C
All
right
good
afternoon,
everyone.
D
C
Good
afternoon
I
just
want
to
announce
it
is
6
p.m.
We
like
to
start
on
time.
We
do
have
some
students
that
are
running
late,
so
we're
gonna,
give
them
about
five
minutes,
make
sure
you
have
an
agenda
if
you
haven't
gotten
one
yet
we'll
pass
those
out
to
you
and
then
we'll
start
around
6
05
p.m.
So,
if
that's
good
for
everybody.
D
C
A
A
E
F
E
Okay,
now
we're
gonna
have
a
roll
call
to
see
who's
out
here.
E
Oh,
everybody
can
just
say
their
name
in
their
school
that
they're
from
I'm
Ashlyn
Papillon
I'm
from
beauma
United
United.
C
Right
so
I'm
stating
I'm
facing
you
guys,
but
it's
kind
of
awkward,
because
I
have
people
behind
me,
but
I
hope
you
guys
can
hear
me.
We
went
to
a
conference
when
was
this
in
February
right
this
first
weekend
of
February,
and
so
we
were
able
to
dialogue
with
the
with
other
cities
that
have
Youth
councils,
and
some
of
the
things
they
talked
about
was
having
like
a
listening
session
for
the
Youth
and
one
of
those
things
that
came
from.
It
was
just
developing
a
document
like
this
and
for
the
general
public.
C
This
is
a
a
legislative
agenda
for
Youth,
and
so
these
are
topics
that
are
important
to
the
youth
categories,
like
Empower,
youth,
Public,
Safety,
Parks
and
Recreation
development,
and
so
their
goal
is
to
identify
categories
within
this
document
that
we
can
ultimately
present
to
our
city
of
Beaumont
Council,
maybe
our
County
offices.
So
they
understand
the
importance,
or
at
least
the
priority
for
youth
within
these
particular
subject.
C
Matters
I
drafted
up
this
document,
along
with
Miss
Stephanie
she's,
been
helping
with
this
document,
and
we
sent
this
over
to
the
youth
Council,
and
so
they
have
kind
of
looked
through
it
a
little
bit,
and
so
this
presentation
is
just
kind
of
them
giving
their
perspective,
and
so
we'll
still
be
working
on
this.
This
is
a
ongoing
document,
but
essentially
the
the
idea
is
that
we
would
have
a
legislative
agenda
like
most
cities.
When
you
go
to
the
capitol
or
school
districts,
you
have
some
type
of
representation.
You
have
bigger
groups.
C
This
idea
is
that
next
year,
around
this
time,
the
youth
could
take
a
group
with
a
document
like
this
and
present
it
to
legislators.
Even
you,
you
know
at
the
local
level
is
more
important
because
you're
developing
Parks
you're
developing
things
in
your
community
and
having
the
youth
input,
and
so
that's
the
purpose
of
this
document.
So
that's
what
just
giving
you
guys
the
back
story
on
the
presentation
that
you'll
be
hearing
today
and
then
we'll
get
more
feedback
while
we're
having
this
discussion,
so
you
can
start.
M
B
Evening,
everybody
so
as
we
voted
on
last
meeting,
I
compiled
a
list
of
everything
that
we
have
gone
over
so
far
and
goals
that
we've
set
and
put
it
together
into
I
think
is
a
somewhat
slightly
somewhat
well
edited
slideshow
of
it
I
told
miles
earlier:
I'm,
not
the
best
wizard
with
Google
Slides,
but
so
this
is
a
accurate
summation
of
everything
that
we've
prioritized.
We
want
done
in
the
city
for
us
to
send
to
the
city
council,
so
they
can
have
the
youth
input
that
the
organization
was
chartered
to
provide.
B
So
if
we
go
to
the
next
slide,
please
all
right
so
first
in
the
area
of
Public
Safety,
so
the
councils
like
we
have
all
voted
in
favor
of
recommending
the
following
bullet
pointed
actions
to
increase
Public
Safety.
B
On
the
bird
scooters,
we
decided
that
mandatory
ID
for
their
use
and
more
strenuous
enforcement
of
existing
regulations
is
called
for,
given
the
level
of
traffic
violations
and
safety
hazards
caused
by
the
bird
scooters
at
this.
At
this
point
that
it's
only
prudent
to
have
the
police
department
more
strictly
enforce
the
way
that
the
rules
are
now
and
to
additionally
mandate,
a
valid
government
provided
ID
for
everyone
that
uses
them
to
ensure
that
they
are
over
the
age
of
18,
as
is
called
by
for
the
rules
of
bird
scooters.
B
We
then
decided
that
it
would
be
prudent
to
increase
the
budget
for
the
Beaumont
Police
Department
after
we
heard
the
presentation
several
weeks
ago
from
the
representative
from
the
BPD
to
combat
the
rates
of
violent
crime
in
Beaumont,
and
then
last
week
we
heard
about
the
severe
proliferation
of
fentanyl.
You
know
it's
a
fairly
new
drug,
but
we've
heard
about
the
danger
that
it
poses
specifically
to
youth.
B
So
we
voted
in
support
of
initiating
city-sponsored
initiatives
to
reduce
the
proliferation
of
fentanyl,
specifically
among
youth,
as
this
poses
a
singular
danger
to
us,
and
then
the
city
working
to
alleviate
homelessness.
Specifically
among
youth,
we
heard
from
the
Southeast
Texas
Homeless
Coalition
representative,
about
how
dangerous
that
is,
so
we
thought
it
was
good
to
include
this
on
the
agenda.
Does
anybody
have
any
questions?
B
J
I
know
we
like
I
know:
we
talked
about
police
and
they're
like
shortages.
So
could
you
add,
like
what
did
we
say
so.
B
The
first
meeting
we
had
in
January
the
January
group
I
was
part
of
that
presented
on
the
status
of
police
in
Beaumont
right.
So
the
ending
conclusion
of
that
presentation
was
that
an
increased
budget
for
the
police
department
and
greater
City
and
local
cooperation
was
needed
in
the
area
of
crime.
B
Yes,
so
police
presentations
at
the
schools
that's
more
of
a
two-pronged
approach,
but
it's
definitely
viable
because
I
mean
that
we
have
to
cooperate
with
both
the
city
and
the
school
district
to
do
that,
but
that's
a
very,
very
good
idea.
Thank
you
for
that.
I'll.
Add
that
any
other
questions.
B
So
just
like
show
of
hands
who
knows
where
they're
going
to
college
right
now,
so
how
many
of
you
know
how
much
you
have
to
pay
for
it
so
and
of
y'all?
Are
we
of
the
opinion
that
that's
too
much
vastly
too
much
correct?
B
I
can
tell
you
from
personal
experience,
I
had
a
friend
of
mine
that
applied
to
the
University
of
Tokyo
in
the
University
of
Tokyo
for
four
years
cost
seven
thousand
dollars
for
all
four
years.
B
So,
given
that
the
United
States
is
is
by
far
the
world's
leader
in
student
debt
and
and
like
overall
cost
of
attending
college,
yeah
I
think
it's
a
definite
positive.
If
the
city
could
help
the
youth
in
Beaumont
meet
opportunities
to
help
pay
for
college,
as
it
is
becoming
prohibitively
expensive
any
questions
on
that.
B
Okay
and
then
we
talked
about
tax
tax
incentives
for
small
local
businesses
that
employ
teenagers.
I
know
that
many
of
us
work
like
we.
We
have
jobs
and
that
it
would
be
better
if
more
youth
oriented
jobs
were
provided
by
small
businesses
and
those
were
made
to
be
sustainable
by
the
city,
providing
a
favorable
tax
environment
for
them
any
questions.
B
And
then
so
we
decided
that
City
departments
and
agencies
offering
internships
for
students
in
Beaumont.
We
decided
that
would
be
a
good
idea.
B
B
So
if
anybody
has
anything
they'd
like
to
add
and
then
so
diversification
of
the
economy
away
from
Reliance
on
petrochemicals,
so
it's
not
really
a
secret
that
the
way
the
wind
is
blowing
on
the
planet
is
that
petrochemicals
are
on
their
way
out
within
the
next
50
years,
and
per
our
life
expectancy
will
be
here
longer
than
50
years.
So
therefore,
it
makes
tangible
sense
for
us
to
inherit
a
job
market
that
in
in
Beaumont
that
is
reliant
on
petrochemicals
or
related
manufacturing
athletic
areas.
B
B
So
we
thought
that
would
be
beneficial.
Any
questions
next
slide,
please:
okay,
education.
