亲爱的家长们、老师们，亲爱的同学们：
Dear NWCS Fellow Members;
Dear All Parents, Teachers and Students;
一、本周六（十月六日）是西北中文学校主校本学年开学的第四周，也将是西雅图分校今年秋季开学的第一天，请家长互相转告。如果还没有在网上报名的家长，请提前半小时到西雅图分校办理注册手续。
This Saturday, October 6th, 2018 will be our main campus' fourth week of the fall semester. And the first day of Seattle branch starts on this Saturday too. All NWCS classes of main campus will follow regular schedules as defined in our school calendar. If you have not registered your child for Seattle branch classes, please arrive at least thirty minutes earlier on that day for the registration process.
二、为了方便西雅图市区的师生，本学期西北中文学校拟在西雅图分校新开一门中国功夫课，上课时间：每周六下午二点二十分至三点二十分。授课老师是西雅图地区的武术名家，蔡李佛拳第六代传人麦显辉师傅。请感兴趣的家长尽快与西雅图分校负责人联系：电话 206-228-1013 (minqiu.huang@nwchinese.org).
Our Seattle branch plans to offer a new Kung Fu class between 2:20pm to 3:20pm every Saturday this semester. The instructor is the famous Kung Fu master, Mak Fai. If you are interested, please contact Seattle branch manager at 206-228-1013 or email minqiu.huang@nwchinese.org.
三、本周六是主校办理退课的最后时间，退课的家长只能得到50%的退款。另外，本周起除特殊情况外将不再办理转班手续。
Please NOTE: There will be NO more class switching this coming Saturday. Only 50% refund will be available if you want to withdraw from a class this week. And from next week on there will be no more refund.
四、教学质量的提升一直是我们西北人最重要的追求，而每年的教师培训因与教学质量的提升和学校的中长期发展密切相关而深受学校领导重视。上周六我校中文教师培训如期举行，校长、副校长和各年级的教学骨干济济一堂，共商新学期新学年教师培训大事。张涛校长从宏观和微观的角度讲述了教师培训的重要和意义之所在，与会教师紧接着畅所欲言，提出了许多中肯、实用、反映我校实际情况的建议和意见。由于时间关系原本计划拟定的学期培训计划暂时未能完成。但是在大家的积极支持下我们相信一份尽善尽美的学期培训计划很快就会出台。
NWCS Teacher training session for the new school year started according to plans last Saturday. Principle Zhang， Tao and vice Principle Leng, Jing both gave an opening speech on the great importance of teacher training from different perspectives. And the teachers present at the meeting offered important feedback and suggestions to their speeches. With such great cooperation we believe a great teacher training plan will come out soon.
五、教室管理快报：1、如果NHS老师白板上有需要保留的内容，请不要随意擦掉，如果白板空间留得不够教学使用，请先拍照，然后报告给学校admin@nwchinese.org, 由学校和NHS进行交涉。2、本周六由于NHS有篮球活动需要使用二楼体育馆，我校的儿童武术，成人舞蹈，太极等课程将移至楼下体育馆，请大家互相通知转告为盼。
1、“Rules & Regulations for Classroom Maintenance and Management”Highlights: Please don't wipe off notes on the white board left there by Newport High School teachers. If there is not enough space for you to write on, please take a picture and report to admin@nwchinese.org and our school admin will talk with NHS.2、Since NHS basketball teams need to use the upstairs gym this Saturday, our martial art class and adult dance and Taiji classes must move to the downstairs gym, the one we moved into last time. Please notify your students or classmates about this change.
谢谢大家！
Thank you all!
