[BHS etree] CORECTION: Volunteers needed, Parking next week, School Spirit

[bhs at idiom.com]

Oops--in my call for help which was posted on the etree a few hours
ago, I said makeup day was Tuesday, Aug. 31.  It is indeed on Tuesday
but the proper date is August 30. See original posting below, with
date corrected:

1. More Help needed next week and Make up Day.
Many many people have volunteered to help next week and the first two
weeks
of school--but not quite enough.  During registration we need from
8-12
parents each shift (morning and afternoon, Monday-Thursday) and at
least
four per shift for the makeup day on Tuesday, Aug. 30. In addition,
we will
need people the first two weeks to deliver schedule changes and
collect
attendance (opportunities to travel the school!) Energy is high the
first
few weeks and its exciting to be around the school--plus you will
make a
real difference launching the school year smoothly.  Please let me
know if
you can help.

2. Parking.
Next Week, August 21-25 All Volunteers (registration, organizer and
uniform
sales) may park in the school lots (tennis courts or next to football
field). Ruby Taylor in the front office and I (Janet Huseby) in the
jacket
gym will have yellow parking passes. Please come by and pick up one
to put
in your front window.  Unfortunately, after next week we will not be
able to
offer parking as a sweetener as the lots will be jammed with
teachers.

3. Registration: where to go
Registration is taking place in the Jacket Gym (the newest Gym). You
can get
to it by coming in the main doors on Allston Way and walking back
through
the cafeteria.

4. School Spirit
New Assistant Principal Amy Frey asked me to ask the volunteers if
they
could wear or have a touch of red or yellow--just as a festive
welcoming
gesture. Go Jackets!

5. Below is my original (amended) request for help has a more
information.

Please let me know if you can help. I can be reached by email  or
phone
(info below).

1. Next week is orientation.  Picture IDs will be taken and schedules
distributed. We need, and would be very happy if we had, eight
volunteers
for each shift to help distribute the schedules and collect forms.
This is a
wonderful job, not only are you helping the school you have a rare
opportunity to see all the students in your child's class--fresh from
summer
vacation and excited to be back. The energy is high!

The shifts are Monday, August 22 through Thursday, August 25 MORNINGS
8:15
to 11:30 and AFTERNOONS 12:45 to 3:30.

2. We will then need four volunteers EACH for morning and afternoon
on
 Tuesday, August 30 to help with the makeup distribution.

3. On the first day of school we need five volunteers before lunch
and two
after lunch.

4. For the next three days we will need two or three volunteers
throughout
the day.

5. For the first nine days we will need four or five volunteers to
collect
attendance records from  classes for the first nine days of schools.
This
job is very important.  At the beginning of the year, some classes
are over
enrolled and others are under enrolled due to "no shows." But classes
can
not be shifted or increased  until it is confirmed that the no shows
really
have not shown.  To do so, attendance must be carefully collected and
recorded.

6. Then just as ever thing is settling down on September 13 and 14 we
will
need four volunteers from 7:30 to 9 a.m. and three from 11:30 to 1:30
p.m.
This last set of volunteers will be helping check students in and out
who
are taking the makeup  California High School Exit exam.

If you can help on any of these times, please let me (Janet Huseby
jhuseby at pacbell.net) know. Not only will you be greatly appreciated,
the
beginning of school is an exciting time to be on campus.
