Dear Parents and Guardians,
This is a reminder that Friday is a Half Day for Teachers’ PL. The school will be dismissed at 11:30 AM, and the school buses will leave at 11:45 AM. There will be no lunch during this half day. This is a system-wide Professional Learning day for all teachers to meet, receive training, and learn from each other.
再次提醒大家，週五學生只有上半天課，下午是老師的專業教育培訓。 星期五我們上午11:30放學，校車11:45準時出發。 由於上課只有半天，學校當天不提供午餐。 設立教師專業教育培訓日，讓教師們相互發展、相互觀摩、相互學習。
Happy New Year,
Dr. Kim

Dear Parents:
As university applications become more and more competitive, a student’s activities have increased in importance. Come join this session as I teach on what makes a strong activity, how can parents support their students activities, how activities are structured at MAK. Summers are also important in a high school student’s career and with travel resuming students have a variety of opportunities available to them. I will present on different options for summers and how to use summers to benefit your students’ growth and applications.
The session will be on Feb 2 at 2pm-3pm in the Band room. Please RSVP by replying to this email.
Mr. Newkirk
