BHUSD Joins Community Partners at “Fun in the Sun” Emergency Preparedness Fair

Beverly Hills, CA (June 8, 2025) – Leadership from the Beverly Hills Unified School District (BHUSD) attended the City of Beverly Hills’ “Fun in the Sun” Emergency Preparedness Fair this weekend at Roxbury Memorial Park, a community-centered event hosted by the Just in Case BH program. The event brought together families, first responders, and local organizations for an afternoon of interactive learning, safety awareness, and confidence-building around emergency preparedness. BHUSD Superintendent Dr. Alex Cherniss, Board of Education President Rachelle Marcus, and Board Member Russell Stuart joined community members in supporting the citywide effort. The Beverly Hills Education Foundation (BHEF), a longtime supporter of BHUSD schools, led the event’s games and relays, blending fun with purpose to help families engage with preparedness in an approachable way. Booths and demonstrations, including those from Just in Case BH, BHCPR, American Red Cross, Kids Are 1st, and many more, helped attendees walk away with not only resources but the knowledge and confidence to respond in emergencies. “This event was a great example of what makes Beverly Hills such a special place. It’s not just about services, it’s about people coming together to learn, support one another, and strengthen our community,” said Dr. Cherniss. “Even as summer begins, the work of keeping our families informed, connected, and prepared continues. I’m proud to represent BHUSD at events like these, where partnership and purpose come together.”

As summer begins, BHUSD continues to prioritize partnerships that uplift student wellness and community resilience. For more on BHUSD’s safety priorities and collaboration efforts, visit www.bhusd.org.
