Ms. Waller updated the group that the audit is supervised by Justin MacKenzie, who has worked on several RISE audits. The on-the-ground auditor is Latel Dulcine, who is new to RISE. He conducted a site visit in October and may schedule one more. 

Mr. Leveille expressed concern about the RIHEBC process, and Ms. Waller said that she is waiting on submitting pre-work to RIHEBC because RIDE has asked for clarifications. Ms. DaCruz discussed the fact that a competent construction team is critical because RISE's network team is lean. She shared that she has not hear of any objections from city politicians.

Ms. Waller reviewed the document and noted that it is too early in the year for meaningful projections. She plans to schedule a variance meeting with school management in January. Ms. DaCruz said there are one or two staff positions open.
