A
Good
evening,
everyone
thank
you
for
joining
us
here
for
the
beaverton
school
district
budget
committee
meeting
here
on
may
18
2022,
I'm
heidi
edwards
chairing
our
budget
committee
this
year
and
I
want
to
start
with
a
couple
of
opening
remarks
and
hand
it
over
to
superintendent
don
graudin.
For
a
few
words.
B
Thank
you,
chair
edwards,
welcome
budget
committee
and
all
those
folks
that
are
out
there
watching.
The
first
thing,
I'd
like
to
say,
is
just
to
thank
all
of
you
and
the
voters
of
beaverton
for
the
passage
of
our
bond
last
night.
B
It
really
emphasized
how
this
community
has
prioritized
education
in
the
past
and
currently
so
just
it's
going
to
make
big
differences
for
students
and
want
to
thank
you
so
much
for
prioritizing
this
bond.
Also.
I
want
to
thank
the
school
board
for
having
the
foresight
to
go
out
and
place
this
capital
construction
bond
on
the
ballot,
and
this
is
a
budget
committee,
and
please
know,
but
by
doing
so
and
having
it
passed,
it's
going
to
have
implications
on
future
budgets
in
the
future.
B
Knowing
that
now
we
have
funds
that
are
going
to
help
ensure
the
safety
and
environments
of
our
students
to
be
in
quality
learning
environments
to
be
safe,
and
so
it's
it's
gonna
have
implication
for
years
to
come,
and
I
could
go
on
and
on
about
some
of
the
people
that
are
on
this
screen
right
now.
B
The
work,
the
sweat
the
hard
hard
tiers
that
they
put
into
having
this
passed
and
just
want
to
thank
you
from
the
bottom
of
my
heart
for
making
a
difference
for
all
the
children
and
staff
in
the
beaverton
school
district,
and
I
just
want
to
also
thank
especially
our
aboard
and
budget
committee
members
who
make
up
our
budget
committee
for
being
here
being

tonight,
taking
time
away
from
your
families
to
prioritize
this,
and
especially
a
big
shout
out
to
our
business
department,
mike
jessica
and
all
the
folks
that
are
supporting
you.
B
A
Thank

voters

2022
budget

F
A

budget
committee
minutes
from

one
susan

E
I
I
A
Heidi
aye
yay
zone,
seven
tom.
A
And
lisa
yay.
Thank
you
all
right.
Moving
forward,
so
we've
approved
the
meeting
minutes
from
our
last
meeting.
We
do
want
to
review
the
public
comment
from
that
meeting
and
we
had
no
additional
comments
received,
but
we
want
to
go
through
and
read
the
comments.
The
public
comment
we
had
that
we
took
at
the
end
of
the
meeting
and
then
we'll
have
somebody
from
the
cabinet
respond
to
each
of
those
questions.
I
believe
we
have
eight
total
comments,
so
the
f
or
questions.
A
The
first
question
was
with
respect
to
investment
in
class
size
and
if
a
student's
enrollment
didn't
drop
this
year,
is
it
true
that
the
student
student
teacher
ratio
would
increase.
F
F
Because
of
this
and
the
experiences
that
we
had
during
the
2021
year,
the
the
budget
was
built
with
a
teacher
hold
back
of
one
to
three
percent.
If
the
enrollment
had
come
in
as
projected,
we
would
have
been
able
to
allocate
additional
teachers
from
the
holdback.
A
F
So
when
we
were
looking
at
the
state
data
we're
unable
to
match
it
to
what
we
expect
we
are
experiencing
here
in
beaverton,
so
in
the
2223
proposed
budget
document,
we
used
a
weighted
average
for
the
state
data
to
macular
accurately
represent
the
average
class
size
throughout
the
state.
F
A
You
our
third
question
from
our
public
comments
of
the
last
meeting:
there's
12
million
in
sr
funds
that
are
unspent.
J
Good
evening,
kuromi
deputy
superintendent,
the
district
primarily
at
this
point
in
time,
is
reserving
those
12
million
dollars
to
allocate
for
any
ongoing
needs
that
we
may
have
caused
by
the
pandemic.
A
Thank
you,
deputy
superintendent
made
and
number
four
our
fourth
question
from
last
time:
have
you
notified
positions
funded
by
s
or
funds,
that
their
position
is
a
potentially
temporary,
or
are
you
planning
to
fund
them
over
from
them
in
other
ways,.
