Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Negotiated salary and benefit increases to teachers will account for about $4 million of that. Forced growth and other areas is about $1.2 million. Then, as Members know, there's about $3 million in the pupil/teacher ratio reductions for phys. ed. and trades. So those are the larger numbers in there. Those are the largest categories for the increases.
