Welcome back to school to start our 2020~2021 school year, I believe you all had a safe, happy and special summer. We also welcome new families joining our school, hope you can get familiar with and adapt to our SVCS big family very soon !
FYI, we are having 21 heritage classes, 8 CSL classes and about 320 students this year. Let us enjoy the upcoming 32 weeks long of Chinese learning all together.
Don’t forget to have a look at our school year calendar on the school website www.svcs-us.org.
Room parents, please remember to serve your duty for your class and help maintain the class order. Thanks!
Hope you all have a great year and let us meet each other online Friday evening !
As time flies, it will be our last school day of this 2019~2020 school year. School wants to express our sincere thanks to all teachers, board members, school staff for your hard work and unselfish help to school, and also thank all class representatives and parents for your support and cooperation. And of course, every student’s hard work in learning Chinese and Chinese culture indeed gives parents the greatest reward and momentum.
We also would like to congratulate those sixteen students who graduate or complete the CSL curriculum this year. After many years of persistence and endurance, you have completed one important stage of your life. Hope the experience you gathered during this Chinese learning journey will benefit you a lot in your future life.
Besides, school will keep watch on the status of Shelter-in-Place then decide the exact dates of future placement tests and time to move class back to Lynbrook High. Updates will be posted on the school website.
Last, we wish all of you a happy summer time and everyone stays healthy, we will see you again next school year !
Due to class cancelled on 3/13 (for schooling doing online teaching training), school had asked teachers if they would like to have make-up class on 4/17. There were three classes having makeup class on that day. Since school year is going to end soon and we have another school off-day on 5/22, school is currently asking teachers again if they prefer to have one or two-hour make-up class on 5/22. Please watch for your teacher’s notice if make-up class is arranged.
Per the original school schedule, 5/15 is the final-exam day, if your class will have make-up class on 5/22, the teacher may move the final-exam day to 5/22 instead.
Besides, 5/29 will still be our last school day of this school year, the graduation class will have a special online graduation ceremony. For all other classes since you cannot do onsite potluck, in addition to distributing report cards and awards, teachers and parents can discuss and use creative ideas to do any form of “online happy hours” you would like to. Furthermore, The class time is not necessary to be up to two-hour and the teacher can decide to complete the class earlier.
To every class, please start electing your class representative and vice representative for next school year. Vice Principal, Sabrina, has sent out an email to all class representatives and asked them to host this election for your class then report back to school. We encourage parents to participate and help more to your class.
Since there are quite a few inquiries from parents recently regarding the registration, classroom availability for next school year, CSL textbook change etc. School added a FAQ session on the school website homepage for everyone to understand things you would like to know easier and will add more Q&A items there to answer further questions you may have. Please refer to this FAQ session and get up-to-date information from school.
Thanks again to vice class representatives and parents for completing the returning student registration and delivered the registration packages to registration staff. Based on that school can better determine the class count and size of each grade for the upcoming school year.
