明天的線上校際演講活動有部分時間與我們的上課時段重疊，所以請參加活動的家長先與老師溝通協調參與學生的上課方式。

今年的認字活動將在5月21日舉行。經過教務會議的討論，今年將用評量檢定的方式取代以往的比賽模式，增加所有學生的參與感及鼓勵學生自我對中文的學習。活動細節將會由老師做進一步說明，但請家長提早協助學生們做準備。

這星期天就是母親節了，先祝各位媽媽母親節快樂！

Dear MCS Families,

The annual inter-scholastic speech event will be held virtually during our regular class hours tomorrow, so for those families with students representing MCS to participate in the event please make arrangements with the respective class teacher in advance in accordance with the instructions separately distributed.

As a heads-up, our annual word recognition event will be held on Saturday, May 21 via an “evaluation” format (vs. contests in the past) to encourage all students’ participation and promote students’ interests of self-learning.  The event details will be further communicated by the teachers.

Last but not least, this Sunday is Mother’s Day so Happy Mother’s Day in advance!

Parent on Duty:

Family: Anoop, Vasu/Lee, Yun         

Tasks:

• Keeping the school hours by ringing the bell at the beginning and the end of each class
• Keeping students in order and safe during recess (e.g., no student running/chasing allowed inside the Ward church)

Despite the improvement of the overall COVID-19 situation, please continue to stay vigilant against  COVID-19 and be reminded of a few safety protocols below.  

COVID 19 Protocols

• Students should review the student at-home screening sheet before arriving at school.  
• If your child tests positive for COVID-19, please contact your teacher and class parent rep.  
• A student or staff member who tests positive for COVID-19 must quarantine for two weeks.
• Universal masking upon entering the Ward Church facility. 

Health and Wellness Practices (in School & at Home)

• Details can be found here; 
• Two friendly reminders:
  • Universal masking upon entering the Ward Church facility
  • No indoor food consumption; snacking at outdoor areas only

Student Volunteer Sign-Up! (Link Here)

All actual volunteering hours will be tracked and provided with MCS’s community service hour certificates.  We look forward to having more student volunteers from the  current MCS registering families (teachers included) and/or MCS alumni.

MCS Volunteer Sign-Up (Link Here)

MCS is a non-profit co-op organization with students’ parents serving various non-teaching staff positions as volunteers to help create a self-sufficient, community oriented Chinese learning environment.  Serving as MCS volunteer is a great way to get involved and expand your network with other MCS families, and any help you could provide is greatly appreciated.  Each volunteer family is eligible for a $30 volunteer reward at the end of the school year.
