Great job so far, lets ramp up the effort. Holiday Meal is December 11 and 1
in 6 Alameda County residents use the food bank.  Donate tomorrow - bins are

2. BART tickets are here!  Please pick up your tickets in room D224.

3. Lost and Found: If you have anything lost, please go to the Parent
Resource Center by the library.  If you don't pick up the items, they will
be donated at the Holiday meal to those families in need.  

4. Check out the Senior Steps this Wednesday at lunch for a special musical
guest - Thomas Nicholas!  He is an actor from American Pie and now musician
touring with his band, TNB.  So be there at lunch to see him up close and
personal, get an autograph and maybe win a prize!

Safe School Plan for BHS.  The Safety Committee is a sub-committee of the
School Site Council and is charged with creating the School Safety Plan.  If

is for you!  For more information come by the On Campus Intervention Center
