▶ 58:09 Speaker 6: Um, next on our agendas, the update on the superintendent's search, I will invite Mr. O'Connell to share, uh, his experience. Thank You. Thank you, Madam Chair. Um, interviews started last night. Um, they will continue through this week. Uh, we have a great screening committee, uh, great diversity of backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives. Uh, our colleague, Ms. With's, leadership of the committee has been exemplary. We have, um, some very good candidates, likewise, great diversity of background, experiences, perspectives, and we expect to have, uh, finalists for the school committee, uh, the school committee's consideration, uh, in short order. Uh, I, I would just note, uh, by way of thanking the screening committee members, uh, we've met twice previously. Uh, we met last night. We'll be meeting two more times this week. And we've reserved next Monday as a meeting date, if and as needed. So it's a fair more than a fair amount of work, uh, for these folks. Uh, and on behalf of the committee, I would just like to publicly, uh, thank the screening committee for this work.
