*Prom 2024* plans to be a memorable evening with the city skyline as a

Check @juicethejackets <https://www.instagram.com/juicethejackets/> or

updates as we approach the prom date.

*Prom Policy*: In order to attend prom, students should not be involved in
conduct that violates education code and school rules from January 1 -
March 18*.* If there is a violation of the education code and school rules
you will be excluded from prom. The attendance office sends students who
have 30+ unexcused absences a letter home notifying them that they cannot
attend Prom.

You can earn yourself off the prom exclusion list by showing improvement in
your attendance.  You will need to complete a 2-week attendance card that
you can pick up from the attendance office. You must have no unexcused
period absences or CUTs during your 2 week attendance card and it must be
completed before March 11th (end of quarter 3). You can attend tutoring
with teachers or in the CCC. For each hour of tutorial, you will earn 1
period of credit.  If you can get your unexcused absences count under 30,
you will be removed from the Prom Exclusion list. Contact Ms. Tesch
cassandratesch at berkeley.net with any questions.

*Sobriety:* For your safety, any guest suspected of being under the
influence or in possession of an illegal or controlled substance, either
when arriving or during the Prom, will have their parents/guardians

will be responsible for picking the student up as all school policies and
subsequent consequences will be enforced. Let’s have a joyous and safe
celebration!

*Free & Reduced Meals Verification* Families should complete a paper
application or do so online with the EZ Meal App

discounts to school events (prom, graduation, etc.) among other testing
discounts if they have completed forms on file with B.U.S.D. Once
determined to qualify for free & reduced meals, Nutrition Services will
send a paper copy of the eligibility letter to the mailing address on the
application or by email. The email notification will show as *"*

check your spam file in your emails. *To receive the discount, this paper
copy or digital photo of the eligibility letter will be shown to school
officials overseeing the school event.

If a household needs another letter they should contact Sara Leon either
through saraleon at berkeley.net. This information is protected by right to
privacy so we are not able to provide this information to minors or someone
other than the head of household  through email. Nutrition Services require
up to 3-5 days to process their request as these do not tend to come in one
at a time.
