大家好：

我们刚刚收到 Shaker Middle School 的通知，由于需要布置高级课程考试（AP考试），本周日和下周日（5月3日和5月10日）部分体育馆将无法使用 - 主要是羽毛球场地。因此，羽毛球俱乐部活动和课程将取消。请通知羽毛球所有学生和俱乐部成员。

对于临时通知带来的不便，我们深表歉意。

如有任何问题，请随时联系我们 principal@cccalbany.org。

中文学校行政团队

We have just received a notice from Shaker Middle School. Due to the need to set up for Advanced Placement (AP) exams, part of the gymnasium — mainly the badminton courts — will be unavailable this Sunday and next Sunday (May 3rd and May 10th).

Therefore, the badminton club activities and classes will be canceled for those two days. Please inform all badminton students and club members.

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by this short notice.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at principal@cccalbany.org.

值得祝贺的是，我们团队在所有参加此义工活动的学校，企业志愿者团队中，获得了“完成数量最多团队”的荣誉。

感谢每一位参与活动的同学，你们以热情和责任感服务社区，也为更多小动物送去了关爱与帮助。

On April 25th, our youth volunteer team volunteered at the Mohawk Hudson Humane Society's “Empties for Animals” program.
Students helped sort donated bottles and cans by size and packed them for recycling. Their hard work helps raise money for animal food, medical care, and shelter.
We are proud to share that our team was recognized for sorting the most bottles among all corporate volunteer groups. Great job to our student volunteers for making a difference in the community!

Here share with you the highlights of the volunteering https://youtu.be/7bMQ8gPI2c8
