Dear SVCS Families,
We hope you and your family are all safe and healthy. We greatly appreciate your patience and support over the course of the COVID-19 pandemic. Our partner agency Fremont Union High School District announced on July 15th that they will begin the 2020/2021 school year in Distance Learning model. Due to the facility limitation, we are also announcing that SVCS will begin the new school year in an online-only remote learning model for the first semester. Our ultimate goal is to return students to campus. Unfortunately, we do not feel this can be achieved in a manner that provides an appropriate level of safety for students, staff and community at this time. We believe that distance learning is a powerful tool when done right, and we are committed to providing our students with the best possible academic experience. We will continue to plan for a possible return to in-person learning during the 2020-21 school year as soon as public health conditions allow.
The SVCS Administration Team is working diligently to arrange the textbook pickups and other logistics to prepare the start of school on August 28th. We are kindly asking for your patience and please closely follow our email communications. Thank you for your continued support to SVCS!
Elaine Hu, SVCS Chairman of Board,
Derek Chen, SVCS Principal

## FAQ (Regarding registration and things for next school year) :
Q : Calendar of 2020 ~ 2021 School Year ?
A : Please refer to https://drive.google.com/file/d/1SKm9iZXGO2WlIHFkJlm_N_goX-hdbnGP/view?usp=sharing
Q : When will be the Placement Test for school year 2020 ~ 2021 ?
A : Due to COVID-19 pandemic, currently school plans to combine the 2nd and 3rd Placement tests into one session on 8/8/2020(Sat). If on-site test is not allowed, we will go for online oral exam. The test will come from textbook of student's preivous grade level. Please see next Q/A for the textbook we are using.
If you have registered for placement test, please wait for further notification.
Q: What text books will school use for coming school year?
A: After evaluating with teachers and staffs, school has decided to use the text book below for the following years.
Heritage grade 1~9 classes: MeiZhou Chinese leve1~9
http://www.mzchinese.net/Resources/Resource-traditional.htm
Heritage kindergarten : Let's learn Chinese basic
CSL1~8 : Let's Learn Chinese basic ~ book7
Q: Why does school decide to change text book for CSL class ?
A: There was inconsistency on the materials CSL classes used in past years. And that results in different standard across the CSL levels and creates program/gaps when students translate to next grade level or advance to Heritage class. To address those issues, school and teachers evaluated the text books and decided to adopt "Let's learn Chinese" text book recommended by OCAC (Overseas Community Affairs Council).
Q : Why the returning registration due is on 5/1 and cannot be extended ?
A : School does need staff resources and time to thoroughly process the registration data after returning-student registration deadline, therefore we cannot extend the current 5/1 registration due any more. Thank you for your understanding.
Q : When we can go back to Lynbrook High for in-person class sessions ?
A : Regarding when we can go back Lynbrook high classrooms, as long as Lynbrook high classrooms are opened to us again, we will return and have classes there immediately.
Q : When is the 2020~2021 SVCS board election ballot counting event ?
A : We will have ballot counting event held through Google online meeting on 6/3 (Wed) 7 ot 8 PM through meeting link :
https://meet.google.com/yjr-cyzp-jbp
Every parent is welcome to join and watch the event.

Q: Will the school give trophy for this year's academic contest winners? And when?
A: Yes, however due to COVID-19, the distribution of trophy will be delayed till next school year starts.
Sincerely hope the COVID-19 pandemic will greatly slow down soon and all of us please keep well and stay healthy !
