On the afternoon of September 22nd, MIC marked a new milestone in home-school collaboration with the establishment of its eighth Parent-Teacher Association (PTA). The meeting was designed to bring together the collective efforts of the school, parents, and the wider community to foster a nurturing environment for the students' growth.
Unlike the usual formal and solemn meetings, this event felt more like a warm and friendly gathering between the school and parents. At the outset, the school's leadership, teachers, and parents assembled with smiles of anticipation and excitement.
Principal Feng Xiaosheng began by reviewing the school's achievements over the past academic year. He presented a series of detailed data and vivid examples to highlight the school's progress in teaching, student development, and accreditation. He also shared stories of the students' growth on their journey towards internationalization, allowing every parent present to feel the school's deep care and high expectations for the children.
The meeting then reached its climax with the certificate presentation ceremony. The school leaders solemnly presented certificates to the newly elected members of the eighth PTA, offering them warm congratulations and sincere thanks. These parents, from diverse backgrounds and united by a common educational vision, will play a crucial role as a bridge between home and school, contributing their wisdom and strength to the healthy development of the students at MIC.
Ms. Liang Yingyu, the president of the eighth PTA, addressed the gathering. She commended the school's improved educational environment and offered constructive suggestions regarding student course schedules and the addition of study areas on campus. “The PTA is not only a bridge between home and school but also a strong support for the children's growth,” she said. She pledged that the eighth PTA would actively engage in the school's activities and decision-making processes, contributing to the school's ongoing development.
As the meeting drew to a close, the PTA members engaged in lively discussions. Many parents shared the positive transformations they had witnessed in their children since transferring to an international school, noting improvements in language skills, broader thinking, and a wider international perspective. The parents also expressed high hopes for the PTA's future work, committing to fully support and cooperate with the school's initiatives to deepen home-school collaboration.
The successful conclusion of this PTA establishment meeting not only turned a new page in home-school cooperation at Meilun International High School but also laid a solid foundation for the students' holistic development and bright future. With the combined efforts of parents, the school, and the community, the future of MIC looks brighter than ever.
