PTO Newsletter for 1/26/19

1) Free seminar on teaching your children about money this Saturday, 10:00am-11:30am in Room 406 (inside Cafetorium).
Financial mistakes can doom your future. Knowledge is power; education is important! However, only 16.4% of US students are required to take a personal finance course to graduate high school in five states. Parents are child’s first teachers; 80% of parents have had financial conversations with their kids, however, most parents don’t fully understand how best to teach their children smart financial habits. This seminar provides an opportunity for parents to learn ways to help kids successfully navigate the pitfalls of managing money. Please sign up here to join the discussions: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/30e0b4aafa623a02-seminar. Refreshments will be provided. Giveaways while supplies last.
Food vendors will be in the Cafetorium lobby from 11:00am-12:30pm. This week's food vendors are:
- Domoko Sushi Ramen: teriyaki lunch boxes, ramen soup, and sushi rolls
- Happy Family: assorted appetizers and lunch boxes
- Hsiu-Ling Taiwanese Kitchen: assorted lunch boxes and bubble tea

PTO Newsletter for 1/12/19 家長會通訊

很多人因為缺乏健康的用錢習慣、不知道如何管理金錢，而陷於長期的財務掙扎困擾之中。財務規劃的知識與方法很重要，然而，根據報導，全美只有五州的學校規定學生在高中畢業前上一門個人理財課程，那人數只佔全美學生的百分之十六點四。
父母是孩子最初的老師，教育孩子如何用錢存錢，和養成孩子品格素質及選擇大學科系行業一樣，也是父母的責任。統計顯示，百分之八十的父母會與孩子談論金錢，但是，大部分的父母並不知道該如何養成孩子明智的理財習慣。理財規劃是相當專業的領域，本講座將提供機會讓為人父母者學得如何教導孩子成功理財的方法。講座中，我們將共同探討：
a. 教育孩子金錢觀的重要性
b. 如何教導孩子做出正確的理財決定
c. 做出明智的理財選擇決定的好處
歡迎一起來參與學習與討論！現場備有點心飲料。免費贈品送完為止。https://www.signupgenius.com/go/30e0b4aafa623a02-seminar.
家長會代售ShopRite、漢龍超市及大華超市等禮卡。每銷售一張禮卡，家長會將獲得百分之五到六的回扣、嘉惠學子！您可在接送孩子時，在前廳或大禮堂中向家長會義工購買。感謝大家對中文學校的愛護與支持。
