Nepali School 2023: Important Information
Below are the information on class/teacher assignments, textbooks, PTA, calendar, and few other items as we get ready to start the new school year on Sunday, January 8.
Class/teacher assignments: please click here to access the spreadsheet containing information about students’ class, assigned teachers, and class rooms. The students can be moved to a different class if we determine that his/her knowledge of the Nepali language fits more with a different class. Please contact us at ncnc@ncnepal.org or Bikram Gautam at 919.656.6070 [Text only] if you do not see your kid’s name in the sheet.
Textbooks: We haven’t acquired any new textbooks this year and plan to use the textbooks we distributed last year. We sincerely request all parents and students to bring ALL Nepali textbooks they have at home on the first day of class. We will recycle, redistribute, and reuse the books this year and only buy books if needed.
Extra-Curricular Activities: We plan to provide traditional Nepali dance, Nepali instrument – Madal lesson, Yoga, and few other activities in the second hour of each class. Students can sign up for only one extra curricular activity each week. PSA: please help us identify resources in the community who can offer Nepali instrument lessons – Sarangi, Bansuri, Madal, etc.
Notebooks and Pencil: All students should bring in their own notebooks and pencils. Please sharpen your pencils at home as we don’t have sharpeners in classrooms.
Calendar: Nepali Pathshala runs every Sunday (1 pm to 3 pm) from January to September at HSNC in Morrisville. The school observes major US holidays – Memorial Day, July 4th, and Labor Day and will remain closed on those weekends.
PTA Group: We need a dedicated group of volunteer parents to set up classes at the start and clean up rooms at the end on a regular basis and to provide other occasional assistance. Please reach out to Prem Pradhan [919.656.2118] if you want to be a part of the group.
Snacks and water: With increased number of students, we can’t manage the logistics of providing snacks at the end of the class. Students can bring in their snacks they can eat during break or at the end of the class. All students must bring in water bottles.
Enrollment Fees: If you have not paid the registration fee yet, please Zelle your dues to Bikash Shakya at 765-464-9310. NCNC membership is mandatory for the students’ parents. Please obtain your membership at https://www.ncnepal.org/become-a-member/.