K
L
A
M
Yeah,
thank
you,
chair
edwards,
david
williams,
administrator
for
strategic
initiatives,
helping
to
lead
our
team
working
on
the
house
bill
4030,
grant
program.
We
are
in
the
process
of
preparing
a
grant
application
for
these
funds.
Our
estimated
allocation
from
the
state
is
5.1
million
dollars.
From
this
grant
program.
Funds
are
one-time,
non-recurring
funds.
The
grant
is
for
the
purposes
of
recruitment
and
retention,
particularly
for
positions
affected
by
workforce
shortages
and
for
diversification
of
the
workforce.
M
A
Okay,
thank
you
david,
an
excellent
question
number
six:
how
has
the
budget
evolved
over
the
last
two
years
to
support
stated
diversity
and
equity
goals.
E
E
My
name's
pat
mccreary,
you
see
him
pronouns,
identify
as
white
and
I
serve
in
the
office
of
equity
and
inclusion.
Over
the
last
two
years,
more
dollars
have
been
allocated
to
support
our
goals,
which
will
be
outlined
on
the
next
question.
The
increase
of
over
eight
hundred
thousand
dollars
has
funded
an
additional
staff
member,
a
co-administrator
for
equity
and
inclusion
in
the
office,
and
the
trainings
and
seminars
listed
in
comment.
Eight,
as
well
as
continued
efforts
to
support
the
existing
equity-focused
work
that
we
have
been
doing.
A
Great
and
and
moving
on,
we'll
move
into
question
number
seven:
what
are
the
measurable
goals
around
equity
that
involve
the
budget.
E
Thank
you
happy
to
take
this
one
as
well,
in
addition
to
the
goals
that
are
stated
within
our
policy
jbb
on
educational
equity,
about
reducing
the
predictability
of
student,
success
based
on
race,
ethnicity,
color,
religion,
national
origin,
immigration,
status,
language,
family
economics,
age,
culture,
geographic
location,
mobility,
gender
and
sexual
orientation,
gender
identity,
gender
expression,
disability
or
initial
proficiencies.
E
We
also
have
goals
that
are
most
most
recently
outlined
in
our
2021-2022
strategic
plan
report,
with
an
emphasis
on
the
following
sections.
E
Foundation
of
our
work
is
growing
our
capacity
and
anti-bias
and
anti-racist
leadership
and
changing
bias
in
racist
district
and
school
practices,
for
example,
selecting
and
consistently
implementing
high
quality,
culturally
and
linguistically
responsive
curriculum,
identifying
and
implementing
instructional
best
practices
that
require
students
to
engage
in
deep
thinking
and
connect,
students,
cultures
and
languages
and
life
experiences
to
what
they're
learning
in
school
and
providing
a
safe
and
engaging
environment
for
all.
Students
that
integrates
behavioral
health
and
wellness
and
confronts
and
addresses
bias
and
racism.
A
E
Thank
you
I'll.
Take
this
one
as
well,
in
addition
to
a
commitment
on
our
superintendent's
part,
to
ensure
that
our
district
leadership
participates
in
a
coaching
for
educational
equity
seminar
that
allows
them
to
come
back
and
support
our
work
in
district.
The
proposed
budget
includes
funding
for
groups
of
staff
to
participate
in
one
of
three
two-day
collaborative
learning.
Seminars
focused
on
race
equity.
The
intention
of
that
training
is
to
be
required
for
and
experienced
by
all
staff
over
a
period
of
time.
A
Thank
you,
pat,
and
thank
you
for
your
work
and
your
team's
work
to
address
dia
and
all
the
good
things
that
come
out
of
of
us
recognizing
the
diverse
population
of
our
community
and
our
students.
So
moving
on
to
our
that
that
completes
the
the
questions
or
comments
that
we
received
from
the
last
meeting
and
want
to
move
over
to
jessica
and
have
her
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
adjustments
to
the
proposed
budget.
F
Thank
you,
chair
edwards.
There
was
a
two-page
document
that
was
included
in
the
meeting
materials.
Usually
this
details,
any
adjustments
that
we
have
from
the
proposed
budget
to
the
recommended,
approved
budget
by
fund
and
appropriation
level.
A
Changes,
thank
you
that
was
simple,
very
simple
moving
ahead.
