Oh, okay. Alright. Okay. So, good evening, everybody. This is the, d three communications and outreach committee. I'm Laura, the, the cochair, and I'd like to introduce Linda, my fellow cochair. Hi, everyone. I'm Linda, cochair with Laura and the committee. I can pass it to Whitney so they can just do your introduction quickly. Yeah. Thanks, Laura and Linda. So I am a committee member. I'm so excited to be here tonight. But in my other duties, I serve as the co president. So I'm gonna talk to my co president, Victoria. Thank you, Wendy. Victoria Medellia is co president of CC thirty,
serving in a member capacity here, and excited to be here. I'm gonna give it to Nadia. Oh, Nadia, you're muted. Whoops. I'm Nadia Saeed. I'm a member of CEC thirty and a member here of this committee. I will pass it to Alexis. Hey, y'all. Good evening. Alexis Kalyanides, member of CEC thirty and member of this communication and outreach committee. Yeah. Okay. I think that's all all of us. So the next step, so just to kind of talk about a overview of this the committee. So, this committee, we handle we're gonna be handling communication and outreach based initiatives,
for the next year. It's like week yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Great. And so for our agenda, we've got a few, big things. Linda and I met. We had a meeting of the minds. We talked about our top priorities that we wanna bring to the committee and hopefully get done this year. And I'm thinking we could just kind of talk about those sub priorities. Like, there's two big ones, and then there's one that has a bunch of steps and elements inside of it. The first one, and we I think we agreed as a top top top priority is getting an
official District 30 Facebook. So we would no longer have unofficial Facebook floating around. We would no longer have members of the CEC blocked from the Facebook. So it it will help us have a tighter relationship with the schools that we serve, and with superintendent's office. I would like to kind of just, like, brainstorm with you guys a little bit about our path to getting from right now having not having an official one to us having an official one, so that we could kind of figure out what steps we need to take and,
who we need to loop in so that we can get the help to get it done before the end of the year. Are we bound by, like, the New York City Public Schools social media guidelines, or do we operate does this operate separate per the lot? So we are all parent volunteers, so I don't think we are bound to any DOE, anything. It's more our I think, Lauren and I wanted this to be, like, official CEC informational. What we get, we'll post. So it's not really, like, we're really bound to any DOE because I I I'm I'm assuming because we're parent
volunteers. We don't work for DOE. So I think this is more or less, like, our our official Facebook where we're giving out our information to the problem. So at least I I don't know Whitney and Victoria. Correct me if I'm wrong. I'm not sure. I mean, if we're gonna encourage the schools to, like, post there as well, I think we might have to, you know, figure out what kind of role they're gonna play. I think we could talk to miss Hidalgo. I mean, if we do have to work with the superintendent's office or, you know, the schools in some capacity, I think we need to investigate that first.
You know, that way they feel comfortable with sharing the things from their school too. Because a lot of our schools do have, Instagram, so maybe we could get them to migrate to Facebook. I think we need to just kinda engage with them and see what our what our options are in that in that regard. Are we imagining that it will also function as, like, a forum for families the way that the fake group currently does? At which point, just to be clear, we won't have, jurisdiction over what is said necessarily. Correct? I mean, I Or do we need or do we need to be,
like, moderators? Like, if they're you know what I'm saying? I'm just opening that can because it'll happen. Yeah. Facebook is a forum where that happens. Yeah. We would have to have some kind of moderation capacity. I don't think we want it to devolve into the Right. Toxic space. Right. So that so that's why I'm posing the question, and I'm wondering if this is something would our AA be able to, like, part time, moderate it? Would it be up to this committee to moderate it? I'm just trying to understand, like, what what sort of, like, editorial and or moderating we would need to do.
You know, I I I I personally think, like, you know, the AA should be monitoring it as well as the committee, and, like, certain things that wants to be pulled. If we think as a committee poll, that it's something that's toxic to see like, to to our organization, then I I think we shouldn't let them post it. So if it's things that are, like, not toxic, like, we and not something like you know? You you know what I'm saying? Like, how you know, we have numbers here that are blocked for no apparent reason for voicing their opinions, and they're, like or something like that.
