From the transcript
Yeah, my concern in here, it has to do with just the capacity of schools. We're at 2 to— at 99% plus. I think it's over 100. And, um, and because we've made the changes that we've had, we don't have the capacity to even reduce classroom sizes in that school without changing locations and making other issues. We've got a couple of activities going on, and I don't think Abbott Loop Community Council has really signed on to this the way it's going forward.
