the
schoolhouse
level.
C
Yeah,
so
that
this
is
the
same
supply
issues,
so
to
speak,
that
we
would
run
into
as
we
do
with
our
chromebooks
and
stuff
that
there
there's
going
to
have
to
be
a
assessment
to
that
effect.
Right.
P
Correct
yeah
that
will
have
to
be
that
they
will
have
to
advise
us,
I
mean
they'll.
They
really
have
to
not
advise.
They
have
to
tell
us
both
in
terms
of
their
staff
availability,
to
do
it
to
do
advice.
They
have
to
tell
us
both
in
terms
of
their
staff
availability,
to
do
it
to
do
tests
and
the
availability
of
the
testing
kits.
P
C
So
anybody
wanting
more
information
on
that
that
would
be
more
of
a
county
conversation
correct
until
such
time
they
come
to
us
with
the
information.
P
C
Well,
it
sounds
like
you
know
when
we
get
the
next
update
from
them
on
that.
That
would
be
provided,
sounds
good.
The.
C
As
it
relates
to
the
mill
services
around
the
holiday,
could
you
go
over?
I
cannot
remember
how
we
handle
the
holidays.
Usually,
when
we're
off
the
the
the
services
are
off
correct.
P
C
I
I
gotta
tell
you
I'm
asking
a
somewhat
rhetorical
question,
for
I
knew
the
answer
to
it,
because
I
just
wanted
to
take
a
minute
to
remind
everybody
that
our
food
pantries,
we
have
empty
pallets
down
at
st
james
down
at
lothian.
One
of
our
you
know
areas
of
greatest
need
in
the
county
and
so
many
other
food
pantries,
and
I
would
just
encourage
folks.
C
This
is
an
easy,
simple
family
way
of
engaging
and
giving
back
to
the
community,
because
we're
going
to
have
more
need,
I
believe,
than
we
have
ever
seen
in
decades,
and
so
I
hope
everybody
is
just
reminded
of
that.
I
know
many
of
our
board
members
actively
work
in
these
programs,
myself
included
in
a
variety
of
ways
and
any
way
we
can
support
that
and
our
families
through
these
really
hard
weeks
ahead
and
months
ahead.
C
Please
I
I
hope
everybody
will
join
us
and
thank
you
so
much
dr
alato
and
please
share
my
extensions
of
gratitude
to
our
food
service
team.
I
they
just
they're
beyond
rock
stars,
they're.
P
C
And
their
spirits
and
their
level
of
hope-
and
you
know
a
lot
of
people,
look
into
the
eyes
of
those
who
are
needy
or
need,
or
are
at
a
vulnerable
moment
and
see
despair,
but
it's
it's
folks
like
them
and
all
of
our
front
lines
that
see
the
hope
that
they
can
provide
to
carry
them
through
and
also
share
that
hope
to
carry
others
through
and
that
that
is
that
is
truly.
C
The
communication
challenge
is
making
sure
that
we
always
walk
away
from
someone
leaving
hope
and
so,
and
I
know
every
single
one
of
our
team
members
do
that
each
and
every
day.
Thank
you
very
much.
No
questions
further.
C
J
I
just
had
a
quick
question.
I
know
carroll
county
in
baltimore
county
they're,
now
having
a
copic
dashboard
on
the
website
where
they
keep
track
of
covered
cases
within
their
school
system.
Are
we
going
to
implement
that
here
in
anne
arundel
county.
P
So
that's
a
good
question.
We
are
talking
about
building
a
dashboard.
My
concern,
mr
smith,
right
now
with
that
is
the
state.
The
maryland
department
of
health
has
produced
a
covid
dashboard
that
is
directly
associated
with
leas
and
schools,
so,
as
reports
of
positive
cases
in
outbreaks
are
being
reported
at
schools,
that
information
goes
of
course
goes
from
a
local
health
department
to
the
state
health
department
and
they
have
their
school
code
case
dashboard,
I'm
not
really
sure
exactly
what
they're
calling
it,
but
that
went
live
last
week.
P
Excuse
me
on
the
department
of
health
website
and
so
they're
updating
that
I
think
once
a
week
every
wednesday
and
so
my
concern
one
of
the
things
that
we're
looking
at
is,
if
we
produce
a
dashboard,
my
concern
would
be
having
data
that
that
might
not
be
in
line
with
what
the
state
is
producing
and
I
don't
want
anybody
to
be
confused.
So
we're
looking
at
a
dashboard
and
possibly
producing
something
like
that.
But
the
state
now
has
a
dashboard
that
went
live
last
week.
P
That's
reporting
outbreak
cases
at
schools
by
school
name
in
in
each
of
the
jurisdictions.
