Alright.
0:59:38
Just one more quick question.
0:59:40
I think the schools that CUNY runs like Hunter Signers and others are excellent.
0:59:44
Are you planning to do how many students do you have in those schools?
0:59:48
And are you planning to take over more schools because CUNY does a great job?
1:00:37
Alright.
1:00:38
Thank you.

We continue to partner with the Department of Education.
0:59:56
I don't think that we are foreseeing taking over additional schools.
1:00:01
There might be opportunities with some of the early college funding that the state has made available for additional opportunities there.
1:00:08
Right?
1:00:09
And we're very proud of the 19 schools that we have that we have there.
1:00:15
You know, we're also partnering one in in the new space in in SPARTS.
1:00:20
So we want to continue to do some more.
1:00:22
Maybe not necessarily taking, you know, control of the schools but in partnership
1:00:26
With the and also really, really expanding Future Ready, College Now, all those are great pipeline programs in which we are de facto teaching the next generation of teaching.
1:00:36
So thank you for your support.
