*Striving for Racial Equity with BHS Anti-Racism (BHSAR)*

Hello all! We are BHS Anti-Racism, BHSAR, a group devoted to achieving
racial equity here at BHS. We are trying to open up an office that would
help bridge the gap between students and admin to hopefully come up with
solutions to the large achievement gap present at Berkeley high. We want to
come up with innovative ways for students of color to get access to the
resources available, and communicate with the administration about racial
issues that need to be addressed. If you identify as a student of color,
please help us out by completing  this google form
