中文学校每周简讯 - 10月3日 | 10/15/2014 - 12:35pm |
中文学校的各位家长、老师,你们好, 学期进入第五周,大家都已经按部就班:有扎堆聊天的,有四处散步的,还有装模作样埋头用工的,当然也有不少聚在教室门口向室内探望的。这个星期我们会在大礼堂请Randy Cale心理学博士给我们上一堂“如何为人父母”的讲座,希望能把大家都吸引过来。附件有Randy Cale博士发表的一些相关文章,这些文章在他的网站(http://terrificparenting.com)上也有转载。请大家多多准备一些问题,越尖锐越有实际意义。除了讲座之外,还有其他一些校务需要大家注意。 1. 毕业以及奖学金 2. 第十六届世界华人学生作文大赛 3. 讲故事比赛 4. 青少年义工团活动 这个星期的一周简讯到此,谢谢大家关注。周末愉快! 陈峰 Dear Chinese School Families,
The school is moving forward at its full throttle. When I walked around the classrooms, the usual laughter was floating around and I can see most of you have settled except a few parents were still peeking through the windows into the classrooms and seemed to be anxiously interested in what was going on inside. For this coming Sunday, I hope the seminar event will attract all of you to the auditorium so we have a quiet hallway. As announced earlier this week, Dr. Randy Cale will talk about parenting, second language study, and homework in a general sense. He will share his best experience after many years of practice as physiologist. I will appreciate if you can read through the attached articles from him, and bring your own questions, concerns, or your thoughts to share with other parents. There are a few other highlights I want to share with you below. 1. Scholarship and graduation 2. Composition competition 3. Chinese Story Telling Contest at CCC 4. Youth Team Event With that, I will wrap up this weekly update. Enjoy the weekend and see you on Sunday. Feng Chen <!--break--> |

中文学校的家长们,你们好! 中文学校进入第四周,注册基本结束。上个星期课程结束后,我终于有时间把教学区大致走了一遍。不走不知道,一走吓一跳。上下两层楼共三十间教室加走廊,我一共捡了8张糖纸,5根棒棒糖柄,以及其他一些食物垃圾。当然还有一些我没有注意到的,或是已经被捡起来的。也就是说我们一再强调在教学区不准带食物和饮料的规定并没有得到很好的执行,这给学校的管理带来了很多隐患。上个星期,我已经收到Colonie学区的反馈意见,基本和我的观察一致,就是大问题没有,小问题一串。我请大家引起注意,从自己做起,带动身边的家长,共同维护学校的清洁卫生。 其他一些学校的工作和大家通报如下: 1.青少年义工团选举结果 2.2014-2015学年预算 3.各班级家长代表 本期简讯到此。谢谢大家关注,星期天见! 陈峰 Dear Chinese School Families,
The color of fall is unfolding before us. Every leaf is like a rose in the spring but differs in its own color. Many of you probably have started planning the annual foliage scenic trip. When you are out in such a trip, take the opportunity to teach your child what is “霜叶红于二月花”, and explain the scientific reasons behind it. Hopefully after the trip, you will become know-it-all daddy or mommy. As the registration drew to an end this week, I finally had time to take a walk around the classrooms by end of the day and talked to the custodians who were cleaning up the rooms and hallways. During my walk-around, unfortunately, I was needed to pick up various garbage including candy wrappers, lollipop sticks, crackers etc. As we all have a 1. Youth Team Election Results Please join me in congratulating them being elected to the leadership positions. Ryan Guo and the team have started to form the youth team community. Parents, please have your child forward contact information to Ryan Guo at rguo98@gmail.com at your earliest convenience. The first volunteering event planned is as soon as next week. Don’t miss the opportunity to work with your peers and help the needed. 2. Budget Update 3. Classroom Home Parent Wish you all have a good weekend and see you on Sunday again. Sincerely, Feng Chen <!--break--> |

中文学校的家长们,大家好! 2014-2015新学年在一个天晴气朗的周末开始了。很高兴与许多旧交新识见面。特别欢迎新同学,新老师的加入,你们已经开始了在中文学校的旅程。 在翻过学期第一页之后,教学工作将从第二周起走上正轨。在此我和大家强调一些注意事项以及课程变化,希望大家能及时做好相应的安排,避免第二次课出现不必要的调整。 (1) 注册和学费 希望各个家庭上完第一节课后都已经作出相关决定,是否换课或退课。请及时登陆学校网页修改你的注册信息。学校才能知道每个班的准确人数。谢谢你的合作。若有问题,请联校长或陈建华先生(jchen_9898@verizon.net) (2) 课程调整 -象棋班:由于学生象棋水平参差不齐,该班将分为两个班。增加一个初级班,由新老师Zackary Calderon教,教室安排在A205。Patrick Chi任教的班将针对中、高级水平的学生,仍在现有教室B108。请相关家长及时调整注册。 -舞蹈1班:根据老师要求,1班将从体育馆搬到B102教课。请家长主动帮助维持教室整洁,做到物归原处。 -舞蹈2班:从1班挪上来的学生家长,请及时在学校网页上更新注册信息。 -数学班:每个班都进行了摸底考试,评估学生数学水平。陆群老师会联系相关家长做相应的调整。如果你没有收到陆老师的通知,请及时联系、确认。 -绘画3班:该班是针对中、高级水平的学生。请家长根据自己孩子的水平调整班级注册。绘画1班和2班是针对初级水平的学生。 (3) 家长代表 (4) 青少年义工团 学校将逐步把现有的一些具体操作程序条例化、规范化。目的是增加学校各项活动、运作的透明度、规范度。在这个过程中,不可避免的会有些遗漏,希望大家能理解并积极向校方提意见。 (5) 注册情况 (6) 教材 (7) 华社会员 最后我要感谢第一天执勤的家长代表。正是你们的辛勤工作保障了校务人员能集中精力处理繁杂的校务、教务事项。 谢谢大家,星期天见! 陈峰
