When I came on the board, I was somebody who was like. Yeah, what's, what is our current strategic plan looking like? How are we implementing this and how are we, uh, moving forward even past, um, the strategic plan and remember having conversations with Doctor Stanley early on about like a refresh strategic plan and, um, and Doctor Stanley really just jumped right in and, and, and knows that our work as a district really needs to live within. Um, a document that guides us, um, in that, and I think for us to be able to transparently communicate our decisions to the community to Director Henderson's point, having this document um, is a step in that direction and so, um, deep gratitude to you all and task force members and everyone who's gotten us to this point.

I'm not gonna be as articulate right now as I would normally be Oh my gosh, that's embarrassing, because like I am exhausted. I have a 5 month old at home, uh, and I'm I'm sleep deprived, but I just wanna say like, generally thank you all so much to everyone who, who worked on this. This is so exciting. Um, uh, Doctor Stanley fellow board members that that served on, on the committee everyone in the community that was involved, everyone on staff who was involved, um, it's, it's really exciting that we're about to approve a new strategic plan tonight uh, and I'm looking forward to, to seeing where this goes.
