speaking i'm speaking to the pta why we need to continue one more to the pta and seeing the relevance of the outreach i want to point out we'll accept this we don't understand it. we don't see why the pta has a problem with the land use issue we prefer the meeting first in september as opposed to september 18th >> thank you. so opening it up for. if the public could please contain our comments to the matters of continuance (calling names) >> sir, i'm sorry this is just public comment on the matter at hand of continuance only. the reason this is germane the reason we're asking for continuance a lot of the people in the neighborhood don't know of this project happening what i want to is there was a public meeting that was referred to in the packet so far as i don't know what the notification was but there's is problem when people in the neighborhood don't know this project is happening so i - how the public notification go process should be open more for the people in the neighborhood to know what's going on >> thank you. thank you. >> hi commissioners i'm andy blue i'll request a minim

and unfortunately when i wanted to say has been side transacted of a pta president i actually don't recall how he got elected but anyways we have a member of the executive board i don't know who he impounded we haven't had a meeting yet you heard earlier is that the school principle was contacted through december we've not had our first pta meeting not our first back to school meeting so i want to say we met a few parents met with the developers on tuesday. and we talked to them, they were in agreement they'll move the driveway it is some kind of mandate they have not sure who mandated it but they submitted it so i don't know who but the focus is to try to get the exit on south van ness i was part of a pilot program they started calls uh-huh called the home zone traffic calming to make it satisfactory for the neighborhood we were the pilot program to make it satisfactory for the kids and reindirect traffic away from the center zone to move it is to the center street i am asking you cancer the safety of the kids i'm here for the kids i'm sorry you had to hear the letter from the pta.

extracurricular activities in the kids schools and the kind of things that are classically american ptaactivities selling things they are great community building fundings even after controlling for socioeconomic status as surprising as an american parent. i've been lied to all these years. they talk about their days in the movies and the news. and of course read them when they were little but the better they did on the test by age 15 even after controlling socioeconomic status. so this is something that teenagers noticed and felt like they had a lot more autonomy in the countries. i ended up serving the teenagers who have gone to the extremes to see the patterns in what they found and there were remarkable patterns. one thing they saw seven out of ten x. to delete the students felt they had less freedom in the u.s. and back home and a seven out of 10% baseball more activity in the classrooms than back home and i mention this not because i think that technology is a bad thing but it comes up again and again when you talk to kids and teachers. a lack of focus on the actual learning so if

it which we haven't seen in the past and i think that has caused a stronger relationship between the pta and the school. i am at the local level and i would hope that the school committee has a tremendous amount of trust in the folks working there but when you look at it this is a great opportunity for the teaching profession as a whole to become very clear about what it is that we are teaching to the student and why and i think that causes anxiety and the general public but i don't necessarily have to deal with the same pushback so i think the implementation has been ongoing and it's gotten better as it's gone along and it's not perfect out of the gate but it's gotten a lot better. >> so you are hearing that it's going well -- >> [inaudible] >> okay my microphone is not on? can you hear me now? now it's on? what makes me pleased us to hear at just to hear at the local level that it's going well as that is what keeps me at night. up at night. at the state level we bring the standards in and work collaboratively with our folks in the field but at the end of the day they have to implement
