He then showed the parents fruitful results of the extracurricular activities and their outstanding achievements and put forward his vision for the future. The speech was followed by VicePrincipalZhang. She introduced the College Counseling team for the next two years and briefly described the process and key points of college applications.

In the past year, the now 11th graders had also achieved a lot of honors in extracurricular activities. Finally, IB & AP Coordinator Ms. Jiang introduced the IB learner profile and the conceptual requirements of the IB courses.

At the end of the first part of the meeting, parents went back to the homerooms and the homeroom teacher of each class introduced the parents to the class. They briefed parents on the main arrangements for the school this semester and the preparations students would need to make for university applications in the following academic year.
