密西根中文學校週報 4/20/24 (MCS Newsletter 4/20/24)
密西根中文學校今年4/27/2024承辦第40屆密西根州中文學校校際演講比賽。那天將有密西根的4所中文學校的參賽學生，相信會有精彩的演講。4/27也和3/16的校内演講比賽一樣，也算是上課日。沒參加校際演講比賽的學生們必須在9:30am – 9:50am之間到校簽到，10am跟隨工作人員到場地A或場地B觀看比賽。希望大家可以借此機會，向這些各校的參賽者學習演講技巧，以在下學年的校内演講比賽可以有更好的發揮。
由於各校在上周才舉辦校内演講比賽，我們這周收到各校的參賽者名單，演講組還在安排參賽分組及裁判。這星期六旁晚7點，演講組將會與各校校長一起安排參賽者演講次序。Joyce將在下周發校際演講比賽表給有參賽的學生與家長，請留意信件。
相信大家都有留意到有家長發起有關修改手冊的計劃書，在上課期間向家長們爭取聯署，執行家長的權利以提交到董事會檢討。學校有熱心家長的關心以及建議絕對是無可厚非的。在此呼籲大家還沒簽署前，先熟讀手冊及瞭解要修改的内容以及動機，再表示支持與否。如果你對此聯署有什麽疑問的，可以找我或聯署發起人Jasmine Ku詢問。

Dear MCS Parents and Teachers,
Michigan Chinese School will be hosting the 40th Annual Michigan Regional Chinese Schools Speech, Story-telling, and CFL Recitation Contest on 4/27/2024. Students from the four Chinese schools in Michigan will be participating in the contest, and It will be a very interesting and competitive speech contest among contestants. 4/27 is also considered a school day, like the Speech Contest on 3/16. Students who do not participate in the inter-school speech contest must sign-in at school between 9:30am and 9:50am, and then follow the staff to Venue A or Venue B to watch the presentations. I hope you can take this opportunity to learn from these contestants from various schools so that you can be prepared for the speech contest during the next school year.
Since other Chinese schools only held their contest last week, we received the list of contestants from each school this week, and our speech contest team is still arranging the participating groups and judges. This Saturday at 7pm, the speech contest team will work with the principals of each school to arrange the order of the contestants. Joyce will send the inter-school speech competition schedule to our participating students and parents next week, please pay attention to your email.
I believe you have noticed that a parent has initiated a plan to revise the School’s Policy and Procedure handbook and collect signatures from parents to exercise the rights to submit the proposal to the board of directors for review. The concern and suggestions from enthusiastic parents at the school are absolutely understandable and appreciated. I would like to encourage everyone to read the School’s Policy and Procedure handbook and understand the content to be modified before signing. If you have any question, feel free to reach out to me or the parent, Jasmine Ku.
