Dear Parents: May 04, 2016
Thank you for your generous contributions to the collection of non-perishable food items for families in Jianshih and Wufeng Townships. Attached are a couple of pictures of the growing stockpile. We will continue to collect donations this week and next week. The Food Drive Trip to Hsinchu is Saturday, May 14. The cost of the trip is NT$1000/person. Today is the final day to sign up, so please call the office if you are interested in attending.
We are particularly thankful for Mr. Tarpy, who has contacted Costco for donations. If you have the opportunity to involve a local merchant, please feel free to do so. If there is a need, we are willing to pick up items and bring them to GCA.
There are only 6 weeks remaining in the school year. Registration is going well, with new families joining GCA in all three divisions of our school. We have met some wonderful new families; the new students will be an asset to the classroom dynamics. If you have not yet registered, please do so as soon as possible. This is considerably significant for high school students.
Schedules are designed for the students who have registered, so those who wait for the summer may discover in August that they cannot fit all of their course choices into their schedule.
For your convenience, please note the following calendars. These last few weeks will pass by quickly. Again, I apologize that we cannot permit any students to take exams early.
Under God’s Grace,
Bonnie Chow
