Much
team-
I
do
have
a
message
from
our
counselor,
our
city
councilor,
mr
robinson.
He
regrets
to
inform
us
that
he
will
not
be
in
attendance
tonight.
He
will
be
celebrating
the
announcement
that
his
daughter,
lucia
robinson
griggs,
has
been
named.
The
head
basketball
coach
for
mit
in
cambridge
massachusetts.
Congratulations
to
mr
robinson
with
that
team.
I
will
now
turn
it
over
to
our.
A
F
Good
evening
school
committee
members,
the
central
office
in
the
chelsea
community,
my
name
is
catherine
anderson.
I
live
at
15
powder
house
terrace
number
three
in
summerville,
I'm
a
seventh
and
eighth
grade
special
education
liaison
at
the
brown
middle
school
and
I'm
the
vp
of
the
chelsea
teachers
union,
I'm
speaking
tonight
on
behalf
of
don
de
benigno,
our
president,
who
couldn't
make
it
this
evening
and
the
members
of
our
executive
board,
I'm
here
to
speak
in
follow-up
to
the
letter
submitted
to
the
school
committee
earlier
this
week.
F
We
understand
that
this
has
been
a
year
of
learning
and
adapting
to
change,
but
this
decision
to
stop
testing
was
not
made
in
a
moment
of
crisis
and
should
have
been
shared
widely
ahead
of
time
throughout
the
pandemic.
The
chelsea
public
schools
and
the
chelsea
teachers
union
have
highlighted
the
importance
of
health
and
safety
for
our
staff,
students
and
community.
F
The
building
blocks
for
a
safe
return
to
school
for
all
have
been
clear,
vaccinations,
ventilation,
ppe,
social
distancing,
testing
and
contact
tracing
our
membership
overwhelmingly
ratified
the
school
reopening
moa
based
on
these
building
blocks
and
because
they
trusted
that
the
district
would
uphold
what
was
agreed
upon.
The
unexpected
cessation
of
pool
testing
and
the
lack
of
communication
have
shaken
that
trust.
F
We
understand
that
there's
a
plan
in
place
to
begin
working
with
a
new
testing
provider.
This
new
plan
involves
students
bringing
their
own
samples
to
school,
which
raises
concerns
around
consistency
and
reliability
of
data.
Adding
a
minor
to
the
chain
of
custody
of
important
medical
information
does
not
make
the
flow
of
information
more
reliable.
F
Our
primary
concern
at
the
moment
is
the
safety
of
our
students
and
our
members.
The
union
has
worked
diligently
and
in
good
faith
to
be
partners
in
reopening
school
buildings.
We
expect
the
district
administration
to
do
the
same.
We
seek
assurance
that
any
further
changes
in
testing
be
communicated
to
union
leadership
before
those
changes
go
into
effect
and
that
all
tenants
of
the
school
reopening
mla
be
upheld.
F
We
cannot
work
successfully
if
we
cannot
work
together
and,
lastly,
I
want
to
add
a
few
words
of
my
own,
as
we've
learned
more
about
the
new
testing
protocol
over
the
last
24
hours.
I
urge
the
school
committee
to
ask
serious
questions
tonight
about
the
feasibility
of
this
new
system
and
to
match
us
with
the
reason
reasoning
given
behind
the
switch
families
will
need
to
have
a
camera
phone
internet
access,
digital
literacy
and
the
time
to
take
and
properly
label
their
children's
samples.
F
F
Ask
if
our
family
liaisons
have
been
given
training
and
explaining
this
new
procedure
to
our
families
and
if
our
clerks
have
been
given
training
to
answer
the
many
questions
sure
to
come
from
families
vying
to
keep
their
loved
ones
safe.
Ask
if
our
educators
collectively
ask
for
this
change
and
testing
protocol
to
trade
10
to
15
minutes
of
learning
time
each
week
for
this
uncertainty
about
an
issue
of
safety.
How
can
we
make
sure
we
test
a
representative
sample
of
our
school
community
moving
forward
to
help
keep
everyone
safe?
F
As
we've
been
saying
throughout
the
pandemic,
we
want
to
see
our
kids
in
person
when
and
in
a
manner
that
is
safe.
I've
missed
my
students
passionately
since
march
12th
of
2020,
and
I
look
forward
to
the
day
when
I
can
truly
be
excited
to
see
them
in
person.
It
was
such
a
faulty
brick
in
the
foundation
of
our
safe
learning
environment
each
day
at
school.
Now
I
worry
that
covet
is
silently
spreading
through
our
community.
F
G
A
A
A
H
Good
evening,
I'm
chairwoman,
garcia
and
members
of
the
school
committee.
Thank
you
so
much
for
all
your
support
during
this
pandomic
and
during
this
time-
and
I
just
want
to
say
we're
so
grateful
that
we've
been
able
to
open
our
elementary
schools
and
middle
schools
successfully
and
right
now
our
students
are
enjoying
in-person
learning
five
days
a
week.
We
completely
skipped
hybrid
and
from
what
we
hear
from
our
teachers
and
our
staff,
they
that
are
in
person.
H
Are
we
still
going
to
be
three
feet?
Socially
distance
are
what
are
going
to
be
the
requirements?
Where
are
we
going
to
be
with
this
pandemic
and
those
are
all
unknown
to
us.
So
in
light
of
that,
the
department
of
education
has
has
laid
out
some.
They
made
a
statement
saying
that
their
expectation
is
that
all
students
will
be
in
school
full-time
in
the
fall
and
that
remote
learning
will
no
longer
be
counted
as
time
on
learning
and
so
in
order
to
really
meet
the
needs
of
our
community.
H
So
the
background
again-
and
I
said
it
earlier
in
the
fall
of
2021-
the
department
of
ed
is
expecting
a
full
in-person
return
to
school.
Some
students
and
families
may
continue
to
seek
virtual
options
or
want
virtual
ops
options
in
chelsea
and
therefore
they're
allowing
district
districts
are
permitted
to
establish
single
district
virtual
schools.
H
So
the
need
for
a
virtual
school
in
chelsea
again
right
now,
overall,
about
50
of
our
families,
are
choosing
in-person
learning.
So
when
we
sent
out
the
survey,
students
have
come
back,
50
of
our
students
are
in
person
five
days
a
week
and
learning
and
50
are
still
remote.
At
the
same
time,
we
have
we're