Dear Chinese School Families, Welcome back to Chinese School! The school is off to a great start and we were so delighted to see old acquaintance and new faces in the first day of school. I hope everyone now starts to settle into school routines, and your child may have made one or two new friends. A special welcome is offered to our new students, new families and new teachers, who just began their journey in Chinese school. Now we are moving onto the second week while most students have started learning a few new Chinese characters or reading new stories. There are a few things I’d like to share with you in a hope to help you assimilate quicker into the Chinese School routines and culture. (1) Registration and Tuition Payment I hope after the first class most families have settled and made their decisions. Please take a moment to log into your account to update your enrollment information. We are relying on your prompt actions to have a better count of class size. If you have problem in updating enrollment, you can always reach out to me or Mr. Jianhua Chen(jchen_9898@verizon.net). (2) Class Updates -Chess class: due to wide range of levels, the chess class will be split into two classes. A beginner’s chess class has been added for current students of entry level. This class will be taught by Zackary Calderon in room A205. Patrick Chi will remain as instructor of current chess class for intermediate and advanced levels in room B108. Please adjust your enrollment accordingly. -Dance class-1 (7 and under): per request of the teacher, this dance class will take place in B102, instead of gym. Parents of this class: please help keep the classroom in order after the class is done. -Dance class-2 (8 and above): a few students registered to dance class-1 have switched to this dance class upon recommendation of teachers. Parents: please reflect this change in your account so school can keep track of class size. -Math class: a series of pre-test has been given to evaluate the levels of registered students of all math classes. Recommendations and adjustment will be handled by Ms. Qun Lu who is in charge of Math classes. Hope at this point you have received communications from Ms. Qun Lu. If not, please contact her (shen4@yahoo.com) to confirm the status. -Art-3: this art class is for intermediate and advanced level students. A separate communication has been sent to parents of this class to adjust class registration based on their child’s level. Art-1 and Art-2 are designed toward entry level students. (3) Classroom Home Parent I can’t stress more for the importance of keeping the classroom clean and neat. No food and beverage is allowed in the classroom and hallways. We have had a good record last year with just a few complaints. Sustaining and improving the record will require each one of us to pay attention to what we do everyday. The first day is a good example that I’ve not heard any complaint from North Colonie School District, which is a good sign. I have belief in you, particularly home parents who lead the effort. (4) Youth Team Election There is an initiative in the school administration to put best practice into words of guidelines and policies to help clarify the rules and avoid misunderstandings. As we start to push toward better operation and transparency, we realize we may not be able cover all the corners. If you have suggestions, please do not hesitate to share with us. (5) Enrollment Update (6) Textbook (7) CCC membership Lastly, I’d like to extend many thanks to parents on PTA duty in the first day of school. They did a wonderful job in keeping many things in order amid a huge crowd and allowing school staff focus on what they should be doing. Please keep the good work up. Thank you all for your attention. Sincerely, Feng Chen

Welcome to Chinese School 2014-2015 | 09/27/2014 - 12:47am |
