[BHS Etree]

with questions.



Spring has sprung at Berkeley High School. We have 10 weeks left in the
2021-22 school year. Normally, around this time of year we have year-end
concerts, performances and activities are being planned, and the talk of
prom and graduation fill the hallways. However, due to the pandemic, this
year has been a bit different but that didn’t stop our teachers and staff.
They still continued to tirelessly support our students.



The week of May 2nd is Staff Appreciation Week. We would like to shower our
staff with treats and surprises. We received lots of positive feedback from
the staff for the events we planned in the past year's week of
appreciation. Staff workrooms were overflowing with all sorts of delicious
foods and decorated with bouquets of flowers. They were so grateful for the
support and surprises the week brought for them. Local businesses and
parent donations made it all possible.



 We are looking for different types of donations to brighten a staff
member's day:

·  Flower bouquets from your garden or local store

·  Raffle Prizes/Surprises: get creative



This year, we will be delivering all gifts and items to our staff safely
throughout the week.



The raffle will take place Monday, May 2nd - Friday, May 6th. Raffle items
could be coffee cards, gift certificates or items you have made and would
like to donate. Gift cards sitting in your junk drawer waiting to be used
but ignored are welcome. Regifting is totally appropriate here! Please
coordinate all raffle donations with Tiffany Sutherland using the contact
info at end of this message. She will be accepting gifts beginning
tomorrow Tuesday,
March 22nd and would like to have all gifts in hand by Wednesday, April 20th
.



Thanks to our generous community, in the past years, we were able to give
away a weekend in a Laguna Beach condo and a dragon boat cruise as grand
prizes. Last year, we received over 130 gifts to raffle off that included a
4 Piece Golden State Warriors Fan Pack and a $500 gift card to The Shops at
Tanforan.



Some suggested raffle items:

·  Coffee gift cards

·  Gift card to any restaurant on Shattuck where staff could grab lunch

·  Itunes, Amazon, Target, Hulu or Spotify gift card, DoorDash, UberEats,
Audible

·  Gift card to a local bookstore

·  Gift card to a Michael’s, Hobby Lobby, or a local fabric store

·  Coffee/tea mugs

·  Reusable mugs/cups/bottles

·  Donate a service that you provide: yoga class, haircut, bike tune-up

·  Memberships to local museums or galleries

·  Flower arrangements for a staff member to take home to enjoy.

·  See’s candy

·  Bottles of wine



Thank you in advance for helping make this a special week for our staff.
