Dear Parents and Guardians,
親愛的家長及監護們,
Thank you for your continued support as the school navigates through Covid-19. With the recent New Moon Festival holiday, I wanted to give the school community a friendly reminder to please practice self-health awareness by monitoring temperatures and symptoms at home and not sending children to school if they are experiencing any symptoms of an illness.
感謝您在這疫情期間持續地支持。我想給您們一個溫馨的提醒。隨著中秋節連假後,考量校園為高度密集場所,請大家實行自我健康監測,多加關注孩子們的體溫和症狀,若出現任何症狀,不得到校上課。
Please carefully monitor your child’s health before returning to school each day.
每日返校前,請務必密切留意您孩子的健康狀況。
Once again, thank you for your cooperation, support, and understanding. Your child’s safety and security is our #1 priority. If you have any questions, concerns, or needs, please email the MAK Office. The school will be happy to assist you in any way.
再次感謝您的配合、支持和理解。您孩子的安全及健康是我們最大優先考量。若您有任何問題、顧慮或需求,請發電子郵件給 MAK Office。學校很樂意為您提供任何的幫助。
Sincerely, Dr. Kim
校長 金德民博士 敬啟

SHARKS took a bite out of the Dragons this past Tuesday (on the volleyball court). After a slow start and trailing 14 – 20 in the first set, the Sharks were able to muster their composure and win 25 – 23. The next two sets, the Varsity team grew in confidence and closed out the match 25 – 13 and 25 – 15. Strong serving by Ashley Lai and Luby Chiu were highlights of the match. Senior middle player Annie Chen also had 10 kills with no errors. It was a good first match of the season against a familiar opponent. Next up for the Sharks is the Morrison Exchange on the September 17th weekend.