J
Okay
and
it
breaks
it
down
like
a
teacher
versus
student
other
faculty,
no.
J
Okay,
well,
it's
good
to
know.
I
must
have
missed
that
memo,
but
to
me
it
just
seems,
like
you
know,
maybe
we
just
transfer
their
data
to
our
website.
P
I'm
always
again,
I'm
always
a
little
concerned
about
you
know
with
about
putting
out
data
that
might
not
be
directly
in
sync
with
somebody
else's
data.
They
have
the
most
up-to-date
data
and
they
are
the
state
department
of
health,
so
we
would
rely
on
them.
But
we
are
it's
a
great
question.
We
are.
We
are
actively
talking
about
what
a
dashboard
would
look
like
for
us
and
and
our
ability
to
build
one,
or
do
we
just
connect
directly
to
the
state
dashboard.
P
Yeah
those
are
ongoing
conversations
with
the
superintendents
I've
looked
at
hartford
county
has
won
carroll
county.
I've
looked
at
theirs
and
talked
to
dr
lockhart,
who
was
their
superintendent,
dr
williams,
up
in
baltimore
county.
Those
are
absolutely
those
are
ongoing
conversations
great
fantastic!
Thank
you.
Yes,
sir.
O
Yes,
I
had
a
couple
little
follow-ups
regarding
wi-fi
connectivity,
it's
my
understanding
that
there's
at
least
one
part
of
our
county
where
it
was
a
logistical
impossibility
or
probability
of
of
getting
that
community
wired
ever.
O
Is
that
still
the
case
or
has
the
county
acknowledge
that
specific
neighborhood
and
is
working
towards
a
solution
for
that?
I
it
was
my
understanding
that
it
was.
It
was
very
specific,
and
so,
when
we
talk
about
everyone
getting
connectivity,
this
is
piggybacking
on
what
ms
antoine
was
asking
earlier.
O
P
So
you
had
two
questions
there.
One
is
there:
are
there
some
neighborhoods
in
the
county
that
are
physically
cannot
or
are
not
wired.
Now
the
answer
is
yes,
there
are
two
specific
that
we
are
aware
of
and
the
second
part
your
second
question
was:
is
the
county
doing
anything
about
that?
In
short,
I'm
using
I'm
paraphrasing
and
the
question
is
I
don't
know
what
the
county
is
doing.
P
P
We
have
also
attempted
wi-fi
hot
spots
in
those
two
communities,
but
they're
so
far
removed
from
any
kind
of
cell
tower
that
the
wi-fi
hotspot
is
doesn't
work
because
it
has
to
connect
to
a
cell
service.
That's
connected
to
a
cell
tower.
J
P
There
are
the
students
that
live
in
those
two
communities,
we
transport
to
southern
middle
school
every
day.
O
Right
and
so
going
forward,
especially
when
we're
talking
about
the
potential
of
you
know
out
outside
the
box,
thinking
in
terms
of
conferences
or
how
we
would
handle
snow
days
in
a
different
way
down
the
road.
I
you
know,
we'd
have
to
consider
those
those
specific
communities
and
and
their
needs.
I
know
we
will.
I
just
you
know
as
an
equity
thing.
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
we
keep
those
folks
in
in
mind
with
our
decision
making.
I'm
I'm
sure
you,
you
are.
P
P
O
Absolutely
I'm
I'm
thinking
about
this
in
terms
of
going
forward
with
you
know
in
previous
conversations
tonight
about
calendar
and
various
ways
to
handle
different
days
and
snowy
days,
and
and
what
have
you
and
and
would
that
still
occur
on
those
days
and
with
and
and
just
keeping
that
in
mind,
it
wasn't
a
it
was
just
thinking
about
those
specific
specific
groups
and
and
a
movement
for
it.
No,
I
know
that
you've
been
it's
been
incredible.
O
What
you
all
have
done
with
those
communities
and
solving
that
problem,
I'm
just
thinking
ford
as
a
follow-up
to
ms
antoine's
conversations
with
you
about
on
this
call
with
regard
to
wi-fi
connectivity
and
the
county.
O
Instructional
time
and
flex
time-
and
you
know
going
forward
for
the
second
semester,
of
course
not
for
this
coming
marking
period,
it's
all
part
of
the
same
semester,
but
for
the
next
semester,
are
you
and
your
team
still
considering
and
weighing
any
sort
of
changes
to
those
to
those
items
and
and
and
scheduling
of
class
time
in
general,
especially
at
the
secondary
level?.
