2023-2024 Back To School Letter

Dear Parents and Students,

I hope this letter finds you well and you are enjoying your summer break. As you may already know, the first school day is Tuesday, August 8th. We are thrilled to welcome you back on campus and are excited to start the new school year at our brand new campus.

On the first day of school, the student council organized icebreakers and activities to help students get to know their peers. Students are advised to wear comfortable shoes and bring their school bag, stationery, and water bottles. In addition to these activities, students will receive their locker keys and textbooks. Students will also get to know their teachers and which classes they teach. It is an excellent opportunity for students to start the school year on a positive note and get to know their new surroundings.

Parents who are dropping off or picking up their children from school should enter through the front gate of Chunghua University. If you need help locating our campus, please follow the directions provided in the following URL: https://bit.ly/2Hcp1UP. For students who take the school bus, the pick-up and drop-off schedule has been emailed to you by the General Affairs office. We will also be returning to buffet-style lunch, so please remember to bring your eating utensils if you are on the school's lunch program.

We look forward to seeing you all soon and wish you a happy and successful school year.

Best regards,

Darin Murphy

Superintendent

Hsinchu American School

親愛的家長和學生們您好

希望您們正在享受美好的暑假時光！或許您們已經牢記，新學年的第一天開學日是8月8日（星期二）。我們迫不及待地期待在全新的校園裡歡迎大家回來，開啟嶄新的學年。

在開學當天，學生會將籌備進行一系列破冰活動，幫助學生們相互認識並促進交流。建議學生們穿著舒適的鞋子，攜帶自己的書包、文具和水瓶到校。除了破冰活動，學生們還將領取置物櫃鑰匙和教科書。這是一個絕佳的機會，讓學生們快速熟悉校園環境。

家長接送孩子，請由中華大學正門進入，點擊連結(https://bit.ly/2Hcp1UP)可以查看進入校園，車輛行駛路線圖。申請搭乘校車的學生，總務辦公室已寄送接送時間表到您的電子信箱，請您留意。另外，我們的午餐將回復為自助餐形式，因此參加學校午餐計劃的學生，請記得攜帶餐具。

期盼在開學日見到大家，祝願在新學年能快樂學習並且達成心中目標。

祝您一切順心，萬事如意！