Then
I
want
to
open
it
up
to
the
budget
committee
for
final
comments
that
you
may
have,
and
if
you
want
to
just
chime
in
or
raise
a
hand,
don't
need
to
raise
a
hand,
go
ahead
and
chime
in.
G
I
just
want
to
start
by
thanking
the
voters
for
passing
the
the
bond
last
night.
That's
an
incredible
amount
of
trust
in
our
education
or
our
educational
facilities
and
staff,
and
that
is
going
to
do
an
amazing
amount
of
good,
not
just
for
the
future
of
our
facilities,
but
also
for
this
budget
here
and
future
budgets,
because
what
it
does
it
allows
us
to
prioritize
dollars
into
the
general
fund
and
towards
staff
members.
G
When
we
look
at
that
pie,
chart
where
we
can
see,
I
think
it's
over
85
percent
of
our
budget
goes
towards
staff
that
that
is
allowed
by
the
passage
of
this
bond,
which
then
can
take
those
funds
and
focus
on
our
our
facilities
needs.
So
that's
just
huge,
and
I
want
a
big
thank
you
to
all
of
the
voters
out
there
who
helped
to
prove
that
and
make
that
a
reality
for
us.
G
I
also
appreciate
this
document
in
front
of
us.
I
just
want
to
comment
on
how
clear
it
is
how
easy
it
is
to
understand
some
of
the
informational
sections.
Some
of
the
breakdowns
do
the
work
for
you
that
in
the
past
sometimes
you'd
have
to
go
through
and
collate
and
look
back
and
forth
and
a
big
thank
you
to
associate
superintendent
scofield
for
making
that
happen
and
for
being
there
to
answer
all
of
our
questions
and
patiently
walk
us
through
all
the
intricacies
of
this
budget.
G
I
think
this
is
my
my
fifth
budget
year
and
I'm
still
learning
and
understanding
better
how
these
budgets
work,
but
I
will
say
this
is
one
of
the
clearest
documents
I've
seen.
I
want
to
highlight
just
a
couple
of
the
investments.
There's
a
lot
of
great
investments
in
this
budget,
but
the
investment
for
class
size
of
seven
million
dollars
with
an
additional
amount
targeted
for
our
middle
schools.
I
think
is
excellent,
and
I
really
appreciate
that
support.
G
G
So
if
you
look
at
the
that's
147
additional
positions,
if
we
were
able
to
hire
in
what
we
have
in
this
budget,
so
it's
not
just
additional
positions
but
the
ability
to
hire
folks,
which
was
quite
difficult
last
year
due
the
pandemic.
If
we're
able
to
do
that
next
year,
that
will
have
a
measurable
impact
on
the
district.
G
We
have
been,
I
want
to
say
creeping
along,
but
I
don't
know
if
it's
quite
creepy
and
a
little
faster
than
that
every
year,
we're
able
to
add
two
early
childhood
education,
preschool
class
schools
to
the
list
of
schools
that
do
preschool
in
our
district
and
I'm
so
excited
to
see
another
two
schools
here.
G
If
we
keep
this
up
pretty
soon,
we'll
have
a
district
where
there
will
be
a
lot
of
preschool
opportunity
for
our
students
and
and
that's
such
a
key
investment
that
really
allows
us
to
support
our
students
throughout
their
whole
educational
experience,
if
they're
able
to
start
with
preschool.
So
I
just
want
to
call
that
out,
because
I
think
it
continues
to
happen
in
our
budgets
and
it
almost
becomes
routine
at
a
certain
point,
but
it's
so
special
and
important.
G
So
those
are
some
of
the
things
that
I'm
excited
about.
What
I'm
not
excited
about
is
you
know,
I
think
we
have
some
pretty
tough
years
coming
ahead
as
our
enrollment
declines
and
as
we
look
at
the
amount
of
funding
that
we're
receiving
from
the
state,
we
have
some
federal
funds
right
now
which
are
helping
us,
and
I
appreciate
that.
G
But
those
are
all
one-time
monies
and
in
a
couple
of
years
here,
when
we
see
those
funds
go
away,
we're
going
to
be
left
with
a
very
difficult
situation
unless
the
state
legislature
steps
in
and
provides
us
with
more
funding.
G
Looking
at
the
biennium
that
we're
currently
in,
we
saw
a
three
percent
increase
and
that's
over
two
years,
and
if
you
look
at
where
inflation
is
at
even
a
single
year,
outpaces
that
by
almost
double
so,
I
think
one
thing
I'm
looking
ahead
and
I'm
looking
at
this
budget
document
and
thinking
about
future
years.