Like, I think we should not allow in our group. So more or less, like, I I I'm fine with, like, you know, getting information. Like, our school has, like you know, Victoria too. Like, we have our PT kids, and, you know, parents ask whatever questions they ask, but they never really post anything about elected officials or any groups, organizations, and all those things in it. That's more like information that they're trying to ask, like the executive boards. Mhmm. And then we kinda just answer along the way. But it had it has nothing to do with, like, you know,
any kind of medias, like like, you know, those toxic whatever it is. Like, I think, because I I monitor two schools and, like, you know, we never have any, like, negativity. It's just more informational that parents are asking, and we give the corrected information. That that's what I think. I I don't know about you guys. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, today, I was what was it? I was just cruising past the the old, like, the unofficial one. And, in terms of, of what you're saying, like, there's political
what is what is the right word for it? Just kind of, posting, like, like, encouraging people to go to certain events, and it's coming from the moderator. And so and I've seen this over the years. So it's something where I would want it to lean more towards we're we're getting out information. People could share things. Parents could ask questions, and we can get more accurate answers because people aren't blocked from there. And it's also Right. It's, it's got a little bit more officialness. But also, we're not like, the people moderating it aren't saying they're telling you to go to a politician's event.
Right. Right. And using their role as being on former CC, but now also, like, in other roles and authority that way. And I'm not saying I'm going to I would stop a parent who's not in a any type of parent leadership role. I'm sorry. But as far as what we're sharing yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Like, I And we can have a list of, like, guidelines too of, like, you know, don't post solicitations. Don't put you know, whatever it is. But Like, I'm not ready to about the uniform or what after school programs are you sending.
Yeah. Like and and we can also you know how, like, before we start our CEC meeting, like, Winnie and Victoria has, like, a script to read, So we can't do the exact same thing. And if we think that it will cause some kinda argument or disagreement, then we we don't post it. So, like, post approval? So, like Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Has to approve a post before it Mhmm. Goes on the page. Yeah. So okay. It sounds like we're does anyone else have anything else they wanna add or, like, discuss about that topic? So I think our first step is that, you know, as a group like, as a committee,
we'll email missus Adabo's office and ask if there's any guidelines first and then, that we should follow if the CEC is making, like, a group on Facebook and, like, you know, would they be able to also participate in it as well? Then this we could then we can go off and start making the Facebook group once we have, like, the clarity. Yeah. So I I either Laura or I, could just send a quick email with the reference for me and just kinda loop, this adobo in or something. Yeah. Yeah. That sounds great. Alright. Then let's move on to our next, agenda item.
It is our official d 30 Facebook. So I think this is, this is something that I think many of us feel passionate about. I'm going to I'm gonna pull up the site just so we can just, like, look at it together. K. I just wanna mention I know Whitney loves loves the person that makes our website, but I'm sorry. Like, it's awful. I I just need to mention Okay. Let's just talk about the website and not the deal. Okay. Okay. Don't talk about don't talk about my that's my dog. So you can talk about the website.
Yeah. We'll talk about the website. Okay. So That's all I See if it okay. This is full screen. So, and I'm just gonna just, like, kinda just narrate some of the issues I personally have with the site. So I would say from landing here, we've got kind of, like, some unusual site structure. So this is like, this part overall, like okay. Yeah. It makes sense to have your navigation up here, but, like, some of the code contrast stuff is a little bit dated. We have the language selection here. So, usually, it's, like, a little bit higher. So it's one of the first things that, users encounter.
