B
The
other
thing
that
we
good
morning
and
the
other
thing
that
we
were
able
to
do
was
to
walk
with
the
newly
appointed
leader,
Ajay
tavedi,
we're
so
excited
about
Ajay
and
his
leadership.
B
You
know
to
see:
Early
College
starting
to
take
root,
to
see
students
in
their
sophomore
year
really
starting
to
learn
about
careers.
There's
a
partnership
with
a
non-profit,
build
that
takes
place
in
that
10th
and
11th
grade
and,
as
such,
students
are
able
to
learn
entrepreneurship,
the
principles
of
it
and
these
students
have
decided
to
they
want
to
go
into
business,
and
so,
as
part
of
that
they're
designing
business
plans
all
the
way
to
what
their
project
will
be,
how
they'll
sell
it.
B
The
market
plan
that
they'll
design
and
then
there's
a
competition,
and
so
two
of
the
students
that
were
part
of
the
program
actually
scored
in
the
top
three
places.
So
it
was
just
wonderful
to
see
students
engaged
and
to
see
applied,
learning,
I
think
that's
what
we
really
want
to
get
back
to
in
Boston.
Public
Schools
is
strong
academics,
so
students
have
those
skills
for
early
college,
but
also
marry
that
with
an
understanding
of
what
it
takes
in
career.
B
How
to
be
able
to
go
out
to
have
the
tangible
skills
to
be
able
to
go
in
whether
it's
start,
your
own
business
or
whether
it
is
to
join
another
business
or
health
career,
which
is
also
possible
here
technology.
These
will
be
the
types
of
Pathways
that
the
mayor
and
I
are
committed
to
building
throughout
the
city
at
our
high
schools.
It's
just
a
wonderful
morning.
Okay,.
B
Thank
you
for
the
question,
so
a
few
things
I
think
one
is
we
really?
We
can't
really
comment
on
how
those
Figures
were
arrived.
We
believe
and
we're
in
dialogue
right
now
with
the
globe
on
it,
but
we
believe
that
they
included
some
other
things
around
pensions,
things
that
we
don't
typically
include
as
part
of
our
per
capita
when
we
when
we
account
for
spending.
B
It
was
also
based
on
sort
of
the
last
four
years
and
I
think
you
know
when
we
look
at
BPS,
certainly
when
I've
looked
back
at
it
not
having
been
here,
but
there
were
some
deep
Investments
that
needed
to
be
made
that
were
here
such
as
nurses
and
social
workers,
post-pandemic
Librarians
in
our
schools
really
part
of
the
quality
guarantee,
and
so
there
there
were
some
much
needed
and
long
overdue
Investments
that
were
made
to
bring
our
schools
really
current
in
in
the
ways
that
they
need
to
be,
but
certainly
in
the
work
that
we're
doing
right
now.
B
Looking
at
all
aspects
of
VPS,
we
always
want
to
be
fiscally
responsible
in
everything
we
do
and
I
I
think
some
of
the
changes
that
we
will
be
making
in
inclusion
for
the
district
in
expanding
native
and
bilingual
education
in
the
district.
These
will
have
cost
savings
advantage
in
the
sense
of
Transportation
opening
up
choice
for
families.
B
The
last
two
and
a
half
with
the
pandemic
and
all
the
students
have
needed
for
recovery.
So
now
that
we're
kind
of
coming
through
that
we'll
do
some
evaluation
of
that
to
see
and
the
strong
academic
programming
that
we're
building
in
in
every
classroom
with
tier
one
is
as
a
confidence
that
we're
going
to
see
things
like
test
scores
rise.
A
I'll
just
Echo
that
we
we
won't
ever
shy
away
from
investing
in
what's
most
important
for
our
city
and
our
young
people.
The
school
system
is
at
the
heart
of
everything
that
we
are
trying
to
do
we're
in
a
in
a
time
in
our
economy
and
Recovery
across
the
country,
where
Workforce
issues
and
challenges
filling
roles
and
finding
Talent
are
at
the
top
of
mind
for
every
organization.
