Dear parents, 

I hope everyone had a wonderful Mother’s Day! It’s hard to believe that it is already time to  start planning for the end of the spring semester. In the past years, we would be having a busy time  working in the classroom and in the auditorium to prepare for graduation and the end of semester  ceremony, but this year we will have all the final ceremonies online as well as our assessments. 

1. We plan to conduct our assessment and online end as follows. 

1) Korean language assessment: It will be conducted in each class on June 6, 2020 2) Online end of semester ceremony catalogue: 

-. June 13, 2020, we will hold the end of semester ceremony beginning at 10 AM, and will last  about 30 minutes. 

-. The national anthem will be sung by the KSNE Students Anthem Group and thanks for the  students and their parents.

2. The school has bought an abundance of face masks. 

-. We have bought face masks with the intention of distributing them to the Korean school  students and their families.
