Love Was in the Air . . .

-


The Lunar New Year and Chinese New Year, also known as Spring Festival, are celebrated in many countries around the world, especially countries with large Asian communities. These celebrations, held in January or February, honor ancestors and customs that bring good luck, good fortune, wealth, happiness and prosperity. The festivities last over 15 days with dragon dances, lion dances, gift exchanges, fireworks, and lantern festivals.

 祝您新年快乐,身体健康

Wishing you a Happy New Year and Good Health!

Year of the Ox!


Happy Sunday Community Families!

February is the shortest month, 
but filled with so many special celebrations. 
I wish you all happy Lunar New Year, Valentine's Day, and Presidents' Day!

CMCS celebrated Valentine's Day with a Valentine's-themed distribution and a
fun-filled Virtual Sweethearts Dance party.

Love was absolutely in the air!

Presidents' Day is a federal holiday and occurs every year on the 3rd Monday in February. In 1885, Presidents' Day was established to honor George Washington, our country's first President. We now honor all of our nation's presidents, past and present, on this day.

Back-to-School Night

  Back-to-School Night is next week! It will be a very busy night for parents as we introduce our teachers and our new CFF board members, check out the classrooms and textbooks, and learn what our students will be doing and learning this school year. Parents will be asked to sign up for committees and/or Room Parent positions. Community Council nominees will introduce themselves before ballot voting at each grade level. While this event will be a busy and exciting night for parents, that's not necessarily the case for the students! Since they do  not actively participate in this event, they will have an especially long day at school. For these reasons, we ask that you please plan to  make childcare arrangements away from campus. There will be no childcare or supervision available at Back-to-School night.

I have been working throughout the weekend to ensure that there would be no interruption in after-school care at Community for those families. I appreciate the immediate response and support  from LAUSD Operations and Beyond the Bell  in helping to find an after-school program for Community as we wait for Got