continuing
to
feed
our
students
in
remote
with
our
field.
H
It
can
also
help
us
meet
the
needs
of
students
who
are
pregnant
or
have
children.
Students
who
seek
academic
work,
that's
not
available
in
their
school
for
students
who
are
gifted
and
talented
and
maybe
want
a
class.
That's
not
being
offered
students
with
social
and
emotional
needs
that
it
takes
that
that
may
make
it
difficult
for
them
to
attend
school
in
person
and
also
students
who
may
feel
bullied
when
they
come
to
school.
H
H
Then,
in
june
the
department
of
education
will
give
the
school
district
feedback
and
then-
and
there
has
to
be
a
school
committee-
vote
to
say.
Yes,
we
would
like
to
have
a
virtual
school
and
then
and
we
would
submit
more
information
as
we
evolve
and
then
in
july
july
would
include
feedback
from
a
second
round
from.
H
Jesse,
so
the
next
steps
are,
we
would
survey
families
and
and
assess
the
needs
for
the
fall.
Let's
get
a
pulse
of
what
our
families
are
saying
right
now,
will
they
send
their
children
back
to
school
or
not
amend
the
application
according
to
the
department
of
education
feedback,
and
then
there
would
be
school
committee
vote
in
june
and
then
we
would
look
to
hire
a
principal
and
a
small
team
to
lead
this
work.
H
H
Have
paid,
we
would
have
to
work
really
hard
fast
to
get
it
on
the
list,
and
I
think
that's
why
dusty's
deadline
is
june
and
july,
so
we're
hoping
we
we're
hoping
to
that
it'll
be
on
there
quick
enough,
so
parents
can
choose
it
as
an
option
and
and
part
of
part
of
the
urgency
on
on
our
part.
Is
we
recognize
that,
with
50
of
our
family
still
not
choosing
in-person
learning
that
will
probably
still
have
a
good
amount
of
families
that
may
want
to
keep
their
children
home.
I
H
Yeah,
that's
a
really
good
question.
Remember
wilson!
Yes,
this
would
be
for
a
start
at
the
first
couple
years
as
we're
still
getting
through
this
pandemic.
The
intent
is
to
have
it
be
k
through
12,
and
then
we
would
reassess
in
a
couple
of
years
and
see
if
we
still
want
it
at
the
elementary
grades.
But
for
sure
our
plan
would
be
to
keep
it
grades.
Six
through
12.
H
The
the
because
the
school
is
virtual,
there
is
no
location,
I'm
the
administrators,
I'm
sure
would
probably
could
be
virtual
or
it
could
be
located
somewhere.
The
department
of
ed.
The
way
we
are
funded
is
by
students
so
the
school.
Essentially
we
have
our
own
school.
It
has
its
own
funding
connected
to
it
by
by
student
enrollment,
but
to
hold
it
over.
For
the
start,
we
have
set
aside
sr2
funds
for
remote
learning,
and
so
this
would
definitely
be
covered
under
the
sr2
funds
and
supplemented.
G
Yeah
my
question
was
around
the
staffing
for
this
and
how
that
would
work.
I
I
heard
you,
you
know
mentioned
a
principle
and
I
I
missed
the
second
part
of
that,
and
I'm
just
curious
like
would
the
educators
participating
in
this
also
be
you
know,
cps
educators,
and
would
they
also
be
teaching
in
our
in
person?
That
kind
of
thing
could
you
just
like
explain
more
like
how
the
staff
and
model
work
yeah.
H
This,
our
that's
a
something
that
we
had
to
think
through
when
we
filled
out
an
initial
application,
and
it's
not
final,
but
our
intent
is
to
have
dedicated
teachers
dedicated
solely
to
the
virtual
school
chelsea
public
school
teachers.
We
would
we're
not
planning
to
outsource,
they
would
be
chelsea
public
school
teachers
that
are
fully
licensed
for
the
content
that
they
are
teaching.
H
Our
goal
is
not
to
have
have
them
hybrid
and
it
might
be,
maybe
if
it's
specialist,
or
something
and
and
depending
on
the
need
that
it's
a
0.5
specialist
in
the
ritual
school.
And
maybe
we
do
0.5
special,
let's
say
out
of
middle
school.
But
the
the
intent
is
not
is
to
really
have
the
virtual
school
as
much
as
possible.
Have
its
own
staff
and
full
fte.
H
H
H
Do
they
want
to
send
their
children
back
to
school
in
the
fall
with
50
still
opting
out,
I'm
I'm
sure
we're
not.
It
might
be
that
maybe
20
percent
say
you
know
what
I
still
want
my
child
to
learn
virtually.
So
we
want
to
provide
some
options
for
those
families
that
still
feel
like
they
want
to
keep
their
children
home
and
for
those
where
remote.
What
we
learned
through
this
entire
pandemic
is
that
remote
learning
was
actually
great
for
some
students,
and
so
those
students
may
say
I
like
remote
learning.
G
Yeah
just
a
final
comment
and
we
can
go
to
santiago
just
when
we
kind
of
do
that
survey.
If
we
could
just,
I
think,
would
be
important
to
ask
families
if
they
would
feel
differently
if
their
children
can
get
vaccinated
by
that
point,
so
I
think
you
know
somebody
might
feel
very
differently
if
their
10
year
old
is
vaccinated
in
the
fall
versus.
E
C
Yeah
I
was
scanning
I'm
on
I'm
on
a
different
device
today.
Thank
you,
so
yeah,
I'm
I'm
just
again
really
upset
with
governor
baker's
administration
and
jesse's
behavior
around
all
of
this,
and
the
lack
of
support
that
chelsea
has
received
to
think
that
students,
like
my
own
daughter,
who's,
currently
remote
and
all
the
great
work
that
she's
done
along
with
all
the
other
students
that
are
doing
great
work
online.
C
H
No
member
santiago,
the
virtual
school
would
be
k-12
right
now
for
the
first
couple
years
as
we're
still
in
this
pandemic,
and
then
we
would
reassess
and
our
and
we
would
reassess
and
go
from
there.
The
research
is
showing
us
that
our
our
secondary
school
students
are
actually
with
learning.
Virtually
is
actually
really
good
options
for
many
of
our
students.
C
Great
that
would
definitely
I
was
thinking
about
a
large
chunk
of
kids,
and
so
I'm
glad
that
it's
the
whole
the
whole
difference
and
that's
a
lot
of
work.
Thank
you
for
the
clarify
the
clarification
on
that,
and
