Yeah.
2:12:06
So now the kids if they're watching, they'll hear that.
2:12:12
Now now there's gonna be an update.
2:12:17
Some some CBOs had reported issues with my school, d d y c d connector and the enrollment process for some Verizon 2024.
2:12:27
How does New York City public schools coordinate with NYPD to ensure seamless enrollment for students?
2:12:32
So

leading up to each phase of the application process from the application release to when the offers were being made to the wait list process with our ongoing series of convenings we had New York City Public Schools present and go through each phase of the portal.
2:13:00
On the back end, we've been working really hard with New York City Public Schools and making sure that the data between both agencies right, and make that process as seamless as possible.
2:13:09
But as you can imagine, pounds and pounds of data going across 2 different city agencies, and we were able to do that seamlessly as well.
2:13:17
So that's a big infrastructure win in terms of the work that gets done, but that doesn't go without the number of potential challenges.
2:13:26
Right?
2:13:26
Because it is a different system than what folks are typically using throughout the school weird.
2:13:32
They are used to the DYCD Connect, and now that shift to my schools could present a number of challenges, including access to the portal itself.
2:13:40
So whenever those issues did come up, we were able to escalate and provide support work throughout the process.
2:13:46
But we hope that as we continue and to utilize the same system because that's the other piece.
2:13:51
Right?
2:13:52
We went from a different system prior, and this one being new and enhanced that the ongoing out years WILL BE MUCH MORE APPROVED.
