新學年新措施： 高年級必選課

Mandatory Elective Class for Senior Students

日前本校董事會決議， 自下學年度起， 六年級以上的同學必須加選第三堂課 （十一時至十二時）。 這項決議的目的在於促進學生學習的興趣及成效。 這項決議已經獲得多位家長的支持。 所有高年級 （六年級以上）的學生在註冊時必須加選一門選修課。 選修課內容請參見註冊表。 如果您有任何疑問， 請於本周六到學校餐廳， 我們將有本校董事在場解答您的問題。 您也可以跟校長鄭天人聯係。

The Board has decided to convert the 3rd hour as mandatory "elective" class for students in grades 6 and up for the Fall 2006 semester. This is to further improve our curriculum in culture and language, and enrich students' learning and comprehension. This decision has received the support of many of our parents. All senior students are required to register for the 3rd hour class and choose an elective from a variety of classes. Please see the registration form for the list of electives available for next semester. If you have any questions or concerns regarding this change, please come to the registration desk in the cafeteria this Saturday. Some of our board members will be there for questions.
