it's2604.41 okay.2604.66 2612.91 DEDE2612.91 GALDSTON2612.91 -2612.91 WATERTOWN2612.91 PUBLIC2612.91 SCHOOLS2612.91 -2612.91 Excellent.2612.91 Thank2613.47 you.2613.63 Maybe2614.67 later2614.91 on2615.23 I'll2615.47 share2616.35 my2616.67 prepared2616.99 remarks,2617.31 which2617.63 don't2617.87 really2618.11 have2618.27 to2618.43 do2618.51 with2618.59 the2618.75 question.2618.83 So2619.23 let2619.47 me2619.63 answer2619.79 the2620.11 question.2620.27 I2621.47 think2621.63 that2621.87 when2622.91 we2623.15 think2623.31 about2623.55 the2623.71 middle2623.87 school2624.19 and2624.59 the2624.83 fact2624.99 that2625.31 the2626.18 bulk2626.57 of2626.82 the2626.89 majority2626.97 of2627.38 the2627.45 building2627.53 was2627.86 built2628.09 in2628.34 1922,2630.41 that's2630.82 over2630.82 1002631.22 years2631.53 ago,2632.89 a2632.97 lot2632.97 has2633.14 changed2633.38 in2633.7 teaching2633.86 and2634.09 learning.2634.34 That2635.22 building2635.45 was2635.78 built2635.93 as2636.41 a2636.57 junior2636.74 high2637.14 school,2637.3 far2638.41 more2638.65 in2638.81 keeping2638.97 with2639.21 what2639.37 we2639.53 would2639.61 consider2639.77 a2640.17 high2640.25 school2640.41 to2640.65 be2640.73 like2640.89 than2641.13 a2641.37 middle2641.45 school.2641.69 I2642.65 don't2642.73 need2643.05 to2643.21 go2643.37 too2643.77 far2643.93 into2644.17 detail2644.49 about2644.89 the2645.21 middle2645.45 school2645.69 model2645.93 of2646.25 education.2647.29 But2647.45 what2647.45 it2647.61 is,2647.85 is2648.09 creating2648.33 smaller2648.73 learning2649.21 communities2649.53 that2650.61 support2650.84 students2651.32 at2651.89 their2652.05 particular2652.36 grade2652.84 levels2653.09 in2653.41 smaller2653.57 groups.2653.89 So2654.68 for2654.93 example,2655.16 I'm2655.41 just2655.49 talking2655.64 about2655.8 the2655.97 learning.2656.13 The2656.61 building,2656.84 sure,2657.41 there's2657.64 a2657.89 lot2658.05 of2658.13 things2658.2 wrong2658.45 with2658.61 the2658.68 building2658.84 too,2659.09 but2659.32 for2659.64 me2659.8 it's2659.97 about2660.13 the2660.28 education.2660.45 2661.72 So2661.72 the2661.97 middle2662.2 school2662.45 model2662.68 requires2663.01 smaller2663.81 clusters2664.21 of2664.61 students.2664.77 They're2665.49 grouped2665.73 between2666.05 802666.45 and2666.69 1002666.93 students.2667.25 In2668.37 an2668.53 ideal2668.77 world2669.17 that2669.65 learning2669.89 community2670.21 is2670.77 for2672.21 classrooms2672.45 with2673.09 a2673.25 center2673.41 area2673.73 where2674.05 students2674.29 can2674.69 collaborate,2675.09 and2675.65 be2675.81 together,2676.05 and2676.69 learn2676.85 interdependently.2677.57 But2678.91 right2679.14 now2679.22 with2679.7 the2679.95 role2680.11 that,2680.43 it's2680.66 the2680.91 same2681.31 conversation2681.7 we2682.11 had2682.27 about2682.43 the2682.51 high2682.66 school,2682.83 with2683.31 the2683.55 long2683.7 hallways2684.03 and2684.66 the2684.83 classrooms2685.07 on2685.63 either2685.79 side,2686.03 we2686.74 can't2686.99 