i am here in support of -- my name is carolyn mcdaniels and i'm a product of the bay view hunters point as well. and i'd love to talk to these folks that just left here, but i wanted to say that miss marshall -- this young lady that just left, i call her my daughter. our daughters all went to school together. miss marshall taught them how to run programs when my daughter graduated from high school. she not only ran the summer program for the bay view hunters point baptist church, she also ran an after school program. she was -- they were the first ones to be involved in the african american parade and i've always been with her as the parents. i support her and everything she does, everything she has put her finger on, i can actually say has been successful and i really would like very much if the board would hopefully support her as well as we do in the bay view hunters point area. thank you very much. >> hello board of directors -- school board people. i usually listen to you on the radio so it's kind of interesting to look at you. i'm here because virginia marshall came into my life t
