- 上周六 11/12/2016已将Self-storage room 清理干净。绝大部分书籍及家具物品已存放于张松华家中；少量书籍将陆续放在家长休息室供大家免费选取。非常感谢陈曦，杨建平，刘斌，杨晨敏，王静，徐肖江，李冰，许麟，葛少平，张治平的积极参加。
- 重要通知：为增强交流，学校IT部门经多方努力重新做成了一个新的RACL电邮群 everyone@racl.org，根据当前现有学生的注册信息，把学校当前现有学生家长和老师的电邮地址自动纳入其中。只有学校少量工作人员能够发送电邮至此新的电邮群。以前的电邮群 racl@googlegroups.com （此电邮群不能自动包括学校当前现有学生家长和老师的电邮地址）会很快停止使用。志愿服务及工作人员若您不是当前现有学生家长，老师及个别岗位有RACL电邮的人员（registration@racl.org, academics@racl.org等），以及想加入RACL 电邮群的人员，请抓紧时间（两周之内）发电邮至vm@racl.org，主题栏（subject line）写明 “subscribe volunteers@racl.org”。IT 人员会将您加入 everyone@racl.org.
希望此次电邮群更新能提高学校与家长，老师以及志愿服务及工作人员的有效交流。若有问题或建议，请发电邮至system@racl.org 。
- 学校同意“关于儿童与青少年（7-14岁）感恩的发展”研究项目组在我们学校征集家长和孩子参与研究。家长知情同意书已发给学生了。这周，请家长签字后让学生把知情同意书返还给老师（不管您及学生是否同意参与研究，只要将签好字的家长知情同意书返还给我们老师，项目组会给学校2美元的课堂活动经费）辛苦大家！
RACL是每位家长和每位孩子的， 谢谢所有人的支持。

- The Self-storage RACL rented was emptied and most of the books and furniture were moved to Songhua Zhang’s house. Thank You goes to Steve Chen, Jianping Yang, Bing Liu, Chenmin Yang, Jing Wang, Xiaojiang Xu, Bing Li, Lin Xu, Shaoping Ge, Zhiping Zhang for their great helps and efforts.
- Important announcement: In order to continuously improve communication within the school, the IT department has created a new email group with the address everyone@racl.org. All the active parents and teachers have been added to this list automatically based on our registration database. The list will be maintained by a nightly program to ensure it’s always up to date. Only a limited number of staff members will have permission to send emails to this address.
We are going to retire racl@googlegroups.com soon. For volunteers that are not active teachers, parents, or part of other staff member list (e.g. registration@racl.org, academics@racl.org), please email vm@racl.org with the subject line “subscribe volunteers@racl.org” to be added to the volunteers@racl.org group, which will be used by the nightly program to update everyone@racl.org. We hope this change will make our regular communication more efficient and effective. Please email system@racl.org if you have any questions or suggestions.
- RACL agreed and distributed the consent form to students by our teachers for the research project the development of gratitude in children aged 7 to 14. Whether you wish your child to participate or not, please return the form to your child’s teacher by this weekend, then the study team will give $2 as classroom activity fee to the school for each form that is returned!
Thank you for supporting RACL!
Sincerely,
Zhiping Zhang/张治平
