This morning you may see 15 visitors observing in the PreK, K1 and K2 classes. The are colleagues of our former TA, Lucia Jin. They are here to see how we embed PYP into the Early Years. Please welcome them when you see them in the halls. I am sure they’d love to chat with you if you have the time. Offer them a cup of tea and a tête-à-tête!

Grade 9 Biology investigation
Dear grade 9 students,
Bob W. is working is investigating the effect of time of day on reflex time in grade 9 students. He has asked kindly that all grade 9 students take a super quick, super fun reflex time test during advisory today and at 3pm. (click here).
You can screenshot the result or send him the number at the end of the 5 trials. Please, no practice, as it changes the results of the test. His email is muyuanwu@nanjing-school.com.
Thanks much!

The Library Fish is Edgar!
Thanks to those of you who contributed a suggested name for the new library fish! We will be going with Maxi Bauerschmidt’s idea of “Edgar” (Edgar Allen Poe).
However, there is some speculation that Edgar is in fact, a SHE in which case we may have to switch to Dr. Juan’s suggestion of “Ursula” from Gabriel Garcia Marquez’s One Hundred Years of Solitude.
Thanks to the staff and students who sent in names. Come visit Edgar any time-