then
you
know
the
other
thing
that's
come
up.
I
think
that's
been
really
important
that
I've
been
hearing
from
families
in
throughout
this
process
as
we
started
to
be
forced
to
open
schools
and
skip
the
hybrid
is
the
transportation.
C
C
In
terms
of
the
virtual
school
and
to
kelly's
point
about
having
this
as
an
option
in
a
survey
for
the
summer,
will
there
be
a
sort
of
like
deadline
in
order
for
families
to
decide
and
does
that
have
to
be
known
by
june?
Before
we
go
to
dusty
with
the
proposal,
or
do
we
have
some
leeway
in
terms
of
parents
knowing
for
sure
and
and
checking
that
box
when
they
make
the
choice?
C
H
I
think
the
deadline
would
be
a
district
proposed
deadline
and
something
that
we
would
have
to
work
through
with
our
families,
because,
as
you
said
earlier,
it
is
may,
and
we
have
to
move
very
quickly
to
get
this
started,
and
so
we
have
to
think
very
thoughtfully
about
the
curriculum
which
thankfully,
we've
been
doing
this
for
almost
an
entire
year,
and
so
we're
very
confident
that
we
can
continue
the
great
work
that
we've
already
started.
But
in
light
of
that
you
know
we
still
have
to
get
a
survey
out.
H
We
have
to
assess
and
then
we
would
probably
start
taking
sign
ups,
just
like
we
did
for
the
remote
option
and-
and
we
would
we're
gonna
we'd-
have
to
say
to
our
families.
Would
you
like
to
still
continue
in
this
in
a
virtual
school?
We're
going
to
offer
this
and
and
we
get
that
so
we
the
we
would
have
to
be
flexible
with
families
we're.
You
know
we're
we're
under
the
gun
to
get
this
up
and
running,
and
we
want
it
to
be
very
successful.
H
So
we
will
work
very
fast
and
furious
to
make
sure
that
it
is
successful
and
we
will
provide
as
much
flexibility
to
families
as
we
can,
because
we
want
to
make
sure
that
families
feel
if
they're
coming
in
person,
that's
their.
That
is
great
and
if
they're
still
not
comfortable,
that's
fine
too.
But
we
just
want
to
make
sure
as
a
school
system
that
we
are
providing
that
option
still.
A
E
Carlisle,
thank
you.
First
of
all,
thank
you,
superintendent.
I
know
you're
working
very
hard
with
jesse
and
the
state
and
everything-
and
I
know
the
difficulties
you're
going
through
to
make
sure
everything's
right
for
the
students
and
the
teachers
I
reach
to
visit
the
schools
to
see
what
it
was
like
in-house
and
I
can
say
the
teachers
feel
safe.
The
students
look
safe
and
the
administrators
are
very
happy
with
their
teachers
that
are
in-house.
E
E
G
D
H
Let's
see,
I
want
to
go
back
to
the
timeline
for
you,
okay,
so
we
submitted
just
an
initial
submission
of
interest
right
now
kind
of,
like
almost
like
a
rough
draft
of
yes,
we're
interested
here's.
What
we're
thinking
the
department
is
going
to
provide
us
feedback
and
I'm
sure
it'll
be
a
lot
and
then
we
receive
we'll
receive
the
feedback
in
june.
H
So
it
might
be
that
if,
if
we
haven't
received
the
feedback
by
june
3rd
to
work
on
it,
which
is
our
last
school
committee
meeting
for
the
year,
then
it
might
be
that
we
may
just
have
to
call
a
special
school
committee
meeting.
Just
for
this,
I
don't
know
if
we're
going
to
have
a
feedback,
but
in
time
for
to
have
a
full.
So
you
can
have
all
of
the
information
and
all
transparency.
H
So
it
might
be
that
we
have
to
call
a
special
meeting
just
for
this
vote,
and
I
I
apologize
for
that.
I
just
don't
know
if
the
timeline
is
going
to
work
for
for
a
june
3rd
vote
I'll
keep
you
posted,
though,
and
then
the
final
initial
application,
because
destiny
needs
to
have
school
committees
to
say
yes
or
no
or
approve
it.
Then
the
final
application
with
school
committee
approval
is
due
in
july.
G
C
Okay,
I
have
a
little
lag
on
this
side,
so
I
don't
forgive
me
guys.
Is
it
possible?
I?
I
guess
this
is
not
a
decision
that
we
need
to
make
right
now
and
I'm
not
going
to
request
a
formal,
I'm
not
going
to
request
it
formally
from
the
our
school
committee
right
now,
but
it's
something
to
think
about
whether
we
would
need
that
meeting
prior
if
it's
worth
having
a
a
subcommittee
of
the
whole
to
really
dive
into
the
data
to
to
support.
C
You
know
the
planning
and
the
final
decisions
that
you
know
prior
to
a
whole
vote
that
might
be
helpful
to
consider
you
know.
I
know
that
a
lot
of
us
try
and
need
all
the
documents
that
that
are
sent
in
advance,
especially
when
they're,
lengthy
ones-
and
you
know
I
would
just
want
us
to
think
about
that.
If
there's
a
space
for
us
to
actually
come
together
before
taking
a
final
vote,
to
approve
something
that's
sent
to
desi
in
terms
of
you
know
the
speed
in
this
timeline
for
approval.
A
K
K
We
are
about
10
percent
below
where
we
were
last
last
year
and
the
year
before.
At
this
time,
science
is
holding
steady
from
where
it
has
been
in
the
past,
we're
working
hard
to
get
those
you
know
get
kids
to
mastery,
but
with
all
the
transition
and
things
that's
happening,
it's
it's
a
little
touchy
on
page
five,
we
have
eighth
grade
just
there
we
go
sorry.
K
K
We
are
about
15
points
below
in
ela,
where
we
were
two
years
ago
in
quarter
three
in
grade
eight
we're
working
hard.
Now
that
we're
back
in
person
librarians
are
working
hard
to
get
books
into
the
hands
of
the
kids
and
we're
also
continuing
with
all
that
the
reading
instruction
as
best
we
can
on
page
six
good
news
is,
we
had
only
I'm
sorry.
We
have
43
students
who
have
dropped
out
and
that's
only.
D
K
More
this
month
than
the
prior
month,
and
just
as
a
comparison
two
years
ago,
at
this
time
we
had
99.
So
we
have
about
half
as
many
dropouts
as
we
did
two
years
ago,
trying
to
not
compare
us
to
the
pandemic,
as
you
can
see
in
the
table
below,
though
my
they
tell
you
this
every
month
every
month,
but
it's
our
l
students
that