There's not really a grid here, like, in terms of layout. And we what we want is, like, we want it to be really easy for people to grab the information and see it. And then there's some, opportunities here. So, like, this says NYC DOE Twitter feed. It'll be if we want people to see the feed, like, rather than necessarily just kind of, like, having this little widget here. It it could actually be parts of the feed so that you can actually see it and, instead of setting people off the site necessarily. I'm not saying you want people to stay on,
not to get into, like, oh, we want people to stay here, but more of just to kind of figure out what we want to kind of have here. And this could be a great opportunity for us to kind of really just zoom in on the latest information. And right now, it just kinda feels a little chaotic, with your eye not really having a good place to rest. Then, like, our we have a stronger call to action for our email distribution list so that we could have people join us. We have we have this nice honoring district thirty students area, but this could also be somewhere, like, where it's a dedicated space rather than down here at the bottom.
Many sites tend to have a footer that is like a quick site map so you quickly zip around. That can help with findability. So speaking of findability, like, a few few months ago, I was looking for the bylaws, and I wasn't sure where to find them because I thought it would be something, you know, nested, like, cut out here. And we have some opportunities here to improve that findability, because in the end, I think it's under what is the CEC because I asked Whitney where it was. And it's here, but there's, again, more opportunities here. So I and that's not even getting into specific pain points on specific pages.
So I think we could this could use a little bit of a face lift. I'm not saying we have to, like, totally throw everything out. Although, I would be happy if we threw everything out because I think there's a lot of sites that can meet our needs and still be accessible because a lot of what I'm seeing in terms of accessibility and I'm let me just move I'm fiddling around with the the Zoom UI is here, and I think this is accessiBe. So that's, like, kind of doing our accessibility first, which that's if I'm talking to accessibility experts, I guess, accessiBe is kinda controversial,
in terms of what it's doing, and how it's it fits in a greater accessibility world. So to me, I think we could move on to something else. I'm not saying don't give Bill a chance to fix it, but there's definitely parts of this where I think almost every page I want to do something different with. I agree. You know, obviously, the information being relevant and up to date is paramount, but we need to be able to digest it in a digestible way. And it's very graphic design is my passion right now,
to use a meme as a but, yeah, there's no hierarchy of design. The accessibility factor definitely, even, like, the way that PDFs are just kind of haphazardly linked to the the grid, non grid, it's a strange way of presenting things. It's a very, like, sort of DOS two point o way of showing things. So it's kind of from a bygone era. I'm wondering what would be helpful. Would it be helpful for us to collect other academic and or CEC websites that are well done or school you know,
that sort of thing and and say, here you go, Bill. Try and do something like this and give them a shot? Because I I know, like, miss McDonald's website herself. Right? It's it's a gorgeous website. And even president's council with District 30, it it's a very simple site, but it it's it's really nice. Like, nicely put, and they they use Google, and it's, like, $12 a month to manage. Well, this this is what I'm wondering. This seems like a a Yeah. Like, built from scratch website where now you have, like, Squarespace and, like, all these other things that have beautifully designed sites.
But and then the thing is when I log in to our CC website, it's I I feel like certain parts are not supposed in certain area and so it's it's a little scroll down to find things. It it doesn't show the full thing, especially on my phone. Like, I don't know if you guys see it. Like, it it should be a little off. I I don't I don't know how to explain. Like, I'm not an IT person, but it's just a little, yep. Yeah. We like, we we needed to be responsive because I like you, I do look at it a lot on my phone. So this is, c c five.
They're using Echalks, so it's fully responsive. And, I mean, I'm not gonna say if I take it, it's perfect. But And I think when he said, maybe he could give a a mock up. Yeah. Laura. Maybe we could give him a mock up and see if he can design it like that. Laura. Updating information, like, we can update it faster, maybe. I don't Laura, what do you mean by fully responsive? What is that? Oh, yeah. I'm not I'm not sure what that means. Oh, no problem. Okay. So, responsive web design is, it gets, it's a it's a way of designing, websites so that,
and you might have heard mobile first where you're designing for the smaller screen size. So this is a mobile view here. Can you see that? You guys can see, like, it's really small. Everything shifts around, based off of the viewport. So you have a mobile view here, and then you kinda got these, like let's see. This might be a, like, more of like a tablet view. And, and I'm just resizing my screen, and this page reflows. So you see this moves around. Depending on the page, like, you might have headers that become larger, and then you kind of get your, like, full screen. Bam.
