Three winning teams will be determined through five rounds of student competitions, divided by classes. The first round of tug-of-war competitions was held the afternoon of October 14th on the BRS playground, and all the participating teams exhibited high spirits and morale. The competition was hard-fought and fiercely competitive. The final tug-of-war competition is planned for the afternoon of October 26 and teachers and students are all welcome to join us.
3. New Teacher Training
On the afternoon of October 15, the Professional Development Center organized a new teacher training. Mr. Caleb Aaron Foister from the Student Affairs Office gave classroom management training to 15 high school teachers, some new and some teachers with less than three years of experience. In the training, Mr.Caleb Aaron Foister targeted explanations on four key issues: Dealing With Anger, Unmotivated Students, Behavior Modification and Socialization Skills.