are
dropping
out
most
frequently,
as
you
can
see
from
this
table
here,
there
are
details
about
the
student
who
dropped
out
on
page
seven.
K
K
K
One
and
two
good
news
is
in
grade
10,
proud
to
report
that
12
less
students,
so
we
had
been
hovering
in
the
57.
We've
managed
to
bring
that
down
to
46,
not
that
we're
proud
of
46.
We
still
have
a
long
way
to
go,
but
we
we
have.
We
are
going
in
the
right
direction
and
the
the
best
part
is
that
there
are
60
students
who
were
failing
three
or
four
grades
that
are
not
now
right.
So
we
had
a
lot
more
students
failing
three
or
four
courses
and
that's
been
drastically
cut.
K
G
G
If
you
know
do
we
also
look
at
kind
of
breaking
that
down
between
kind
of
how
long
a
student
has
been
in
our
district
and
like
do
you
know
you
know,
or
maybe,
if
you
don't,
if
we
could
just
know,
maybe
at
some
point
on
whether
how
those
numbers
might
look
differently
curious.
You
know
just
just
thinking
that,
like
you
know,
students
who
have
been
here
longer
probably
have
like
more
stability
in
their
probably
succeeding
at
a
higher
rate.
So
I'm
just
curious
about
that.
K
So
I
I
I
will
yes,
your
logic
holds
sounds
very
true.
Unfortunately,
we
are
held
accountable
for
whoever
fails.
You
know
we
want
all
kids
to
succeed.
So,
yes,
we
could
pull
that
data
apart.
I
I
believe
your
hypothesis
would
play
out,
but
that's
also
where
the
bridge
program
comes
in
right.
So
we
do
have
a
program
designed
to
support
english
language
learners
in
their
content
courses
which
is
slowly
released.
You
know
they
slowly
release
into
the
mainstream
courses
we
yeah.
K
G
J
K
K
C
Thank
you
miss
kent
for
for
sharing
all
the
information.
I
always
look
forward
to
hearing
this
report
and
I
really
appreciate
that
we
have
the
opportunity
for
our
families
that
are
watching
or
that
are
hearing
to
to
show
that
you
know
this
virtual
program
has
actually
provided
a
lot
more
consistency
and
has
resulted
in
way
more
benefits
that
I
think
all
of
us
might
have
otherwise
thought
possible,
and
I'm
really
really
grateful
for
the
work
that
this
district
has
done
to
making
that
happen.
C
I
I
think,
like
I
said
in
the
beginning,
we
were
going
to
learn
a
lot
and
I'm
really
grateful
that
we
have
like
concrete
data.
That's
showing
you
know
that
this
is
an
option
for
for
students,
depending
on
whatever
their
situation
is
at
the
time
and
whether
that's
a
particular
grade
or
not,
and
what
their
learning
needs
are.
So
I'm
really
grateful
to
all
of
you
for
providing
that
path,
and
then
forgive
me.
C
The
district's
seeing
a
number,
a
very
large
immigrant
community,
like
ours,
specifically
seeing
an
increase,
so
you
know
it's
something
that
I'm
I'm
really
excited
about,
that
you
know
we're
that
our
home
and
that
our
town
is
welcoming
and
continues
to
be,
welcoming
for
every
student,
no
matter
where
they
come
from.
It's
it's
to
be
honored
and
celebrated.
C
But
equally
I
guess
sort
of
like
where
roberta
was
was
saying
like.
How
are
we
also
just
taking
note
of
what
we're
seeing
now?
Is
this
a
trend?
That's
going
to
continue
that
we
can
also
take
that
into
account
in
our
planning
and
our
budgeting
in
the
next
few
years,
because
it
it
is
important
to
know
that
you
know
when
families
do
choose
a
town
to
come
to
it's
often
because
they
have
community
here
they
have
family
or
they
have
friends
and
that
that
is
going
to
be
more
indicative.
C
H
So,
with
the
current
provider,
we
on
the
current
vendor
we're
moving
over
to
veritas,
genetics
and
this
will
use
a
saliva
sample.
It'll
actually
provide
more
rapid
reflex
testing
for
us.
So
that
way
we
can
be
more
efficient
and
save
more
time,
and
that
way
we
say
we're
not
spending
as
much
time
cover
testing
and
and
saving
on
teaching
and
learning
time.
Really
so
we're
trying.
We
are
improving
the
process
if
you
will,
because
with
so
many
kids
coming
back.
H
The
reflex
testing
in
our
old
program
would
be
would
take
a
lot
of
time
and
resources
that
we
currently
thought
it
would
be
wiser
to
pause
and
then
and
let's,
let's
get
a
better
vendor
that
can
be
more
efficient.
So
that
was
the
reason
why
there
was
an
interrupt
in
the
flow
of
testing
and
according
to
desi,
we
couldn't
have
two
vendors
at
the
same
time
to
do
an
overlap,
so
we
had
to
stop
one
program
and
then
go
with
the
next.
H
And
I
want
to
thank
our
nurses,
who
have
been
diligently
covet
testing
for
the
last
six
weeks
and
again
we
apologize
that
there's
been
a
pause
and
the
pauses
only
to
improve
the
efficiencies
of
the
testing
if
we
want
a
better
product
and
we
want
to
save
time
on
teaching
and
learning.
The
second
update
I
have
is
regarding
food
in
our
schools,
and
so
now
that
our
students
are
returning
to
classrooms
across
the
district.
H
Mills
continue
to
be
available
for
pickup.
For
our
students
in
remote
learning
from
10
a.m,
to
1
p.m
and
at
the
same
time
our
cafeterias
are
producing
and
meals
for
students
in
school
mills
now
lunchtime
looks
completely
different,
because
students
are
six
feet
apart.
The
meals
have
to
be
brought
directly
to
classrooms
and
to
school
gyms
and
to
other
spaces
where
the
students
are
eating
in
a
socially
distant
manner
and
so
to
get
us
off
the
ground.
H
H
I
cannot
say
thank
you
enough
to
our
unsung
heroes,
our
mail
service
providers
and
all
of
our
operations
staff
who
have
worked
tirelessly
during
this
pandemic
non-stop
to
provide
meal
services
to
our
chelsea
community.
During
this
pandemic,
we
provided
well
over
360,
000,
breakfasts
and
360
000
lunches
to
the
children
in
chelsea,
and
we
have
done
so.
They
have.
We
have
done
so
outdoors
in
all
weather
conditions,
including
rain
and
snow,
and
including
times
when
the