This
is
what
is
going
to
be
the
defining
feature
for
cities
moving
forward,
and
we
know
that
Boston
is
already
home
to
the
world's
Premier
Talent.
A
Our
young
people
right
here
in
our
communities
as
as
we
saw
earlier
today,
have
the
the
skills,
the
the
hearts,
the
interests
to
Dive
Right
into
contributing
to
our
communities
and
we're
going
to
make
every
investment
that
they
deserve.
We
also
right
now
are
in
a
bit
of
a
building
period
for
BPS.
It
has
been
a
number
of
years
of
tremendous
instability
now
out
only
because
of
the
pandemic,
but
because
of
so
many
different
transitions
in
Staffing
in
the
political
leadership
in
District
leadership,
and
so
this
is
a
period
where
step
one
was
build.
A
The
strongest
possible
All-Star
team
we
could
find
I
am
so
grateful
that
the
superintendent
is
part
of
that
agreed
to
come
back
to
BPS
and
has
built
out
her
team
making
some
changes
in
the
the
way
that
we
are
focusing
on
different
issues.
So
we
really
get
a
hold
of
problems
and
challenges
that
have
been
affecting
our
district
for
in
in
some
cases
decades,
but
we're
always
right
underneath
the
surface
and
it's
going
to
take
resources.
A
The
extracurriculars
Youth
Sports
and
arts
and
wraparound
supports
that
our
young
people
need
before
and
after
school
and
then
social
and
emotional
supports
we
are
there.
The
the
road
map
is
set,
we're
putting
all
the
pieces
in
place.
It's
going
to
take
a
bit
of
matching
the
level
of
and
scale
of
what
needs
to
be
done,
but
we're
up
for
the
challenge
and
and
see
the
steps
already
starting
to
make
a
big
difference
for
our
schools.
B
So
certainly
I
think
you
know
when
we
see,
at
least
on
on
surface,
that
calculation,
it's
the
combination
of
enrollment
drop
and
then
you
know,
increase
inflation.
I.
Do
think
that
this
is
something
the
mayor
and
I
are
working
on
as
part
of
the
green
New
Deal,
which
is
to
you
know
this
assurance
that
we
want
our
students
in
facilities
for
which
they
are
going
to
get
the
quality
education
that
we're
committing
to.
B
And
for
that
to
happen
we
do
have
some
schools
for
whom
the
facility
itself
doesn't
lend
itself
to
that.
So
consolidation
will
be
a
part
of
this
mergers.
We
just
had
two
school
committee
votes,
one
on
the
Sumner
filbert
and
the
the
shaw
Taylor,
which
is
you
know,
I,
think
an
indicator
of
the
process
that
we
use
the
healthy
one
this
year
and
that
will
be
more
to
come.
B
We
have
to
look
deeply
to
make
sure
that,
in
our
facilities,
condition
report
and
our
Master
facilities
are,
you
know,
design
that
we
will
be
doing
for
this
spring
summer
and
next
fall,
that
that
part
of
that
is
really
identifying
the
buildings
that
we
can
make
into
the
quality
buildings
that
are
going
to
give
that
21st
century
education.
That
includes
building
new
buildings.
I
mean
I,
said
to
the
students
in
here
how
fortunate
we
are
to
have
a
mayor.
A
I,
just
I
mean
I
I
will
defer
to
the
superintendent
on
the
technical
details
of
what
goes
into
making
sure
there's
Apples
to
Apples
comparisons,
just
for
the
sake
of
accuracy,
but
I,
don't
think.
That's
the
right
metric
to
judge
the
success
of
our
district
or
whether
we're
doing
right
by
our
young
people
we
need
to
put
in
whatever
it
takes
to
make
this
the
best
possible
School
District
that
we
can
be
the
best
possible
Urban,
School
District
in
the
country.
I
am
committed
to
that.
I
have
my
kids
in
the
schools.
A
We
are
going
to
make
it
happen
and
we're
making
progress
towards
that
every
single
day
and
I
do
want
to
push
back
on
you
know.