There's
a
lot
of
advocacy.
G
O
Sure
edwards,
yes,
I
too
will
be
supporting
this
budget
tonight
and
I
do
believe
as
a
as
a
this
will
be
my
seventh
budget.
A
budget
should
be
a
reflection
of
our
values,
and
I
see
this
reflecting
my
values
as
as
a
board
member,
a
lot
of
the
things
that
I
was
going
to
point
out.
My
fellow
budget
committee
member
colette
already
pointed
out,
but
I
appreciate
that
we
are
investing
in
our
students
by
giving
them
the
supports
that
we
need
at
this
at
this
time.
O
This
has
been
a
difficult
transition
year
for
our
staff.
It
has
been
difficult
on
our
staff.
It
has
been
difficult
on
our
students,
it's
been
difficult
on
our
families
and
we
are
finding
out
every
month
what
kind
of
supports,
whether
it
be
social
or
emotional
or
mental
health,
and
the
kind
of
things
that
we
need
to
do
to
help
our
students
feel
confident
and
moving
forward
in
their
education.
O
After
this
couple
of
years
of
of
being
a
different
ways
that
we
have
had
to
approach
their
their
learning,
and
I
do
believe
this
budget
reflects-
and
I
will
also
reflect
that.
It
is
with
great
confidence
when
you
are
able
to
not
have
to
cut
anything
from
a
budget
and
instead
are
able
to
add,
because
I've
been
on
both
ends
of
that,
and
it
is
much
better
when
we
can
quit.
O
We
can
keep
investing
wisely
in
our
students
and
in
our
staff,
and
I
too
want
to
thank
our
community
for
supporting
our
bond,
so
we're
able
to
focus
the
general
funds
money
that
we
have
and
the
places
where
it
needs
to
be
with
our
students
and
our
staff
and
have
that
bond
to
focus
on
on
building
and
maintaining
safe
and
healthy
schools.
So,
thank
you
so
much
to
the
beaverton
community
for
entrusting
that
into
us,
but
I
will
be
supporting
this
budget
tonight.
A
I
know
in
past
years,
when
we've
been
in
person
and
maybe
even
when
we
weren't
that
we
each
had
an
opportunity
to
say
something,
simple
or
not
say
anything
at
all,
but
just
sort
of
that
approval
or
opposition
to
the
budget.
So
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
I'm
making
time
and
space
for
anybody
who
wants
to
respond
to
you
know
what
their
thoughts
are
about
this
budget
and
approval
or
we're
not
approval
of
it.
N
I'll
chime
in
real
quick,
I
echo
a
board
member
time
check
and
colette
said,
but
I
just
want
to
thank
the
budget
team,
the
budget
office
and
for
the
for
the
document.
I
thought
it
was
awesome
wonderful
last
year
and
it
just
keeps
getting
better,
and
I
appreciate
that-
and
I
also
want
to
thank
superintendent
grotting
for
his
service
to
the
district.
I
I
It
made
a
lot
of
sense
in
how
money
was
being
appropriated.
I
was
happy
to
see
that
things
like
for
drug
abuse,
there's
going
to
be
an
additional
staff
for
substance
use
for
homelessness.
There
are,
you
know
there
are
money
being
appropriated
for
that,
and
I
echo
tom's
comment
about
advocacy.
I
think
we
will
need
to
do
a
lot
of
advocacy
in
coming
years
because
our
assets
fund
is
going
to
finish
it's
a
one-time
fund,
but
the
need
will
still
be
there.
So
I
think
that's
coming
down
the
road.
I
We
will
have
to
all
work
together
and
try
to
get
more
money
for
our
district
so
that
we
can
keep
the
quality
of
education
to
the
best
and
see
look
for
ways
how
we
can
fund
for
new
grants
and
stuff
that
our
budget
cannot
fund.
You
know
for
talented
and
gifted
students.
I
thought
that
there
should
be
more
money.
Maybe
we
can
look
for
grants
for
those
students
and
all
work
together
and
make
sure
that
we
can
give
a
high
quality
of
education
for
each
and
every
student
in
our
district.
H
I'm
not
gonna
be
repetitive,
except
to
say
thank
you.
Well,
I
will
be
repetitive.
I
take
that
back.
Thank
you
to
the
business
administrative
staff
for
putting
together
yet
another
amazing,
straightforward,
transparent
budget.
