To celebrate the traditional Chinese festival – #MidAutumnFestival, nine Chinese NPO organizations will jointly host a celebration event on September 29th at Eisenhower Park. Our organizing committee has spent days planning this event, including purchasing floating lanterns so that all the children can receive free water lanterns at the event. They can design their own patterns and send their best wishes by releasing these lanterns on the lake. During the event, there will also be cultural performances, free mooncakes, and many other complimentary gifts. Most importantly, admission is free. We hope you won’t miss this significant traditional cultural event on September 29th. Special thanks to @David Zhang, @Christine Liu, @Derek, and all colleagues for their hard work. We also appreciate the generous sponsorship from Chase Bank, the Jewish Community Center (JCC), and IKEDO Ramen.
Dear Parents, Students, Faculty members and volunteers,
It is with great pleasure and deep pride as we gathered celebrating the successful academic year at our esteemed New Hyde Park Memorial High School on Jun 4th 2023. The past year has been filled with growth, achievement, and moments that will forever shape our collective journey towards language mastery and cultural appreciation.
First and foremost, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to our volunteers. Your unwavering support and engagement have played a vital role in our students’ success. Your active involvement in their education and your commitment to fostering a supportive learning environment have greatly contributed to their progress.
I would like to thank our diligent and dedicated students. Your commitment to learning the Chinese language and embracing its rich cultural heritage is truly commendable. Each Sunday, from Fall to Spring, from Winter to Summer, you have walked into our classrooms with eagerness, and a hunger for knowledge. your progress has been nothing short of remarkable.
This year has been a testament to the fact that language learning extends beyond textbooks and classrooms. We have witnessed the transformative power of language in bridging cultural divides and fostering understanding. Through our language immersion programs, cultural activities, you have experienced firsthand the beauty of the Chinese language and the depth of its heritage. Your ability to navigate the complexities of the language and your appreciation for its nuances have grown tremendously.
I also want to acknowledge the dedication and commitment of our extraordinary faculty members. Your tireless efforts and passion for teaching have undoubtedly shaped the future of our students. You have embraced the responsibility of nurturing young minds with great care, instilling in them not only linguistic proficiency but also a profound appreciation for Chinese culture and History. Your unwavering support and guidance have been instrumental in their academic achievements and personal growth.
Furthermore, I extend my deepest gratitude to the parents and guardians present here today. Together, we have formed a strong partnership in equipping our students with the tools they need to navigate the ever-changing world with confidence and cultural understanding.
As we reflect on the past year, let us also look towards the future. In the coming year, we will continue to expand our curriculum, incorporate innovative teaching methodologies, and provide exciting avenues for cultural exploration.
Finally, I want to leave you all with a quote from Confucius: “知者不惑,仁者不忧,勇者不惧。” which means “Education breeds confidence. Confidence breeds hope. Hope breeds peace.” Through our collective efforts in nurturing the linguistic and cultural competencies of our students, we are sowing the seeds of a brighter future—a future marked by understanding, harmony, and collaboration.
Congratulations to each and every one of our students for their remarkable accomplishments. May your journey continue to be filled with knowledge, growth, and endless possibilities.

Due to the snow and rain expected tonight, the New Hyde Park School district will be closed tomorrow for safety reasons. Since we had only one snow day planned for the year—and we already used an emergency closure day on November 16—we are requesting approval to add January 4 as a SCC school day. This date was not originally included in our calendar, but adding it will ensure our students receive the instructional hours we planned.
In addition, our after-school programs will be extended to December 21.
This was a difficult decision: on one hand, we want to keep our program on schedule, but on the other hand, we do not want to risk anyone’s safety, especially given that many of our students are very young.
We apologize for the inconvenience this change may cause. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
Due to weather conditions, the Mid-Autumn Festival event scheduled for Friday has been rescheduled to Sunday. Sunday will have clear skies, and the last supermoon of 2023 will rise this week. The two largest planets in our solar system, Jupiter and Saturn, along with the smallest, Mercury, will accompany the moon in the sky. Don’t miss the splendid sight of the Harvest Moon shining alongside these three planets. Under the starry sky, with beautiful lake and a full moon, let’s enjoy this wonderful moment together at Eisenhower Park
