Happy 2012! I hope that everyone had a wonderful holiday and is ready to return to the Chinese School! We have 2 more Saturdays left to complete this semester! Keep up the good work!
The school staff are all busy preparing for the upcoming celebration on Saturday, 1/14/2012. We are not only celebrating our 6th grade, 9th grade (as of June 2011), and senior class graduates, but we are also welcoming in the year of the DRAGON!
Our co-Vice Principal, Margaret Yip, will be sending out the schedule so you can plan accordingly. Tomorrow will be the last chance to purchase your dinner tickets in the cafeteria. Don’t forget to buy your raffle tickets for a chance to win the latest and hottest Kindle!!!!!
One of our Calligraphy teachers (also a past board member and prinicpal), Dr. Tien Jen Chang, has invited several speakers from NTD Television to present for our NWCS teachers, students and parents. I hope you will all join us.
