3/16 HCSTC Announcement

Dear HCSTC students, parents and teachers,

March 16, this Sunday is a normal school day for us and for most non MLP classes, this Sunday is a mid-term exam day. We wish all our students doing well for their mid-term exam.

Next Sunday, it's our teacher/parents conference meeting day. Typically, the meeting will be 10-15 minutes between parents and class teachers and held in classrooms. It is a good opportunity for parents to take advantage of; you can talk to your teachers directly and discuss any questions you may have or issues you are concerned of. We will have a year end performance party on 06/02. For those classes plan to present program at the performance party, 4/6 is the audition(节目挑选审核) day. We'll announce the time as that date is getting close.

HCSTC is in the planning stage to organize the Summer school for the coming summer. The tentative schedule is from 6/22 through 8/3//2025 (6 weeks in total). This year's summer school is being cut short, due to the fact that FCPS starts its school year earlier than usual. So, we intend to finish our summer school on time and give students enough time to rest up before the FCPS's school year starts.

Our goals are again to review what your children have learned throughout this school year and help them complete their summer homework assignment with the guidance from our teachers (without parents' help).

Summer school is very important as it consolidates class materials learned in this school year and more importantly, to lay a solid foundation for your children to get ready for the new 25-26 school year. Summer school will be in the format of Zoom classes as the George Marshall HS may not be available to us during the summer. We are currently surveying our teachers to look for candidates who are willing to sacrifice part of their summer vacation times to take on this. More update will be followed in the future days.

Best wishes,

HCSTC
