Official documents will be ready for pick up on Monday, June 16 from Agnes Liu, Registrar. Please make sure your child has submitted the checkout form indicating that he or she has returned all books and cleared all outstanding accounts. If you have any questions, please contact Agnes Liu at agnes.liu@wyischina.com.

Parents and students from Grades 3-12 are welcome to borrow library books over the summer if they are re-enrolled for the next school year. We simply ask that you do not take your library books out of Wuhan. If you plan to travel over the summer, please leave your books in a safe place at home, where you will not forget them.

Plan for high traffic and a longer commute this weekend as local high school students will be taking the gaokao test from Saturday, June 7 to Monday, June 9. This does not affect our students, though it may affect your commute to school.

Boxue Road will be closed to general traffic from Saturday-Monday. Vehicles can only enter the school from the north/New Golden Harbor side of Boxue Road. You must display your school parking pass to enter and exit the school. Shenlong Avenue will only be one-way from Bihu Road to Sanjiaohu Road.

Please allow plenty of extra time to allow for alternate routes and busy traffic. People who walk or ride a bicycle to school should not be affected.

The end of the year has quickly arrived, it’s time to say goodbye and see you again. All Secondary students are invited to come to the cafeteria on Wednesday, June 11 from 16:00-18:00 to sign yearbooks, dance, craft, eat, and say goodbye. We hope to see you there!

Note:

• Please bring your yearbook and pens.
