2. We received emergency notice from Paramus Catholic School, this Sunday on 5/18, the school will have a big event, we can't use the regular parking lot and it will be very crowded. Please follow directions and park your car in south field, please park in order and don't use too much space, thanks for your cooperation.
3. On 5/12, a massive earthquake hit SiChuan, China. Within a few days, death toll is already over 19,500 and rising fast. Tens of thousands of people are still buried in rubbles. Millions of lives are affected.
Huaxia Chinese School Headquarter wants to extend our deepest sympathy and condolence to those of our school families who have casualties and injuries among their loved ones in China. We wish more survivors would be found in the disaster region.
To express our care for the millions of people who lost so much in this unexpected disaster, Huaxia Chinese School Headquarter is once again collecting donation from all willing students and families. Natural disaster has immeasurable destructive power. But it can also help strength the invisible bonds and bring out more of our inner love.
Donation is entirely voluntary. This Sunday (5/18) in Cafeteria our Bergen school will collect donations, parents will get a receipt for donations and all donations are tax deductible. Please make the check payable to "Huaxia Chinese School" for "China 2008 SiChuan Earthquake". We will gather all donations and send to Huaxia Chinese School Headquarter. Thanks for your support!
