[BHS Etree] ADMIN: Update on Today's Activities

[BHS Etree]

PLEASE do not reply to this email, contact  Erin Schweng erinschweng at berkeley.net<mailto:erinschweng at berkeley.net>

Update for BHS families as of 12:30 pm:

Administrators who are with students at UC Berkeley report that they have been peacefully protesting and speaking since their arrival. We also have some recent information that other area high schools may be joining our students at UC Berkeley. While we have no specific concerns or information about anything negative occurring or being planned during what has been an overwhelmingly peaceful demonstration, we are concerned that as the day progresses at UC Berkeley and in the downtown area, more and more adults, groups, and organizations will join the demonstration.

Thus, we feel it is our responsibility to notify parents that our control over the proceedings out in the community, and our ability to supervise students off campus will likely diminish as the day grows and other groups join. As a result, we want to encourage all students to return to campus now that lunch is over, and are asking parents to help us by texting or calling your students and asking them to return. Administrators and safety staff with them will be relaying this same message.

Thank you for your cooperation and we will continue to stay in communication via phone and email with you all.

BHS Administration
