Mrs. Anny Wang, principal of the school, gave a speech to all the teachers and students at the beginning of the semester, expressing the expectation of teachers, students, and parents for the new semester and outlining the beautiful blueprint for the future of the school. She said that in the new semester, our school will carry out a series of measures such as parents' reading clubs, overseas study classes, character education and other measures to strictly emphasize teaching quality, strengthen home-school communication and enrich school life.

Then Mr. Hyun Jun Jang, the Academic Principal, talked about the definition of happiness with our students. And he told all the students to do their best to make the investment in their future: “Studying that you are doing at this age at this time is your investment for your future. Even though learning English, math, science, and other subjects are difficult, and you might think reviewing, & doing your homework seems unbearable you should invest in your future life; to be truly happy in the future. This is the reason why you should study hard. ”

Sebastian Zhang and Coco Wang, as outstanding students and freshmen representatives respectively, encouraged the students to write a new chapter with diligence and wisdom in the new semester and starting line.

The opening ceremony ended with everyone singing the song of IVY. At the same time, it also meant the beginning of a new journey for teachers and students in our school. As the Academic Principal Mr. Hyun Jun Jang said at the end of his speech, If you are successful after 10 or 20 years you would probably look back and think "wow I am glad I worked so hard when I was in school so I was able to achieve such a successful life."
