ADMINISTRATION

Berkeley High, this is the dean of attendance, with a reminder that anybody
who misses 30 periods of class without an excuse will get blocked from
school dances and from work permits.  Every three tardies will count as one
unexcused absence. And yes, they will accumulate all year.  If you attend
Saturday school from 9am to 1 pm, you can excuse six of your most recent
period absences. In Saturday school, tutors will help you with work you
missed the days you were absent. Free breakfast, too. If you want to sign up
for Saturday school-speak to me or anybody in the attendance office.  Space
is limited to the first 30 students who sign up.  Our first Saturday school
date is coming up November 10th. After that we'll have Saturday school every
other week.
