Community Service
帮助他人
The purpose of Middle Division community service is to provide opportunities for students to learn about themselves and their community. The program cultivates a spirit of social responsibility and encourages students to contemplate and appreciate the rewards of a lifelong commitment to contributing to their community. Our ultimate goal as human beings should be to weave service into our daily routine and not as a separate act preformed solely to satisfy a requirement. Middle Division’s community service program is one that seeks to instill a sincere feeling of social responsibility and appreciation within our students.

前高年级学生, Elias Tsavoussis ' 16, started this service initiative as a recipient of Berkeley’s 50th Anniversary Service Scholar Award. Elias planted the first library at Nassau’s Columbus Primary School. Sandilands Primary and Yellow Elder Primary have been subsequent Bahama Books program recipients.
Many of the books are sourced from the Berkeley 家长协会 Share the Love of Reading annual book drive. Prior to the trip, grade 8 students sort, label, and catalog these book donations. 高年级学生策划图书馆使用活动. Middle Division and Upper Division librarians supervise this on-campus work, and they subsequently guide student shelving and teaching in Nassau. Bahama Books, 一个跨部门合作的服务项目, exemplifies the school’s vision statement: “Berkeley puts people in the world who make a positive difference.”
