it into a school it proved not to be a good match and fortunately for all of us the city and the school board and the people had the courage to shut it down and attempt to conceive of something far greater i can remember mr. superintendant i don't think you were superintendent snafbs you were not rode by you brought me out for this first occasion in a room when the architects had what they had in mind and believe me what they had in mind was like yesterday compared to what we're looking at today, the effort was made starting with the concepts that had been done by those combiftdz and talented and well trained people they invited senate file i can't see

mother and you'll the other mothers they invited did school board members and invited people from every agency of city government and my daughter susan got the responsibly to show up particle for every meeting i don't know the total number of month to month but prosecute a transformation of that concept to the reality that you have so logically described mr. mayor and to what we're standing in so what we're looking at and the projections of things that will come this august when the first 2 hundred students are not limited to an incredible journey a journey that's been carefully clagsd cataloged and videoed and recorded it's been careful written about and will be written about because mr. superintendant i think

henceforth, in every future bond measure that will be the book that the citizens of the city will be able to look at and see what's possible if they're willing to do with what they've done with the projects called schools and mr. mayor you were right when you asked me did you get a chance to open a school i said no, i didn't i thought and thought and thought mayor ed lee is so blessed everything good happens on his watch (laughter). >> it's like the lord was mad at gavin not me but really great things and mr. mayor this is one of the great things i look forward mr. principle you are recruited no warrant were

issued for you in chicago (laughter) pursue i came out to san francisco long before this building was to be opened and you started the process of doing what you need to do to make sure that not only does the building reflect the dreams that the board and the superintendent and the citizens had when they said let's do that but you notified the community to get to know you on a firearm basis i said someone you going to demetrious school it's not demetrious school (laughter) i don't care what he's been telling you i am just overjoyed and ion above the entire willie brown jr. willie brown clan we are

looking forward to the first day of school and i can't imagine ever having as many people as you said that made applications i can only assume the concept that has been so appropriately described has caused the families of senate file i can't see and others to sign on but the physical realty of walking through those fabulous doors i agree there ought to be goals (laughter) somewhere maybe around my portrait (laughter). >> but i think when we walk through the doors you're going to be inundated there won't be 365 next time around but multiples and believe me mr. mayor i suspect the sdieshltd of this school at the middle school

level will exceed the desirability of families trying to get into school it will be the power point of the rest of the schools reflecting the commitment you've made mr. mayor to the development the families in this city and i'm more than over enjoyed that that carries the name that my mother gave me thank you (clapping). >> so how in the world does anyone follow willie brown mr. mayor we're so proud that building that be fitting our legacy so thank you for honoring us today, there maybe a lot of folks that drive over the bridge that don't call it the willie

brown bridge but under will be a lot of the kids going to the willie brown jr. middle school before i turn it over to principle hobson ladies and gentlemen, this didn't happen without enlightened people policymakers people that are elected and i'm very, very proud to introduce the members of the board of education our president emily murase and our commissioner shamann walton and our immediate past president of the boar urban forestry and hydra mendosa thank you, thank you for being here (clapping) i want to thank someone he likes to work behind the scenes and didn't wear his hard hat but
