[BHS Etree]

PLEASE do not reply to this email. Announcements are reviewed in the BHS Main Office by Vice Principal Tammy Rose bhsmorningannouncements at berkeley.net <mailto:bhsmorningannouncements at berkeley.net>

Greetings Students: 

The library will be closed after school today (Wednesday). We apologize for the inconvenience. We will be open again at 7:30am on Thursday.

Please use caution
Students and parents, please be cautious near the bike lanes on Milvia, all around campus, and in the community. 
Use blinkers when pulling off the road, hazard lights when stopped, and ALWAYS look for cyclists in the bike lanes before opening doors during morning drop-off, pick-up, and when picking up students during sporting events/practices.  This is a serious issue that can result in fatalities and serious injury, both to the cyclists and potentially students getting in/out of cars. 
Thank you for your attention to this matter. 

BHS STEMTec (Science, Technology, Engineering & Math) Club is launching Thursday, January 30 Room G204 during lunchtime. The club will be inviting speakers from different tech companies and STEM related fields to share what they do and their background. They will also sponsor community service projects e.g. members will volunteer with local after school programs introducing kids to engineering through Legos. Additional activities like field trips, Hackathon and eSports tournament is being planned.

 Do you need to be technical? NO. Ms.Talley will lead all sessions! 
 Things our girls DO need:
Someone who is committed to all 10 sessions.
Someone who is creative and a problem solver.
Someone who is ready to encourage and help lead her to believing in her own solutions!
I am looking for any women, or HIGH SCHOOL girls who are ready to give back in a big way by encouraging 
and leading our middle school girls into a love of STEM and invention! 
 Our goal is 24 mentors so that we have a one-to-one with every girl in the program!
 Please contact me with ANY questions or interest!! amytalley at berkeley.net <mailto:amytalley at berkeley.net>.
