And I was hoping you could talk to us a little bit about the way that you've brought all people on board with your adoption and talk about the importance of that stakeholder engagement.

Yeah.

Thanks, Jen.

One of the kind of foundational beliefs we hold in our district is that an exemplary school district is the result of a collaboration among its students, staff, parents, and community.

And so that means all of the things that we introduce and the things that we do really require that collaboration among all of the stakeholder groups, not just a one-off, not just top down, It has to be something that incorporates the voice and perspective of everybody impacted by that.

And I think when you when you do that, you have an opportunity to really get an array of diverse voices and perspectives.

Right.

And that's a great place to start.

Yeah.

If...

You need to be able to get the shop floor motivated and involved first, and then once that, for me anyway, once that ground is kind of broken and you got more people involved and they want to achieve it, then it just kind of naturally filters up because then you can start saying at the, at the SLTs and your quarterlies and six months and stuff that actually we're, we're doing this, and it's going really well, and you can see this in the, in the trends of the lines.

They're running better, less breakdowns, less money to spend on breakdowns.

And we, we go certain conditions, don't we?

You can just, you can just do targeted, uh, courses to, to bring your skill levels up in either the bits that you're really interested in and just push for that, which, which is where your passion comes from, or the bits where you think that you're weak.

And it, and it takes, uh, engineering managers and hiring managers and all these other people in, in the big companies and stuff, that when they take these young lads and young gals on, instead of saying, "Right, you're gonna go and do three, four, five years, and you're gonna get this certificate at the end of it," well, why don't we come and get you on the job? You work with the, the most experienced person that we've got on shift.

They'll mold you.