Very
much
appreciated
appreciate
the
entire
staff
in
the
beaver
school
district,
including
our
leader,
don
grotting.
I
want
to
thank
him
for
his
great
leadership
in
our
district
and
also
look
forwarding
to
to
voting
yes
on
this.
C
You
already
have
a
couple
comments:
yeah,
the
the
budget
document
is
always
really
amazing.
It
just
gets
better
every
year
and
I
love
it.
It's
so
walk
through.
C
You
can
see
exactly
where
the
funds
are,
so
I
think
it's
incredibly
transparent,
so
I
feel
really
proud
to
be
part
of
a
you
know,
a
team
with
everyone
here
to
be
able
to
share
that
with
the
community
to
know
exactly
where
we're
putting
our
funds
and
our
and
our
focus-
and
I
was
like
I
know
a
couple
years
ago
when
we
first
started
early
education.
I
think
it's
really
amazing
kind
of
reiterating
what
tom
said,
but
two
more
schools
added
to
early
childhood
development.
I
think
it's
really
amazing
and
strategically.
C
I
think
it's
a
strong,
very
intelligent
move,
because
we
try
to
eliminate
the
equity
gap
and
give
wrap-around
services
for
those
who
can't
afford
it
and
you
know
and
have
access
to
it.
So
I
think
this,
you
know
we'll
pay
huge
dividends
in
the
future
and
I'm
really
proud
to
be
part
of
the
district.
That's
a
charge
ahead
of
that
adding
you
know
two
schools
every
year
and
then
someday
all
the
schools
might
have
that.
C
D
Well,
everybody
has
said
such
amazing
things
about
the
budget,
and
the
only
thing
I'm
going
to
add
is
that
this
budget,
just
like
the
passage
of
the
bond,
reflects
our
commitment
to
ensuring
a
good
quality
education
for
our
students
and
a
good
quality
environment
for
our
students
to
get
their
education
as
well.
So
I
am
happy
to
vote
yes.
So
thank
you
to
everyone
who
put
this
together.
I
appreciate
all
the
welcoming
your
service.
I
will
be
putting
rest
tonight.
D
A
A
And
I'll
go
ahead
and
jump
in
and
just
mention
how
I'm
so
impressed
how,
over
the
years,
this
budget
process
has
evolved
in
this
multi-year
process.
A
The
participation
of
the
public,
because
it's
not
just
those
of
us
on
this
committee
and
those
who
work
for
the
school
district
who
fed
into
this
budget,
was
the
the
input
whether
it
was
survey,
input
or
community
feedback.
That
really,
you
know,
was
the
foundation
for
a
lot
of
this
and
has
been
for
years.
A
I
you
know
I'm
just
reflecting
on
where
we
were
seven
eight
years
ago,
and
I
you
know
year
to
year
to
year
that
social
emotional
component
of
our
educational
system
has
become
more
and
more
important
and
how
we're
serving
students
and
our
families
and
communities.
So
I'm
I'm
grateful
that
the
school
district
is
investing
in
that
the
social,
emotional
staffing
as
well
as
class
size,
our
teachers
and,
and
you
know
our
staff
what
they
are
doing
to
support
the
kids
in
our
community.
A
But
I'd
also
just
encourage
folks,
aside
from
you,
know,
making
sure
that
we
are
vocal
with
our
our
local
and
state
legislators
to
continue
to
know
that
this
is
a
participatory
opportunity
for
folks
to
be
involved
in,
just
as
we
had
a
couple
of
folks
who
submitted
questions
and
comments
in
our
last
meeting,
just
really
encouraged
that
kind
of
activity
so
that
we
can
make
this
the
budget
that
reflects
our
values
in
the
community
and
and
what
we
want
for
students
in
the
community.
A
P
P
One
thing:
when
we
talk
about
schools,
we've
talked
a
lot
about
class
size,
which
is
so
wonderful
to
see
that
as
an
emphasis
for
the
district,
but
I
noticed
a
small
part
in
the
in
the
budget
document
that
looked
at
energy
and
resource
conference
conservation
and
looks
like
the
district
is
doing
an
amazing
job
and
anything
that
we
can
save
in
that
area.
Not
only
is
it
good
for
our
planet,
but
it's
good
for
the
overall
budget
and
allows
us
to
put
those
dollars
toward
student
learning
so
anyway.
