A Note from the Principal

Dear FCS Families,

It's wonderful to see our school year settling into a rhythm — that busy, cheerful hum on campus every Saturday is one of my favorite things. Thank you for your continued patience as a few details keep coming into focus: some classroom assignments are still in motion, and we'll keep you posted as these settle.

I'm also delighted to share that more parents have stepped forward to join our staff this year — it's wonderful to see so many familiar and new faces pitching in around campus. Thank you for bringing such great energy to FCS!

Thank you again for your continued support — here's to a great year ahead!

Warmly, Angela — Principal, Fremont Chinese School

Week 3 School Update

Classroom Change

One classroom change this week:

  • C2 (Ms. Wun) and C5 (Ms. Lau) move from room 218 to room 221.

Parking Reminder

Friendly reminder that staff and teachers will need to display a parking placard, and the school will check periodically — please help by avoiding the staff/teacher parking areas.

If you're dropping off, picking up, or need to park to come onto campus, please use the Visitor Parking lot (on the Greenpark Dr side, per the campus map). Thanks for helping keep parking running smoothly!
