Dear NWCS families, 大家好,

Class Picture Day
A big thank you to Ke-Wei Chang, Fu-Hsuan Chiu, Harry Villareal, Kenny Soohoo, and Rick Chan for being our class photographers last week! We really appreciate your involvement. We will share these great pictures with you all at the 50th anniversary slideshow, and at our next open house!

Help with 50th Anniversary Celebration supplies
Please save the date on January 12th from mid-afternoon to dinner for our Chinese New Year and 50th anniversary celebration! Each class will be asked to contribute either hot or cold cups, small or large plates, water bottles or juice boxes for the party. Mike Yin, our class liaison and board member, will be coordinating with the class parents on supply assignments. Class parents, please be prepared to reach out to other parents in the class to gather these needed supplies. We are counting on all of you to help!

Designate NWCS at the AmazonSmile program
For your holiday shopping, please designate NWCS as your charitable organization of choice via AmazonSmile or shop on Amazon.com via www.nwcsny.org website. This is an easy way to support our school (school gets a small donation for each purchase made via the link).

Best Regards,
Francine Fang 方敏

Dear NWCS Families,

I hope everyone had a happy and safe Halloween! Thanks to all the kids and adults that wore their awesome costumes last Saturday. Here is a picture of some staff members who dressed up too.

Be a class parent (家長代表)
Please volunteer to be a class parent! We and the teachers would love to have your help with school events involving your children. Your participation would be greatly appreciated.

Best Regards,
Francine Fang 方敏

Dear NWCS families,

Dress up for Halloween this Saturday
We will be celebrating Halloween this Saturday. Everyone is welcome to wear a costume! I will be giving out treats to students, especially the ones who can say 萬聖節快樂 (Happy Halloween in Chinese) to me.

Go to Sleep, Little Creep Book Reading
A big thank you to our co-board chairperson, David Quinn, for his book reading event to raise funds for NWCS earlier this month. David’s clever new book for kids, Go to Sleep, Little Creep, is a warm, funny rhyming picture book that transports us to a make-believe Halloween Night World where Monster Parents struggle to cuddle and calm their little ghosts, zombies, creatures and creeps for a good night’s – well, actually, it’s a good day’s – sleep.

You can purchase David’s book on Amazon here. Please consider designating NWCS as your charitable organization of choice via AmazonSmile or shop on Amazon.com via www.nwcsny.org website. Thank you in advance for your support!

Best Regards,

Greetings NWCS families, 大家好,

A few quick reminders about Week 6.

Parent teacher conference

Most classes are having their parent teacher conferences this Saturday. Kindly reserve a time slot with your child’s teachers to exchange feedback. Please also feel free to reach out to any school officers if you have any suggestions for school operations and curriculum. We aim to continuously make improvements but need your inputs and involvement to make them happen!
