A
And
justice
for
all,
thank
you.
I
see

have
a
quorum,
I'm
going
to
do
a
roll
call
to
make
sure
everybody's
here,
and
so
we
can
start
the
meeting
all
right.
Let's

wilson

yosemite!
A
A
A
A
A
Okay,
pleasure
regions,
we're
gonna,
have
voting
regarding
entering
executive
session.
We're
gonna
have
to
have
someone
tell
us
go
into
executive
sessions.
Please,
because
we
have
to
do
some
things
in
executive
section.
Could
I
have
a
vote
going
to
accept
session
I'll,
make
a
motion
for
a
boat
to
go
into
executive
session?
G
D
G
Confirmation
from
okay.
E
Okay,
he
said
we're
all
set,
so
go
ahead
and
call
us
back
all
righty
team.
We
will
be
returning
back
to
open
session
good
evening,
everyone
watching
at
home.
We
will
be
inviting
ms
dejas
to
cast
a
roll
call
for
the
potential
vote
on
the
memorandum
of
agreement
with
the
chelsea
teachers
union.
D
Madam
chair,
before
we
just
wanna
just
wanna,
let
the
public
know
that
I
am
going
to
be
voting
president,
because
I
was
not
a
participant
in
a
lot
of
these
executive
sessions,
and
so
because
I
did
not
take
part
in
a
lot
of
it.
I
you
know
would
rather
stay
out
of
it.
I
recently
took
a
job
with
the
boston
teachers
union,
as
was
mentioned
a
few
meetings
ago,
and
there
was
a
question
about
whether
that
might
pose
a
conflict.
E
A
I
would
probably
want
to
thank
the
superintendent
again.
I
know
it
wasn't
live
before,
but
I
want
to
thank
the
superintendent
and
christine
for
doing
a
wonderful
job
negotiating
this
with
the
union.
I
know
it's
been
a
difficult
time
throughout
the
state
of
massachusetts
trying
to
get
everything
in
place,
but
right
now
I
think
we're
in
a
safe
position
that
we
can
have
the
teachers
coming
back
into
the
classroom
a
couple
of
days.
A
So
I
want
to
thank
you,
superintendent
and
christine
for
your
hard
work,
and
I
just
want
the
public
to
know
that
you've
been
working,
24
7
on
this,
and
it's
been
a
very
difficult
thing
to
do,
and
I
understand
it,
but
the
safety
of
the
teachers
and
the
students.
That's
what
we're
here
for
and
thank
you
very
much.
A
B
I
want
to
thank
the
parents
and
the
community
at
large
all
the
stakeholders
involved
in
this
process
that
have
supported
our
superintendent
in
the
team,
whether
it's
through
information,
our
healthcare
partners
in
the
city,
which
certainly
has
been
a
blessing
for
a
lot
of
us,
and
also
just
to
reiterate
what
others
have
said
that
you
know.
B
This
is
an
unprecedented
time
and
an
unprecedented
process,
and
just
really
acknowledging
the
work
of
central
office
and
our
superintendent
to
go
beyond
the
scope
of
what
I
think
a
superintendent
foresees
their
duties,
but
with
the
with
the
love
and
and
care
for
our
students
and
the
safety
of
our
kids,
always
as
a
priority
in
trying
to
meet
their
educational
needs
in
such
a
time.
B
B
You
know
that
it
is
a
remote
start
and
that
you
know
we
have
done
our
best
to
negotiate
and
be
flexible
and
fluid
around
taking
care
of
our
students,
our
teachers,
staff
and
everybody
who's
involved
in
our
district.
So
we
look
forward
to
continuing
those
conversations
and
so
only
making
this
experience
as
best
as
possible,
but
thank
you
almighan
and
dr
albeda,
and
to
all
the
team
involved
and
the
school
committee
members.
G
I
would
just
like
to
add
something,
mrs
carson,
so
throughout
this
whole
process,
there's
some
people
we
haven't
heard
a
word
from
and
those
are
our
school
principles,
I'm
pretty
sure,
they're
overwhelmed
as
well
trying
to
open
up
their
schools
during
this
uncertain
time.
So
I
just
want
to
thank
them
as
well
because,
like
I
said,
they've
been
the
silent
ones
working
behind
the
scenes
and
I'm
pretty
sure,
they're
feeling
overwhelmed
as
well.
So
I
want
to
thank
our
school
principals.
E
Great
I'd
like
so
I
I
would
also
like
to
just
reiterate
what
I
said
during
my
convocation
speech
and
thank
the
staff
and
the
faculty,
the
school
nurses
for
an
unprecedent
unprecedented
school
year.
That's
upon
us
as
a
teacher
myself,
I
I'm
with
you
with
the
you
know,
with
the
anxiousness
and
the
nervousness
surrounding
going
back
to
the
school
and
virtual
learning,
so
just
know
that
we
are
here
for
you.
We
will
do
the
best
that
we
can
to
support
our
entire
district
during
this
time.
F
F
Can
I
speak
please?
Yes,
so
I'm
just
going
to
say
what
everyone
else
has
been
saying
is
thinking
the
the
central
office
staff,
dr
veda,
and
her
team,
the
principals,
the
teachers,
especially
the
students
schools,
coming
up
next
week.
So
we
want
everyone
to
be
careful
out
there,
but
but
more
importantly,
work
with
us
work
with
the
with
the
whole
entire
administration
trying
to
make
this
an
even
smooth
transition
towards
all
this
is
all
new
to
us.
F
So
we
want
everyone
to
take
a
breather
and
work
together,
but
I
also
want
to
thank
the
union
for
working
together
at
the
schools
as
well
and
hopefully
we'll
be
going
to
have
now.
Hopefully,
we
are
going
to
have
a
great
2021
in
2020
and
we're
going
to
keep
doing.
We
do
best
educators,
so
thank
everyone
for
their
hard
work,
commitment,
dedication
and
we'll
make
it
through.
So
thank
you.
Everyone.
