Welcome to Y-PLAN at Helms Middle School!

This blog is for Y-PLAN participants to document the process of creating a plan for the new community center.

Participants include LEAPS students at Helms Middle School and Richmond High School, as well as the three UC Berkeley mentors (Fernando Altamirano, Kevin Heiken and myself, Julianna Gallardo), the teachers and administrators, including Mr. Kim Jones, Ms. Jackie Huerta, and Ms. LaZena Jones.

If you would like to be added to this blog, so you can make your own posts, please e-mail Julianna know. You can get my e-mail address from Mr. Jones.
