for example, if you look at clarendon, -- yes. that is because in one, we said take out 50% of the seats. instead of saying it has a capacity of 100, we say it has a capacity of 50. and then, take out all of the children who live in that area going to a citywide school. we basically said one is every child who lives in the attendance area, regardless of where they go to schools, what does that look like? the other one says skim off the top, all of the children going to city-wide schools and all of the seats that are city-wide schools. >> did you take an equal percentage from each area? >> we actually look at where they are currently going, and we look at the number of seats in kindergarten that are reserved for city-wide programs. for example, instead of saying how many kids are at the japanese program, we just said kindergarten, how many of all of the seats that are available in kindergarten are for the japanese program? >> do you mind if i rephrase that because i did not understand it the way you set it? >> share. >> s --ure. --