中文学校的各位家长、同学,你们好! 我代表中文学校的老师和校务人员欢迎你们进入新的一个学年2014-2015。特别是新注册的学生家长,欢迎你们加入中文学校这个大家庭。 在大家欢度Labor Day长周末,围着火炉BBQ的时候,学校的校务人员、各位老师和家长会成员正在为下个星期开学第一天(九月七日)做最后的准备工作。整个暑期,尤其是过去的几个星期里,校务人员做了大量的工作,包括课程调整、教师安排,网址更新,注册,学费登记等等,希望保证新的学年有个顺利的开始,给我们的孩子们提供一个优良的学习环境和氛围。 在进入正题之前,我先给大家通报一下校长以及财务的交接班工作。在费校长和财务赵文翠的手把手指导下,其他校务人员、董事会的大力支持和理解下,我和王凌(新财务)对学校校务、教务、财务三方面的工作有了深入的了解和体会。暑期的工作只是一个开始,新的学年我和王凌还有很多日常工作需要熟悉、熟练,但是我们有信心、有计划、有行动和大家一起,为中文学校的发展努力。如果你们有任何问题、建议,都可以和我联系。我希望通过和各位家长的交流沟通,集思广益,把我们的学校人气办得更旺、学生更有兴趣、活动更丰富些。 下面我就新学期开学的一些注意事项和大家交流一下。 注册、缴费 家长值日 关于如何登记家长值日,请参考附件内家长会准备的详细说明。如有疑问,请联系家长会。 这几年学校学生人数一直呈上升趋势,是对我们工作的肯定,也给学校的管理工作带来了巨大的不稳定因素。如何保证学生的安全、学校的秩序及卫生,是校务人员每次都要直接面对的核心问题。我们每一位校务人员,都是学生家长。我们每一位家长,都有可能成为学校的校务人员。希望通过新增加的家长巡视员,我们有更多的家长参与到学校的日常管理工作中来。 家长会是学校和家长之间沟通的一个主要桥梁,希望大家积极支持家长会的工作,值好每一个班,带动自己周围的人,共同建设一个更加有秩有序的学校,才能保证我们的教育质量。 学校手册 希望各位家长在开学前通读一遍手册,熟悉一下各自的教室位置,学校各个岗位的工作人员以及家长会代表。他们将是你们在学校需要帮助时的首选。同时也希望家长和学生一起仔细阅读家长职责以及学生守则。因为学校是租借Shaker Junior High School的场地、教室,希望大家配合各自的任课老师、保持教室的原样以及整洁。这对我们和North Colonie Central School保持良好的合作关系至关重要,也直接影响到我们每位家长所付的学费。学校的一大块财政开支是用于租金以及每次额外的打扫清洁费用。如果我们做不到每次物归原处、清洁整齐,学校就没有办法协商到现在的租金价位,每次的清洁费用也会直线上升。最后都会由我们每位家长承担,这不是学校想看到的。所以请大家务必配合学校的工作,在家里做好准备工作,和自己的孩子强调在中文学校的举止行为。 开学第一天 学校开门时间是12:45PM 为方便答疑,开学第一天的校务人员工作分配如下: 课程安排 有些文化课程,根据注册人数的多少,可能会增加、合并或取消。校务人员会争取及时通知家长。请各位家长保持联络,确认在学校注册网页上的联系方式。 停车 请大家留5到10分钟的停车时间,就不会因匆忙之间找停车位而上课迟到。 最后,感谢你们的信任,把你们的孩子送到中文学校上学。希望2014-2015在我们共同的努力下,又是顺顺利利、硕果累累的一年。 谢谢,
陈峰
Dear Parents of Chinese School Students, On behalf of the faculty and staff in Chinese School, I’d like to welcome you to the school year of 2014-2015, particularly the new families to the Capital region. It is great to have you join the big family of Chinese School. As everyone of you has been enjoying the long Labor Day weekend, the school faculty, staff and PTA members have been busy preparing for the first day of school on September 7th, the coming Sunday. During the summer time, the school staff has been ramping up the effort, especially in past few weeks, on class arrangement, teaching assignment, database and website updates, registration and finance. We hope to transition into a smooth start of new semester and provide all students a safe and encouraging setting for their language studies. First of all, I want to brief you about the transition of principal and treasurer roles. As you all know, since the beginning of the summer, I took over the principal role from former Principal Guoping Fei, and Ling Wang took over the treasurer role from former Treasurer Wencui Zhao. During the transition period, both of them have been giving us tremendous help and guide. The work in summer has given us a jump start and we sure will learn as we go into the new semester. With the support from every one of you, we have the confidence to continue the growth of Chinese School. In the meantime, I’d like to hear more from you in about any suggestions, concerns you may have. It is my hope to further strengthen the communications between parents and the school to address any potential issues, and help move the school in the right direction to provide a better learning environment. As the first day of school is approaching, I want to share a few things with you to help prepare for the first day. Registrations By now I hope everyone has registered on line. If you have not mailed your payment, please do so in the next day or two to avoid late fee. Please mail your check to CCC Chinese School Registration, 11 Avis Drive, Latham NY 12110. Parent Duty We have increased parent duty positions from three to five per school session according to suggestions of PTA. Please take a moment to register a parent duty that fits your schedule. The duty includes ringing bells, print/copy machine operation as before. In addition, we add two roles as patrollers in hallways, in a response to the need of keeping hallway quiet and organized. Please see attached file as to how to register parent duty on line. If you still have questions about the instructions, please contact PTA members. We have seen enrollment growing for past few years. As we are all pleased to see this uptrend, it also poses unique challenges to daily