[BHS Etree] BUSD: Safety Alert

[BHS Etree]

Dear Parents or Guardians:

This morning, just before school, two BUSD students were approached by a male individual in a dark green minivan near the corner of Telegraph and Oregon Street. That individual attempted to convince the two students to get into his van. The students refused, made their way to the Willard Middle School campus, and notified staff who in turn called the police.

Soon after, reports indicate that a similar attempt by the same individual occurred with a third student in the parking lot of a store at Telegraph and Derby.

All students are currently safe, and all campuses throughout the district have been alerted.

This is an unsettling reminder of the need to regularly discuss safety and interactions with strangers with our students.

The Berkeley Police Department is involved and we will notify principals and parents of any additional relevant information as it develops.

VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: Dark green minivan
SUBJECT DESCRIPTION: Latino Male with brown and tan baseball hat and has some facial hair.