And it's like that. So you see changes with your navigation. You see changes with your header images, and things shift. So that's part of our best practices, and we want to have that type of experience for our users because most of us were on the go, so we might be pulling up the site on our phone to give an answer about something with d 30. We want users to be able to, like, all the parents and children and the etcetera, to be able to come to our site and have that same experience whether they're on their phone, tablet, or full size screen.
Is that some is that something that's, like, easy to do? Like, is it something that's, like, sort of built into certain sort of platforms or software? Or is it, like, you know do you have yeah. Like, if I had like, I if, so I have, like, my portfolio on, like, Squarespace because I I'm a UX designer design software. So That makes sense. Like, Squarespace, like, just based on their templates, like, also, like, WordPress templates, Google sites, like, this is each talks that I'm on. They would be responsive. I'm pretty I'm, like, 99% sure the president council one is responsive. See.
Yeah. So you see how I'll pull it up with the phone. Yeah. Yeah. So, well, so Bill should absolutely be able to do this because people were doing this, like, a decade ago. So this is this should not be out of his wheelhouse. If we've we'd like to continue having a relationship with Bill. It is kind of expensive, but, like, I'm not I don't have the full picture of every single service he provides. So maybe he's providing more services than just, like, maintaining the site. Like, is he uploading everything for us? Yep. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. And we have them till,
like, the June. So, like, we have Yeah. So I I'm just talking about this right now because I'm like, okay. Let's just get it on our agenda. Yeah. Because if we let's let's go back to this site. So we haven't until June. And and if he's willing to make updates, what we could do is we could start with so I like, I usually think of things in terms of information architecture, in terms of, okay, how are these things looked? How is the site plan going? Do do this this, does this order make sense? Sometimes, like, you might wanna have something that makes that moves out because it makes more sense,
or you see it better organized somewhere else, and it's more intuitive. And then on I have, like, I have to figure out kind of and you and this is just me because I, based off of, like, work stuff. Like, it's making freelance sites is a little bit different in terms of what how you're thinking about it. But I would I would want us to revisit how we have the site structured, but also and also each page. Our landing page is really the that first impression. It's how people know that we're legit versus not being, like, you know, like, scam sites and stuff or just the wrong page. So that it it it's like our calling card for everyone around us,
in our community. So we definitely want him to redo that. Now we could look at other sites. I could, like, do a few iterations of, like, how we could redo this, so that we could have, like, a strong first impression, and we can see how that goes and also see how he executes on it. How does that sound as, like, a, like, a next step where we just kind of, like, sketch and talk about it? Okay. Yeah. Storyboard it up for him. That sounds great. Mhmm. Yep. Yeah. So what I'll do is I'll I'll sit down. I'll sketch a new landing site.
Also, I'll, like, do a little bit of information architecture. And by that, I mean, like, kind of over here, just making sure that everything we have here makes sense. Because I've seen a few CECs, like, in the last, like, week or two, and some of them have, like, kind of an interesting way of structuring their information, like, especially, like, in terms of, how they order certain things, and and we could talk about that. So that's that's definitely a discussion. And, also, it like, did he use so I'm looking at the bottom because sometimes it says what they use. Oh, edge. Oh, that's just him. Okay.
