Dear All,
It is Mid-Autumn Festival on Sunday; we are very happy to celebrate the holiday together as a big family this year at NCLS! Every faculty’s family, including teachers, adult teaching assistants, and school Admin, will get a box of moon cake. Hope you will enjoy it!
The Teachers’ Evaluation team had the kick-off meeting last week; they will start their first meeting with this semester’s teacher participants on Sunday. Let’s wish the team and our teacher participants having a smooth start and accomplishing a successful process.
Our teaching blogs have drawn more and more attention from all viewers. We’d like to remind you about copyrights of internet resources – our teaching blog is one of the internet resources too. Please do not just make copy+paste of other teacher’s blog contents into your own blog. If there is an interesting idea on another blog, and you might want to learn from it, then please make citation. Please cite the author and/or provide the link to the resource when integrating the idea in your blog. School has started to work on documenting a guidance regarding this operation.
The writing competition has been extended to Oct. 15, 2012. Please refer to the notes below from school journal’s. Thank you for your participation and support to this event!
See you on Sunday!
Nan and Guangsong
各位老师，家长和同学们，
牛顿中文学校首届“星光”杯作文大赛暨美东地区第一届少年儿童中文写作大赛正在同步征稿当中。该项活动受到了我校广大师生的热烈响应和大力支持。在此向已经送出文稿的同学以及你们的老师和家长表示感谢。
考虑到新学期刚刚开始，很多学校反映学生来不及准备，美东地区第一届少年儿童中文写作大赛组委会现已决定将截稿日期延长到10月15日。据此，我校的“星光”杯作文大赛截稿日期也顺延到同一时间。希望更多的家长和老师帮助和鼓励你们的孩子或者学生参加投稿。具体要求请查阅校刊2012－6和2012－9两期上登载的信息。
据补充通知，美东地区第一届少年儿童中文写作大赛组委会已决定增加一项优秀指导老师奖，请各位同学在作文上注明指导老师姓名。所有稿件请尽快email到smilingtang@gmail.com, 手写的稿件，可直接送到校刊编辑部（唐微收），也可扫描后存为PDF文件，再email到上述信箱。另外，参赛的作文不一定是现写的作文，过去的作文一样可以参赛。
再次感谢你们对本次作文大赛的支持和帮助！
