and in particular, staff superintendent kevin truet and sallow pez who together with my staff olivia scaven worked diligently to make this program work and grow i would like to thank chief sir and his officers officer murray and officer bara for providing the students with their available training and insight. finally i would like to thank the students parents and community for its support -- by the way, one of the other things that happened was when the program started, one principal two principals said that the parent engagement in this was at a very high level and hadn't seen certain parents be that engaged, so that's another benefit of this program that is put out parents to participate, so i believe the program makes our crosswalk surround our schools a safer environment for both pedestrians and motorists and ensures safety of families and students getting to and from the schools. now i would like to welcome associate superintendent of student, family and community supportblessing kevin truet to start us off. >> do i have to turn this on in any way, you took care of it. see how they do
