As of 1 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 4 we had 1,660 boys and 1,647 girls enrolled at Berkeley High for a total of 3,307. This total includes students enrolled in Independent Studies but not B-Tech. Registering this many students, distributing textbooks, selling organizers, collecting forms, handing out schedules is a massive job. It could not have been completed without the wonderful 181 volunteers that started working on Monday, August 20 with the freshmen registration and continued up until today delivering schedule changes and helping the Attendance Office with the annual census. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'>We would also like to give a special shout-out to Betsy Mitchell and Lisa Sibony who stepped up as volunteer captains for sophomore registration and Cafe Clem--located right next to the central library and owned by a BHS family--which delivered two trays of savory and sweet treats every day of registration to help keep our volunteers going. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'>To paraphrase Charlotte's Web, this is Some Community.