So
we
voted
in
favor
of
these
two
ideas,
so
further
cooperation
with
Lamar
and
other
partner
institutions
to
increase
the
accessibility
of
higher
education
and
retention
of
local
youth.
So
this
is
kind
of
related
to
the
student
debt
point
I
made
earlier.
B
It
is
beneficial
to
the
future
of
Beaumont
for
us
to
a
be
able
to
go
to
college
and
B
for
us
to
do
it
here
right,
so
how
many
of
y'all
are
going
to
college
in
Beaumont
that
you
know
like
like
at
Lamar
or
like
lit
or
something
three
four.
So
there
are
17
of
us,
so
four
of
17
of
us
will
be
here
next
year.
B
B
B
November
was
the
joint
meeting
I
think
it
was
yes
I'm,
pretty
sure
it
was
November
that
was
extraordinarily
productive
and
more
more
of
those,
and
cooperation
of
that
sort
would
be
highly
beneficial
next
slide
any
questions
if
there's
a
picture
there
at
one
point
anything,
anybody
would
like
to
add
suggestions.
B
That
we
all
received
right
with
a
list
of
priorities
of
ours
right
that
PowerPoint
will
become
this
right.
We
will
edit
this
slightly
to
accommodate
the
goals
outlined
there
right.
So,
if
there's
anything
that
you
guys
would
like
to
see,
the
city
council
on
behalf
of
us
speak
now
forever
hold
your
peace.
We
value
any
null
input.
B
C
I
had
this
I
want
the
representatives
from
BISD
and
to
come
up,
introduce
yourself
so
at
least
the
public
knows
that
we
had
individuals
from
different
schools
here,
I
see
principals
in
the
back,
so
that's
exciting
to
have
here.
So
if
you
come
up
share
a
couple
words
and
introduce
yourself
sorry
to
put
you
on
the
spot,.
N
Hey
good
evening,
my
name
is
Melanie
Ferris
I'm,
the
principal
at
Beaumont,
Early,
College,
High,
School
well,
I
walked
in
and
I
turned
to
miss
Phillips
I
was
like
wait.
Where
are
the
adults
like
I
thought?
I
thought
this
was
so
I'm
impressed.
You
guys
are
running
through
this
and
engaging
in
this
in
this
activity,
and
so
that's
something
you
should
all
be
very
proud
of.
O
P
Some
some
of
you
may
or
may
not
know
in
my
free
time,
I
volunteer
as
a
school
board
trustee
in
Nederland
ISD.
This
is
my
13
wrapping
up
the
year
13
as
a
school
board,
trustee
in
Nederland
ISD,
so
I
once
a
month
sit
on
that
side
of
the
table
down
there
and
also
sit
on
the
tasby
board
of
directors
for
the
Texas
Association
of
school
boards
representing
the
33
school
districts
in
region
five.
So
it's
representing
you
not
only
in
Beaumont
ISD
at
the
state
level
as
well,
so
keep
up
the
good
work
so.
Q
Hey
guys,
I'm
Stacy,
Lewis,
Jr,
I'm
BISD
trustee
I
also
serve
as
your
board
secretary
I'm
amazed
and
proud
of
all
you
guys,
especially
you
guys,
representing
Beaumont
and
see
y'all.
Look
great
continue
to
do
your
things.
You're
doing
and
look
forward
to
hearing
from
you
guys
in
the
next
board
meeting.
B
All
right,
thank
you
for
that.
We're
going
to
move
to
agenda
item
number
one
to
discuss
Beaumont
beautification
project,
so
we
discussed
that
the
meeting
before
last
having
a
beautification
day,
we
thought
it
would
consist
of
a
trash
pickup,
at
least
any
other
ideas
in
that
before
we
get
started
on
a
more
concrete
plan.
What
do
y'all
think.
E
We
were
discussing
about
doing
it
during
spring
break
so
because
that's
when
everybody's,
mostly
free,
we
could
start
off
with
the
trash
pickup.
Then
maybe
the
next
day
you
can
have
paint
painting
around
Beaumont.
E
C
I'll
speak
on
that
a
little
bit
so
just
to
give
you
guys
a
little
backdrop:
cities
go
to
Austin.
It's
called
Golden
Triangle
days
at
the
Capitol,
East
city
or
group
has
their
day
to
go
to
the
Capitol
and
we've
been
discussing
different
legislative
pieces.
That
we
would
say,
is
priority
for
the
City
of
Beaumont
and
other
groups,
but
a
discussion
around
mental
health.
C
Obviously
you
guys
talked
about
homelessness
and
other
things
that
affect
the
youth,
but
I
did
want
to
open
up
that
dialogue
to
understand
what
are
those
challenges
from
a
mental
health
standpoint,
whether
it's
you
not
necessarily
you
but
I,
would
say
in
your
school
with
the
among
your
peer
group,
kind
of
bringing
those
I
wouldn't
say
issues,
but
ideas
are
barriers
or
challenges.
C
K
Okay,
sorry
to
the
principles
in
the
back,
but
honestly
I
feel
like
a
lot
of
mental
health
challenges,
start
off
at
school.
Like
all
the
pressure
and
like
all
the
how
do
I
say
this
yeah,
like
all
the
work
that
gets
stacked
on
top
of
us
and
then
sometimes
we
don't
have
stuff
like
or
time
for
our
outside
lives.
So
it
gets
kind
of
stressful.
If
that
makes
sense
like
we're,
we're
stuck
doing
a
lot
of
work
instead
of
being
able
to
go
out.
L
I
L
Coming
as
a
first
generation
Hispanic
family
member
to
attend
college
I
have
been
parallel
pressure,
anxiety,
especially
like,
due
to
also
taking
college
classes,
High
School
classes
and
always
maintaining
like
perfect
scores,
and
although
that
schools
always
want
to
push
that
over
here
for
you
and
that
they're
there
for
you
but
like
it's,
they
don't
push
hard
enough
and
like.
L
In
my
opinion,
there
is
a
lot
of
friends
that
I
know
that
do
suffer
from
a
lot
of
mental
illnesses,
and
schools
are
sometimes
a
safe
place,
but
not
always
because
they
don't
feel
that
they
can
talk
to
teachers
or
or
have
like
somewhere
to
go
at
school
and
I
did
do
a
little
presentation.
L
I
forgot
the
organization
that
that
does
it,
but
what
they
do
is
it's
a
program
where
all
the
teachers
take
and
it's
like
over
a
whole
year
course,
and
that's
how
they
become
more
aware
of
like
more
aware
of
student
feelings,
yeah
science,
science
and
I'll,
try
to
research
more
about
it
and
how
we
could
try
to
get
those
started
at
some
schools,
because
it
does
start
from
middle
school
to
high
school
and
I
feel.
Like
that
will
benefit
many
students
at
each
School.
E
Okay,
so,
like
Jonathan
said
it
does,
like
all
start
in
middle
school,
so
I
don't
know
if
you
know,
but
at
Peach
MacArthur.
Whenever
we
took
a
tour
there
last
year,
they
have
this
room.
So
basically
I
think
that
mental
health
is
the
biggest
one
for
our
age
group
is
depression.
So
I
think
that
in
our
schools
we
could
all
like
Peach
members
that
they
have
a
room
and
they
can
just
go
in
there
and
they
can
take
a
break
from
work.
E
They
have
like
bean
bag
chairs,
they
have
like
little
books,
they
have
things.
It's
just
like
a
comfort
room.
So
I
think
that
our
schools,
our
high
schools,
we
can
have
a
room
like
that
and
our
at
our
school,
where
students
can
go
and
they
can
just
like,
take
a
break
from
school
or
they
can
just
like
relax
or
they
can
have
like,
also
like,
maybe
counselors
in
there,
if
they
need
to
feel
they
feel
they
need
to
talk
like
talk
about
depression
or
other
things
that's
going
on.
R
So
I
think
one
of
the
biggest
issues
regarding
mental
health
is
awareness.
I
know
that
a
lot
of
students
don't
understand
that
there
are
resources
and
Outlets
for
that
I
know
at
Westbrook
we
have
an
inter
Club
Council,
Club,
sort
of
meetings
and
I,
don't
know
if
other
schools
have
that
or
not,
but
basically
what
we
do
is
we
come
together
from
different
clubs
and
we
discuss
the
most
challenging
issues
that
students
face.
One
of
them
is
mental
health,
so
I
think
it
stems
from.
R
We
have
to
go
to
each
respective
schools
right
talk
to
our
other
club
members
make
sure
we
get
a
discussion
going
and
then
have
some
sort
of
event
or
some
sort
of
day.
For
example,
you
could
do
like
a
mental
health
day
where
you
know
I've
heard
teachers
tell
me
personally
that
they
need
a
mental
health
day
from
school
right
and
I'm
sure
students
do
as
well.
