Shanghai American School had the chance to celebrate the collaboration with Community Center Shanghai’s Minhang branch. On this occasion, CCS is also honoring us in a special way, officially naming SAStheir “Founding Organization since 2013.” Honoring our history together, this recognition gives SAS a permanent presence in the stories CCS will tell of its history for all the years to come.
上海美國學校與上海眾心國際社區中心閔行分部續簽了合作協議。在這個特殊時刻，創立于2013年的上海眾心國際社區中心以特別的方式向我們表達了感謝，正式將上海美國學校確定為他們的“創始組織”。作為對我們共同歷史的紀念，這一殊榮讓上海美國學校在上海眾心國際社區中心的歷史中占據了一席之地。
As Shanghai’s largest, most storied international school, it only makes sense that Shanghai American School would build a strong relationship with Community Center Shanghai, and they with us. Our experience has shown us that a world-class international education involves a deep commitment and connection between the school, our families, and the wider community we call home. Community Center Shanghai has been the perfect partner to foster just that: it is a place filled with resources for our international community to better connect with opportunities in the city they now call home. The programs at CCS, from charities to counseling to classes, are varied and numerous, just as a city and community this diverse and ever-changing needs.
作為上海規模最大、最具傳奇色彩的國際學校，上海美國學校與上海眾心國際社區中心建立強勁的合作關系是必然的事情。（此外，上海眾心國際社區中心經理曾楨的女兒最近剛從上海美國學校畢業。）我們的經驗告訴我們，世界級的國際教育需要學校、家庭和社區的強強聯合。在這方面，上海眾心國際社區中心是我們理想的合作伙伴：他們提供了豐富的資源，讓我們的國際社區能夠更好抓住上海提供的機會。同時，上海眾心國際社區中心還提供了多種多樣的項目，從慈善活動到咨詢課程等，就像上海這座城市一樣豐富多彩，需求不斷變化。
Marcel Gauthier, Head of School at SAS, says, “One of the inherent truths about international schools is that our opportunity to serve goes beyond education. Our families are often far from their support systems of family and friends, professional networks, and sense of community. We fulfill some these additional needs through parent/school partnership programs and groups such as our PTSAs. However, the Community Center Shanghai is able to perfectly complement what we can do as a school. For example, CCS can go deeper on language tutoring, hobby and craft explorations, and professional/personal development.”
上海美國學校校長Marcel Gauthier表示：“對于國際學校來說，我們提供的不僅僅是教育。學校的很多家庭通常遠離了由家人朋友、同事和社區組成的支持體系。而我們通可以過像家委會這樣的家長/學校合作項目及團體來滿足其中一些需求。然而，上海眾心國際社區中心能夠對我們所做的工作進行完美補充。例如，上海眾心國際社區中心可以深入進行語言輔導、愛好和工藝探索以及職業/個人發展。”
As a school founded in 1912, we know a little something about the roots and heart that can be found in honoring where you began. Cheers, Community Center Shanghai, to a great partnership. We are honored to be a founding member, and thrilled to be at your side as you grow.
作為一所創立于1912年的國際學校，我們深知根源的重要性。很高興我們能與上海眾心國際社區中心建立良好的合作伙伴關系，也很榮幸能夠成為社區中心的創始成員，上海美國學校樂于共同推動上海眾心國際社區中心的發展。
PARTNERSHIPS. EVERY DAY AT SAS.
合作。就在上海美國學校的每一天。