I guess I can inspect it. I'll look at that more of that later just because if you use some type of, something like a WordPress, something where you if there's a, like, templates and stuff, then we we have some ready built stuff. So it doesn't have to be, hey, Bill. I need you to, like, do this. A scratch built site, Laura. Is that right? It is. I Okay. I think it is, but I keep people like it. I mean, I learned Just this is web design in the nineties, and this is what my website looked like in the nineties. And now I don't have now I use now I use Squarespace because Oh,
funny. I don't wanna deal with coding. I mean, people used to be all like, oh my god. UX designers, make your own site. I'm like, why? I can use Squarespace and then spend all my time on my case studies. So, anyway, yeah. So I'm a little bit I guess I'm hesitant in terms of, like, having him go back at it if he didn't think anything was wrong with it this whole time. But then, again, we're his client, and he's not necessarily like, I'm just thinking, like like, you know, contractor client relationships. Maybe he's he just was not in the business of telling people,
hey. I think this looks bad. But, he should've. But I wonder if a a gentle way would be presenting some templates from echoc sites or WordPress or what you know, Squarespace and say, hey. Here are three examples that we really like. You could use this and or you could you know? Because it's just like I mean, I think most of us have websites of some sort. I have one for my business. I had one for CEC, and it's like, it's so easy to update the even from your phone, you can, like, update things. You know? Yeah.
That's the beauty of, that work being done by somebody else. You worry about the content, but the the actions are taken care of. Exactly. So okay. So I'll take those next steps. And then maybe, actually so can I ask return, Whitney can can I just, like, send those to the group, like, our community, and people give feedback, or do I have to, like, wait for like, do I have to make a formal meeting to do that, like, to go over those artifacts? I I think we can talk about it now, Laura. I think we're all okay with you just taking the lead and going to talk
the bill. I mean, that's that's what we're just supposed here. Like, we don't have to go back and forth. Like, whatever you wanna do, just picking the bill. I'm okay with that. Is everybody else okay with that? Yeah. That's Alright. Yep. Sounds like I mean, if you wanna if you wanna bounce ideas off us, like, I'm not gonna be receiving some emails. Like, if you're like, hey. This or this, this or this. Right. I'm okay with that. Okay. Cool. Cool. Cool. Great. Alright. I'm all like, I need to make a presentation and No. And present No, girl. Just send some links. If you're like, hey. This is a great example. This is a what not to do. Like, however you wanna do it.
Like, whatever your brain tells you to put it together as, send it to us like that. Awesome. We're all we're all smart women. We can figure it out. Okay. Great. Great. Great. Great. Alright. So let me put that I'm just gonna update my list, and I'll stop share. I'm excited, Laura. I am so excited. I I know you are. Okay. Alright. Then, next thing okay. So this one's the most layered one. It's cc post meeting communications. So I'm sure it's like, what? What I mean by, host meeting communications, all this is around
us being able to take all the all the work that we're doing, everything we're talking about within our our minutes, like, all of those, like, crazy minutes I've been writing, and take it and divvy it out into communication out to our community. So and I'm thinking of it in terms of phases because it takes time to kind of, like, stand that up. One thing is so we, like, we could and this is leaning heavy on having access to the AA's time. Like, not infinite amount of time, but I'm thinking so from the minutes,
we could have a quick blast that goes out as a newsletter in our, like, our mailing list of, hey. This is what we did, like, last week or I don't I don't have the exact timeline. And I'm thinking at the beginning, it will be, like, a little bit spaced out and then get a little bit more compressed as we get more into the rhythm of it. But a newsletter for, like, everyone that's on our mailing list, so they know, okay. This is what we talked about. Then the next thing, something where it could be a series for our, Instagram where it's things that we did.
Like, it just, like, hot things the things we care about. So, like because our minutes are like, okay. Here's what happened. But then, our newsletter is, like, these are the things that were really interesting that we did. Aren't we great? You should know. The our Instagram, things like that, and shareable. So we could share it to our Instagram. When we have our, Facebook stood stood up, we could share it to our Facebook. So it just increases the reach of what the CEC is doing, and people have more ideas of, like, oh, this is what's going on so that we can increase engagement. And then the third thing is a tiny executive summary that can go to,
principals, and they can include in their weekly newsletters. So that it's something just for families that are like, I don't know what you guys did. Is this important? So it's basically taking a big old hunk of minutes and then chopping it down into different sizes so that, we can increase our communication. And, also, since we can, and I'm I have a question about it. If we could use translation services, it can increase the number of people who know what we're doing. Because we have translation during our meetings, but, of, like you know, whenever I'm posting on Instagram,
oh, I did something. I don't I don't really speak other languages. And my mother-in-law is mean about translating things to the Bangla, so I don't get translations from her. Kidding a little bit. And so it's a it could be opportunity for us to have just kind of tiers of information that come out. And then it would allow us to have a greater reach. I'm not sure how much we can use the translations services that we use now for our meetings and our announcements for our meetings to to kind of send out different information afterwards.
