▶ 6:07 Speaker 5: Okay. And then next, the Bridge memo. So enclosed in the packet is a memo from Lisa Lewis, who coordinates the Bridge volunteers through the school year. The Bridge is a partnership between the school and community that provides volunteers to support our Melrose Public Schools programming. So this memo highlights some of the work that was done over the past year, includes the second annual MHS Career Day, an intergenerational concert and social time, social college panels for Melrose High School upperclassmen, partnerships with the peer leaders, the eighth grade Civics Day, professional development opportunities for our teachers, partnerships with the PTO, Community Reading Day, as well as many other activities and endeavors. So I just want to thank Lisa Lewis and the Bridge for their volunteers and for the support they provide. If you have any questions for the memo, I can certainly try to answer them or pass them along to Lisa to find future answers for you.

▶ 7:01 Speaker 1: Okay. Any questions about the superintendent's update?
