Is it plausible to use the contingency fund to cover these costs?

It is clear to me that the eighth elementary is going to have to happen.

This pattern is fundamental to probably all Japanese art, particularly the performing arts or poetry. The Japanese feel it's actually the rhythm of nature.... Nature is a continuous process of beginnings, accelerated development and quick endings.

There's an enormous inner concentration that's necessary to have the proper bearing on stage and to fill out the simple movements with energy. Even when an actor is standing still on stage, there's still an energy projected from that body. The audience should feel it, all the way through the performance.

Yes. Is it a tight squeeze? Indeed, but should we need other monies for contingency purposes, it appears we have another $162,000 the board hasn't spent and another $350,000 in capital improvement funds that would not impact the construction of the eighth elementary school or the Norge or Stonehouse renovations.

I respond 'yes,' though I'm not happy about doing it.
