2014 Chinese New Year Celebration

NWCS Updated Calendar !!!!

From: NWCS Principal Date: 12/20/2013 8:58 AM
Subject: NWCS Updated Calendar !!!!

HO! HO! HO! You know who you are! For those who have been naughty …time is running out! Seeing my kids trying to be on their best behavior during the last few weeks brought much joy to the family. We will enjoy it while it lasts!

As you know, we have lost 2 school days due to the smoke condition and the winter storm. I have been reviewing our possible make up days, meeting with the board members to seek their input, discussing the different alternatives, taking into consideration the availability of the High School Auditorium for our celebration …. Below is our remaining semester calendar:

January 4, 2014 – Week 12
Classes resume: Teachers and students will continue their performance rehearsals and we will continue to prepare for our upcoming New Year Celebration.

January 11, 2014 – Week 13
Teachers will do the review for their upcoming final exams and continue their performance rehearsals. Our event planning committee led by Vice Principal, Shuna Awong, will finalize the Celebration details.

January 18, 2014 – New Year Celebration (tentative schedule)
10:00 am Performances
11:30 – 12:00 noon New Year Lunch
1:45 – 3:00 Carnival Game and prizes

January 25, 2014 – Week 14
Last day of classes. Final exams.

Spring Semester starts on February 22, 2014.

Our school operations are planned according to our hosting school’s availability. Our hosting school starts school on January 2, 2014, therefore we will resume school on that Saturday!

The hosting school will start their upcoming concert set up on the January 18th weekend. However to accommodate our celebration needs, the hosting school has agreed to start the construction after our event.

Lastly, based on our previous year’s school operation survey, many parents have expressed that they would like the final week and the celebration to be on different days. This would prevent an extremely long day for both the students and the parents.

That said, let’s all hope that mother nature will cooperate and we will not need to change our plans again.

Have a wonderful holiday and don’t forget to go to our school’s website and shop through our amazon link. Our board chairman, Calvin, has been shopping and monitoring our account and he wanted to thank all those who have been helping out!

NO SCHOOL tomorrow, 12/14/2013 – Stay SAFE!

snow

From: NWCS Principal
Date: 12/13/2013 6:22 PM

Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow! Now I am starting to dislike that song!

Several parents sent weather updates since my previous email. Thank you for your help! Each update is worse than the one before, so we have decided to cancel school tomorrow 12/14/2013 so everyone can stay home and be safe. (again, don’t let your kid(s) know so they can finish their homework and continue to study).

Since we are all going to be stuck at home, what better way to spend it then by shopping online … I mean the holiday shopping is not going to get done by itself, right?! So please remember to go to our school website and log on to the Amazon link and shop, shop, shop … the more it snows, the more you should shop … all kidding aside, it is generating funds to help our school and we really apprecaite everyone’s help! Please ask your friends and family to shop using our link as well .. THANK YOU!

Stay warm and stay safe! Happy Holidays to ALL! We will see you in 2014 on January 4th!!!

Please be sure to spread the word and let others know so no one ventures to school tomorrow! Thanks!
