I hope by now you are finding your ways around campus. Thanks to all teachers, TAs, parents and helpers helping our kids settle into this new campus.

Please,

  • Self-monitor if there are any COVID-19 symptoms. Do NOT send a sick child to school.

  • Be cooperative of temperature checks at the entrance of MS and AD buildings.

  • Bring your children to the language classroom by 2:25pm and culture class by 4:15pm.

  • Pick up your children by 4:10pm in front of their language classroom building (AD or MS) to either take them home or to culture class

  • If your child (T8, T9, T10) is in the SC building, the class parents will walk them over to the MEET place and direct them to their culture class location (AD, MS or outdoor).  You can pick them up at MEET place by 4:15pm if they are not taking culture class.

  • Pick up your child(ren) on time at 5pm from their culture class.

  • Dress your child(ren) in a PCLS T-shirt for easy distinction. It’s also easier to identify if he/she wonders around.

Additionally,

  • There will be a Welcome Parent Meeting on November 13 at 8pm. The PCLS admin team will be reporting out our school operation and long term plans. Everyone is welcome to attend and ask questions.

Considering we’ll only have two weeks of Chinese school in November, we decided to postpone the speech contest to 12/12 and 12/19. Registration google form will be sent out next week. Don’t miss out this opportunity for your child(ren) to practice public speaking IN CHINESE!
