/w adjourned

/w Paul: appreciates their time. Nice way to leave it tonight was written in an e-mail: "Can we please talk about the domination of the Twain-Longfellow populations at the track meet by combining the Longhorn and the Tiger?"

/w Longfellow: really hard to start with a child that you know nothing about. Starting over with bringing in testing and behavior assessments. Suggests starting with top 2-3 priorities.

/w Shawn: this whole thing is kinda squishy. It is evolving and changing, which makes it hard to write up a synopsis to send home to parents but he understands how important it would be to do. Even his presentation has changed over a month or two as more discussion occurs.

/w Phil: work session recordings are available for all our past discussions too! If you are interested. Longfellow rep: what about our families? Send something home with what we know, and what we are still trying to figure out. Be open and transparent. Unknowns = fear.
