From the transcript
Um, I, I wanted to start with I appreciate the work that Lisa Miller did— Lisa Miller from our Communications Department did this evening, being able to celebrate all of the amazing work that our staff has done to help welcome our Western Alaska kids into the district. The Denali Award winners was awesome. I would love to see more of that celebrating our amazing staff and students and featuring them at future board meetings, um, not just at the one. So I would love to see it happen more often. Or I heard many folks in the, in the audience who, who commented how they really appreciated being able to come and celebrate and recognize and, and cheer on all of the great work that's being done at ASD.
