AUHSD | 2021-2022 Health and Safety Plan AUHSD GOVERNING BOARD Christopher Severson, President Message from the Superintendent Kristin Connelly, Clerk Christopher Grove Bob Hockett Nancy Kendzierski August 2021 Student Member: Dear Acalanes Union High School Community, Isabelle Bennette We have all felt the prolonged hardship of the COVID-19 pandemic. Our experiences differ, but your sacrifices for community, family and personal safety and wellbeing have undoubtedly been significant. We know that the disruption to regular on-campus instructional and extracurricular programs last year has brought additional challenges to many. And we know that students benefit from in-person learning, and safely returning to in-person instruction must be a priority. The foundational principle to our 2021-2022 planning has been to provide access to safe and full in- person instruction to all students. Throughout our planning process, we have been following the requirements and considering the recommendations and general guidance of the California Department of Public Health, reviewing the general advisory guidance of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, and following the local orders of Contra Costa Health Services.

  • Tau Beta Pi CA-Alpha the Engineering Honor Society University of California, Berkeley Annual Chapter Report : Fall 2011-Spring 2012 Dear Reader
    Tau Beta Pi CA-Alpha The Engineering Honor Society University of California, Berkeley Annual Chapter Report : Fall 2011-Spring 2012 Dear reader, It is with great pride that I present to you this compilation of CA-A’s projects for the 2011-2012 school year. Through the combined efforts of our dedicated officer corps and membership, our impressive class of new initiates, and our faithful alumni, we were able to accomplish truly spectacular things this past year. We held a record-breaking 46 fun/social events and 31 company infosessions, most of which were open to other engineering students, along with numerous professional development events and service activities. But what truly exemplifies the success of the chapter over the past year is the fruitful cultivation of our new, amazing projects. Taking the call of noblesse oblige to heart, the theme of our past year was outreach, both to the College of Engineering and to the surrounding Bay area. CA-A made it our mission to provide opportunities for engineering students and Bay area community members. In the Fall, CA-A unveiled for the first time its College Bound event, an all-day event with the goal of promoting post-secondary STEM education to underrepresented groups. Nearly 200 high school students travelled to the Berkeley campus to hear about student research projects and participate in fun hands-on engineering modules. Then again in the Spring, CA-A rolled out its Engineering Open House, a more focused event to give high school students interested in engineering majors an insider’s look at the life of an engineering student at Berkeley.

  • Fixed Route Service Near Schools
    To: O&S Committee Date: October 12th, 2017 From: Bill Churchill Reviewed by: Assistant General Manager of Administration SUBJECT: Fixed Route Service Near Schools Background: As requested by the Board, staff has prepared this report to provide a broad perspective of K‐12 student passengers using County Connection services. It is important to note this body of work did not evaluate potential student ridership to colleges since the issues they present are significantly different from those related to K‐12. The goal of this report is to provide the Board with an understanding of the challenges posed by providing students with service adjacent to schools, an idea of how widespread these services extend and hopefully the value of providing the services. County Connection currently provides service adjacent to 44 schools represented by nine different school districts across its service area. These schools range from elementary schools to high schools and include some continuation schools. Please refer to Attachment A for a complete list of schools and districts. In order to gain a system wide perspective of bus routes and schools, staff developed a service map with an overlay of schools (please see Attachment A). The service map provides a rather clear perspective of the breadth of service to schools in Central County and demonstrates all member jurisdictions receive a significant level of service designed to meet school bell times. Routes outlined in blue represent standard public transit routes while those in red represent school trippers. For perspective, most red lines would have been blue lines prior to the 2009 service reduction.