So
you
could
have
something
like
that
you
we
can
do
possibly
an
event
where
we,
you
know
talk
to
students
about
the
challenges
of
mental
health.
B
B
To
now
being
more
like
a
game,
you
know,
I
mean
like
the
pay
and
GPA
is
points
and
whoever
has
the
most
of
them
wins
and
that
we
don't
measure
success
anymore
by
actual
achievement
capability,
but
more
like
where,
where
we
go
to
college
and
who
makes
the
most
money
after
like
after
we
graduate
you
know,
so
the
focus
has
shifted
away
from
the
academic
and
mental
Wellness
of
us
to
the
ability
of
us
to
achieve
a
certain
score
on
a
star
test
or
get
into
a
certain
college
or
have
the
highest
GPA,
not
at
all
how
we
feel
or
what
we're
actually
capable
of
where
it
matters
so
I
think
that
definitely
contributes
to
the
deleterious
effect
on
mental
health
in
the
schools.
B
E
I
agree
with
you:
Sam
I
feel
that
the
schools
need
to
find
a
way
to
recognize
everybody's
achievement
because
yeah
we
have
a
valedictorian
but
another
student,
the
GPA
just
put
up,
but
y'all
only
recognizing
the
valedictorian
can
we
find
a
way
to
recognize
everyone
else
for
their
all
accomplishments
and
then
so
I
know
I'm
staying
away
from
mental
health,
but
it
kind
of
ties
into
it
because
now
you're
feeling
lower
than
your
valedictorian,
because
well
my
rank
just
went
up
but
I'm
about
Victorian.
You
know.
J
I
want
to
steer
back
into
the
mental
health
thing.
I
know,
I.
Think
BSD
has
this
the
de-escalation
space,
but
I
haven't
seen
a
lot
of
people
using
it
at
all.
Like
students,
don't
at
least
at
my
school
I,
haven't
seen
anyone
use
the
spaces
teachers
have
it
set
up.
It's
like
a
table
a
little
stuff
to
do
just
in
case.
If
you
feel
overwhelmed
in
class,
you
can
go
and
you
can
do
something
for
like
10
minutes
and
then
get
back
to
work.
J
B
All
right
well,
thank
you
all
for
that.
We're
going
to
move
on
to
item
number
three
following
up
on
committee
assignments,
so
we
had
decided
on
a
group
of
us
to
manage
the
creation
of
the
beautification
day
that
we
talked
about
earlier.
So
if
y'all
could
like
raise
your
hands
indicate
that
you're
on
the
committee.
B
S
C
Just
want
y'all
to
follow
up
on
some
of
the
things
that
people
have
come
and
spoken
to
you
guys
about
different
topics.
That
I
think
you
guys
had
talked
about
initiatives
that
you
want
to
do
so
that
particular
action
knife
is
just
to
make
sure
you
know
where
you
go
where
you
guys
are
in
the
process.
C
What's
the
next
step,
if
y'all
need
to
follow
up
on
the
group
me
conversations,
I
know
you
guys
have
a
busy
schedule,
but
just
to
make
sure
you
follow
up
on
those
things
before
it
gets
too
far
out.
So,
if
you
have
any
of
the
committees
or
commitments
that
you
guys
kind
of
made
within
this
group,
that's
what
this
agenda
item
is
for.
E
We
do
have
other
committees
and
I
have
the
names
of
everybody
who's
on
the
Committees.
We
have
the
scholarship
committee,
that's
Brooklyn,
constantly
told
yashmi
and
Isaac,
and
then
they
have
the
beautification
day,
Miriam,
Zane,
gion
and
sod,
and
those
two
I
think
that's
the
only
committees
that
we
have.
C
And
you
guys
on
the
committee
y'all
can
just
I
mean
whatever
y'all
come
up
with
as
far
as
an
idea.
Let's
just
shoot
it
to
me
and
then
I
can
kind
of
work
with
you
guys
on
that.
But
I
don't
know
where
you
guys
are
in
the
process
with
the
committee
meetings
and
things
like
that,
but
at
least
have
one
or
two
meetings
within
your
committee
before
you
reach
back
out
to
me.
B
A
B
C
So
I
think
we
have
five
students
go
to
the
Dallas
conference,
which
was
the
Texas
youth
advisory
Summit.
So
most
of
the
all
those
students
came
from
Beaumont
Early
College
it
from
a
budgetary
standpoint.
It
would
be
really
hard
to
take
everybody
to
Washington
DC,
but
I
think
we
originally
had
the
conversation.
It
was
the
individuals
who
have
been
to
a
conference.
You
would,
you
know,
just
choose
one
conference
and
we
ever
had
five
students
go
to
one
conference.
M
C
Whole
conversation
now
and
I
can't
reveal
all
the
details,
but
what
my
goal
is
to
get
you
guys
funded
for
the
trip
through
working
with
Community
Partners.
That's
the
best
way
to
say
it.
So
I'll
follow
up
with
you
guys
before
the
week
is
out,
if
not
later
part
of
next
week.
So
I
would
like
to
take
everybody.
If
there's
a
possibility.
The
logistics
on
that.
C
I
don't
have,
but
two
questions
I
do
have
is
one:
when
is
your
spring
break
I
think
you
guys
have
different
spring
breaks
and
this
well
listen
to
that
first
question
then
we'll
come
to
the
second
one.
So
if
you
could
just
one
representative
from
your
school
tell
me
that
date,
if
that's
all
the
same
date,.
D
R
C
Everybody's
on
the
same
okay,
Harmony.
C
Legacy
in
Kelly,
so
Legacy
did
email
me.
He
can't
make
it
because
he
had
a
prior
commitment,
I
think
they're
playing
a
State
basketball
game.
That's
what
my
understanding
so
RJ
he's
playing
the
basketball
game
and
I
think
Zane
from
Kelly
wasn't
feeling
well,
so
he
couldn't
make
it
so
they
both
notified
me
prior
to
the
meeting.
C
C
C
S
C
So
I'll
take
that
information.
I
still
have
to
get
some
numbers
and
finding
out
expense.
We
have
the
expenses
broken
down
as
far
as
flights,
registration
of
food
room
rates.
We
have
all
that
that's
already
done.
The
the
next
step
on
our
side
is
to
make
sure
to
see
if
Community
Partners
can
pay
for
students
to
go.
What
that
does
is
it
helps
our
budget?
So
we
don't
drain
our
budget
and
we
don't
have
it.
C
We
can't
do
anything
else
with
those
funds,
so
we
do
have
some
funds,
but
the
goal
is
to
be
a
wise
manager,
so
we
do
have
Community
Partners.
It
seems
like
there
is
moving
in
a
positive
direction,
but
I
can't
speak
to
the
details
on
yeah
on
that.
But
I
will
follow
up
before
our
next
meeting
on
the
next
steps,
and
then
everybody
can
know.
C
Basically
it's
going
to
dictate
how
many
students
we
can
take
and
then
we'll
determine
the
students
who
haven't
taken,
who
haven't,
went
to
a
conference
as
priority
and
then
we'll
we'll
work.
Our
way
back
so
I
think
that's
obviously
understandable
with
most
of
the
groups.
So
we
can
move
on
to
the
next
agenda
or
any
questions
about
that
conference.
It
is
a
two-day
conference
I
think
the
conference
is
a
Sunday
and
a
Monday.
C
Some
groups
are
going
up
specifically
for
that
Sunday
that
Monday
and
then
they
fly
back
so
essentially
you
only
miss
one
day
of
school
to
be
pretty
tough
as
far
as
Logistics
getting
back.
Some
groups
go
up
there
and
they
stay
a
couple
days
and
they
go
see.
You
know
the
White
House
and
they
take
different
trips.
C
We
can't
guarantee
that
we'll
have
an
extended
stay,
but
those
two
days
are
specifically
for
that
conference.
So
you'll
you'll
know
all
the
details
on
that.
We
have
the
price
price
breakdown.
I'm,
not
asking
you
guys
to
come
out
of
pocket
per
se.
I
may
ask
you
to
cover
your
own
meal
at
a
certain
time,
but
that
may
be
one
meal.
C
That
would
be
something
that
you
would
normally
do
if
you
went
to
a
conference,
but
as
far
as
registration
and
things
like
that,
I'm
not
asking
you
guys
to
move
in
that
direction.
That's
not.
T
C
Not
our
goal
put
it
that
way,
so
I
want
to
I
want
to
put
that
pressure
on
you
guys.
So
that
concludes
my
session
or
my
conversation
on
that
particular
item.
