Teacher/Office Assistants Sign-Up Continues
Each year, our teachers rely on student assistants to help in and outside of the classrooms. The school office also requires assistance to help with copying and distribution of class materials. The availability of high school age students who are also graduates of HXNYC is an integral part of our school operation. It also makes the Huaxia experience a richer one for both student volunteers and their lower classmates.

我梦想中的中国
王安艨 12岁
安华中文学校，安娜堡，密歇根，美国
我是一个生在美国， 长在美国的中国小姑娘。 我梦想中的中国是彩色的，因为在我成长的不同阶段，中国留在我的记忆中有不同的颜色 。
小时候，我想象中的中国是粉色的。记得有一年过生日的时候，我打开的第一份礼物是一条粉红色的小裙子－那是爷爷奶奶从中国寄来的礼物。 爷爷的声音从电话里传出来 “祝可爱的小公主生日快乐”, 在他们口中我永远是他们可爱的小公主。“爷爷奶奶住在中国”，爸爸妈妈时常这样说: “在地球的另一半, 很远很远，那里有许许多多和你一样黄皮肤，黑眼睛的孩子” 。在五彩斑斓的世界地图上， 妈妈指着一大片粉红色的区域告诉我这是中国，我们的故乡，那里有我们的家人。“家人？"我好奇的问。“对”，妈妈回答。我半懂不懂，只记住了那条粉色的公主裙。从此每当我想起中国，就会想起粉色，想起远在中国的家人们的爱。
我梦想中的中国在我八岁变成了金色。那一年，我和我全家回中国去看望我们的家人。“快往下看，我们的飞机正在降落呢”，妈妈的叫声将我从睡梦中吵醒。飞机的舷窗外，黄褐色的土地在飞速地向后奔驰，远处汽车压过的路旁的土被一阵阵的微风吹起来，在空中形成一层薄薄的“纱子布”，然后啪啦啪啦摔回地上, 我的眼睛一直好奇地盯在窗户外面的黄色的土地上。到了爸爸妈妈的家乡，我们到乡下去探望一些亲戚。那是一个在黄河边上的小镇，远处原野上开满了金灿灿的油菜花；脚下奔流不息的黄河水在明亮的阳光下泛着金光。美吗？妈妈问，我出神地望着, 默默地点点头。在奶奶家里，我还吃到了美味的牛肉面－白白的面条浸在香香的金黄色的浓汤里，绿绿的葱花和香菜在金色的油泡泡上梦游，嫩嫩的牛肉和小油菜飘在汤面上, 我的口水都快要流出来了。从此我梦里的家乡多了一分金色，那里有让人流连忘返的美景和大快朵颐的滋味 。
我梦想中的中国当然也离不开红色。春节的时候，中国妈妈们都会到学校讲起家家户户贴在窗户上红色的剪纸，代表了普通中国人过年的快乐; 贴在门旁红纸写的春联，寄托了中国人对美好生活的向往。我最关心的却是爸爸妈妈奖励我和妹妹的红包和“春节联欢晚会”。 电视上那些高高舞起的长龙、载歌载舞的人群中舞动的红衣裳、以及门前高高挂起的红灯笼，都留给我春的记忆和渊源流长的中国文化。我渐渐长大了，喜欢上了花样滑冰，最让我难忘的红色，是2010年加拿大温哥华冬奥会，中国选手拿到了双人滑冠军后, 那面和他们一起优美飘舞的绣着五颗金色的小星星鲜红鲜红的绸布。 看惯了星条旗的我, 当五星红旗在赛场上升起的时候，也象他们一样，高高地仰起头。那一刻, 那一抹鲜红已在不知不觉中深深的印在了我的梦中。
我梦想中的中国, 色彩斑斓, 五彩缤纷。充满了爱，美景，和骄傲。
