NWCS Weekly Newsletter – 12/7
Dear NWCS families,
All classes will conduct their Chinese New Year performance rehearsals this Saturday and Dec 17, then we are going on winter break. The graduation ceremony and celebration will take place at 10 am on the first Saturday of 2017, Jan 7. Your teacher decides if the final exam will be taken between 9 am to 10 am that day.
General meeting starting at 10:30
We will hold the General Meeting in the Middle School theater at 10:30. Dean and I will join you at 11 am after we finish teaching our classes. Please do attend and share your ideas how to make our school better. Our board members conducted family survey earlier this semester and then visited classes to observe students’ learning. We will share the survey results and discuss findings. Dean and I also expect to hear from your feedback on the implementation of the CSL curriculum.
Terry’s children’s book signing
Some of you may know our Arts and Crafts teacher Ms. Terry Taylor is a prolific writer and illustrator. This Saturday, she will bring several books she authored including ‘Clay Play’, ‘Clay Play Jewelry’ and ‘Marshmallow Clouds’ to our school for book signing and sale. Part of proceeds will be donated to NWCS. Her books make a wonderful holiday gift.
Breakfast Club featuring appetizer tasting event on Dec 17
After bake sale, potluck, dumpling, our Breakfast Club leaders are challenging talented NWCS Iron Chefs once again for salty or non-sweet finger foods! If you wish to show off your culinary skills in this area, please stop by to see Kay or Vivian.
Luncheon and raffle tickets on sale
We will be selling CNY luncheon and raffle tickets in the cafeteria. The luncheon tickets are $5 per person. The donated raffle prizes include Amazon Echo (Hello Alexa), Saks Fifth Avenue, Starbucks, CVS gift cards and more. The past years’ raffle grand prize winners went on to serve as principal (lucky me) and board member (Wei). So this is an even bigger incentive to buy raffles to support NWCS!!
Your principal,
