新年快乐 / 新年快樂 XĪNNIÁN KUÀILE HAPPY NEW YEAR
Lunar New Year is known as chūnjié (春节), or Spring Festival. While it’s the coldest time of the year, it marks the turn-around in seasons, when people begin to look forward to spring (and in past references, new planting). It symbolizes new beginnings and fresh starts.
To our students, we are wishing you much academic success and progress in this new year!

Family Game Night
Dear Paulo Families,
Family Dinner Night, the initial rollout of our Paulo Families Campaign, was a resounding success. Our next initiative is Family Game Night. See below and the flyer pictured for details.
How to participate in three easy steps:
1. Schedule a day over the next 10 days (between Jan. 20 and Jan. 29) and put it on the calendar.
2. Set out some games in preparation. When in doubt, charades is a timeless classic- no set-up required.
3. Set the phones aside, get in the competitive spirit and put on your game face, but remember, it’s only a game focker! J
And if you want to earn an easy service credit, snap a family photo and upload it to this Google Form. The form will close and the opportunity to earn a service credit will end on January 30.
For questions/concerns, please contact our parent coordinator, Ms. Taccetta.
We hope you will partake, and enjoy an evening with those closest to you!