P
I
just
wanted
to
notice
that
that
that's
a
great
part
in
the
budget
document
to
read
over
and
thanks
to
all
of
that
goes
into
making
sure
that
we're
paying
attention
to
resource
conference
con
conservation,
okay,
so
thank
you.
A
Great
point:
thank
you,
lisa,
okay,
so
as
not
to
put
everybody
on
the
spot,
unless
you
are
really
eager
to
say
something,
I
want
to
go
ahead
and
move
into
our
next
agenda
item,
which
is
the
approval
of
the
budget
and
tax
levies,
and
so
looking
for
a
motion
for
approval
of
those,
I
think
jason.
Maybe.
N
H
A
Second,
thank
you,
susan.
I
sort
of
want
to
joke
with
you
jason
and
say:
can
you
repeat
that
again,
but
I
won't
we
have
it
in
writing.
Thank
you
so
jason
for
the
motion
season
for
the
second
we're
gonna,
do
a
vote
by
zone
and
committee
members
so
zone,
one
yay
or
nay,
susan
yay,
jason,.
I
A
Becky
hi
and
heidi
yay
zone,
seven
tom.
G
A
And
lisa,
and
with
that
we
have
the
approval
of
the
budget
and
tax
levies
for
this
fiscal
year's
budget,
this
upcoming
fiscal
year.
So
thank
you,
committee,
members
with
that
said.
We
want
to
hand
it
over
to
dawn
for
our
superintendent
grotting
for
a
few
closing
remarks.
If
I'm
not
mistaken,
this
is
one
of
your
last
budget.
This
is
your
last
budget
meeting
superintendent
right.
B
Yeah,
first
of
all,
chair
edwards,
I
want
to
thank
you
for
your
leadership
in
in
chairing
this
committee
and
then
just
to
everybody
on
this
screen.
The
children
of
beaverton
are
in
good
hands
with
folks,
like
you
all
so
you're
doing
great
things
for
kids.
B
When
I
look
back
at
maybe
five
or
six
of
the
significant
decisions
I
made
we'll
be
in
here
in
the
district,
one
of
them
is
going
to
be
going
out
and
hiring
assistant
superintendent
of
business
services
mike
scofield.
When
we
hired
him.
I
think
the
district
was
in
a
situation
where
we
were.
We
were
not
being
trusted
by
our
community
and
he's
come
in
and
empowered
his
staff,
and
he
has
provided
financial
stability
to
the
district.
B
He
has
instilled.
Trust
continues
to
instill
trust,
and
I
don't
know
if
you
noticed
today
mike
has
not
talked
very
much,
and
that,
because
is
because
he
empowers
his
staff
to
be
leaders
and
jessica
has
done
a
phenomenal
job.
He
empowers
his
staff
to
do
phenomenal
jobs
and
that's
what
you
want
to
do
is,
as
a
leader
is
making
sure
that
hopefully
you're
leaving
the
place
in
a
better
place.
B
So
the
other
thing
I
want
to
say
I
was
on
with
seven
large
school
district
superintendents
and
they
were
all
talking
about
what
a
show-
and
you
can
imagine
the
word
that
goes
in
front
of
show.
Their
budget
committee
meetings
have
been
been
they've
been
controversial.
B
There
they've
been
just
a
a
lot
of
strife
in
them
and
just
for
this
budget
committee
to
hold
us
accountable,
ask
the
difficult
questions
but
being
able
to
converse
and
then
for
our
folks
to
be
able
to
answer
you
in
a
transparent
ways,
and
we
do
not
do
everything
right
at
the
district
office.
B
We
make
mistakes,
we'll
continue
to
make
mistakes,
but
I
think,
as
long
as
we
try
to
be
honest-
and
you
know
you
know
that
we're
really
trying
to
do
the
best
we
can
for
the
kids,
so
just
from
the
bottom
of
my
heart.
Thank
you
for
making
a
difference
for
the
kids
in
the
beaverton
school
district.
A
You
will
be
missed.
We
still
have
you
for
a
little
bit,
but
you
will
be
missed
so
with
no
further
ado,
I'd
like
to
move
forward
and
call
for
emotion.
Well
do
I
need
to
call
for
a
motion
to
adjourn
the
meeting
or
I
can
just
adjourn
the
meeting
so
I'll
move
forward,
709
adjoining
tonight's
budget
committee
meeting.
Thank
you.
Everyone
who
participated
and
have
a
wonderful,
sunny
rest
of
the
week.