covered
rates
were
extremely
high.
G
G
Go
ahead?
Yeah,
I
just?
Oh
sorry,
I
don't
have
the
child
here
on
my
feet.
I'm
just
curious.
You
mentioned
that
the
switch
had
partially
been.
You
know
a
resource
issue
and
also
that
we
couldn't
have
to
vendors.
At
the
same
time.
I'm
just
curious,
you
know,
pastor.
Was
there
any
kind
of
conversation
with
jesse
around
you
know
with
wanting
you
know
us
wanting
to
have
a
change.
D
C
C
I
I
just
wanted
to
say
to
oh
roberto's
back:
no,
no,
you,
you
can
finish
yeah.
I
just
wanted
to
say
thank
you
for
to
mr
delaney
for
really
going
above
and
beyond
and
through
the
loops.
You
know
we're
doing
something
that
that
is
unprecedented
again
and
I'm
just
really
grateful
for
your
efforts.
I'm
really
grateful
that
this
district
again
showed
leadership
and
really
you
know
putting
out
different
ways
for
our
families
to
have
resources
and
the
staff.
You
know
I'll.
Let
roberto
ask
this
question.
C
I
think
the
communication
piece
seems
like
an
opportunity,
but
you
know
I
don't.
I
trust
that
you
know
you're
gonna
make
decisions
as
you
see
fit
sometimes,
and
but
I
think
the
communication
piece
is
always
something
that
you
know
we
we
all
have
to
be
better
about,
but
outside
of
that,
I
I
still
recognize
that
you
know
I
certainly
can't
imagine
running
a
full
testing
site
and
and
and
have
everything
done
perfectly
and
seamlessly,
especially
dealing
with
dusty,
given
what
we
all
know
about
dusty.
H
Mr
member
of
roberto,
I
would
like
to
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
let
mr
delaney
answer
the
question,
but
before
I
do,
I
also
want
to
say
that,
with
more
students
coming
in
their
model
that
we
had
with
the
reflex,
testing
was
extremely
complicated,
and
so
there
were
other
vendors
that
had
a
little
bit
a
process.
That
was
a
bit
more
efficient.
But
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
mr
delaney
because
he
has
worked
tirelessly
on
all
the
details
and
also
working
with
dessie
as
well.
L
The
we
weren't
supposed
to
qualify
for
the
deci
program
because
we
weren't
in
person,
so
we
were
researching.
We
were
going
to
go
into
business
with
a
company
called
miramis
who
had
a
similar
program
to
what
vera
veritas
genetics
does
and
then
that
would
have
cost
us
close
to
a
million
dollars
for
the
rest
of
the
year
to
use
miramus
and
then
deci
realized
that
it
would
be
prudent
for
them
to
not
support
chelsea.
L
L
Let's
do
that
then,
but
we
knew
it
wasn't
perfect
and
we
knew
it
wasn't
sustainable,
but
it
was
our
best
and
most
cost
prudent
option,
but
what
we
found
is
even
without
kids
in
the
building
testing,
just
the
staff
in
the
building
and
the
limited
number
of
students
with
complex
and
significant
needs
it.
It
was
basically
on
testing
days
our
school
nurses
were
spending
their
entire
day.
Doing
testing
okay.
L
So
the
nurses
are
actually
busier
than
they
normally
are
now
couple
that
with
the
reflex
testing
that
has
to
happen,
we've
done
it
only
twice
in
the
times
that
we've
had.
I
was
there
for
both
of
them.
The
first
one
took
about
four
hours
with
six
people
doing
it
just
just
to
reflect
one
pool
of
people
and
that's
without
the
kids
back
so
we're
we
were
anticipating,
like
oh,
what's
going
to
happen
when
we
have
2
100
kids
back
in
our
buildings
and
we
get
positive
tests.
L
So
we
did
that
we
met
with
veritas,
their
ceo
actually
sat
with
our
health
office
staff.
We
had
lots
of
questions
for
them.
We
had
lots
of
demands
for
them
and
they
said
we
said
if
we're
gonna
switch.
These
are
all
the
things
we
want
in
place
and
they
had
everything
that
miramus
had,
including
the
reflex
testing
happening
at
a
lab,
it's
more
of
a
grab
and
go
so
the
you
know.
L
One
of
the
teachers
was
in
the
pool
and
we
had
to
bring
her
down,
and
I
watched
the
emotional
reaction
of
this
teacher
as
she
knew
her.
Kids
were
upstairs
learning.
While
she
was
down
there
getting
tested,
she
was
emotional
wreck.
She
ended
up
testing
negative,
but
it
was
a
really
terrible
experience
for
her.
So
with
this,
none
of
that
happens,
it
all
happens
at
the
lab.
The
only
thing
we
find
out
is
here's
the
name
of
the
person
who's
positive.
L
L
I
was
hoping
that
we
would
have
the
vacation
the
april
vacation
to
get
the
planning
done
and
get
the
onboarding
done,
but
we
didn't
find
out
that
we
were
approved
to
switch
until
monday
after
vacation,
and
at
that
point
that
was
when
cic,
our
previous
vendor
cut
ties
with
us.
So
we
weren't
able
to
work
with
them
anymore
because
they
knew
that
we
were
switching
over
to
veritas.
L
So
it
happened
very
quickly.
We
only
had
one
day,
but
I
will
say
that,
even
if,
even
if
we
knew
that
it
would
result
in
two
weeks
of
testing,
which
is
really
just
two
days
of
testing,
I
want
to
make
that
clear.
We
test
once
a
week,
so
it's
really
just
two
tests
that
didn't
happen,
and
you
know
our
perce.
Our
student
percentage
in
in
in
the
testing
was
fairly
low.
Anyway,
only
about
25
of
our
kids
were
involved
in
the
testing.
So
the
reality
is
I
I.
L
So
I
don't
know
how
you
guys
feel
around
70
accuracy,
but
now
our
reflex
testing
is
100
accurate
and
to
me
that
that
is
a
world
of
difference
and
it's
not
just
a
capacity
and
we've
also
heard
a
little
bit
about
the
technology.
The
reality
is
it's:
it's
really
really
easy
for
the
families
to
do
and
and
if
kids
are
having
trouble,
they
can
bring
their.
They
can
bring
their
kid
in.
They
can
do
it
in
the
nurse's
office,
it
doesn't
have
to
happen
at
home.
It
can
certainly
happen
at
school.
G
Thank
you.
I
just
want
to
just
want
to
quickly
say
you
know,
like
not
nothing
on
you
all.
I
think
that
on
the
dusty
side
like
if
we
had
access
to
this
better
vendor