create2687.47 that2687.87 true2688.03 middle2688.43 school2688.74 model2688.99 that2689.39 we2689.55 would2689.7 like2689.87 to.2690.03 One2690.66 of2690.76 the2691 things2691.16 that2691.24 I2691.36 think2691.48 is2691.72 really2691.96 exciting2692.84 about2693.32 the2693.8 potential2693.96 plan2694.52 is2694.92 keeping2695.16 the2695.48 19982697.24 part2697.72 of2697.88 the2697.96 building,2698.12 which2698.36 again2699.64 for2700.04 people2700.2 who2700.44 are2700.6 familiar2700.76 with2701.08 that,2701.24 there2701.8 is2702.04 the2702.28 middle2702.44 school2702.68 model2702.92 which2703.16 is2703.32 currently2703.48 the2703.88 8th2704.04 grade2704.2 clusters,2704.44 and2704.84 it's2705 perfectly2705.24 designed2705.88 for2706.28 that.2706.44 So2706.74 those2706.97 classrooms2707.22 are2707.86 able2708.1 to2708.41 take2708.49 advantage2708.74 of2709.14 having2709.3 that2709.54 smaller2709.78 community.2710.18 So2711.54 that's2711.7 just2711.93 one2712.26 very2712.58 specific2712.89 example2713.38 that2713.86 disjoints2714.18 a2715.3 lot2715.38 of2715.54 our2715.7 students.2715.86 For2716.18 example2716.34 our2716.66 6th2716.82 graders2717.06 some2717.38 of2717.54 them2717.7 take2718.26 classes2718.41 on2718.82 one2719.06 end2719.22 of2719.38 the2719.45 building2719.61 and2719.93 have2720.02 to2720.18 go2720.26 all2720.41 the2720.58 way2720.66 over2720.82 to2721.06 what2721.3 is2721.45 termed2721.61 as2721.93 the2722.02 penthouse2722.18 to2722.68 have2722.92 part2723.16 of2723.48 their2723.56 education2723.8 as2724.2 well.2724.44 So2724.68 that's2725.4 one2725.72 of2726.04 the2726.12 major2726.28 reasons.2726.68 Another2727.56 one2728.2 is,2729.16 right2729.16 now2729.4 when2730.68 I2731 started2731.16 there2731.64 were2731.88 roughly2732.04 5002732.52 students2733.08 in2733.48 the2733.64 school,2733.8 maybe2734.36 510.2734.76 We're2735.8 closely2736.04 approaching2736.52 600.2737 So2738.18 when2738.74 it2738.97 comes2739.14 to2739.45 the2739.78 amount2739.93 of2740.18 classrooms2740.34 that2740.74 we2740.89 have2741.06 right2741.3 now,2741.45 it2742.09 is2742.41 actually2742.66 not2743.38 even2743.61 feasible2743.93 to2744.34 think2744.41 about2744.66 adding2745.45 staff2745.78 and2746.26 adding2746.49 clusters,2746.82 so2747.38 that's2747.54 another2747.78 reason2748.09 for2748.41 that.2748.66 2749.54 But2749.54 also2749.7 important2750.02 is,2751.25 1002751.33 years2751.65 ago,2751.89 the2752.45 way2752.69 that2752.85 we2753.09 staffed2753.97 our2754.45 schools,2754.61 we2755.09 didn't2755.25 have2755.57 our2755.89 social2756.13 workers,2756.53 and2756.93 our2757.09 guidance2757.33

special2762.69 education2762.93 programs.2764.29 Like,2764.74 if2764.74 you2764.82 think2765.07 about2765.14 what2765.55 we've2765.7 added2766.11 to2766.43 schools2766.66 over2767.14 the2767.39 last2767.47 1002768.03 years,2768.51 the2769.39 building2769.47 that2769.79 we2769.95 have2770.03 there2770.27 right2770.43 now,2770.66 sure2771.14 our2771.47 teachers2771.7 will2772.11 do2772.18
