本校徵才

Volunteers Needed

學校近期將有多項活動需要多位人才投入。 這些活動包括新年晚會及編輯本年度記念冊。 如果您有興趣參與晚會活動設計， 文書編輯或美工， 請向鄭校長或副校長尚業敏報名。 高年級的同學也歡迎報名。

We need parents to participate in the various school functions, such as the New Year's Party and editing the yearbook. If you are interested in any of these activities, please contact the principal or vice principal. Older students are also encouraged to volunteer.

家長值日

On-Duty Parents

感謝上週擔任值日的家長：邢家禾, 余玉健， Bounsou Dyeuth, James Sarfaty。 我們在此再度提醒各位家長：家長值日是學校運作非常重要的一環。 每週我們需要五位家長負責影印， 分發每週通訊， 協助書法課室， 及維持學校秩序和安全。 任何一位家長缺席都會造成這些工作的困難。 根據學校的規定， 缺席的家長將會被罰款五十元。 如果您因故無法出席， 您必須事前安排替換人選， 並通知當週的負責人或訓導主任。

We thank those parents who fulfilled their on-duty commitment last week. Your contribution is greatly appreciated. We cannot stress enough the importance of the parents' "on-duty" role. It is extremely crucial to the smooth operation of the school. Each week five parents are given on-duty assignments to staff the copy room and calligraphy room, and to maintain school order and safety. According to our school policy, a $50 fine is levied on anyone who misses their duty. If you cannot fulfill your on-duty commitment on your assigned day, you must find a replacement and inform your leader or the Counselor.

家長大會

General Meeting

本學期的家長大會將于十一月十九日上午十點舉行。 由於原先選出的校長開學前因故臨時辭職， 本校董事會緊急授命鄭天人先生出任校長。 根據學校的規章， 鄭校長仍需要經過家長大會的投票選舉才得正式確認。 在此我們需要特別說明的是， 傳統上這個家長大會的目的之一是選舉下學年的校長人選。 為了避免產生混謠， 這次的家長大會將只投票確認本年度的校長。 下學年的校長選舉將延後舉行。 這次的家長大會也將包括期中校務報告， 財務報告， 各項委員會報告， 以及家長自由發言。 請大家踴躍參加。 會後將退還每家預交的十元會費。 如果您有任何問題或建議， 歡迎您事前透過電子郵件與鄭校長或是董事會主席黃允武溝通。 您可以在本校的網站 (http://www.nynwcs.org/contact.html) 查到他們的電子信箱

A general meeting will be held on 11/19/05 at 10:00 in the school cafeteria. In accordance with the school by-laws, at this meeting we will hold a general election to confirm Mr. Tien-Jen Cheng, our interim principal, as the official principal of NWCS. Although the principal for the next school year is usually elected at this general meeting, the Board has decided to postpone the election for next year's principal to a later date, to avoid any confusion. The agenda of this meeting also includes the state-of-the-school report from the interim principal and the treasurer, reports from various board committees, and an open forum for the public to speak. The $10.00 pre-paid fee will be refunded after the meeting. If you have any questions or suggestions for the school and would like to communicate them in advance, you may contact Tien-Jen Cheng, the principal, or Woody Huang, the Board chairman. Their e-mail addresses can be found on the school website (http://www.nynwcs.org/contact.html).
