Support Education Working Group Announcement

Dear teachers and parents,

As we start the new school year of 2014 – 2015, the NCLS Support China Education Program has kicked-off its planning phase. This marks the 9th year of the Program. We will be providing support to students at CuoZhen ZhongXue in Anhui province(撮镇中学)。More information about this school and the students will be made available on the NCLS web site. To keep this year’s program successful, we are recruiting new working group members. The number of working group members is not limited. Any parent, teacher or staff who is interested in supporting and contributing is welcome to join. The working group members are all volunteers, but we would like you to take a look at your schedule before you apply, as we do need certain amount of commitment to the program as a team member. We will run fund-raising activities, have meetings and organize the students’ trip to China. If you are interested, please send an e-mail tosupporteducation@newtonchineseschool.org before Friday October 5th, 2014.

We are also forming a students volunteer group again this year. Every NCLS student above 8thgrade is eligible even if you are not planning to go on the trip to China in April and your volunteer hours will be recognized. For those students who would like to apply as a member to go to China in April 2015, volunteer work prior to the trip is required. We especially welcome our program alumni to volunteer again this year as a way to give back to the program. If you are interested, please send an e-mail tosupporteducation@newtonchineseschool.org as soon as possible.
