I will I'll hit on some of the main themes that did that we talked about one was walking away from buildings is going to be unpopular with as we try to sell the bond to the community we talked about consolidating and we talked about Washington made one of our group members were upset because we have a emotional attachment to all these buildings were going to consolidate what are we going to walk away from the middle school has a lot of good space it's obviously not up to par for a 24 Troy Middle School so we're drawing on a lot of the principles of the last Bond I think one of the main concerns one of the things that we could do differently was a lot of the voters were concerned about having the new exist or the new space for the 7 8 Center so close to the new space for the high school new addition for the high school we still do we hear from our teachers on the videos that we need to utilize existing structures like the Performing Arts Center and the existing gyms in addition to additional Jim's if we're going to have a 7/8 facility on the same square footage start on the same acreage as the high school okay can we separate those buildings a little more kind of appease those voters who were concern about having such close proximity and shared space with the 7th and 8th graders along with the high schoolers maybe put them on opposite ends of the property so those were some of the big things that I think we discussed and talked about I think the big I'm concerned that we all agreed upon where we we are all terrified every time we get news of safety issues at school and addressing safe and secure entrances not only at the at the ice middle school areas but at all the schools has got to be number one we can't just just go on without a secure entrance is that's got to be number one but as far as adding existing spaces we like the high school we'd like to put some of the 9th graders on that site as well would like to consolidate 23 let's just say fewer Pre-K five or Pre-K 4 facilities anything else from our group I'll say this for the 4th time now since we haven't a new audience but we talked yet we talked about walking away from a building that that people are going to be upset about that everyone went through the middle school everyone in town who is from here went through the middle school so there's a lot of attachment there's a lot of sentimental attachment to the middle school if we put that on the ballot I think we're going to lose I think we all want something has a chance of passing in our community especially after we failed by such a wide margin last year we talked about walking away from the middle talk about walking away from the Middle School I think that's going to be really unpopular because people are attached to it I'm not saying that it's a bad plan to walk away from the middle school but I'm going to say that's going to be a tough sell anything else we talked a lot about the kitchen I can't really speak to that okay
