While the roll call remains open, Dinowitz notes the vote started at 9:00 AM and thanks teachers, students, principals, and school aides who arrive much earlier. He acknowledges educators who get to school before 8:00 AM and sometimes around 7:30 AM.

I just, we're still rolling, right?

Eric Dinowitz

We're still rolling.

Eric Dinowitz

I just want to, if anyone's watching this vote, and to all my friends and colleagues, I want to note our vote started at 9, and I want to thank all the teachers and students out there who started their day at 8 o'clock,

Eric Dinowitz

which means they got to school long before 8 o'clock.

Eric Dinowitz

I know many teachers out there get in school 7.37 o'clock.

Eric Dinowitz

So thank you to all the teachers and principals, school aides in Paris, who get to school nice and early, maybe two hours before we start our earliest vote.
