Huaxia Bergen Chinese School Notice (8/20/2020)
亲爱的老师，家长和同学们：
大家好! 时间就像是纵横交错的网线，密密斜织着我们的工作、学习和生活。转眼又到了新学年开学的日子了，感谢在这特殊时期即“后疫情时代”我们仍然在一起，还是那句话“缘份”！
从目前情况看，疫情对我们仍然有影响，基于对老师们和同学们的健康安全考虑，我们在今年秋季仍然进行网上授课。然而面对网课的挑战，老师们变被动为主动，先行一步，从8月19日已经开始进行第一期＂网络直通车＂的教师培训课程，就＂网课的问题与解决办法＂，＂高效而有趣的网课设计＂，＂网课的辅助软件与资源＂等等系列课程，进行为期十次培训，使老师们通过培训能够充分利用网课的特点－－素材资源丰富，形式活泼多样化，包括音频视频文字图片等...使新学年的教学形式更加丰富有效，带领孩子们进入新颖的网络课堂，通过多样化的教学方式，让孩子们放飞享受云课堂，坚持学习中文，遨游于博大精深的中国文化之中！
现将华夏博根中文学校2020-2021学年的开学方式和课程安排公布如下，以便家长报名。
1. 整个2020-2021学年将分为两个部分，9月13日到1月17日是第一个学期，1月24日到5月23日为第二个学期。第一个学期确定为网课，第二个学期的上课方式根据下半年的疫情发展来决定，如果条件允许，将回PCHS高中上课。
2. 学校仍然保持周日上午9:30到13:00的上课时间，2020-2021学年的第一次课是2020年9月13日。
3. 网课的班级人数限制在最高15-18人。这样如果我们恢复回学校上课，也不需要调整班级的人数。

Dear teachers, parents and classmates:
Hello, everyone! Time is like a crisscross network cable, densely weaving our work, study and life. In a blink of an eye, it’s the beginning of the new school year. Thank you for the fact that we are still together in this special period, that is, the "post-epidemic era."
Judging from the current situation, the epidemic still has an impact on us. Based on the health and safety of teachers and classmates, we will still conduct online teaching this fall. However, in the face of the challenge of online courses, teachers have turned passive to active, taking the first step. The first "Internet Express" teacher training course has been carried out since August 19. A series of courses such as "Efficient and Interesting Online Course Design", "Auxiliary Software and Resources for Online Courses", etc., are trained for ten times so that teachers can make full use of the characteristics of online courses through training-rich material resources and lively format diversification, including audio, video, text, pictures, etc...makes the teaching methods of the new school year more abundant and effective, and leads children into novel online classrooms. Through diversified teaching methods, children are free to enjoy the cloud classroom and insist on learning Chinese. Travel in the profound Chinese culture!
The opening method and course schedule of the 2020-2021 school year of Huaxia Bergen Chinese School are announced as follows for parents to sign up.
1. The entire 2020-2021 school year will be divided into two parts. September 13 to January 17 is the first semester, and January 24 to May 23 is the second semester. The first semester is determined to be an online course. The second semester will be based on the development of the epidemic in the second half of the year. If conditions permit, you will return to PCHS high school.
2. The school still maintains the class time from 9:30 to 13:00 on Sundays. The first class of the 2020-2021 school year is September 13, 2020.
3. The class size of online courses is limited to 15-18 students. In this way, if we return to school, there is no need to adjust the class size.
4. Because the first semester is determined to be an online course, the Chinese school did not increase tuition this year. The specific annual tuition fees are as follows:
Classes Yearly Tuition
Chinese class $420
AP Chinese $525
Culture class (45 minutes) $190
Culture class (60 minutes) $280
Oil painting class (90 minutes) $525
Kid AI Programming $480
