NWCS Spring 2018 Newsletter – Week 1

Dear NWCS families,

First week of spring semester starts this Saturday!
Hope you all had a wonderful winter break. Please remember to finish the winter homework!

Electives
All students are encouraged to take a third hour elective, where they will do something fun and make new friends. Please preview some electives and let me know if you want to enroll this semester!

Parents, please join our chorus, knitting circle, breakfast club, or line dancing groups. We plan to feature a few workshops and demos this semester which would love to have your participation. Any additional activities ideas or suggestions are welcomed.

Chinese New Year Celeration
Thank you all for a wonderful Chinese New Year Celebration in January!
Benson, our chairman emeritus, has kindly made a recording of our celebration.
You can see the video of it here on the NWCS website.
