Hello BHS Community,

We would like to thank all community members that have already donated prizes for our BHS Staff Appreciation Week raffle. This is one last call-out as we prepare for the week of festivities next week, May 8-12. 

Spring has sprung at Berkeley High School. We have less than 10 weeks left in the 2022-23 school year!
 
The week of May 8th is Staff Appreciation Week. Like every year, 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
 
The staff raffle will take place Monday, May 8th - Friday, May 12th. 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 Monica LaTour.

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.
