Hello Fellow Yellow Jackets!

It is almost spring and that means more sunlight with warmer weather. It 
is also means a fresh list of student activities at BHS and the 
beginning of elections for 2017-18 student leadership positions. As we 
learned from the most recent national election, voting is a major way 
that you, the citizen, can speak directly to the policy leaders in 
government positions. Although ASB elected positions don't create state 
or federal policy, they do have an effect on types of things that happen 
at BHS. Tell them what you think by reading through the attached 
candidate booklet and VOTING for the best candidate!

2017-18 Elected Candidate Information Booklet (version 1)​

Also, Major props to the Boys Soccer team for their championship! Also, 
shout out to the Girls hoops team who are working their way to the 
finals. Here are a few other events of note:

*Message from BHS Yearbook staff:*

**

The Yearbook wants your voice!

The BHS Yearbook staff is looking for students to share their opinions 
about Berkeley High, its cultures, and Berkeley in general. This year, 
we want to hear what students think, and we'll feature some of these 
testimonials in 'spotlights' throughout the book.

About the survey <https://goo.gl/forms/JzqPuOubIVXdfcry2> -- we know 
there are a lot of questions, but *you do NOT have to answer every 
question!* We're interested in quality of responses over quantity, so 
feel free to pick and choose which questions interest you.

Here is a link <https://goo.gl/forms/JzqPuOubIVXdfcry2> to an online 
survey we've set up for digital 'interviews' (If the link doesn't work, 
you can paste this into your URL bar: 
https://goo.gl/forms/JzqPuOubIVXdfcry2). We'll select the best responses 
and insert them into this year's book.

Thanks for your help, and thank you so much for sharing your unique 
perspective!

-Yearbook Staff


U-N-I-T-Y, WE FLY HIGHER AS A TEAM!!!
