Dear Elementary School Parents and Students,
We hope this letter finds you well and that you are enjoying a relaxing and refreshing summer break. As we prepare to begin the new academic year (2025–2026), please note that the first day of school is Monday, August 11th. This will be an orientation day designed to help students settle in, meet their teachers and classmates, and get familiar with school routines. We are eagerly looking forward to welcoming everyone back and starting an exciting new year together.
Orientation Day Details:
Student Drop-Off: Students should be dropped off at the front entrance of HAS between 8:00–8:10 AM.
Student Pick-Up: front entrance of HAS
3:15 PM for students not attending clubs
4:10–4:20 PM for students participating in clubs
Directions to our campus are available here: https://has.hc.edu.tw/contact-direction
For families using the school bus, the General Affairs Office will share the pick-up and drop-off schedule.
What to Bring:
To ensure a successful and comfortable first day, students should bring the following items:
A water bottle
A pencil and eraser
Active wear for physical activities
A laptop or device for academic use
We will continue to provide buffet-style lunches, so students participating in the school lunch program should also remember to bring their own eating utensils.
Homeroom Teacher Communication:
Homeroom teachers will be sending out welcome letters with additional details later this week, so please keep an eye on your email. We are excited to see everyone soon and wish you a joyful and successful school year.
Warm regards,
Darin Murphy
