Welcome back everyone!  I hope that everyone enjoyed the break and had a wonderful Chinese New Year celebration. 

We had a great time with family and friends for the Super Bowl.  Throughout the whole game, I just kept on wondering which team the Mom of the coaches was rooting for.  Having twins myself, playing on different team in sports, I find myself often skipping those games when they play against each other.  I rely on my husband to text me the scores so I know who to congratulate and who to console when they get home. J  The New Year celebration was nice, enjoying family and good friends getting together, remembering the good, leaving behind the bad of the past year and moving forward with the New Year.  Happy Year of the Snake, everyone!  Last but not least, I hope that everyone had a lovely Valentine’s Day as well.   Now, it is time to get our minds back on school.  I am sending this weekly message a day earlier so you have one last day to complete your winter break homework!

The teachers and the board members met last Saturday to review administrative items and to discuss the upcoming semester’s agenda.   Week 1 will be this Saturday, 2/23, for the Spring semester.  There are several announcements that we would like to share with you so we ask you to be at the school Gym at 8:45 am sharp for a brief assembly.  Please be on time!

There had been several inquiries about summer programs already.  We are working with several local establishments who have summer programs that might be of interest to you, to come to our school to talk about what they have to offer.  Not sure if you remember, but last summer we had a Family Fun Day at the Mohawk Day Camp where NWCS families spent a fun day enjoying numerous activities.  We have invited them to come to our school on Saturday, 3/2, to share their program information with you.  Stay tuned for more details.

See you on Saturday at 8:45am in the Gym!  Please be on time.