Any
other
questions
or
anything.
C
I
think
this,
so
this
conversation
came
from
I.
Think
junior
leadership
I
think
some
students
that
came
here
and
they
were
just
kind
of
talking
about
their
perspective
within
the
schools
and
that'll,
lead
to
my
work
session
later
on
objectives
and
goals,
but
I
think
Alex
and
I
had
had
a
conversation.
C
Secondly,
we
should
involve
you
guys
as
additional
testimony
or
you
know
your
experience
from
this
youth
Council
we're
in
the
process
of
building
Rapport
and
relationship
with
BISD,
and
so
we
want
to
make
sure
that
you
know
we
just
taken
to
this
serious
death
moving
forward.
So
if
we're
communicating
with
the
school
board,
I
can
serve
as
your
representative
to
go.
Do
that
initially
it's
a
little
bit
different
for
the
city,
because
we
don't
have
the
youth
component
here.
So
that's
why
we
have
the
youth
Council,
but
Alex.
C
Do
you
want
to
speak
to
a
little
bit
on
why
you
wanted
to
kind
of
approach
the
school
board
and
then
from
there?
We
could
just
kind
of
have
that
conversation
here,
but
letting
everybody
know
if
we
are
to
go
to
the
school
board.
All
communication
will
come
through
me
and
I'll
communicate
on
your
behalf,
pretty
much
just
telling
about
the
program
and
so
any
objections
to
that
or
anybody
say
no
I
want
I
want
to
speak
I.
C
C
Yes,
yeah
I
think
attending
is
attendance
is
good
because
you
want
to
show
you
know
one
representatives
in
the
community
that
this
is
a
viable
program.
You
guys
are
interested
you're
engaged
and
something
like
attendant
would
be
huge.
But
when
you're
speaking,
you
know,
as
as
our
initial
conversation
I
think
you
know
anything
that
I'm
speaking
about
I'll
talk
to
you
guys
about
it
first
and
so
we'll
have
that
conversation
in-house,
which
is
one
of
our
next.
C
In
the
agenda
is
one
of
our
other
items,
but
this
would
be
more
of
an
executive
session
type
conversation.
So
we'll
talk
about
in-house
what
our
thoughts
all
come
together
with
a
unified
message
that
one
is
supported
by
the
council
and
the
city
manager.
So
if
you
guys
don't
have
any
objections
to
that
I'll
be
a
representative,
but
did
you
want
to
add
to
that
or
I
think
that's
good?
Okay.
So,
essentially
we
do
plan
on
going
to
approach
the
school
board
in
the
future
we
have.
C
We
do
have
some
joint
initiatives,
we're
working
with
on
the
district
side,
so
I
think
it'll
just
be
a
healthy
relationship
to
manage
I.
Think
everybody's
excited,
so
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
all
on
the
same
page
during
communicating
when
we
do
it
in
the
city.
Just
to
give
you
guys
a
little
policy
how
it
goes.
We
we
go
through
a
media
training
so
anything
that
we
go
out
and
speak
on
regarding
to
the
media
we
have.
That
has
to
be
vetted
before
we
go
speak
publicly.
C
So
this
is
just
kind
of
that
other
approach,
and
so
since
you
guys
don't
have
any
issues
with
that,
we'll
just
move
forward
and
we'll
schedule
a
day
to
attend
the
school
board
meeting
and
different
things
like
that.
So,
if
y'all
want
to
add
something
to
it,
I'll
definitely
give
you
you
what
my
presentation
would
be
beforehand
and
you
can
kind
of
poke
hoes
through
to
say
hey.
Could
you
add
this?
Could
you
highlight
this
any
anybody
else
want
to
add
anything
to
that.
G
So
at
the
conference
we
went
to
in
Dallas
a
lot
of
the
other
councils.
They
had
some
sort
of
bonding
activity
or
mixer
that
they
all
did
a
common
one.
They
did
was
like
an
escape
room.
So
I
was
thinking.
We
could
do
an
escape
room,
I'm,
sorry
to
kind
of
bond
and
get
to
know
each
other.
C
C
I
think
that's
a
good
idea.
I
just
want
to
you
know
so
for
the
audience.
When
we
go
to
conferences,
it's
important
to
bring
back
things
that
one
worked
for
us
in
this
community
and
improve
the
relationships
here
and
improve
our
process.
So,
like
I,
said
that
there
are
other
groups
who
were
doing
different
activities,
the
escape
room
was
won
and
they
did
so
many
different
things.
C
So
some
of
these
groups
had
I
would
say,
had
good
team
chemistry,
they
work
well
together
and
in
government
and
when
you're
doing
stuff
like
this,
the
more
trust
you
have
within
a
group,
the
faster
things
move
the
much
easier
it
is,
and
it's
more
fun
that
way,
so
you
guys,
obviously
were
thrown
together
and
you
guys
are
doing
great,
but
you
know
building
that
chemistry.
It
takes
time
it
takes
working
together.
You
learn
your
strength.
You
learn
when
to
use
your
strength,
you
learn
when
not
to
use
it.
C
So
I
think
whatever
you
guys
maybe
I
want
to
set
up
in
your
group
me
decide
three
activities
and
pick
one
of
their
activities
and
then
pick
a
date
and
then
we'll
start
working
from
there
and
then
once
y'all
get
a
date.
You
know
we
can
kind
of
you
know
playing
that
and
I
think
that
would
be
if
that's
something
that
y'all
decide
what
y'all
want
to
do,
I'll
just
kind
of
make
sure
it's
paid
for
not
not
remember
not
too
much.
C
C
B
B
Moving
to
item
number
seven
so
to
discuss
and
approve
the
youth
legislative
document.
So
that's
for
us
to
go
and
amend
this
right
into
what
the
PowerPoint
was
so
again,
if
any
of
y'all
have
any
suggestions
or
any
issues
or
viewpoints
that
you'd
like
to
be
voiced
in
the
Mark
II
of
the
blue
document
here
now
is
the
opportunity
for
that.
B
So,
just
to
kind
of
outline,
what's
in
the
in
what
you
were
given,
these
are
all
things
that
we
have
done
or
will
do,
whereas
the
PowerPoint
is
more
things
that
we
want
the
city
to
do
for
us.
Does
that
make
sense
so
like
these
are
all
actions
that
we
have
taken
right,
so
the
PowerPoint
moves
more
in
the
direction
of
advising
the
city
council
on
things
that
we
would
like
to
see
done.
Does
that
make
it
so
like?
If
there's
any
questions
on
that
happy
to
answer.
J
C
Yeah
I
think
this
is
something
that
you
probably
want
to
take
back
to
your
schools
as
well,
so
other
students
could
see
it
because
in
the
future
you
guys
are
basically
given
a
template
to
the
City
of
Beaumont.
So
every
time
they
you
know
decide
to
have
a
negotiation
with
bird
scooters.
The
youth
are
saying
you
want
a
mandatory
ID,
and
so
you
want
to
put
things
in
place.
It
happens.
You
begin
to
change
a
policy
and
if
you
change
the
policy
at
the
local
level,
it's
called
the
ordinance
and
that's
a
local
law.
C
So
you
kind
of
this
would
be
more
so
a
policy
recommendation
put
it
that
way.
So
I
think
this
is
a
good
step
for
you
guys
to
learn
and
you
can
start
attending
account.
So
if
you
see
things
that
don't
check
your
legislative,
you
know
packet
here,
based
on
what
you
guys
are
talking
about.
You
can
voice
share
perspective
and
you
have
a
group
of
people
supporting
you
so
this
you
know
this
document
here
has
a
little
bit
more
weight
to
it.
C
When
you,
when
you're
at
the
youth
Council,
you
guys
are
representing
other
schools,
and
so
when
I'm
talking
to
you
guys,
I
think
that
I'm
talking
to
all
was
it
how
many
students
in
the
BISD
17
000
up
north
of
that
number,
so
I
think
I'm
talking
to
17
000
students.
That's
my
mindset
or
probably
more
because
you
have
other
schools
included,
but
you
guys
represent
those
students
becoming
leaders
from
that
group
of
people
and
then
you're
putting
this
document
together.
So
the
city
council
is
going
to
look
at.
C
This
is
as
if
they're
talking
to
the
all
of
the
youth
included
in
the
school
district,
and
so
that's
how
they're
going
to
see
it
once
it's
finalized
and
so
make
sure
that
if
you
have
any
things
that
that
you
want
to
add
to
it,
you
know
do
so
before
the
deadline.
