Dear NWCS families,

Here we are going to Week 2. There are several things I’d like to share with you.

Registration

• Feel free to update your kids’ registration and electives on the web site sis.nwcsny.org by the end of Week 2, Saturday, Sep 19. We will freeze registration
  ​shortly after​

  . My apologies if your tuition checks haven’t been deposited. I persuaded school Treasurer Ms. Chang to teach 2nd graders. So we are in the process of transitioning Treasurer functions to another parent.

• We are holding a new family Q&A session at 9:30 am in the middle school theater next to the cafeteria. Board members will be present to answer questions and share their NWCS experience.

Parents

• Please elect a class parent so we can better communicate and reflect the needs of your class. Class parents please contact each family in
  ​your ​

  class to make sure they are receiving emails from school.

• We’d also like to invite parents to come by the theater for Chinese Karaoke, after visiting our wonderful Breakfast Club. Scientific evidence suggests singing not only cheers
  ​up yourself (although not everyone around)

  but also is good for burning calories after visiting Breakfast Club. You can also take this opportunity to show your kids how a good singer you are!

Student Travel Journals

• I’d like to invite our students who visited any Mandarin speaking cities during the summer. I want to publish your travel journals on the culture, people, food, and fun things you did.

Food

• Thank you for being patient to read on the email till here. The Breakfast Club takes lunch orders from a local Chinese restaurant for your convenience. You get an entree, Wonton or Egg Drop soup, and a choice of can soda or egg roll. Please order at the school cafeteria by 10:00AM – pay CASH when ordering. Each order includes $0.50 delivery cost and $1.00 donation to the school. The menu is available online at http://www.nwcsny.org/?page_id=1010

More Food News

• On Saturday, October 3, from 11:30 am to 3:30 pm, a Chinese Cultural Fair and Carnival will be held at P.S. 20, 142-30 Barclay Ave, Flushing with crafts, arts, ethnic dancing performances, variety of food snacks and bubble tea (!).

Donate to NWCS by shopping at AmazonSmile program

• Please remember to use Amazon.com through www.nwcsny.org website so we can get 0.5% of the sale proceeds from eligible purchases. The 0.5% would have been pure profit to Amazon if you do not go through our school link.
