二、来自张涛校长的信（A message from the principal Zhang Tao)：
谢谢每一位家长对我校各项工作的大力支持，尤其是在安全送接、教室洁净、维护校园安静有序方面所做的努力。
Thank you very much for your great support and sustainable effort on every aspect of Northwest Chinese School, especially on the safety of going to school & leaving school for home; on keeping the classrooms in good order, tidy and clean; and on the tranquility of the campus.
1）安全接送离不开家长的对子女的关爱，也离不开PTA家长交通管理义工的有效疏导，11/03/2018家长Allan Zhang在Factoria Blvd Entrance疏导交通，安全、便捷、有条不紊，让源源不断的车辆在最短的时间内停车、下车、驶去，令人印象深刻。特此感激表扬；
Coming and going safely depends mostly upon all parents’ love and efforts, at the same time, PTA patrol officers’ management and passion. For example, on 11/03/2018, Mr. Allan Zhang, who was on duty at the Factoria Blvd Entrance side. He managed the traffic so professionally that there looked no traffic at all. Stop, kids out of the car, go. Safe and smooth. Very impressive.
2）我校有明确的教室管理条例，但贯彻条例离不开教师、家长、学生三方的有机配合。截止到目前，我们做到了。由衷的感谢！
NWCS formally issued the Rules and Regulations on NHS Classroom Maintenance and Management. On the whole, it has been carried out well. The execution depends mainly upon the teamwork of teachers, parents and students. So far so good. Let us keep on. Thank you!
3）近来，课间在教室外楼道、楼梯、大厅里奔跑的学生越来越多，嘈杂声音也越来越大，敬希各位家长用得体的方式提醒自己的儿女切勿在上述区域奔跑、喧哗，以维护安静、安全的教学环境。
Recently, more and more students chase each other in the corridor, the stairs and the lobby. We should stop this. On the one hand it is dangerous in case they fall down and hurt themselves; one the other hand, it breaks the tranquility of the school environment. Please remind your children in a proper way to not run or chase in the above mentioned areas. Safety is our first and upmost priority.
谢谢大家对学校的关爱和对我们行政管理团队工作的大力支持。
Thank you once more for your great support and trust.
谢谢大家！
Thank you all!