K
B
C
So
I
think
this
is
just
to
have
a
public
conversation
for
you
guys
and
for
myself
to
help
us
continue
to
improve
the
program
and
to
make
sure
that
the
public
is
informed
on
our
process,
because
I
think
if
we
have
this
every
so
often
you
end
up
having
a
really
good
program
and
it's
good
to
get
positive
feedback,
or
you
know
constructive
criticism
so
either
way
it
works
best
for
us
what
I
wanted
to
kind
of
list
out
is
some
of
the
general
rules
on
some
of
our
intention
on
what
we,
when
we
decided
to
be
a
youth
Council.
C
What
I
really
wanted
that
to
look
like
and
then
so
the
public
can
understand,
because
some
of
these
may
be
the
first
time
attending
so
I.
Look
at
you
guys
as
a
real
city
council
you're,
just
a
youth
version
of
that
City
Council
on
a
Tuesday
at
1,
30
Council
meets
they
have
a
mayor.
You
have
a
city
manager,
you
have
a
City
attorney,
you
have
department,
heads
and
everybody
adds
to
the
agenda,
but
not
everybody
votes,
and
so
everybody
plays
an
important
role
as
saying
it's
a
huge
Partnership.
C
If
you
you
do
it
correctly,
and
so
my
question
to
you
guys
is:
how
are
you
liking
it
so
far,
and
then
we
can
kind
of
go,
have
a
little
dialogue
back
and
forth.
So
this
is
for
me
to
listen
to
you
guys
to
make
sure
that
we're
not
just
having
meetings
and
meetings
and
meetings
and
obviously
we're
new.
C
We
have
a
lot
of
things
we
can
improve
on,
but
I
want
to
hear
more
from
you
guys
so
and
if
you
don't
normally
speak,
I
want
to
hear
from
you
more
because
some
of
you
guys
speak
more
than
others.
So
if
you
don't
normally
speak
I
kind
of
want
to
get
your
feedback,
but
this
is
just
a
one,
so
the
public
can
understand
that
great
programs
improve
when
we
work
together.
You
know
not
when
we
hide
from
constructive
criticism.
So
that's
what
this
is
so
I'll
just
open
it
up
to
you
guys.
C
First
questions:
how
do
you
think
it's
going?
What
you
like
about
it,
something
you
can
we
can
work
on
to
improve.
E
Well,
I
think
that
we're
doing
good
because
well
we
had.
We
were
the
first
group
there
that
we
had
nothing
to
go
off
of.
We
just
had
to
come
like
together
as
one
so
I
think
for
what
we're
doing
we're
doing
good
I
mean
we
do
put
out
a
lot
of
like
problems,
but
we
don't
I,
do
a
lot
of
solutions,
but
we're
working
on
it.
We're
working
on
it.
E
Yes
and
oh,
but
I,
think
we're
doing
good,
and
what
was
the
other
one
you
had
when
Mariah's
gonna
say.
J
T
K
Another
I
also
really
like
how
much
support
y'all
shown
us,
because
a
lot
of
like
organizations
and
stuff
that
we've
been
in
like
they
started,
but
they
don't
really
finish
it
or
they'll
like
not
really
take
in
our
like
what
we
try
to
tell
them
and
I've
noticed
I'm
pretty
sure
we
all
have
noticed
that
y'all
actually
listen
to
what
we
have
to
say
and
like
do
something
about
it.
Yeah.
L
F
I
would
say
that
I
kind
of
tie
into
what
Miriam
said
and
what
Arlette
said
I
feel
like
our
communication
could
be
a
lot
better,
which
I
also
feel
like
comes
from
the
lack
of
like
connection
we
all
have,
which
is
where
the
bonding
thing
would
help.
We
know
each
other
from
here,
but
we
most
time
I
would
not
talk
to
a
majority
of
y'all
outside
of
school
or
outside
of
here.
F
If
I
were
to
see
you
not
anything
against
y'all,
just
that
we're
not
super
close
like
that,
so
I
feel
like
bonding
would
help
with
our
communication.
A
lot
which
would
also
I
feel
like
help
us
keep
in
our
positions,
but
also
I,
feel
like
understanding
our
roles
and
acting
in
our
roles
is
more
of
a
personal
thing.
You
need
to
take
the
initiative
to
learn
your
role
and
to
own
that
position.
F
So
I
feel
like
that
also
falls
under
how
well
we
communicate
with
each
other
just
that
some
people
are
more
driven
to
just
take
charge
and
I
feel
like.
We
all
need
to
get
to
know
each
other
better,
to
feel
comfortable
to
speak
to
own
into
your
own
role.
So
I
feel
like
that's
something
we
can
all
work
on
as
a
group.
G
I
I
feel
like
we're
doing
good
and
back
to
like
us
kind
of
not
knowing
what
we're
supposed
to
do
like
I
feel
like
if
we
could
just
have
a
piece
of
paper
that,
like
has
our
rules
like
what
our
position
does
and
everything
that
would
be
a
little
better
so
like
because
I'm
scared
that
I'm
gonna
do
someone
else's
job
and
don't
get
mad
at
me.
Okay,.
E
On
a
positive
note,
I
did
realize
that
we,
when
we
talked
about
the
first
meeting,
we
talked
about
getting
stuff
out
that
we
are
doing
Beaumont
on
other
social
media
platforms
and
I
was
scrolling
through
Tick
Tock
I
did
see
a
tick
tock
about
ice
cream
shop
in
Beaumont
that
nobody
knew
about
I
reposted
it
everybody's
reposting,
everybody's
I,
didn't
even
know
we
had
this.
It's
so
nice.
We're
gonna
go
this
weekend,
so
I
can't
say
we
are
kind
of
making
a
change.
U
I,
like
how
you
guys
put
us
in
the
professional
standpoint
like
we're,
not
just
in
the
crowd,
talking
we're
actually
up
here
in
front
of
everybody
and
like
we're
putting
y'all
shoes.
So
we
can
see
and
we
can
have
the
conversation
and
let
the
people
know
what
we're
talking
about
and
what
we
have
to
say.
E
I
know
I
already
spoke,
but
I
was
just
saying
that
I,
don't
it's
not
off
topic,
oh
it's
on
topic,
but
how
we
should
have
the
meetings
at
different
places,
because
you
know
how
we
talking
about
the
youth
speak
out
like
with
Sam
like
we're,
not
gonna.
Have
anybody
come
to
the
chambers?
They
just
don't
want
to
come
here.
E
K
B
Here's
a
thought
that
the
junior
leadership
group
the
year
under
us,
why
can't
they
come
I,
think
that'd
be
that
would
be
cool
I
would
have
attend
this
movie
I
think
that
would
be
very
good
for
them
to
or
like
maybe
like
I
get
to.
Maybe
they
can't
all
come
to
one
of
the
meetings
immediately
after
school
like
we
have
them,
so,
maybe
hypothetically
the
next
time
they
have
an
outing
or
like
one
of
their
future
dates
that
they
have.
B
E
I
do
think
we
should
have
the
meetings
around
Beaumont,
because
some
youth
don't
have
cars
to
drive
all
the
way
over
here
or
like.
If
we
have
it
in
the
North
End
people
from
the
North
End
can
come
to
those
meeting.
They
can
walk
there,
the
West
End
they
can
walk
there,
but
coming
all
the
way
over
here,
some
people
might
not
have
rods
things
that
want
to
attend.
U
L
Like
our
last
said,
we,
since
we
are
video
streaming
this,
but
like
I,
mean
in
all
the
other
locations
where
we
would
held
the
meetings.
We
could
live
stream
it
and
to
also
show
to
the
City
of
Beaumont
that,
just
because
we're
City
doesn't
mean
oh,
like
come
here
at
this
nice
looking
place
that
we're
willing
to
go
around
Beaumont
to
show
that
we're
like
we're
there
for
y'all.
We
support
you
and
like
we
don't
care
where
it
is
like.
This
is
Beaumont.
J
B
B
You
know
that,
like
there's
a
certain
kind
of
you
could
say
like
gravitas
that
comes
with
having
it
here,
as
opposed
to
you
know
some
random,
Community,
Center,
so
I
think
that
you
know,
like
you,
said
that
people
don't
come
here.
Is
that
like
so
like?
They
refused
to
come
here
just
like
they
don't
know
where
it
is
or
like
whatever?
No.
E
Being
here
is
intimidating,
they
don't
want
to
get
up
here
and
speed,
but
if
we
go
to
like
a
community
park
like
we're
me
constantly
tell
Naya,
Brooklyn
and
Kelsey
we're
in
a
it's
called
Gift
of
Life
youth
Council
and
they
meet
at
Rogers
Park.
It's
not
as
intimidating
people
can
come
that
have
security
watching
the
door.
