Yeah. And then another thing that occurs to me is one thing we can anticipate is going to come up is that we have one of our elementary schools that quite full at this point And so I curious is that something that going to have to be addressed as part of this process So is the way that that gets addressed Superintendent Board of Education Proposition O levy agenda motion carried What was a core classroom is now a special ed classroom, or it could be an intervention classroom. And so we want to make sure that as we're looking at what the capacity is of the building, that we're seeing what's the highest and best use. And so is there opportunities to repurpose some spaces? So one school district, for example, what we've taken is they were two grade-level classrooms Superroportion O, levy, agenda, motion carried. All right, we need to find something that's a little bit more dramatic or a little bit more costly than that. Okay, thank you. Mohini, do you have any questions? Or Lucia? Thank you so much. I just wanted to point out, and for Leo and Pam and the community too, Thank you. Our last board last year identified two goals, two priorities. They were community engagement and a long-range facilities master plan. And through your presentation and your scope of work, you are helping us achieve both of those. And I think that's really incredible for many reasons.