So that's a question I have. So I I don't know how it works. Like, it works for CECs, but the trans you have to request the translations for base. And, like, in my experience, requested when I, like, when I worked in central and I, like, I needed document translations, it took, like, so long for them to do it. I don't know, like, if that what if it's different, if we have a different relationship as a CEC. But it it was, like, it would it just, like, took such a long time for them to actually fulfill those requests that it wasn't even, like, worth it. Like, we were beyond what like,
it was past the time that we needed it. It's, like, that's how long it had been to fulfill those those, like, written translation requests. Yeah. Historically, it does take a long time. We also do have the Office of Language Access coming to our next CEC meeting. So if you can hold off with that question, you can get it straight from the source. So that might be helpful. But to Nadia's point, yeah, like, that's why, you know, mister Wallace, like, the day after, he's, like, doing, you know, translation, etcetera, because it does take and it's, like, business days, ten business. But, yeah, I think OLA asking them when when they come to the next meeting would be really helpful so you know exactly,
like, what it is that we need to do if that is something in mind to to reach more people for sure. Okay. Alright. Alright. So okay. I'll I'll I'll have that question written up for them. But in the meantime so what I wanna say that I really like this idea because I do feel like we do so much, and the general public has no idea. And I don't think the schools have any idea. And the major, point of communication with the parents and the caregivers is, like, the parent coordinator or, you know,
direct access to the school. So if we're able to give them something digestible out of all this, it sounds great. I love it. Awesome. Okay. So what I'll do is I'll do a mock of, like, what it might look like. I okay. So this year, we don't have to do anything with the newsletter, but, my school started using s'more s'mores, and they're so cute. Yours did isn't it so cute? I think they're so they look so nice. The newsletters look so weird. This is. I don't know what this is. Let me let me show you. It's it's like a template for newsletters for schools,
and I think it looks amazing. And I, they just switched this year. And I was kind of like, wow. We just did everything on class, Dojo. I'm like, Dojo ed out. Oh my gosh. Let me see if I can find it. Let's send let me look for okay. Alright. Let me, okay, pop this out. Okay. I'm gonna share. I love sharing my screen. This is, like, the most fun sharing. Linda just shared a link. Oh, she share okay. So this is, our principal sent a newsletter last Friday. And so, like, s'mores, let's use style of it. She she's never styled any of this before.
So, like, she's this. She's got, like, links to things. And it's just a really nice way that you could, personalize, newsletters. There's just, like, some nice visual hierarchy. It is. It it it makes it easy, and it's just really easy to send everything out. And all the all the teachers who send us emails use S'mores now. The, the PC does as well. And, yeah, they have these little templates, and it's cute. So we actually use school connect status, and she posts us the S'mores in every Friday. So the school connect PTA uses it.
We post our stuff on it, the parent coordinator and everything, and it translates into, I think, she said about 600 languages. Yeah. So this is I'm sorry. So so when I like to when I post things, I like to write it out, and then it translates itself to whatever language your your school connect status is. So that that's our smallest. So she she's, like she posted all of the dates up. So, like, she puts this in our school connect where it translates into all the languages. So my my principal is a parent, like,
likes to write a lot apparently. So hers is a sometimes a little lot, but, like, it does translate into different which is I I think it's great to use, just because, you know, not everyone understands English, and they can just convert it and translate it themselves. Tada. Mhmm. This is super cool. Yes. I think that's something we could probably think about using. I think she said a cost and she I should I mentioned she mentioned the cost. It it is a little pricey. It's a pretty penny. I remember I remember from SLT last year that she mentioned it.
