So
[clears throat]
I was surprised.
for
so
out of community.
Sure. Um
Okay. So
the opportunity
we could agree as
what's going on number one. Um, number
two is
you mentionful
what it takes.
So the sh the
no. So
you know
anything close to it
does have to do anything in this
industry.
Um so
almost
and you know doing the regular
I would say like pretty much more or
less
and
I should get involved. Dolved.
I was also shocked at that point. I'm
doing this. Like, wow. I never dreamt
I'm going to do this.
And that was my main focus.
So,
you know,
to help and just as a volunteer
just
And this was this goes back.
Wow. Yeah.
a few weeks
actually
there's a need for a full-time
administrator.
Um
I took it on and that's basically me
administrator.
Solar business.
>> This is a good question. So originally
basically majority
is already
and then I found out
because this client in numbers in
mention in kinder does not mean that the
work is any less
especially
in advance.
Whatever.
Get to work. No, no, no.
Let's go.
So it was a very hard task and
this is ain't going to work part time
full time full time but you know full
throttle
to make
But this
basically
I can much as I can hold my business
fully invest
in
the tasks even though it's not exactly
so
was very similar
administrator I found out that sometimes
I was the janitor sometimes I was the
plumber
but the point was I had to juggle yeah
and I had to be me even though I was
But
mention include
needs a person.
You can handle this and this.
I could say
and I could mainly focus on
and
which I'm sure we'll probably get
the mention.
Hm.
Question. This is unbelievable.
So the question
was
expect
and it's basically words expect and
complain.
So I could say
And I could say
literally
and here's on the just to bring out the
on the flip side
is expecting
100% education.
It's not like sometimes a myth I don't
know at least I look at it like a myth
but I don't want to believe so as
like
expect has a very high bar
all the way
from the gas
says the curriculum
babysitting service
for a fact as they
is
whatever.
So
transportation
buildings right right so
I would start off first
this is number one in the mention 100%
and they have a high bar was licked to
fulfill that and I take responsibility
for that And I would say
in the beginning being in a leadership
position and could relate to this also
in my mind that nobody's ever happy
but I'm hearing it more and more as the
is
and
like transportation
Let's see what happens
and it couldn't work this year.
We got it done.
I would say when it came to the actual
physical location,
it's it could get better. It's not like
obviously we're not having kids, you
know, in a dungeon, but the progress
was on top and
I think at this point everybody is
I am very happy. Thank you.
for
to the million dollar.
Okay.
Arizona
school choice programs programs
in
So, this is the [sighs] multi- trillion
dollar question.
Um, and
I don't even know where to start with
this, but I'll go all the way back.
You know, when everybody's pitching in,
it's all nice and dandy, but
administrator
and
so that was really
[clears throat] the programs and the the
financials from the that's how it
started and like I said school was in
progress already I had no idea how to do
these things basically I forgot I I
never did it I had an idea of you know
but I didn't actually do it so I was
let's call the first day of my job and
we're already three months in the mo it
was not easy. It was not easy.
So
programs in the state of Arizona. I'm
not going to give a whole lecture right
now butto
student tuition organization
programs and it's which is the bigger
programs
constant work
which
this needs hustle hustle hustle 26 hours
a day
as
but this one commitment that I made
as
everybody's going to get paid on time.
There's no such thing.
And and if not,
sorry, won't be able to pay tomorrow
if we wait till the next day.
And it's it's hard for me to even say it
out. I can't believe it.
That
everybody got paid on time. Now after
the first year I was like okay wow this
was a
I can't imagine a second year and
mid
and so far
but everybody gets paid in time I can't
see it
gets
a teacher
stor
saying, "I can't even hear it.
system.
Yeah. And I was surprised.
So the programs
bring in taxpayers
donate their taxes to the STOs. It's a
whole
but that's the way we do it. We hustle
for ESA
was helping.
And
when I thought
you
could not believe it,
>> this went out of the account and it was
covered.
That's the only answer that I have.
>> ESA and STL. ESA is the regular school
choice program. Yeah.
>> ST program.
However, in the latest from the bills in
Congress
in New York, New Jersey.
>> Yeah.
Yes.
Right.
Education help. Whatever.
of the programs.
>> Um I could say overall the was very
cooperative. Um I will say for mention
it was a little bit of a shock that we
geared into a whole new phase of
food and efficient.
Now I'll add some people felt that maybe
I went too much like you're too you're
systemizing everything and like take it
easy
but is
We're not here. We're not here. I mean,
even if it was we have right now,
but we're we're here for more.
We believe
and we have to starting back the
foundation last year. So, some people
were not used to it.
So, some people had to learn it. It was
a learning curve for them. I you know
you have to get on the computer and fill
out that application.
Um
we actually see a difference
is what we got in return was
>> because
it was a very interesting analysis that
um why people wouldn't take it honestly
I I know in New York mentioned that
they're not eligible because of the
income bracket
>> but the income bracket to be eligible
for STTO is a very high bracket. So I'd
say majority get it and ESA there's no
bracket.
>> So everybody gets ESA. So definitely
getting one of the two. Maybe in a
separate episode,
but that's the
right.
>> Yes. Now
programs.
So
right that's a good question. So we
don't have the programs for below five
although it's and I'm not you know like
I said this is my commitment. This is my
responsibility to the to the as it's my
job
and a burden is a program for
>> Isa program is a program for them um a
daycare program not as juicyto and
everything but
to take off the burden from the parents
and we're working on it. Um
if it b no we do have to come out to
fundraising
um
and we do have a big way of how we
fundra
>> once [clears throat] a year which I
don't know if you know if you want if
you want to talk about that but it
happen okay so actually one of the
biggest ways that we fundra is in
youth we do matching funds
get any fund any donation was
they go and they match it. So this is
actually a big way
and we're really looking forward
and it's actually next
next

December 2nd any donation that we're
going to get I you could even donate
