we understand that sfusd is facing a lot of cuts from the state. we just hope that, with the additional funds, if the city does decide to do this, that these funds would go towards student-supported services, that the money would go not necessarily to the administration, but that the students will see it. a lot of the cuts will affect the students. for things like credit recovery, that is one thing we thought of. adding a 7th period to the schedule would help students and a lot and they would see the benefit of these funds. that is where we are at. we thank you for your time. >> hello, supervisors and commissioners. i just graduated from high school and i am going to harvard in the fall. to reiterate what she said, last meeting, the use commission has a really overwhelming question about how this money will be spent and what kind of authority the city would have. from my own experience, i really support the school district to receive the money. give the money to the school district because they face such a huge deficit. we do not want any more furl
