BHS Administrative Team<br>
</span></b><span style="font-family:"arial","sans-serif""><br>
Students, we want to acknowledge that today, across our country, people are
choosing to take national action by participating in a Day Without Immigrants
boycott. We here at BHS do stand as allies with our immigrant students and
staff, and we encourage those of you who are not immigrants to stand together
with those who are. You can do this by listening, asking how people are feeling
about recent national events, and letting them know that you are a safe person
to talk with. We as a school will be continuing to work on plans and a protocol
to keep students safe in the event of any Immigrations and Customs Enforcement
activity in Berkeley. We were aware of the worries yesterday spreading on
social media regarding ICE activity in the area, and we want to promise that we
will investigate any rumors immediately and let you know if there is any real
cause for concern. We stand with you, and we stand together.</span></p>

Here are a few reminders from the safety team: our expectation is that students

has ended. Students should proceed to Bridge, the CCC, teacher-led tutorials,
the library the courtyard, or off campus. We will clear the entire campus at
3:45. Thank you for your cooperation as we work to ensure a safe campus for all
