East-West Students and Mrs. Katz at Asia Society with US Ambassador, Gary Locke

As a member of the Hanban-Asia Society Confucius Classroom Network, four East-West students were invited to Asia Society and Museum for a question and answer session with US Ambassador to China, Gary Locke.

Mrs. Katz writes:

We had a great round of Morning Musters last week. To summarize:

Wednesday: Ms. Chang and several Chinese language students spoke to the school about the history and traditions behind Lunar New Year. We had a fantastic three-day celebration of Lunar New Year, so stay tuned to the blog for an update with plenty of photos.

Thursday: An East-West dance team performed for the whole school! The auditorium was packed with people spilling out of the entrances.