prior,
you
know,
maybe
they
should
have
gone
with
that.
You
know
you
know.
I
don't
want
to
have
some
conspiracy
theory,
but
like
we
we
kind
of
started.
You
know
two
weeks
into
us
starting
right.
We
kind
of
stop
everything
which
is
like
roughly
the
timeline
when
we
might
see
cases
start
to
pop
up
it
really.
G
You
know
it
really
does
feel
like
in
some
way
that
you
know
desi
was
trying
to
like
you
know,
oh,
create
a
pause
so
that
then
you
know
numbers
look
better,
I
I
don't
know
it
just
it
it's.
They
should
have
created
a
process
by
which
we
could
have
not
had
that.
Not
have
that
that
week
missing,
you
know
not
nothing.
We
could
do
on
our
end,
but
you
know
just
once
again
showing
that
destiny
can
and
should
do
better.
Anyway.
Thank
you.
H
Again,
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you
to
the
hard
work
of
our
assistant,
superintendent
and
mr
de
lady,
because
he
has
spent
so
much
time
on
this
and
the
the
nursing
staff
as
well.
It's
been
a
gargantuan
test
to
get
this
off
the
ground
and
then
to
have
to
switch,
as
he
said,
one
day
notice
and-
and
so
it's
just
been
huge,
so
I
just
adam,
I
want
to
say
thank
you.
C
One
for
the
students
that
do
go
into
the
school
and
are
participating
in
the
the
pool
testing,
rather
with
this
shift
adam
is
am
I
did
I
hear
correctly
that
folks
would
need
like
a
digital
device
in
order
to
bring
this.
You
know
to
the
school
hearing
you
loud
and
clear
that,
like
if
a
family
has
a
need,
communicate
that
directly
to
the
school-
and
you
know
thank
you
for
saying,
like
nurses,
offices
are
open
so
that,
if
you
know,
students
and
families
want
to
participate,
is
it
is?
C
Is
this
new
vendor
in
terms
of
what
the
students
and
families
need
to
do
on
their
end
drastically
different,
or
is
there
just
like
a
couple
of
additional
steps
that
is
making
the
efficiency
better?
As
you
know,
I
would
land
with
what
supports
two
families
need.
Do
we
need?
You
know
some
type
of
communication?
Could
we
have
you
know
some
type
of
memo
or
you
know,
maybe
a
flyer
that
that
looks
friendly.
You
know
easy
to
follow
with
some
steps
for
families.
C
L
L
You
know
I
spent
the
morning
going
through
it
and
gave
them
some
feedback
and
asked
for
a
couple
of
other
things
like,
for
example,
for
the
staff
enrollment
piece
they
asked
for
gender
and
only
asked
if
male
or
female,
so
I
asked
for
a
non-binary
option.
They
one
of
the
one
of
the
bits,
wasn't
translated
into
spanish.
L
So
I
said
I
can't
send
this
out
to
families
if
it's
not
translated,
so
I
actually
have
a
meeting
to
again
with
them
tomorrow,
but
in
terms
of
the
actual
process,
I
I
can
describe
it
and
so
I
think
for
probably
99
of
our
families.
This
is
going
to
be
an
extremely
easy
process.
I've
modeled
it
myself.
I've
practiced
it
it's
pretty
easy.
So
what
happens?
Is
every
kid's
gonna
go
home
with
the
test
kit,
which
will
involve
a
tube?
L
So
all
they
have
to
do
is
open
up
the
camera
on
their
phone
and
hold
it
over
the
barcode,
and
that
will
automatically
take
them
to
a
quick
little
bit
where
all
you
have
to
do
is
enter
your
date
of
birth
and
your
name.
That's
it
and
you
hit
enter
and
then
what
you
do
is
you
drop
your
saliva
into
the
tube
using
the
funnel
put
the
cap
on
zip
it
back
into
the
bag
and
bring
it
to
school?
L
Now
if
the
technology
part
of
just
holding
the
camera
open
or
if
somebody
doesn't
have
a
phone,
they
can
simply
bring
it
into
school,
and
the
nurse
can
do
that
part
for
them.
It's
it's
really
really
easy.
I
don't
think
it's
a.
It
might
be
a
barrier
for
less
than
one
percent
of
our
our
kids
and
we're
prepared
to
support
that
any
any
percentage
of
kids
where
it's
difficult
for
them
to
do.
L
But
the
thing
is
we
couldn't
do
that
with
2
000
kids,
but
we
can
do
it
with
a
small
percentage
of
kids
who
can't
do
that
at
home.
So
you
know
we're
asking
we're
asking
families
to
provide
those
samples
in
the
morning
or
the
night
before
they
could
do
it
before
they
go
to
bed,
throw
it
in
their
backpack.
And
then
you
know
we'll
have
a
little
box
in
the
classrooms
where
they
drop
them
off
and
the
nurses
will
come
around
and
collect.
H
Okay,
so
here
here
are
our
personal
changes
for
this
month
and
you
can
see,
we've
had
some
new
hires
you'll
see.
Most
of
them
are
classroom,
monitors
and
crossing
guards.
Of
course,
since
we
started
school
lunch
monitors
and
nurses
aids,
and
so
you
can
see
the
needs
right
as
we've
opened
school
back
up.
Our
demographic
data
are
35
caucasian
57,
hispanic,
four
percent
black
four
percent
asian
pacific
islander,
and
then
we've
had
a
few
resignations.
H
And
and
then
promotions
and
transfers
and
then
for
school
enrollment
we're
pretty
we
you
can
see,
there
is
some
increase.
We
have
been
pretty
steady
all
throughout
this
year
and
the
last
month
or
two
we've
been
getting
some
students
we're
a
little
over
six
thousand
and
two
member,
my
soul,
our
money
soul.
You
were
talking
about
students
coming
in
and
we
are
experiencing
some
student
as
student
students
coming
in
mostly
in
the
middle
grades,
and
so
we
are
preparing
to
receive
we.
H
I
don't
know
if
you
recall,
but
we
lost
about
200
students
this
year,
our
english
language,
learners.
Many
of
them
did
not
come
so
we're
actually
preparing
to
receive
our
students
and
I'm
imagining
that
we
will
go
back
up
to
our
usual
enrollment
of
about
six
thousand
two
hundred
and
so
we're
slowly
coming
up
right
now
again,
so
I
would
like
to
commend
the
personnel
update
to
the
report
and
enrollment
report
to
the.
H
H
H
M
M
There
it
is
right:
okay,
okay,
this
was
the
budget
and
finance
subcommittee
met
on
thursday
april
29th
2021
at
5.
30
pm
in
attendance
were
superintendent
dr

