00:10:17.200 --> 00:10:33.120
when we met with the city. Um, and just questioning whether we all remembered that, you know, we hired a behavior interventionist. Um, again, not the exact same, but as a I'm going to say a support for the district. So, in essence, the number meaning I'm going to

7
00:10:33.120 --> 00:10:49.440
say what do we have? Three counselors, two social workers, and then two behavior interventionists is seven. >> And it was a a grant that we had funding for for this. through through the Yep. Yep.

8
00:10:49.440 --> 00:11:06.160
know, go through the interview, come to the board and go, "Oh, we're having second thoughts." Yeah. You know, and so that's where this came from to put it back on was to have conversation of >> Well, if we hired, we would actually have one more support person than we
