From Principal Shawn Liu
• On 4/14 at the NEACS (New England Association of Chinese Schools) annual contests, 4 students from TCLS participated the typing contest and also 4 participated the speech contest. Da-Jin Chu, 6th grade, won the medium group outstanding award with the speed of 41 words per minute. I think it is more important to gain experiences from the preparation and the participation, but for sure we’ll continue to work on it to make it even better.
