Dear BVCS Families, Students, Teachers and Staff,

Despite it being a Friday afternoon, the energy on campus was palpable as our students and parents enjoying their ice-cream and popsicles. I would like to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude to all of you for making this year’s Ice-cream Social such an overwhelming success!

This event would not have been possible without the incredible dedication of our team. A special shout- out to our Director of Activities, Jennifer Chen, whose leadership and organization ensured that everything went smoothly. To the Assistant Director of Academic Affairs, Merry Wong, thank you for guiding our teaching assistants so effectively. To our administrative staff, your seamless coordination was the most important support. A big thank you to our three teaching assistants whose vibrant lion dance performance added a festive flair. And to Emily Wang, our talented teaching assistant, her captivating diabolo performance provided the perfect lively conclusion to our event.

In a heartwarming twist, our former Principal Kay Wang (one of our school’s founders) was delighted to have spotted in the crowd a former BVCS student and teaching assistant, who is now a parent bringing his own son to study Chinese at BVCS. It is truly a touching reminder of how our heritage continues to be passed down through generations.

Sincerely,
Shirley Lin
Principal

  3. 校園安全和規範 Campus Safety and Security Guidelines
    校園巡守員必須確保學生遵守下列規則:
    1. 學生不可攀爬, 快跑, 推擠。
    2. 上課中途進入校園的成人, 請先向校園巡守員登記, 表明身分。
    3. 教室內不可飲食。
    4. 尊重地主學校, 保持教室清潔, 切勿任意使用或搬動教室內任何物品。

    Our parent-yard-duties are entrusted with the responsibilities to monitor student activity and behavior on the school campus. To ensure a safe environment conducive to learning, our yard-duties will enforce the following rules:
    1. Students are prohibited from climbing, running or causing disruptions on the campus.
    2. Visitors who are not an immediate relative of students must check in with the yard-duty at the front gate and record on the "visitors book" their name, signature, the purpose of their visit, and the date and time of their arrival and departure.
    3. No eating or drinking inside the classrooms.
    4. Respect the host school, keep the classroom clean, leave items in the classroom as they are (including computer, documents, camera and students' artworks), and refrain from using or moving them.

  4. 家長休息室 Parents' Lounge:
    A102 教室為家長休息室。上課期間, 嚴禁在走廊遊走; 請降低聲量, 不干擾上課。
    Parents are welcome to stay in classroom A102 while school is in session. To ensure the safety of our students and to avoid distractions to teaching and classroom activities, parents should not loiter in the hallway or outside classrooms. Parents’ cooperation in maintaining a quiet environment is very much appreciated.

  5. 禁止使用手機 No Cell Phones Policy
      No Cell Phones   學區規定在校期間不用手機和電子用品, 必須放在背 包內, 同時保持靜音。 如不遵守, 就沒收, 放學後請和家長 一起來取回。 違反規定者, 可能導致漸進的紀律後果。 如 果在校期間需要聯絡家長或監護人, 可以到辦公室請求 幫助。

    BVCS adopts the policy of San Ramon Valley Unified School District (SRVUSD) on prohibiting the use of cell phones and other electronic devices at school. We believe that this policy will contribute to a more productive and less distracting environment for our students. During school hours, cell phones and other electronic devices should not be used, heard, or seen. This includes during class, school activities, and recess. Students should keep their phones turned off and secured in their backpacks, and they should not have them out anywhere else until the end of the day. If a phone is visible or audible at any point, it will be taken and held for a parent to pick up after school. Repeat violations may result in progressive disciplinary consequences. If a student needs to contact a parent or guardian during school hours, he or she may come to the office in Room A101 for help.