So
it's
safe
but
like
more
people
will
come
there,
because
it's
not
as
intimidating
as
being
in
a
room
like
this
and
a
lot
of
people
know
where
Rogers
Park
is
at
it's
right.
There.
U
J
I'm
going
on
like
a
hunch
here,
but
I
think
the
reason
that
a
lot
of
people
do
not
come
out
to
meetings
like
these
is
because
it
involves
being
involved
within
their
community
and
they
rather
much
get
off
of
work.
Go
home
have
dinner.
You
know
sleep
instead
of
having
to
come,
sit
at
a
meeting
and
discuss
these
issues
that
they
don't
really
care
about.
Most
of
the
time,
though,
it
might
really
affect
them
and
benefit
them
in
a
way.
They're
kind
of
ignorant.
F
Yeah
I
agree,
I
understand
wanting
to
like
move
around
the
community,
but
in
reality,
I
feel
like
moving
to
different
locations,
won't
change.
The
attendance
I
think
that's
something
we're
just
gonna
have
to
deal
with,
and
work
on,
as
a
group
and
kind
of
like
Sam
mentioned
being
here
gives
us
almost
a
sense
of
like
being
professional.
It's
uniform
we're
always
here
most
of
the
time
at
the
same
times,
and
that's
something
we
did
talk
about
in
we
went
to
the
Dallas
conference.
We
talked
about
being
uniform
and
how
having
set
locations
logos.
F
That's
what
builds
the
councils
I
think
we're
in
the
beginning
stages.
Attendance
will
be
low.
It
is
a
little
out
of
the
way
from
homes,
but
I
feel
like
it
would
probably
be
the
same
amount
of
people
that
would
come
if
we
were
to
move
to
Rogers,
Park
or
Community
Center,
and
it
would
confuse
people
if
we're
bouncing
back
and
forth
between
locations.
Awesome.
U
Also
I
feel,
like
more
people
would
come
out
if
we
put
like
a
make,
a
meaning
behind
the
meaning.
It's
like,
if
we
put
oh
we're,
going
to
talk
about
this
this,
and
this
like
a
lot
of,
say,
like
people,
that's
in
poverty,
they'll
be
like
we're
talking
about
housing
and
stuff
like
that.
Who
can
help
and
they'll
want
to
come
out,
because
they
know
that
they'll
benefit
from
something
like
this
or
we're
talking
about
something
that
involves
them.
That
would
that
would
make
them
want
to
come
out.
V
Okay,
I
feel,
like
I,
agree
on
being
in
different
places,
because
we
just
kind
of
just
like
agreed
on
City
Hall,
but
we
never
tried
to
like
meet
like
like,
for
instance,
like
Rogers
Park.
We
never
tried
to
meet
there
to
see
like
how
to
attendance
to
be
or
anything
like
that.
We
just
kind
of
agreed
on
City,
Hall
and
yeah.
So
that's
my
input
on
it.
K
E
And
we're
also
just
talking
about
what
will
happen
you
you
know,
we
don't
know.
If
we
go
to
Rogers
Park,
it
might
be
a
better
attendance
rate.
We
just
saying
they
might
not.
They're
not
gonna
come
just
because
I
mean
they
might
come.
They
said
Rogers,
Park
I
know
me,
I'm
not
gonna.
Come
talk
in
front
of
my
peers
right
here,
but
I'll
go
to
Rogers
Park
and
talk
because
I
feel
y'all
just
staring
at
me
and
judging.
E
U
And
also
if
we
could
do
like
a
meeting
like
where
maybe
we
take
off
from
school
one
day
and
we
go
to
different
schools,
and
we
have
them
like
in
an
auditorium
and
we
hear
what
they
have
to
say
because
a
lot
of
people
can't
use
like
they
don't
have
transportation
or
they're
scared
to
come
up
here.
So
maybe
we
go
to
their
schools
and
where
they
feel
more
comfortable
on
their
friends.
And
they
want
to
talk
to
us
and
tell
us
like
what
they
want
to
see.
E
Yeah
I
agree
with
Kelsey,
but
like
Catherine
was
saying
yeah.
We
should
probably
like
you
he's
more
professional
here,
but,
like
our
goal
is
the
youth
we
need
to
go
where
we
think
the
youth
would
be
and,
like
our
let's
say
and
like
I
said,
the
past
meeting,
we
need
to
have
a
meeting
and
then
say
like:
oh,
it's
gonna
be
pizza
here.
So
if
you
come,
you
can
get
food
at
this
practice.
You
can
speak
like
you
know.
We
trying
to
cater
to
the
youth.
E
R
I
I
definitely
agree
on
going
to
different
schools,
because
right
now
we're
not
really
hearing
from
you
like
we're,
not
hearing
what
their
issues
are.
I
feel
like
we're
just
going
off
based
off
what
all
within
our
group,
things
and
I
feel
like
it'll,
be
very
beneficial
hearing
from
their
standpoint.
I
think
that
also
feel
more
comfortable
since
we're
in,
like
technically
in
their
homes
and
their
schools
and
stuff.
B
U
Let's
go
to
like
go
away
with
the
scholarships
like
we
could
do
like,
maybe
if
we
can
get
like
Lamar
or
somewhere,
or
maybe
like
the
Houston
Rockets
like
spawn,
not
sponsor
necessarily
black.
If
you
fill
out
10
scholarships
and
you
come
show
us,
then
you
get
like
a
free
Basketball
ticket
or
something
like
that,
or
maybe
like
overboard
for
doing
something
that
could
benefit
you
in
the
end.
C
Let
me
add
to
it,
so
that's
good
feedback.
We
taking
notes
on
that.
Just
because
I'm,
not
writing.
We
are
taking
notes.
I
do
want
to
list
some
of
the
goals
and
objectives
of
what
I
thought
we
should
be.
As
a
youth
Council,
we
went
to
Dallas.
We
learned
that
a
lot
of
groups
do
a
lot
of
volunteer
type
programs
and
I.
C
Think
one
of
my
goals
was
for
the
group
is
that
you
guys
operate
like
a
youth,
Council
kind
of
like
what
y'all
doing
now
when
y'all
did
the
going
through
talking
about
the
bird
scooters,
y'all
had
different
discussions
that
found
out.
You
know
we
want
an
ID
associated
with
the
bird
school,
that's
just
one
little
thing,
but
everything
whether
you're
talking
about
homelessness,
whether
you
want
to
go
to
different
schools
and
listen
to
them
and
get
more
feedback,
so
you
can
get
more
input.
So
you
present
a
document,
everybody.
C
You
know
you've
heard
from
everybody
versus
just
assuming
I
heard
from
everybody
when
I
talked
to
you
guys,
so
those
are
the
things
I
want.
I
I
thought
would
be
good
for
you
guys
as
far
as
operating
as
a
true
governmental
Council.
C
Where
you
talk
about
things
you
deliberate,
you
may
agree
to
disagree,
but
at
some
point
you
know
you
guys
come
together
and
the
majority
you
decide
what
what
is
best
for
the
Youth
and
I
think
you
guys
are
doing
a
great
job
traditionally,
when
we
start
this
program
in
September,
but
you
guys
started
in
January.
So
that
was
a
late
start
and
it
was
a
like
you,
like
you
heard
it
was
a
my
late
start,
and
you
know
the
bonding
time
is
tough
to
bond
in
that
time.
C
But
I
think
you
guys
have
done
a
great
job,
I
think
you're
kind
of
getting
more
comfortable
on
the
dice.
That's
what
this
is
called
and
you're,
getting
better
feedback
between
each
other
you're
kind
of
stepping
up
and
speaking
on
particular
things
that
I
think
is
important,
and
even
when
people
that
are
elected
come
visit,
I
think
you
guys
have
kind
of
figured
out
a
way
to
have
confidence
in
those
moments.
So
that's
good
too.
D
C
Like
the
fact
that
I
didn't
really
I
tried
to
give
you
guys
vague
Direction,
but
not
too
much
Direction,
because
I
wanted
y'all
to
figure
out
what
is
best
for
you,
you
guys
so
I,
try
not
to
micromanage
but
I,
try
to
keep
you
away
from
doing
too
much
as
far
as
spending
money
and
stuff
like
that,
we
have
money,
but
we
don't
want
to
spend
too
much
because
there
are
more
efficient
ways
to
do
the
same
thing.
Essentially,
so
you
know
we
started
in
September,
that's
when
the
program
will
start
next
year.
C
Our
goal
was
that
every
position
you
know
we
still
want
to
link
you
guys
with
department
heads
to
kind
of
give
you
a
at
least
a
brief
meeting
to
give
you
Insight
on
what
those
positions
are
like.
