NWCS 16TH WEEKLY EMAIL BRIEFINGS FALL 2011-2012

Dear All NWCS Fellow Members;

Dear All Parents, Teachers, and Students;

各位家长、各位老师;

亲爱的同学们;

大家好!

1.期末考试

上周六我校因降雪之故临时停课,本周六主校、分校按正常作息时间上课。原本安排在上周六的期末考试将在本周六举行,请家长敦促学生复习好功课,考出理想的成绩,为本学期的学业画上一个圆满的句号。

NWCS has postponed all academic activities on 01/21 to 01/28 due to the heavy snow. Final Exams are the major academic activities for most of the classes. The Principal kindly request all parents to urge and help your kids to review all the basic knowledge we have covered this semester, especially those outlined by the teachers if there are any. Good luck!

2.本周所有班级均在原教室考试/上课

因降雪,NHS的数学竞赛也延后举行,但在本周六下午200之后,这样就避开了与我校大部分课程在时间和教室上的冲突,因此,主校除SAT MATH & GENERAL SCIENCE 需从1105调至1113 上课外,所有班级均在原教室上课(考试)。第十五周WEEKLY 4)中需要临时调换教室的通知已经失效。

Due to the snowNHS moved its Math competition to 1/28 starting at 2:00pm. Therefore, there is no more classroom conflict as stated in the 15th WEEKLY (4) except classroom 1105. SAT MATH & GENERAL SCIENCE are to be switched from 1105 to 1113.

6. 春节联欢文艺演出之彩排 ABOUT THE REHEARSAL

安排在农历大年三十的彩排在大家的共同努力下,如期进行。我们首先要感谢有演出任务的指导教师们、同学们和他们的家长,感谢家长们的配合、支持和耐心;同时,我们也要感谢筹委会、总导演、具体节目执行导演、舞台总监、舞台美术、灯光设计、主持人、后台勤务和后勤供应等全体义工家长。大家亲力亲为、忙碌而快乐着。在忙碌中度过了难忘的节日。因此,我们可以信心满怀地说:成功在即!诚然,在彩排过程中,我们也发现了瑕疵、配合上的默契和有待磨合、甚至个别意见相左的地方需要协调。独立完成任务需要智慧,协调整合一个集体共同完成任务则需要大智慧。我们的指导思想是:追求节目的完美,既要顾及到具体节目本身,也要照顾好整台节目之间的平衡。我们坚信这台演出一定会精彩纷呈,如愿以偿。让我们共同期待着!

7.关于联欢会校长简短致辞 PRINCIPAL’S SPEECH CUT SHORT TO GIVE MORE TIME TO STUDENTS ON STAGE

经验告诉我们:一台演出的完美与成功,除了节目本身完美之外,外在的因素也起作用,时间拖得太长,有不紧凑之嫌;太短,又余幽未尽。从彩排来看,我们的节目多,时间不够用,不得不在时间上“斤斤计较”。为了把更多的时间留给演出的孩子们,校长的致辞由原来的五分钟缩短为两分钟之内。倘若这不是一个必不可少的环节,我们宁愿把这五分钟的时间都给了学生。 

If there are any typo mistakes, please refer to the version on NWCS web. (www.nwchinese.org) 感谢大家关注我校网站,欢迎大家批评指正。admin@nwchinese.org

谢谢大家!THANK YOU ALL!
