Help us keep kids warm and cozy this winter. The District 4 Council office is partnering with local schools to deliver warm pajamas to kids for the holidays.
Nearly everyone remembers having a favorite pair of jammies when they were children. Pajamas give children a way to display their admiration for superheroes and cartoons, keep kids cozy and warm, make them feel secure, and even lower the risk of cold or flu. Donating a pair of pajamas will make a world of difference for a child in your neighborhood during the frigid winter months.
|
|
We request new with tags or new in package pajamas in any kids’ size 5-18, or adult sizes small or medium for older kids. They can be footy pajamas, two-piece pajamas, flannel, plaid, plain, with popular characters, for boys, girls, or gender-neutral.
Please bring or have pajamas shipped to:
Berryessa Union School District office
c/o District 4 Pajama Program
1376 Piedmont Road, San Jose, CA 95132
E-commerce sites such as Amazon.com, Target.com, and Costco.com make it simple to purchase and have pajamas delivered directly, but you can personally drop them off if you prefer. Feel free to attach a holiday greeting note to your gift for the recipient.
You may also contact the Council District 4 office at 408-535-4904 if you need guidance with your donation or if you want to make a cash or gift card donation to the District 4 Pajama Program instead.
We appreciate the kindness our constituents display toward their neighbors and hope you will join us in making this giveaway a terrific success.

HOW TO CONSERVE WATER IN A DROUGHT
|
|
The Governor had previously issued a voluntary recommendation to reduce water use by 15%, unfortunately, many cities including ours did not meet that mark. You can find more information on this on San José Water’s page.
Click here to see the restrictions that have been put in place to reduce usage, much of these are easy ways to greatly reduce your water usage, such as not washing your car at home, reducing outdoor irrigation, and ensuring that it’s being done in the most efficient way possible.

KIDS 5-11 ARE NOW ELIGIBLE FOR PFIZER VACCINES |
|
This morning, Santa Clara County announced COVID-19 vaccination shots are now available for youth ages 5-11. Parents and guardians should visit www.sccfreevax.org to sign up for an appointment or to find a convenient drop-in location. Many of the initial available appointments have already been reserved, but the County expects an increased vaccination supply in the coming weeks and additional slots should open soon. There are also still plenty of vaccines for members of the public ages 12 and older.
In addition, Berryessa Union School District is pleased to have secured COVID vaccination clinics for our eligible students with Santa Clara County (SCC) as well as with our Safeway Pharmacy partner. Our first clinic is being offered to the Toyon
Elementary community this Thursday, November 4, 2021. We appreciate the
County’s support in providing this service so quickly to a community that has
experienced significant exposure to COVID this past year. In addition, through our Safeway partnership, vaccination clinics will be available to all eligible students across the district, ages 5 - 11, on the following dates and locations:
· Wednesday, November 10, 2021 - Brooktree Elementary, 2:30 - 5:30 pm

Registration details are forthcoming for these events.
The Santa Clara County Office of Education (SCCOE) and the Santa Clara County Public Health Department (SCCPHD) will also be hosting an informational Town Hall for parents on Monday, November 8, 2021. This will be an opportunity to learn more about the youth vaccination and to ask your questions. COVID-19 Vaccine Information will be updated regularly at https://covid19.sccgov.org/covid-19-vaccine-information.
Again, we are grateful for our county partners in offering vaccination services to our students, families, and staff this past year.
