NWCS Week 07 – 10/27/2012
Boo! Welcome to the last week of October and week 7 of Chinese School …
So there is this potential hurricane for Monday and Tuesday and then there is Halloween on Wednesday … wasn’t it right before last Halloween that we had that wicked snow storm that came out of nowhere and took everyone by surprise?! Well, time to get those generators out after Chinese School on Saturday and be prepared for whatever mother nature will bring!
We have our monthly board meeting this Saturday in the Faculty office from 10:10 am to 11:00 am. On the agenda is to plan and prepare for upcoming events for the remainder of the year. If you have any fund raising ideas for the school and are available to help with any of the activities, please let any of the board members know. Who are the board members? Good question, come meet your board members either at the board meetings, or attend the November 10th General meeting.
Some parents have asked if the kids can wear their costumes to Chinese School this Saturday … of course! If it is what you have to do to make them come to Chinese School, please wear it every Saturday! It is amazing what parents have to do just to bribe their kids to learn Chinese.
Don’t forget (and don’t panic) that we have midterm exams this Saturday! Relax, study hard, and do your best! Good luck everyone! Since everyone has been working so hard for the last 6 weeks, there will be treats for everyone … or tricks?
One of my twins was hit (block, tackle, whatever … it was a nasty hit to the helmet) by another football player during practice. Took him to the doctor and the doctor said he has a concussion but asked “How bad do you want to play?” We were not sure how to answer the question. He said there are parents who are very gung ho about sports and would not want the kids to miss any game time, especially playoffs … So we asked “What would you do if it was your kid?” He said he would take him out for 2 weeks which means he is out for the season. So my son is out for the season. I mean he is only 11, it is not like he is trying out for pro football! Then we might … just kidding! Safety first! Sometimes, parents are the ones who have to get their priorities straight! I hope my husband is reading this email. LOL
Last but not least, according to Charles Perng, our webmaster, you are supposed to think about food when you read my weekly email message. One of the new Breakfast Club ladies, Angela Hwang, just sent me the link so you can just click and order! Talk about team work!
Food … food … delicious food … plan ahead and order your lunch NOW! http://23.23.192.51/ibm-restaurant/onlineorder.html