O
Good
good
I've
heard
about
it,
you
know
more
than
once
now
a
time
or
two
and
and
and
and
have
some
ideas
you
know
and
some
thoughts
around
that
I
I
I
think
what
we've
come
up
with
for
this
semester
is
fabulous,
and
I
just
look
forward
to
using
that
as
a
basin
and
improving
it
where
we
can
to
to
meet
those
to
meet
those
needs,
and
that's
all
I
had
thank
you.
A
Yes,
please
I
just
I
wanted
to.
I
failed
to
ask
about
the
screen
time.
What
the
current
screen
time
is.
Is
it
dip?
Is
it
different
at
each
of
the
the
secondary
and
elementary
levels,
or
is
it?
Is
it
the
same
and
then,
finally,
is
that
screen
time
state
mandated
or
is
this
something
that
we
locally
could
moderate
and.
D
P
We're
not
measuring
screen
time,
it's
measured
via
the
state
on
between
synchronous
learning
and
asynchronous
learning.
So
is
the
student
able
to
synchronously
interact
with
their
teacher
versus
doing
work
on
away
from
their
teacher
in
an
asynchronous
format?
So
it's
not
we're
not
so
I'm
not
able
to
answer
specifically
how
much
screen
time
a
student
or
teacher
is
accessing
it's
synchronous
for
ace
versus
asynchronous.
P
So
to
answer
the
second
part
of
your
question,
the
state
has
mandated
a
minimum
of
three
and
a
half
hours
of
synchronous
learning
per
day
averaged
across
the
week,
so
so
it
could
be.
We
can
count
the
instructional
time
that
a
student
say
at
the
high
school
level
is
in
their
physics
class,
as
well
as
the
flex
time
that
the
student
goes
back
and
synchronously
works
with
their
teacher
on
some
additional
help.
A
P
A
Okay,
that
that's
all
I
need
the
answers
to.
Thank
you
very
much.
C
I
think
that
does
it
for
this
item.
Thank

All
right
good
evening,
president
corcodell
of
vice
president
ellis
dr
a
lot
of
members
of
the
board.
First,
if
I
may
take
a
moment
during
this
american
education
week,
I
just
want
to
acknowledge
and
thank
all
of
the
dedicated
educators
who
work
with
our
students
from
those
in
the
birth
to
five
program
on
up
to
our
12th
graders.
I
hope
we'll
all
take
a
moment
to
show
our
appreciation
to
the
custodians,
the
teaching
assistants,
the
related
service
providers,
teachers
and
everyone
who
plays
a
role
in
our
children's
education.
V
The
members
of
tac
did
vote
to
ratify
this
contract,
but
I
must
make
it
known
that
the
that
it
wasn't
a
slam
dunk
vote
I.
Nor
do.
We
really
believe
that
this
contract
is
what
we
were
working
towards
and
making
really
good
progress
on
prior
to
covet
19.
But,
of
course,
the
world
had
different
plans
for
us.
V
So
it
is
my
hope
that
we
will
continue
to
support
our
veteran
teachers
to
help
repair
some
of
those
gaps
as
we
move
forward
in
our
work
together,
and
I
hope
that
we
can
all
commit
to
fix
what
was
previously
agreed.
That
is
needed
to
be
addressed
as
we
continue
to
work
forward.
So
I
appreciate
the
work
and
acknowledge
ms
rawls
in
her
efforts
leading
the
aacps
team.
Thank
you.

A
A
Did
thank
you
all
again
for
for
the
work
that
continuously
is
happening,
especially
in
terms
of
our
contracts
and
supporting
the
economy
in
these
contracts.
The
question
I
had
concerns.
L
D
W
Alec
checkman,
the
chief
operating
officer:
this
is
an
open-ended
requirements
contract.
We
are
piggybacking
and
partnering
with
the
county
government
to
receive
the
best
prices.
But
again
it's
a
it's.
A
piecework
contract
that
we
can
selectively
choose.
W
Whichever
elements
are
required
as
they
as
they
apply
to
either
painting
lines
and
in
on
tennis,
courts
or
painting
lines
on
basketball,
courts
or
painting
lines
on
parking,
lots,
etc.
So
we
do
assessments
of
those
and
then
we
repair
and
repaint
those
as
necessary,
but.
D
W
Not
in
response
to
a
specific
incident,
we
do
this
each
and
every
year
and
you'll
notice
that
it
it
is
for
a
one
essentially
a
one
year
base
with
three
one
year:
renewal
options.
So
we'll
have
the
opportunity
to
use
this
for
the
next
three
years
in
partnership
with
the
county
government.
C
Thank
you
seeing
no
further
questions
of
the
board,
miss
health,
please
all
roll.