school operations. Safety is always a top priority to all school personals. As we strive to provide a safe and secure environment, we need every parent to assist and help keep school well organized. The school safety can only be enhanced if everyone is well aware of the safety and emergency protocols. Please stress to your children that they need to be conscious of the traffic when going to and from school, avoid rushing and dashing in the hallways, keep conversation at an indoor level, etc. If everyone is participating, the school can only be better organized for everyone to enjoy a Sunday afternoon. The PTA is one of the primary communication bridges between parents and school. We hope every parent can be supportive of their work by signing up parent duty, be a role model in your circles. Together, we will be able to build a better learning environment for our children and help them exhibit better and proper behaviors. Handbook A limited number of handbooks will be distributed in the first day of school, mostly for new families, and families that have no access to internet. In future, we will be adopting more use of electronic versions instead of paper versions. We stress that every parent should go through the handbook to get familiar with the school classroom layout, classroom assignment of your children, school staff and PTA members as they will be your first contact and resource in need of help. The students need to read through the student conduct section together with their parents to be aware of requirement by the school on proper conduct and behavior. We need every parent, every student in cooperation to maintain the school in a clean and organized fashion and avoid any damages. The Chinese School is renting the classrooms and other facilities from North Colonie Central School District under a contract. We are obligated to keep the facilities as it is. Any damage or extra cleaning need may incur a bigger rental bill in the coming year that will directly affect the tuition we are paying, which is not the desired situation everyone likes to see. We are doing far better than we used to be, and I believe we can still do better in a few areas, particularly the high traffic places such as restrooms, cafeteria. First Day of School The first day of Chinese School is scheduled on September 7th. Please make sure you and your children aware of the classroom assignment. If you do have questions, please reach out to school staff for help. The school opens 12:45PM The first class is from 1PM to 1:45PM The second class is from 1:55PM to 2:40PM The third class is from 2:50PM to 3:40PM The school ends by 4PM The school operates at Shaker Junior High School at 475 If you have questions first day, please reach out to the Registration: Guoping Fei, Jianhua Chen, Wencui Zhao Tuition: Ling Wang, Frank Li, Xia Li Classes: Xiaoqing Zhang Textbooks: Xufeng Sun Parent Duty: Jian Xu Language and Culture Classes On first day of school, there might still be minor changes to some of the classes depending on actual number of enrollment. There might be cancellation or combination of culture classes due to low enrollment. We will try to do best to meet the diversified needs of our students. Please make sure your contact in school database is current. If a class change does arise, we can notify you promptly. Parking There is always huge inbound and outbound traffic on first day of school. Please remind your children of watching out for vehicles, staying on safety side when coming to and from school. We recommend you to arrive to school 5 to 10 minutes earlier before first class so there is no rush to find a parking spot. Parking in front of school door and along the fire lane is prohibited. Lastly, I wish the best to you and your family and thank you for your trust on us to work with your children. I hope the coming school year is another successful and prosperous year as we work together toward the common goal. Best, Feng Chen Principal, Chinese School 2014-2015