Sometimes
people
will
say
well,
don't
you
need
to
do
consolidation
in
order
to
save
costs.
The
cost
piece
of
it
should
never
be
driving
as
the
primary
decision
Point.
What
we're
doing
for
the
long-term
future
of
our
school
district?
It
is
about
what
Will
best
serve
our
young
people
and
how
do
we
connect
them
with
every
opportunity?
A
The
truth
is
that
we
do
have
some
very,
very
tiny
schools
where
it
will
be.
Sometimes
one
class
per
grade
in
a
building
a
small
building
and
you
simply
cannot
sustain
the
level
of
opportunities
that
our
young
people
deserve
when
it
is
so
small
whether
it
is
sports
teams
where
they'll
be
able
to
fully
field
a
whole
team
or
other
activities
or
supports
to
have
that
the
level
of
scale
where
everyone
has
what
they
need.
A
And
of
course
they
have
the
individual
supports
and-
and
we
never
want
to
get
too
far
on
the
other
side
of
it.
But
there
is
a
sweet
spot
that
we
need
to
be
moving
towards.
So
everyone
has
that
access
to
everything
that
we
think
is
necessary
for
our
young
people
to
thrive
in
their
whole
lives.
A
Academics
at
the
core
of
it,
according
to
the
vision
of
the
superintendent
and
then
all
of
the
other
things
that
are
also
necessary
for
their
health,
their
well-being,
their
family
connections,
their
Community
connections
and
also,
where
they're,
seeing
themselves
progress
in
their
careers.
Staying
right
here
in
the
city
of
Boston,.
E
You
agree
about
finding
that
sort
of
sweet
spot
of
what
our
school
sizes
should
look
look
like
in
the
future
as
easy
performance,
consultation
and
full
inclusion.
What
role
do
you
see
to
disable?
The
exam
school
was
fitting
into
this
picture
and
they've
just
increasing
in
size.
Obviously
they
also
bear
a
much
smaller
proportion
of
students
with
disabilities
or
multilingual
manners.
Will
there
be
a
need
to
you
know,
right-size
those
schools
or
have
them?
You
know
change
their
criteria,
so
they're
supporting
you
know
more
of
these
students
at.
E
Like
Charleston
high
are
currently
greater
numbers.
B
So
I
think
that's
all
things
that
we're
looking
at
now
I,
you
know
the
percent
of
special
education
students
at
the
exam
schools
does
grow
each
year.
I
think
what's
most
important.
Is
that
we're
working
with
each
of
the
schools
to
understand
how
to
fully
support
students
with
disabilities
same
with
our
multilingual
Learners,
so
that
you
know
both
students
and
parents
have
Choice?
That's
the
reason
for
our
visit
today,
because
Charleston
high
is
very
committed
to
doing
that
and
that's
the
work.
B
That
is,
we
go
to
all
the
different
high
schools
that
we're
working
with
now
we're
trying
to
make
them
far
more
accessible,
so
the
issue
of
accessibility
will
be.
One
will
continue
to
work
on.
You
know
there
are
also
schools
that
have
other
kinds
of
themes.
You
know
particular
themes
that
might
be
math
and
science.
B
It
could
be
the
Arts
and
for
those
too,
we're
working
on
inclusion
by
really
starting
with
tier
one
when
people
think
of
inclusion,
they
immediately
think
of
it's
about
students
with
disabilities,
it's
actually
about
all
students,
and
it's
really
about
strengthening
general
education
classrooms
and
giving
teachers
new.
Like
a
scaffolding
of
new
ideas
and
tools
of
how
to
reach
each
student
in
instruction
that
actually
makes
that
classroom
and
transforms
that
classroom
to
be
better
and
that
actually
benefits
certainly
immediately
special
education,
students
or
multilingual
learners,
but
it
also
benefits
every
student,
and
so
that's
really.
B
What's
behind
our
inclusion
and
the
historic
agreement
with
the
with
our
Union
as
proud
Partners
to
work
together
in
that
tier
one
strengthening
while
we
have
you
I,
would
love
to
to
just
put
a
plug-in
to
highlight
all
we
have
going
on
for
the
summer.
