Yeah, people are very concerned because as a parent, you don't want to just put your

0:24.9

child on the bus and then send them off to school and have not any say into what's going on in

0:30.4

their education. So a lot of people are paying a lot of attention to what is going on with the

0:36.0

school board races. You know, it really seemed like COVID was the eye opener for a whole bunch.

0:40.8

People I've heard from so many people who and many of them were non-political people who said,

0:45.3

you know, I wasn't only paying attention, I should have been and then my kid was forced to be home

0:49.4

and I was home with my kid or kids and I saw the things they were learning and that's just not
