ear NWCS Families,

It looks like we are going to have some wet weather Saturday morning.  Teachers have been informed to communicate with students/parents if the class teacher would like to move from in-person to remote due to weather concerns in the afternoon.  Please check email communication directly from the class teacher.  Chinese school will be open for in-person sessions this weekend!

There was a small technical issue with our school enrollment system before the semester started.  Now, the system has been fixed and functioning properly.  Please sign in and check if your child’s/children’s enrollment record(s) are correctly reflected in the system.  Also, if any tuition balance is still outstanding, please take a moment to double check with Treasurer (Mrs. Grace Liu).  Soon, we will start working on the financial planning for the new calendar year.  Your help is much appreciated.
