A kit was enough about our teachers and leaders in their own direction.

The school board is taking place this first semeste to try to keep students educated ... to try to keep everybody will looking ahead to the next semester.

Following the christmas holiday ... break ... where we gonna be absolute so on friday we had to wait a little sharing any adjustments what we had a general conversation about we will survey a couple weeks ago about 16,000 on it about 3000 more employees in the beautiful conversations and working level of desire to research airing out to live your earlier great were able to be even more bristle getting them on campus and so were trying to do that work to better the next couple of days with them.

We will have a few adjustment but you know over overall word ... can you tell us what you learned during the first semester here ... .

Terry ... into the second semester.

Maybe some things are going to build ... on or ... and i learned several things i think we learned that the teachers are of heartbeat or school district.

We learned that you know students and families are amazingly resilient.

This community can come together and really get really challenging times.

We've also learned how to how to get a pretty good control grasp of the engagement mitigation strategie to to really try to curb the virus in our school seamless britain we have the community and others.

So that's the to be attributed to the work.

It's reuters of the data we had a ride at 8000 students that were on at home first semester that will be returning ... second semester on your own children ... adopted to this one sudden school system.