It's in the thousands. Yeah. Like, from my school. And the so, like, because she uses like, my principal uses her own money to get it because she thinks it's very good to use, and we do love it. So it is a little pricey, but, you know, but it it is a really good newsletter that she sends out. But then I my other school, the principal uses gamma, and then he leaves voice mails every week, every Friday that also translate. So I don't know if that would be a good idea to use also. So yeah. Awesome. I love it.
Like, gamma is a AI PowerPoint creation? No. They they call because you know what they call it gamma. It's New York City Public Schools. The the things that, you know, when miss Hidalgo sends out, and it's the NYC Public Schools, they call it gamma, apparently. So that that's what he uses too. At least the middle schools, I think most of them use that. And then he does, like, the phone call home. Maybe we could do something like that if people sign up for the newsletter. We could send, like, a phone call where someone reads, like, a transcript, and then, like, try to send it to the parents.
I I don't know. So it does translate because it leaves a voice mail. So sometimes, you know, I don't wanna listen to his voice. It just needs a really long voice mail. The phone call thing is, like, a touchy topic because I remember two years ago when I was on the SLT meetings for 02:30, some people are all for it. They love it, and some people are like, please stop calling me. So you gotta kinda find the balance. And and if people are down for it, because who wants to talk on the phone or who wants to you know what I mean? So you gotta just see what majority wants. Because I'm okay with it because this I I don't pick up,
so I just read it. So, I mean, I'm okay with it. Pick up. I don't think You you read the transcript of the voice mail. I I feel you. Yep. Yes. Because it's every every Friday at 07:15, I get a phone call from the school, and I never I just send it to voice mail and just a bunch of transcript within a few days. I'm like, okay. But now I know what's up. Awesome. K. Alright. Let me let let me just round up our next steps. Okay. So for our post meeting communications, I'm gonna make, like I'll just, like, make a little fake version of our newsletter. Like, what is it?
And in Canva, just kind of like, okay. This is what a post could look like. And then, executive summary. And we could talk about okay. So is this something that, like, would and how we want to kind of, like, rearrange some of that on because I think, like, once we start looking at it and then we can, we can start template that, like, making templates for things and then get Leslie or AA, who I'm very excited to get involved in this. Like, boarded to working on this. Laura, you have so many jobs.
So many hopes and dreams for Leslie? I do. I I hope she knows. I'm like, I'm so excited. I can't wait. Oh, because I think this is going to we have amazing things, and it always bums me out when people don't know how great and how much work we're doing, and that they could be involved. It's just kind of like you guys could be involved. You could be, like, really a part of this. And, I think when I was running, people just like, what do they do again? Mhmm. And I'm like, they do a lot. They do a lot. Mhmm. Yes. Yeah. Okay. So we have a question.
We've got we've got some mocks. We'll talk about the mocks. When when does Leslie get out of, like, trading? Next week after the holiday. Okay. This time. Alright. So that's those are the things I have on the agenda. Oh, is there anything that anyone, like, was thinking about or anything that they're like, oh my gosh. I I'd like us to tackle this, or I'd like to investigate. I think this is a great starting point. I'm I'm excited to see how everything comes to fruition. It's gonna be good. Mhmm. Okay. Cool. Cool. Cool. Yeah. Thank you so much. Thank you so much for, like,
putting so much thought into this. And your excitement for it because it couldn't be me. I'm not into stuff like that. So I see your vision, and we support you. Excited. Thank you. Laura and I got to ride, what, an hour and a half to Brooklyn last week together, and she was just gushing to me about it. I love it. I'm I'm excited. So excited. Oh my gosh. Okay. Alright. So then it sounds like we're in a very good place. Yeah. Let's see. Alright. Then maybe we could do adjourn? Is it yeah. That's good. Okay. Well, like, thank you everybody for coming.
