Dear Parents:
The Daylight savings time will be ending this coming Sunday 11/2, please set your time back one hour, hope everybody enjoy an extra hour of sleep. However, it will be darker when we leave the school. Please pay more attention during walking and driving in the dark, safety is always our school’s top priority.
1. Chinese Mid-term Exam this week (not including Ma Liping classes):
In last week’s newsletter, we already sent all review material (Ma Liping classes not included). If you missed it, please check this website: http://blog.newtonchineseschool.org/blog/2014/10/23/ncls-weekly-newsletter-23-oct-2014/
Hope all students prepare well for the midterm.
2. Just a reminder to everybody, the annual NCLS Talent Show will be on this Sunday 11/2 at the school’s auditorium from 5:00 to 7:30 pm, if you have interest to attend, please email: supporteducation@newtonchineseschool.org Here is the registration form:

3. Student Rules:
Since we had two false fire alarms recently, the school board, admin team and PCC decided to take extra actions to avoid such kind of things happen again. In addition to school’s effort, we hope all parents work with us together, educate your kids at home, tell them the serious consequences caused by pulling the alarm on purpose, or damage the school property, etc. These inappropriate behaviors will result in family financial penalty and discontinuation of school status. At the same time, we requested teachers to re-emphasize the school rules in school class time. We believe all these effort will ensure NCLS a pleasant and healthy learning environment for the community.
One more thing we would like to address: we noticed that a lot of NCLS students took books from Day School library and left on the table randomly, according to the agreement between Day school and NCLS, we are not supposed to touch the books, computers etc. in the library. Please tell your kids about these rules.
4. Upcoming Annual Thanksgiving Party:
