Looking for an opportunity to volunteer at BHS? Become a Writer Coach!
WriterCoach Connection (WCC) is a rewarding experience working with students
one-on-one during class time on their writing assignments. Writer coaches
help students strengthen their writing and thinking skills by giving them
constructive feedback and building their confidence as writers. The time
commitment is only 1-2 hours, twice per month, with 9th and 10th graders in
Community Partnerships Academy. Coaching will be on Friday mornings twice a
month, beginning in October. This is our 10th year at Berkeley High!

You do not have to be a writer to be a writer coach - WCC provides hands-on
training to give you all you'll need to be a terrific coach. Community
members of all backgrounds, ethnicities and walks of life are welcomed.
Training sessions are beginning in September. For the complete schedule or
more information, go to www.writercoachconnection.org (click on
"Volunteer"). Or contact Sahib-Amar Khalsa, site coordinator, at
sakk at mindspring.com or 510-237-6963.
