<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you for passing this information on. We have heard this request before and at this point just don’t have the capacity to do this. The standards must be in a word doc when submitted to the legislature so that is how we have to build
them. It is on the list, but we just currently don’t have the capacity. <o:p></o:p></p>
