The weather has been beautiful and our senior class heads into their final weeks of high school in some cases with highly visible senses of accomplishment and celebration as well as subtle and not so subtle anxieties around the big transitions that are upon them.<o:p></o:p></p><p>We are extremely happy for our seniors and wish <i>all </i>of our students and families a very successful last few weeks and a restful summer. <span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p><b><u><span style='color:#6600CC'>The Question of Streaking and Other Behavioral Expectations for the Close of School...Seriously</span></u></b><o:p></o:p></p><p>As always, student safety is at the top of the agenda and one issue that has historically created significant disruption at the end of the school year is the pseudo-tradition of a "senior streak" at Berkeley High School. While it goes without saying that this event is in no way endorsed, approved of, or sanctioned by the high school, I wanted to be very explicit and clear about why the administrative team feels that we need to discourage and eliminate this event on campus and be clear and consistent with consequences for those who participate.<o:p></o:p></p><p>The opposition to this event from the administrative team's perspective is rooted first and foremost in the disruption it causes and the challenges to student safety and campus safety that it creates. While there are various perspectives on the event itself, regardless of one's feelings or moral standings relative to the act of streaking, the administrative team's position is simply that a public school is not the place for this type of behavior, and that it has historically created and contributed to what we feel are unsafe situations on campus.<o:p></o:p></p><p>Our experience with this event over the years has been one that causes significant disruption to the school environment and poses a host of logistical and crowd management challenges that consume an unacceptable amount of time for both safety officers and administrators. As school rules and guidelines often give consequences to students for being disruptive in class, it seems logical then to have consequences for students participating in what constitutes the single largest disruption of the school year.<o:p></o:p></p><p>Last year, and in past years, the event itself–now well-publicized through the rapid channels of texting and social networking, saw an estimated 1200 to 2000 students abruptly leave class to stand on the courtyard to watch students running by without their clothes. Moral objections are varied and I suppose relative, but my safety staff and administrative team was intensely concerned about the dynamics created in the crowd last year as the spectacle also brought significant numbers of non-students to the neighborhood who then attempted to come on campus.<o:p></o:p></p><p>Additionally we have concerns about unsafe driving and traffic around the school with carloads of students often circling the perimeter looking to gain access for this annual ordeal.<o:p></o:p></p><p>These are a sampling of the numerous concerns we have about this activity, and I believe they provide sufficient reasons in the context of student safety and crowd control for us to make additional efforts this year to discourage this event and to provide clear consequences for those who participate in advance.<o:p></o:p></p><p>We ask families of seniors to discuss this with their students and to be clear about the consequences we are issuing for those who choose to participate.<o:p></o:p></p><p>Students who are caught on campus without their clothes (imagine having to write that to parents?) or who are in any way involved will be suspended for a day and owe the school sixteen hours (16) of community service. <o:p></o:p></p><p>Diplomas for seniors involved will be held until the required 16 community service hours are performed. <o:p></o:p></p><p>Suspensions may obviously prevent seniors from being on campus during a portion of finals week and so students will have to make arrangements to make up their finals on alternate days or on Friday, the make up day, and the day of graduation.<o:p></o:p></p><p>While the morality of such an endeavor may be relative or subject for debate, what is not in question is that Berkeley High School is a public school and therefore public space, and like a crude or off-color joke, what one may find humorous or acceptable in <i>private </i>or among close friends or peers, may not be appropriate in spaces shared with people who have different perspectives or values. <o:p></o:p></p><p>Students insistent on disrobing in public are encouraged to seek fulfillment of that impulse in venues other than school and in consultation with their families.<o:p></o:p></p><p>Elsewhere, our expectation is that students attend and remain in all classes for the duration of the school year, and that cell phone policies continue to be observed and adhered to; business as usual is the best recipe for the school at this point. Abiding by our community agreements for the remainder of the school year will allow administrators and safety officers the space to do the numerous things they need to be doing to close out a school year and prepare for graduation rather than spending that time dealing with lower level disciplinary issues where students potentially jeopardize their participation in finals or graduation festivities. <o:p></o:p></p><p>Parents, please support us by reiterating to students that school policies and school rules will not change for the last two weeks of school and apply equitably to graduating seniors as well as all other BHS students.<o:p></o:p></p><p><b><u><span style='color:#3333FF'>Advisory News</span></u></b><o:p></o:p></p><p>Moving into next year we will be rethinking how we meet the goals of the advisory program.

A staff vote showed that a very large percentage of the staff still supports the outcomes and the focus, but we did not come to the necessary consensus on having monthly set-aside time be the channel or vehicle for the pursuit of those goals.<o:p></o:p></p><p>My next move will be to make determinations about how best to share the responsibility supporting these outcomes across the entire faculty, and I will do this initially in discussions with the teacher leadership team. <o:p></o:p></p><p>Our approach to these outcomes must be a shared responsibility as I genuinely believe that the school needs a systemic approach to these outcomes. These outcomes are not simply the responsibility of counselors and support staff, but will require again, a concerted effort by the entire school if they are to be realized with more equitable results for all kids.<o:p></o:p></p><p><b><u><span style='color:#006600'>Green Academy Decision</span></u></b><o:p></o:p></p><p>In what was a very difficult decision, the administrative team, after lengthy consultation with the teachers and teacher leaders involved, has decided not to run a ninth-grade cohort in the Green Academy for the 12–13 school year. We owe a collective acknowledgement and appreciation to the Green Academy staff who have made enormous professional and personal investments in the Green Academy and done tremendous work in the area of curriculum and contextualized learning. <o:p></o:p></p><p>The Green Academy will continue to run its program for their 10th, 11th, and 12th grade cohorts in the 2012-2013 school year. Most California Partnership Academies run grades 10 through 12. <o:p></o:p></p><p>In lieu of a ninth-grade cohort, the administrative team, in consultation with Green Academy teachers and district staff will immediately begin exploring how green education will be made available to students as the remaining cohorts begin graduating next year. Challenges related to the current student assignment/choice policies at Berkeley High, and projected results of the lottery run, left us with too few students to have a viable 9th grade cohort for 2012-13. <o:p></o:p></p><p>Recruitment issues coupled with issues generated by the current choice system have created imbalances and community perceptions, both real and unfounded, that have, in our opinion, served as significant barriers to diversifying the Green Academy in terms of both ethnicity and levels of academic readiness. Our hope is that this decision to rethink and reimagine the best channel for the dynamic and thoughtful program that our Green Academy staff has created will in fact also accelerate and enrich discussion already underway by the board's policy subcommittee around the current system of learning community placement at BHS.<o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><b><u><span