C
Hopefully
that
you
know
if
you
do
stay
in
the
area,
their
internships,
if
we
can
get
more
funding,
we're
looking
at
scholarship
opportunities,
but
I
did
want
to
list
my
goals
and
objectives
to
you
guys
to
let
you
know,
I
didn't
want
everybody
to
be
a
voting
member,
because
that's
not
really
how
life
is
and
that's
really
not
how
a
council
is.
You
know
a
council
is
made
up
of
council
members
a
mayor.
C
You
have
department
heads,
you
have
a
city
manager
and
there
are
some
things
that
non-voted
members
have
that
voter
members
don't
and
so
that
process
takes
a
while,
for
you
guys
to
understand
and
learn.
It
took
a
long
time
for
me
to
kind
of
understand
that.
But
it's
you
know
it's
a
part
of
government
and
when
you
understand
it
here,
you'll
understand
that
you
know
when
you
see
stuff
for
the
media
or
different
legislative
processes
But.
Ultimately,
a
governmental
entity
will
be
great
idea
and
I
think
you
guys
are
moving
towards
that.
C
I
appreciate
all
the
feedback,
and
so
we
take
notes
and
then
what
we'll
do
is
develop
based
on
you
guys
feedback.
Our
next
agenda
item
so
the
next
time
we
meet
we'll
discuss
things
based
on
different
feedback,
we'll
design
our
flyers
in
ways
that
include
different
key
points
and
so
I
appreciate
all
your
feedback.
Anything
else
you
guys
have.
G
D
A
S
S
C
We'll
get
somebody
like
Student,
Government,
Association
or
your
administrators,
or
presidents
or
professors
of
different
colleges,
y'all
thinking
like
that
something
that
kind
of
gives
you
information
the
first
two
years
I
mean
some
of
you
guys
will
be
graduating
with
Associates,
but
for
others
going
into
your
first
two
years.
Things
like
that
is
that
what
you're
referring
to
getting
more
insight?
Okay,
we
can
set
that
up.
B
All
right,
thank
you
for
that,
sir.
We're
going
to
move
to
number
eight
voting
to
approve
the
next
meeting
date
and
time
in
March.
So
we've
the
schedule
that
we
were
given
originally
had
March
9th
I.
Think
four
to
six
back
at
the
original
time.
B
L
March
tonight,
yeah
I
do
think
that
the
ninth
is
complicated
to
some
students,
especially
at
our
school,
to
be
also
hosting
an
event.
That
day.
C
N
C
T
C
C
It's
a
private
meeting,
so
I
want
to
start
setting
up
a
private
meeting
with
you
guys,
basically
like
we
have
them
right
now,
but
it'll
be
here,
so
you
basically
have
to
get
here
either
30
minutes
before
most
executive
session
meetings
are
held
after
so
you
can
have
it
before,
like
you,
guys
can
get
here
30
minutes
before,
and
then
we
have
a
team
meeting
and
then
we
start
our
meeting
so
I
think
because
we'll
As
you
move
forward
in
this
type
of
group,
you
have
so
many
things
going
on.
C
You'll
have
funding
and
things
going
on
that
we
need
to
discuss
so
30
minutes
meeting
is
what
what
typically
call
an
executive
session
meeting
the
City
of
Beaumont
does
their
executive
session
at
the
end
of
a
meeting.
So
once
they
conclude
the
meeting,
it's
a
closed
door
meeting
and
you
just
kind
of
talk
about
a
couple
things.
You'll
know
what
the
executive
session
items
are.
They're.
Looking
at
it's
an
agenda
item,
so
you
know
what
you're
discussing,
but
it's
just
more
specific
to
you
guys
as
a
group.
C
Essentially
something
like
the
conference
would
be
an
executive
session
item
like
we'll
talk
about
the
DC
conference,
how
much
it
costs
who's
going?
Who
should
go?
Who
shouldn't
go
based
on
that?
That
would
be
an
executive
session
item,
so
we
can
decide
to
do
that.
I
would
recommend
we
do
that
before
the
meeting
starts.
C
So
that's
basically
just
getting
here.
If
you
can
do
30
minutes,
that's
phenomenal.
If
you
could
do
15
minutes,
we
could
do
that
too,
but
you
would
have
to
start
at
the
15
minute.
Marker
30
minutes
is
enough
time
to
kind
of
do
that
you
don't
have
too
much.
So
can
you
you?
Can
you
commit
to
being
here
at
3,
45.
J
C
J
C
So
when
they
do
executive
sessions
and
and
the
county
does
it
this
way,
the
county
starts
their
meetings
off
with
an
executive
session
and
then
they
open
it
up
to
the
public,
the
City
of
Beaumont.
We
do
our
meetings
and
then
at
the
end
of
it
it
ends
the
meeting.
And
then
you
go
into
executive
session.
I,
don't
want
you
I,
don't
want
to
keep
you
guys
here
that
long
I
think
if
you
get
here
a
little
bit
early,
you
still
get
out
here
earlier
it
kind
of
works
best.
So
it's
that's.
That's
my
thoughts.
M
S
C
C
B
C
You're
here
yeah
yeah,
but
you
got
to
be
here
and
be
seated,
not
getting
here
pulling
in
so
this
is
you
really
need
to
be
here.
17
minutes
in
advance.
Sit
down,
took
you
two
minutes,
so
is
that
something
that
y'all
are
okay
with
doing,
because
I
think
that'll
help
us
kind
of
build
more
team
Synergy,
it's
more
like
a
coaching
time,
so
I'll
speak
to
you
guys
in
our
executive
sessions.
C
We
may
bring
in
people
to
come,
speak
to
you
for
about
10
minutes
on
different
topics,
but
executive
sessions
are
meant
for
special
items
like
the
conference
going
to
Washington
DC,
because
it
requires
a
chaperone.
It
requires
liability,
forms
and
things
like
that.
So
because
there's
some
more
so
much
more
details,
that's
what
you
were
discuss
in
an
executive
session
now,
if
you
guys
want
to
have
people
in
those
meetings
that
is
totally
up
to
you,
executive
sessions
are
traditionally
closed
door,
which
I
would
prefer
you
get
that
kind
of
experience.
It's
just.
S
B
B
T
B
C
L
C
C
Yeah
I
think
you
should
I
think
you
guys
can
do
a
meeting
an
hour
and
a
half
yeah
I
think
I
mean
right.
Now
we
we're
dragging
on
this
item
and
then
we
could
be
done
I'm
just
looking
at
a
time
right
here,
but
that's
what
I'm
saying
this
can
be
summarized
so
I
think
traditionally
y'all
mean
you
shouldn't
last
past
hour
and
a
half
unless
you
got
like
a
a
big
form
or
a
big
issue.
C
You
know
there
are
special
items,
I
think
traditionally
hour
and
a
half
is
a
good
time,
so
you
still
can
end
at
six
and
start
at
four,
but
but
the
executive
section
will
be
just
the
first
thing.
You're
talking
about
so
y'all
are
y'all.
Okay,
with
that
I
mean
you
really
have
the
same.
You're
moving
your
time
back
to
four,
but
you
would
have
the
same
format.
Does
that
work
that
worked
at
work?
F
C
Do
it
I
mean
it's
a
you
know
it's
really
up
to
y'all
I'm,
letting
y'all
kind
of
tell
me
what
so,
let's
start
with
this,
the
time
slot
doesn't
change.
You're,
agreeing
everybody's
agreeing
to
move
it
to
46..
Is
that
correct?
We
know
that
meetings
shouldn't
last
past
hour
and
a
half.
Are
we
agreeing
on
that?
That's
a
good
time
frame
and
if
you
go
longer,
it
should
go
longer.
I
don't
want
to
limit
you
guys
on
what
you
need
to
speak
about.
E
C
E
G
C
G
C
So
it's
4
00
p.m.
We're
starting
at
4
P.M
is
that
all
in
favor
I
mean
everybody
can
raise
your
hand.
This
is
just
kind
of
General
consensus.
4
P.M.
You
start
the
executive
session
at
4
pm.
It's
a
meeting
for
you
guys
in
your
mind,
think
you
started
the
meeting
at
four
we
having
our
our
private
meeting
and
then
we
we
open
up
the
meeting
when
we
finish
our
executive
session.
It
should
never
go
past.
30
minutes,
15
minutes
minimum.
Thank.
K
E
K
E
B
C
J
B
Q
Hey
I
just
want
to
say
fantastic
job,
guys,
I,
really
like
the
fact
that
you
guys
are
naming
yourself
to
really
mirror
a
city
council.