B
You
know
the
mayor
and
I
in
back
in
the
spring,
remain
committed
to
making
sure
we
were
expanding
seats
for
our
summer
programming
and
historically
2
000
additional
seats.
So
we
have
17
000
seats
for
students
and
that's
a
combination
of
programming,
that's
being
run
in
our
schools
with
non-profits
with
community-based
organizations.
It's
our
exam
School
initiative.
It
is
our
extended
year
for
our
special
education
students.
It
is
some
of
our
multilingual
learning
programming,
but
really-
and
it's
also
our
summer
jobs
on
a
top
of
the
17
000..
B
B
B
Fully,
yes,
it's
fully
inclusive
I
mean
you
can
want
to
get
some
of
sports.
Some
are
crafts,
some
are
Music,
Arts
dance,
Athletics
I
mean
it
really
ranges.
If
it's
something
you
want
to
learn,
there's
likely
a
program
for
you,
but
part
of
this
is
helping
to
make
sure
that
students
hear
about
it.
Parents
hear
about
it
and
then
they're
able
to
register
so
that
we
can
get
those
seats
filled.
E
Concerns
from
some
parents
and
I've
heard
from
people
who
are
eligible
for
low-income
housing,
they
don't
want
their
children
to
take
some
of
these
jobs
because
I
guess
the
kids
surpass
certain
income
limits
and
there's
that
fear
of
losing
those
housing
vouchers.
Has
this
been
brought
up?
You
know
to
your
office
either
of
your
offices
and
is
there
like
a
quick
in
place,
so
so
people
don't
feel
so
so
hesitant
about
planning
they're
coming
up
for
these
programs.
A
We
are
happy
to
work
through
any
individual
concerns
for
any
single
family.
You
know
there
are
some
students
who
want
to
both
have
a
summer
job
and
bring
in
that
income
and
participate
in
more
of
an
academic
enrichment
program.
A
But
we're
happy
to
have
those
one-on-one
conversations
with
anyone
and
I
think
this
is
just
a
a
reminder:
I'm,
so
I'm,
so
thrilled
and
just
there's
no
greater
happiness
than
spending
time
in
our
schools
with
our
young
people.
You
get
a
sense
of
the
value
that
families
really
are
getting
from
the
Investments
that
we're
making
all
you
have
to
do
is
step
inside
our
school
buildings.
Every
one
of
our
high
schools
is
offering
something
special,
a
career
pathway,
a
particular
connection
to
a
major
employer
and
and
we're
fighting
to
add
to
that
set
of
Partnerships.
A
Every
day
we
invite
anyone
across
the
city
who
is
interested
in
supporting
our
youth
and
and
young
people
and
their
families.
To
please
reach
out.
We
will
find
a
way
for
you
to
get
involved
and
support
whether
it
is
in
a
mentoring
role,
whether
it
is
a
larger
commitment
or
partnership
that
we
can
form.
This
is
really
going
to
be
the
backbone
of
what
Boston
can
offer
in
terms
of
how
we
make
sure
that
each
and
every
school,
each
and
every
seat
and
classroom
is
something
special.
C
C
A
Are
under
a
a
a
number
of
auditing
processes
at
any
given
moment
and
we're
still
collaborating
very
closely
with
those
who
are
independent
sources
of
of
analysis
to
make
sure
that
everything
that
we
are
doing
is
delivering
the
best
value.
Of
course,
I'm
not
saying
that
there's
any
dismissing
of
the
need
to
make
sure
that
every
dollar
stretched
as
much
as
it
can,
but
just
to
say
that
we
should
be
spending
less
for
the
sake
of
saving.
A
Money
does
a
disservice
to
not
only
the
importance
of
young
people
and
our
school
system
in
the
larger
conversation
about
who
benefits
from
a
healthy,
thriving
public
education
system.
But
we
are
also,
uniquely
in
a
period
of
building
and
setting
the
