语言课教师家长会 Parent Teacher Conference (PTC)
Dear parents,
This Sunday, 12/7 , we will have a parent teacher conference (PTC). PTC is a very important meeting for parents to know the teachers and the curriculum. It is also an opportunity for you to voice your concerns or ask questions. Please make every effort to attend and be on time.
Pre-K, K and CLS will have PTC during class time. Your teacher will tell you specific time slot for you to go the classroom. Other classes will have PTC in either the B cafeteria (registration room) or H cafeteria (downstairs big room). More details below.Note: A few classes may not hold PTC this week due to absence of your regular teacher. Please follow your teacher’s instructions.

Contestants will be split into 5 groups, G1, G2, G3, G4-5, G6-9. Each group will produce top 3 winners. Grade1-3 winners will proceed to the Regional Final Speech Contest on 01/11/2015. G4+ winners will be Student MCs in future school event. 比赛分成5组3个赛场。每组产生前三名。
