  • Receive an Update on the Affordable Student Transit Pass Pilot Program
    Memorandum 8.2 DATE: September 15, 2016 SUBJECT: Affordable Student Transit Pass Pilot Program Update RECOMMENDATION: Receive an update on the Affordable Student Transit Pass Pilot Program. Summary The 2014 Transportation Expenditure Plan (TEP) includes implementation of an affordable student transit pass pilot program in Alameda County. Its purpose is to test and evaluate different pilot program designs of an affordable transit pass program over a three-year horizon to identify successful model programs that could be expanded and sustained with additional funding sources after the pilot program period. In May 2016, the Commission approved the school sites for Year One of the program (2016-2017 school year), general program parameters for each site, and the shortlist of 36 schools which is the potential pool for additional school sites in year 2 of the pilot program if feasible and if funding is available. During summer 2016, the program parameters were refined in close coordination with each school site to support an effective pilot approach to meet the program goals, and staff entered into agreements and contracts with the applicable transit agencies and school districts. Pilot programs were launched at the school sites in Alameda County that are receiving transit passes. Background The Alameda County Transportation Commission (Alameda CTC) has undertaken the development, implementation, and evaluation of an Affordable Student Transit Pass Program (Affordable STPP) which it is piloting in middle schools and high schools in the four Alameda County planning areas starting this 2016-2017 school year. This pilot program provides a vital opportunity to assess student transportation needs in the county and develop an approach to meet those needs through implementation of a pass program.

  • 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.

  • Celebrating Our History, Reflecting and Looking Ahead
    September 2012 Newsletter Celebrating Our History, Reflecting and Looking Ahead Welcome to the 125th year at Head-Royce School! What a profoundly humbling and inspiring moment for us all to consider. For one and a quarter centuries, Head-Royce School has been successfully dedicated to the important work of educating children, creating community and transforming lives. I would imagine that my night before the first day of school was like that of many of our students. I couldn’t sleep as I anxiously thought about the next day. After a fitful evening, I awoke to a sublimely perfect East Bay morning: sun infused fog, 55 degrees, and warm breezes coming up the hill from the Bay foretelling the warmth that would envelop us on the first day of school. That first morning, in what is now one of my favorite new school traditions, we welcomed our bustling, smiling, eager students on Lincoln Avenue with balloons and gifts as they were dropped off. In the midst of the high-fives, handshakes, and hugs my thoughts kept coming back to four sentiments: community, tradition, hope and promise. Fourth graders Jessica Furstein and Erin Epstein celebrate a new school year. I was struck by the fact that this opening day, our 125th opening day, was magical because of the diverse, engaged, intelligent and fun community of teachers and learners who have come together. edition of Nods and Becks, the school yearbook. I was impressed I knew that our founder, Anna Head, would be beaming with with the quality of their writing, the earnestness of their voice, and pride at how the school has evolved from her vision.