mrs
velas
henry
wilson,
lucia

and
executive
director
of

J
M
M
First
line
is
consideration
action
to
accept
an
increase
of
sixteen
thousand
nine
hundred
and
fifty
dollars
in
the
gift
from
harvard
university
for
the
placement
of
teaching
fellows
at
chelsea
schools
during
physical
school
year,
2021

explanation.
Last
august
the
school
committee
accepted
a
gift
of
approximately
194
thousand
dollars
for
the
salaries
of
eight
harvard
teaching
fellows
for
the
current
school
year.
Harvard
university
has
since
offered
to
fund
the
cost
of
the
cps
mentors,
who
will
support
the
fellows
in
the
amount
of
hundred
and
dollars.
M
These
funds
will
be
added
to
the
original
gift.
For
a
total
of
two
hundred
and
eleven
thousand
three
hundred
and
seventy
four
dollars
massachusetts
general
law,
chapter
71,
section
37a,
provides
for
the
acceptance
of
gifts
for
educational
purposes
only
with
the
approval
of
the
chelsea
school
committee,
roll
call,
veronica.
B
I
M
chelsea
public
schools
is
the
lead
agency
for
this
two-year
grant
and
will
pass
the
funds
to
our
partners,
who
will
provide
programming
to
prevent
learning
loss,
bolster
social,
emotional
skills
development
and
promote
learning
recovery.
The
grant
partners
are
east
boston,
social
centers,
jordan,
boys
and
girls
club
and
for
kids.
Only
massachusetts
law,
chapter
71
section
37a,
provides
for
the
acceptance
of
grants
for
educational
purposes
only
with
the
approval
of
chelsea
school
committee.
C
I'm
voting
yes,
but
I
was
wondering
if,
after
our
roll
call
or
if
mrs
limboy
or
dr
albeda
can
explain
what
what
the
grant
for
partners
this
grant
from
the
partners
will
do.
My
apologies
to
the
committee,
because
I
wasn't-
I
wasn't
part
of
that
subcommittee,
but
that
that
can
happen
after
it
would
be
helpful
and
and
yes,
great.
B
D
B
H
K
So
this
grant
was
offered
by
the
state
of
massachusetts
to
support
after
school
programming
and
out
of
school
for
places
that
have
remote
students.
So
we
actually
partnered
with
the
three
partners
that
are
listed
here:
east
boston's,
commercial,
centers,
jordan,
boys
and
girls
club
and
for
kids
only
and
it
offered
money
from
this
past
january
kind
of
retroactively
until
june
for
fiscal
year
21,
as
well
as
another
year's
worth
of
money
and
the
categories
that
they
could
ask
for.
Funding
for
included
materials,
professional
development
planning
and
implementation
money
for
summer
school.
M
I'm
sorry
budget
transfer
the
funds
were
dedicated
towards
lease
and
and
tenant
had
an
improvement
for
a
new
space
for
the
chelsea
opportunities
academy
in
the
intergeneration.
Excuse
me
one
second
intergenera
generational
literacy
program.
Regrettably,
the
district
has
not
yet
been
able
to
identify
a
property
to
meet
the
needs
of
those
programs.
As
a
result,
it
is
now
recommended
that
the
funds
be
transferred
to
technology
services
where
they
can
be
committed
to
computer
hardware
and
software
and
other
technology
expenses
in
support
of
in-person
remote
learning.
B
K
G
I
M
Six
in
the
affirmative
and
three
absent
motion
passes
we'll
move
on
to
the
next
consideration:
action
to
authorize
the
prepayment
of
up
to
1.5
million
dollars
in
special
education
out
of
district
tuition
fees
to

collab,
collaborative
and
or
short
collaborative
for

explanation:
massachusetts:
state
law
allows
school
districts
to
prepay
special
education
tuition
using
current
year
dollars
to
pay
for
future
year

In
june

M
Excuse
me
authorize
the
prepayment
of
one
million
dollars
in
tuition
to

using
savings
that
were
generated
that

careful
management

B
C
And
and
forgiven,
because
I
know
where
we
have
a
lot
of
questions
tonight,
I
appreciate
it,
but
I
will
I
I
need
to
the
next
budget
subcommittee
next
time.
I
think
that
you
know
one
of
the
things
that
I
appreciate
is
that
we
get
to
hear
from
every
school,
and
you
know
I
know
in
our
reports.
We
don't
often
hear
enough
about
the
north
shore
collaborative
and
it's
a
very
important
part
of
our
district
part
of
our
district,
and
so
I
know
that
we
have
a
representative.
C
I
know
that
there's
meetings
I
would
just
you
know-
I
am
voting
yes
for
this,
because
our
students
needed,
of
course,
without
a
question,
but
I
just
think
it's
every
every
single
movie.
I
think
you
sort
of
you
know
regretted
that
I
didn't
ask
more
follow-up
questions
about
this,
but
I
would
love
to
hear
more.
You
know
more,
you
know
a
report
or
an
update
about
them
and
how
our
students
are
doing
there
as
well
in
the
future.
C
I
M
It's
in
the
affirmative
and
three
apps
of
motion
passes.
We
move
on
to
the
next
consideration
and
action
to
approve
a
budget
transfer
from
multiple
departments
to
facilities
and
transportation
for
fiscal

explanation:
savings
are
available
in
benefit
and
payroll
adjustments,
due
mostly
to
savings
in
employee
and
retirement
health
insurance.
M
Salary
savings
at
schools
have
been
calculated
based
upon
current
staffing.
However,
since
the
district
continues
to
hire
short-term
staff
to
support
in-person
learning
and
certain
accounts
are
only
used
when
students
are
are
present,
this
budget
transfer
is
is
asking
that
the
school
committee
authorized
transfers
in
amounts
not
to
exceed.
M
This
will
provide
central

