I grew to like the community during that period of time.

There's also a great legacy in terms of working with the unions. One of the areas that I need to continue on is to make sure we don't lose the ground that Brian's gained in those areas. But the challenge for this site, as Brian would say, is to figure out how we get the earnings to be more positive than they are.

Any time people do business locally, the money turns over a multitude of times throughout the community. With any large, nationwide business, money goes out of state. It doesn't have time to turn over in the community.

It's costing a lot more, and we're getting a lot less from the community. It is a strain on the budget.

It was a big win for our community. We had great fan support. They were excited.

This is not just a school problem. This is a parent and a community problem as well. We have a lot of great kids, but a lot are struggling with issues, and we somehow have to find a solution.
