“Finals Prep / Make Up” is a dedicated time for teachers to be available to, and meet with, students. Most importantly, teachers can use this time to provide accommodations for students with IEPs or 504 plans. Teachers will be available to meet, however, students need to confirm with teachers in advance.

Examples include hand sanitizers, stuffed animals, fuzzy socks, candy, etc. If you can, please donate goodies using the container OR bring them with you to the event. You do not need to be a part of either of these clubs to participate in this event.

The Berkeley Community Scholars High Hopes program is a needs-based college success program designed to provide advising, mentorship, professional development, community support, and resources to motivated and talented college-bound seniors from Berkeley public high schools. Scholars also receive scholarship funds (the amount depends on their program) to assist with the costs of college. We prioritize students who are either living in the lowest economic quartile, who identify as a member of an underrepresented group on college campuses, or who are the first in their family to attend college.
The Bachelor's Degree High Hopes Scholarship application is currently open and will close on March 9th at 11:59 pm.

Divest from Fossil Fuels
Did you know that CalSTRS, the California teacher pension (or retirement fund), has over $15 billion invested in fossil fuel companies? This means teachers’ money is being used to fund the fossil fuel industry. The fossil fuel industry is responsible for violating the rights of indigenous communities and causing disproportionate health and safety issues for low income and Black and brown communities. By investing in fossil fuels, CalSTRS is strengthening the fossil fuel industry rather than transitioning away from it, which worsens the future and present day impacts of the climate crisis! Additionally, taking money out of fossil fuels has been proven to stimulate growth for retirement returns since fossil fuels are rapidly depreciating. There's only 1 solution: CalSTRS must stop investing in fossil fuels, so that our teachers’ retirement funds support climate solutions and not the declining oil and gas industry.
To address this issue, we are making a petition of BHS signatures to present to the CALSTRS board members. Everyone can make a difference by signing the petition and encouraging their friends and teachers to sign it too! Sign the petition for our futures!
Check out the infographic in the email bulletin and around the school for more info.
Divestment 1:30 minute video <https://youtu.be/L6RPBDqgRm4>
We are a group of students and teachers passionate about fossil fuel divestment supported by organizations like YVA, Fossil Free California, CTA Divest and more.

Notification of Non-Discrimination Policy
The Berkeley Unified School District is committed to providing a hostile-free working and learning environment. The District prohibits discrimination, harassment, bullying, intimidation, and retaliation, based on actual or perceived race, ethnicity, sex, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity/expression, pregnancy, childbirth, breastfeeding/lactation status (related medical conditions), religion, color, national origin (including language restrictions and possession of a driver’s license (issued under Vehicle Code), ancestry, immigration status, physical or mental disability (including clinical depression and bipolar disorder, HIV/AIDS, hepatitis, epilepsy, seizure disorder, diabetes, multiple sclerosis, and heart attack), medical condition (cancer-related and genetic characteristics), military and veteran status, marital status, registered domestic partner status, age (40 and above), genetic information, political belief or affiliation (unless union related), a person’s association with a person or group with one or more of these actual or perceived characteristics, or any other basis protected by federal, state or local law, ordinance, or regulation in any program or activity it conducts or to which it provides significant assistance.
Discrimination is different treatment based on a protected characteristic in the context of an educational program, work or activity without a legitimate, nondiscriminatory reason that interferes with or limits the individual’s ability to participate in or benefit from the services, activities, or privileges provided by the District or includes an adverse employment action.
Hostile environment harassment occurs when a target is subjected to unwelcome conduct based on a protected characteristic, which is both subjectively offensive to the target and would be offensive to a reasonable person of similar circumstances/characteristics and is sufficiently so severe, and so pervasive to interfere with or limit an individual’s ability to effectively work or to participate in or benefit from the services, activities, or opportunities offered by the District. Harassment may take many forms, including but not limited to, verbal remarks and name-calling, graphic and written statements, or any conduct that may be threatening or humiliating. Harassment based on any of the above protected categories is a form of unlawful discrimination and will not be tolerated by the District and can result in disciplinary action against the offending student or employee.
Upon witnessing an act of discrimination, harassment, bullying, intimidation, and retaliation, based on actual or perceived protected characteristics, school personnel are required to take immediate steps to intervene when it is safe to do so. Once a school/office has expressed notice or reason to know of such conduct, whether carried out by employees, students, or third parties, it should take immediate and appropriate steps to investigate, determine what occurred, take prompt and effective steps reasonably calculated to end the conduct, eliminate a hostile environment, if one has been created and prevent the conduct from occurring again. These steps should be taken regardless of whether an individual makes a complaint or asks the school/office to take action. Complaints are protected from retaliation. The District prohibits retaliation against any person who files a complaint or an appeal, reports instances of noncompliance, discrimination, harassment, bullying, and intimidation, or who participates in the complaint-filing or investigation process. This nondiscriminatory policy applies to all acts related to school activity or school attendance within any school/office under the jurisdiction of the Berkeley Unified School District.
For more information, or to file a complaint please contact:
District Title IX Coordinator/Compliance Officer Berkeley Unified School District, 2020 Bonar Street, Room 117, Berkeley CA 94702 Phone: (510) 486-9338; Email: complaints at berkeley.net <mailto:complaints at berkeley.net>