with
flexibility
to
transfer
funds
as
the
end
of

approaches
while
ensuring

consideration
and
action
to
authorize

to
enter
into
a
lease
agreement
of
up
to
25
years,
with
first

and
the
inter-generate
generational

program.
Item

explanation.
M
In
november
2019
the
school
committee
authorized
the
district
to
enter
into
a
lease
agreement
for
up
to
10
years
for
a
space
for
the
relocation
of
the
chelsea
opportunity
academy
and
the
intergeneration
generational
literacy
program.
Since
the
date,
staff
staff
have
issued
two
requests
for
proposals,
but
have
not
have
not
been
able
to
find
an
optimal
site
with
a
10-year
term.
Staff
is
requesting
that
the
school
committee
modify
the
parameters
for
the
potential
lease,
including
allowing
a
term
of
up
to
25
years.
M
Increasing
the
allowment
uses
uses
so
that
other
programs
or
classrooms
could
potentially
be
located
there
and
or
and
requesting
the
first
right
of
refusal
to
acquire
the
property.
Should
it
should
it
become
available
in
any
purchase
would
require
a
separate
action
of
the
school
school
committee
in
city
council.
Should
the
property
arise
in
the
future
roko.
G
Okay
go
ahead,
I'm
just
I'm
curious
around
the
section
b
here
around
increasing
the
allowable
uses
so
that
other
programs
or
classrooms
could
be
located
there.
I
just
wonder
if,
if
you
could
expand
on
that
around,
you
know
like
what
the
thinking
might
be
around
that
I
I
this
is.
I
think
this
is
exciting.
H
So
I'm
just
just
curious
to
learn
more
about
it.
So
thank
you,
member
jimenez.
We
we
wanted
to
leave
that
language
flexible,
because
there
again
like
at
central
office
here
at
city
hall,
we're
we're
in
tight
quarters,
so
we
are
leaving
that
optional
and
giving
us
the
flexibility
to
be
creative
in
the
space,

I
will
let

A
comment
on
how
important
this
is
again.
I
appreciate
the
observation
to
have
some
flexible
language,
as
we
continue
to
look
around
for
this
new
space
and
understanding
what
how
we
need
to
expand
and
how
we're
growing.
I
know
that
I
just
wanted
to
lift
that
the
iop
program
as
well,
including
with
the
coa
these
efforts,
have
been
just
really
celebrated.
C
I've
been
receiving
like
immense
feedback
about
the
ilp
in
the
last
few
weeks,
which
I'm
really
happy
about,
because
it's
it's
a
program
that
I
that
I
keep
hearing
good
things
and
need
to
learn
more
about,
and
it
seems
to
be
really
successful,
and
so
I'm
glad
that
we're
considering
the
iop
you
know
also
with
the
coa
thinking
about
how
we're
expanding
opportunities
for
for
our
families
and
our
students
in
the
district.
So
this
is
really
exciting
and
just
yes
thank
you
for
for
your
work
on
this.
B
Roll
call,
consideration
and
action
to
authorize
the
district
to
enter
into
a
lease
agreement
of
up
to
25
years
with
the
first
right
of
refusal
to
acquire
property.
The
authorization
is
to
negotiate
with
the
owners
for
lease
space
for
district,
administrative
and
or
academic
programs,
including,
but
not
limited
to
the
chelsea
opportunity,
academy
and
intergenerational
literacy
program.

They
came
out
for
the
first
set
of
vaccinations
at
the
charleston
senior
center
two
weeks
ago,
and
also
for
the
the
staff
from
the
school
delaney
and
school
nurse,
and
a
couple
teachers
from
the
school
came
by
to
help
us
out
as
well
as
want
to
thank
the
parents,
and
the
students
who
came
out
also
for
earth
day
was
the
same
day
and
we
had
a
great
showing
of
city
community
people
coming
out
and
supporting
both
events.
So
I
want
to
thank
everybody
for
that.
G
Yes,
quick
announcement
as
well
yeah.
I
just
wanted
to
to
highlight
that
the
chelsea
city
council
joined
us
in
passing
a
resolution
in
favor
of
the
fair
share
amendment
this
past
monday.
So
I
just
want
to
thank
the
members
of
the
council,
who
were
supportive
of
the
resolution,
the
the
vote
passed
in
a
six
to
three
vote
with
two
members
absent
from
the
meeting.
G
So
I
just
wanted
to
thank
councillor
garcia
for
introducing
the
motion
introducing
the
resolution
I
apologize
and
and
the
other
counselors
who
voted
for
it.
So
I
think
it's
really
important
in
making
sure
that
we
also
have
the
council
support
in
making
sure
that
our
schools
are
fully
funded.
Thank
you.
E
E
C
Same
thank
you,
dr
albeda,
for
sending
out
that
recognition
as
well
always
very
thoughtful.
With
these
days
and
hearing
from
mr
delaney
to
how
much
our
nurses
are
working
overtime
per
usual.
So
lots
of
gratitude
to
to
our
team
into
the
district
for
all
the
extra
care
and
love
they've.
Given
our
kids
appreciated.

I
Last
last
information-
I
guess
wednesday
on
the
12th
of
this
month,
we're
going
to
have
the
charter
review
from
the
meeting
at
city,
hall,
city,
council
chambers
and
I
believe
it's
6
p.m.
So
it's
a
good
time
to
come
and
see
the
charter
review,
get
involved
and
see
what
type
of
changes
we
are
considering
changing
on
the
in
the
charter.
So
it's
wednesday,
the
12th
of
may
at
six
o'clock.
M
Okay,
actually
I
needed
I
wanted.
I
was
going
to
look
that
up,
so
thank
you.
You
saved
me
and
called
me
from
the
home
last
night.
Thank
you
very
much.
Anyone
else
none!
Well
I
wanted
to.
I
wanted
also
to
thank
dr
albata
for
for
always
keeping
us
so
updated
on
everything.
That's
happening
and
everything
that's
going
on.
M
So
I
want
to
thank
you
very
much
for
that,
and
I
want
to
thank
all
the
teachers
and
all
the
staff
and
all
the
students
getting
back
to
school,
full
time
and
making
this
all
work.
I
think
that
goes
from
all
of
us
from
the
whole
school
committee
to
all
of
you
for
making
our
job
a
lot
easier
and
for
working
so
hard
to
make
this
work.
M
Thank
you
and
thank
you
for
your
patience
with
me.
I'm
sorry.
I
was
in
the
middle
of
trying
to
read
all
this
and
and
my
new
puppy
was
nipping
at
my
hands
and
she
fights
a
little
hard.
Sometimes
so
I'm
trying
to
read
and
she's
biting
on
my
hands,
but
thank
you
so
much
and
hope
you
have
a
good
evening,
and
can
we
have
a
motion
to
adjourn
motion
to
adjourn.
