baby. how the teacher went above and beyond how the teacher checked on them and how the teacher when we first lost his wife cooked and sent home with the child dinners in case they wouldn't go hungry that's itself kind of teachers we have so that's why we say we could fill the room with gifts and not thank you enough you're going to create the future san francisco that is filled with abnormalities and business and future teachers that are going to be able to pay it forward. i'm reminded of a parent that talked about the fact they've have been displaced not because of eviction but a fire and the principle right when the fire engines were leaving in the

middle of the night the principle showed up to the home and show you found out through the word of mouth the family lost their home and shupd and loaded everyone in his vehicle and took them to his home. so you're an example of the principles in the district i know if i asked you, you would say thank you but i'm representing many colleagues, we know that but i'm going to ask a favor just take it in (laughter) this is about all of you today, i join president for your and commissioner winning and mr. mayor in a city where the mayor didn't have the control of the schools that's not a force
