Shout out to: Nicole Fitzhugh Amanda, Ariel, and Olivia College counselors and CCC staff Counseling Staff Pablo Maylin, Ariel, Amanda All my teachers Chloe Burke Susi Lopez & Denise Fullerton Chris Strelioff Members of the MCSA, Berkeley College Advising Program and CCC staff!

Class of 2021 Senior Information

Info about resources, events, and contacts will be shared constantly over the next few months.

Class of 2021 Senior Letter – frequently updated doc. Please refer to the Senior Letter to stay up-to-date as it is always the best first place to look for anything regarding graduation, diplomas, transcripts, activities, and other end-of-the-year items.

Senior Portraits – BHS Yearbook will accept up to 2 pics following these specific guidelines (linked here) by November 30. Although we won’t have the convenience of LifeTouch taking portraits on campus, each senior is essentially being allowed to find their own photographer. Although it may not be as convenient as on-campus pics, there are benefits such as having more control over the time, date, styles, safety protocols, and cost. It is not a perfect solution, but everyone is adapting as best they can to the tremendous amount of uncertainty regarding plans even one month out from now. And this could all change in the spring, but for now BHS Yearbook has fairly strict deadlines to ensure that they can put together a yearbook by the end of the school year. If you do not submit a senior portrait, we will use your junior year photo instead.

If you have questions please dm on Instagram @berkeleyearbook or email bhsyearbook@berkeley.net. Submit photos on eShare.

Roots and Shoots – Local photographer that is offering socially-distanced portraits for a fee as early as this weekend.

Cap & Gown Orders – If you would like to take and submit a senior portrait in your Class of 2021 cap, gown and tassel, then order soon! Achievers Inc. is accepting orders online, over the phone or by mail. As soon as you order your cap and gown or announcements, class rings and other grad items, they will ship it directly to your home when they begin shipping on October 26th via FedEx.

Get Berkeley Bowl to use Compostable Bulk Bags!
We all know plastic is terrible for the environment, especially plastic bags. This flimsy material is the least recyclable of any plastic and kills 100,000 marine animals every year. One easy switch grocery stores can make is adopting the use of compostable bags instead of plastic bags for loose produce. In order to make change on a larger scale, we need to start locally, and that means holding local businesses accountable for their plastic consumption. Making this switch for Berkeley Bowl would not be any more inconvenient for consumers nor would it be more expensive, but it would be hugely beneficial for the environment.

BHS Student Mock Election

  It is cliche to state that this upcoming election is the most important one of our lifetimes, but also very true. Even though most high school students cannot place a vote in this election, you can have an impact in other ways. You can educate your older voting contacts about the issues. You can work at the polls. You can pre-register to vote. The more aware and engaged we all are, the better this will serve our community and democracy. BHS is hosting a student mock election that closes on the afternoon of October 5th with BHS results to be announced later in the week. Students check your email for the ballot if it isn’t past the deadline.For more info on California voter registration, please visit the BHS Leadership website. Remember 16 and 17 year olds can PRE-register to vote and 18 year olds, you can register online to vote in this year’s election up until October 19th. Make your voting plan today!
