If you could talk a little bit about that too. So the exploratory in terms of the structure, they obviously because they rotate through on a trimester system. In sixth grade it will look different than seventh and eighth. In terms of the world language, we are in an exploratory phase with our exploratory wheel. So what we really are thinking about is how do we ensure that we are basing the world courses, so that what we are doing in those courses is getting students ready for the next level. We think it is a step in the right direction. It will be offered in cases where students want to take an elective. I think it is for students who entered, but for the sake of approximating redundant, students who entered in pathways in kinder and first grade then were able to take it through the eighth grade. And parents or students who didnt make that choice for their children didnt make that until high school. Its the first step to change that, but the first step to make that more equitable for a

Thank you, staff, for making this possible. So how long is a trimester and how is that going to work . Every 12 weeks. So one of the things that i also want to if you look at the exploratory courses as a sampler, thats for students just to take a taste, but they also have electives where they go deeper into the language. Were not saying the exploratory course will take the place of a fullon exploratory languag