Have
you
guys
had
any
experience
watching
and
seeing
it
for
yourself
attending
in
on
a
meeting,
I
mean
show
of
hands,
but
what
I'm?
What
I'm
really
impressed
about
is
that
you
guys
are
able
to
understand
what
the
Democratic
process
is.
Q
B
F
I
just
kind
of
had
a
question:
I
know:
I,
don't
I!
Think
I
can
speak
in
this
part,
but
so
for
the
March
6
meeting.
Since
that
will
be
our
executive
meeting
time.
Is
the
March
group
presenting
at
this
meeting
or
will
we
presented
the
next
one.
B
E
J
Q
So
this
would
be
a
good
point
to
carry
over
to
some
of
the
other
classmates
you
guys
have
so
I
have
a
scholarship
and
the
way
that
I
choose
to
present.
It
is
going
to
actually
be
through
flip,
formerly
named
flipgrid,
or
you
any
of
you
guys
familiar
with
that
familiar,
so
the
scholarship
will
be
for
people
who
have
aspirations
of
becoming
a
Beaumont
ISD
educator.
Just
like
you
guys,
you're,
seeing
right
now
that
you're
trying
to
draw
solutions.
The
nation
says
that
there
is
a
shortage
of
having
Educators.
Q
So
what
do
I
do
what
decide
you
know
just
try
to
come
up
with
a
scholarship,
that's
tailored
toward
Beaumont,
Early,
College,
Westbrook
and
also
Beaumont
United.
For
those
who
are
choosing
to
be
an
educator
too
many
presentation
of
why
you
want
to
be
an
educator,
pretty
simple,
just
upload
it
I
have
the
flyer
available.
It
will
be
posted
in
you,
guys,
high
schools,
probably
after
spring
break
foreign.
A
Q
Mean
anybody
who's
going
to
school
will
be
looking
to
be
an
educator
for
duration
of
pretty
much
their
career,
but
again
it's
for
people
who
want
to
go
through
that
pathway.
So
you
guys
you
guys,
may
not,
may
not
see
that
need,
but
you
may
have
a
period
or
a
certain
or
someone
to
the
extent.
That
may
say:
okay
well,
I
know
someone
who
wants
to
be
a
teacher.
They
have
aspirations
of
doing
that
and
then
we're
trying
to
do
is
Corral
people
to
come
back
to
Beaumont
ISD.
Q
V
My
coach
now
my
coach
now
my
track
coach.
She
I
feel
like
she'll,
probably
she's,
still
gonna
be
around
when
I'm
out
of
school
and
I
see
her
passion
for
like
teaching
and
coaching.
So
that
kind
of
made
me
I
want
to
be
an
education
educator.
But
today
made
me
realize,
like
I,
want
to
be
a
coach
also,
okay,.
V
Name
is
coach,
boxy
gallo,
Desiree
box
of
yellow,
okay.
Q
I'm
not
familiar
with
her,
but
needless
to
say,
if
there's
anything
against
issue
with
it,
but
then
we
definitely
want
to
have
you
so
I'm
gonna.
Let
you
guys
know
about
that.
The
the
influence
that
you
guys
have
so
my
first
initiative
this
is
before
I
was
on
the
board
when
I
was
18
years
old
same
age
as
you
guys,
I
went
into
my
principal
at
Westbrook,
then
was
Bill
Daniels
I
told
him.
Q
Q
A
contract
ready
and
available
for
me
he
said,
let
me
think
about
it.
Sat
me
down
in
his
office
start
making
some
phone
calls
and
it
needs
to
say
there
was
about
eight
students
that
all
received
contracts
at
the
time
of
graduation
and
that's
an
18
year
old
version
of
me.
You
guys
a
lot
smarter
than
me.
You
guys
got
a
bigger
platform,
so
I
just
want
to
pay
it
forward
for
the
things
that
I
thought
about
doing
when
I
was
your
age
and
letting
you
guys
know
the
power
that
you
have
today.
G
I
have
a
question:
it's
not
about
becoming
an
educator,
but
why
do
you
think
that
the
district
has
like
specifically
us?
Why
do
we
have
a
problem
with
finding
Educators
for
our
schools?
Well,.
Q
As
a
nation,
it's
a
nationwide
issue,
I
mean,
and
it's
probably
because
of
the
different
meanings
to
make
money.
As
you
guys
mentioned
Sam.
You
mentioned
your
presentation
earlier
that
trying
to
find
a
different
industry
in
a
petroleum-based
industry.
Well,
a
bunch
of
our
Educators
have
choose
to
take
that
pathway.
Well,
we
can
call
if
we're
a
starting
educator
makes
fifty
thousand
dollars.
Q
But
if
you
have
an
engineering
degree
well,
you're
looking
around
a
hundred
thousand
dollars,
you
know
so
for
the
value
of
what
the
education
and
the
return
of
investment
is,
it
seems
like
they
create
a
Pathways
and
so
in
the
state
of
Texas
and
around
the
country.
Of
course,
people
are
choosing
to
kind
of
run
where
the
best
dollar
is
especially
our
zero
to
files.
Q
T
Excuse
me:
I
had
black
history
this
week,
so
your
question
regarding
What
do
teachers
and
I'm
Charisma
Papillon
I'm
an
I'm,
an
elementary
principal
here
in
Beaumont
ISD.
Thank
you,
Mr
Lewis.
So
when
you
are
working
at
an
elementary
level,
the
primary
grades
traditionally
pre-k
through
second
grade
many
times,
you
have
those
teachers
that
receive
what's
called
self-contained,
certifications
and
they're
able
to
teach
any
subject
because
they
usually
teach
all
of
their
students
all
subjects.
Now
when
they
get
a
little
older
third.
Fourth,
fifth
grade,
it
depends
on
the
campus.
T
The
campus
can
be
what's
called
departmentalized,
where
you
may
have
a
teacher
that
teaches
maybe
Math
and
Science,
and
then
the
other
teacher
teaches
maybe
social
studies
and
reading.
So
it
just
really
depends.
There
are
some
campuses
that
still
self-contained
through
fifth
grade,
so
it
really
just
depends.
But
now,
as
spec
the
State
Board
of
educator
certification,
you
can
look
at
the
different
options
that
they
have,
and
so
you
can,
you
know.
Sometimes
they
have
elementary
mathematics
might
go
fourth
through
eighth
grade,
and
so
you
might
major
in
math.
T
So
it
just
really
depends
if
you
want
to
stick
with
a
certain
subject,
if
you're
strong
in
a
certain
subject,
you
could
go
that
right
route
and
end
up
teaching
older
grades,
or
you
can
also
go
where
my
certification
I
have
I,
have
a
few,
but
the
one
that
I,
initially
graduated
and
I
started
teaching
with
was
what's
called
interdisciplinary
studies
and
it
was
grades
first
through
eighth
grade
and
I
could
teach
any
subject
but
I
specialized
in
reading
and
math.
T
E
How
could
y'all
make
a
way
to
make
us
interested
in
actually
coming
back
to
be
an
educator
for
BISD,
because
right
now
we
only
hear
the
negatives
about
BISD,
the
parents,
don't
hear
negatives.
Kids
only
hear
negatives.
T
T
Just
if
you
go
to
Lamar
when
it's
time
for
you
to
do
your
internship
or
your
student
teaching
you'll
be
placed
in
a
on
a
campus
in
the
district
and
so
basically
exposure
coming
to
see
what
we
have
to
offer.
Bisd
has
great
packages
to
offer
our
new
teachers.
We
also
you
know,
do
things
to
make
sure
that
we
get
the
best
of
the
best.
We
offer
grow
your
own
programs.
We
offer
the
opportunity
to
be
an
adjunct
educator
here
in
the
district,
and
we
still
support
you
throughout
your
process.
T
So
BISD
I've
been
here
for
20
years
and
it's
a
great
place
to
work,
but
basically
exposure-
and
you
know
you
guys-
are
BISD
students
for
the
most
part,
I
think
someone
might
attend
Legacy,
but
at
the
end
of
the
day,
bic
is
great
place
to
be
it's
a
great
place
to
be
and
I
think,
just
the
exposure
and
asking
your
team
teachers
questions
about
why
it
is
that
they
work
for
BISD
and
I
guarantee
you
they'll
they'll,
be
able
to
tell
you
some
great
things.
B
All
right,
thank
you
all
very
much
for
that.
If
anybody
else
has
any
comments,
they'd
like
to
make
before
the
end
of
the
meeting,
all
right,
everybody
so
March
6th
at
four
o'clock,
we
will
see
y'all
there.
Y'all
have
a
good
night.
