致全體教職員工的公開(kāi)信
親愛(ài)的老師和職工：你們好！
如今是原定寒假后開(kāi)學(xué)的日子，而此時(shí)的校園，由于延期開(kāi)學(xué)，雖鳥語(yǔ)花香春光爛漫，卻沒(méi)有書聲沒(méi)有人影，一片冷清。
2020年的寒假，因一場(chǎng)讓人始料未及突如其來(lái)的疫情而分外漫長(zhǎng)。也許當(dāng)武漢出現(xiàn)不明原因肺炎時(shí)，我們沒(méi)有意識(shí)到這會(huì)與我們相關(guān)；當(dāng)病毒被命名為新型冠狀病毒、會(huì)傳染時(shí)，我們也覺(jué)得離我們還很遙遠(yuǎn)；而當(dāng)席卷全國(guó)的防疫行動(dòng)隨之而來(lái)時(shí)才后知后覺(jué)。大疫當(dāng)前，誰(shuí)也不能獨(dú)善其身，我們，本就是命運(yùn)共同體。
全民抵抗疫情
全國(guó)的醫(yī)療精英隊(duì)馳援湖北，一場(chǎng)沒(méi)有硝煙的戰(zhàn)斗打響。多少普通人挺身而出，不顧個(gè)人安危，奮戰(zhàn)在抗疫第一線。全國(guó)后方人員響應(yīng)政府號(hào)召，少出門，不聚集，居家自我隔離。此時(shí)，我們的命運(yùn)息息相關(guān)，保護(hù)好自己，就是保護(hù)好他人。每一個(gè)人，都為防疫擔(dān)負(fù)起應(yīng)盡的責(zé)任。
美視的教職員工們，也在這場(chǎng)抗疫戰(zhàn)中，盡心盡力，盡職盡責(zé)。這其中有落實(shí)各項(xiàng)防疫措施、摸排重點(diǎn)人群的各級(jí)領(lǐng)導(dǎo)各位老師，有值班值守的干部和保衛(wèi)人員，有密切聯(lián)系家長(zhǎng)，事無(wú)巨細(xì)執(zhí)行到位的班主任，也有為校園環(huán)境消毒的保潔人員……，還有每天都進(jìn)行健康申報(bào)的全體教職員工。校園的寧?kù)o安好，有我們共同的守護(hù)。
停課不停學(xué)，為開(kāi)學(xué)做準(zhǔn)備
疫情期間，我們的生活有諸多不便。董事會(huì)響應(yīng)政府號(hào)召，對(duì)老師亦有諸多防控方面的要求，也盡最大的努力，積極給予老師生活上的支持。而作為教育工作者，面對(duì)2200多名學(xué)生和他們的家庭，我們牢記著我們教書育人的使命。許多老師克服困難，返蓉隔離14天。學(xué)校也給與外地返蓉的教職工各種支持。非常時(shí)期，心有余而力有所不逮，不周到之處，請(qǐng)諒解。
“停課不停學(xué)”，是另一個(gè)挑戰(zhàn)。線上教學(xué)或是網(wǎng)絡(luò)遠(yuǎn)程辦公；選擇合適合宜的內(nèi)容，探索新的教育教學(xué)方式，我們重任在肩。望各位老師，在做好自己防護(hù)居家隔離的同時(shí)，投入到新的任務(wù)，教育引導(dǎo)學(xué)生在家學(xué)習(xí)，不負(fù)時(shí)光不負(fù)韶華。
疫情，改變了我們的生活方式。作為傳遞知識(shí)文化薪火的知識(shí)分子，相信老師們會(huì)有更深刻的思考。相信經(jīng)歷過(guò)這場(chǎng)刻不容情的考驗(yàn)，我們會(huì)有所得有所悟。請(qǐng)教給學(xué)生，讓他們學(xué)會(huì)用多維度多層面去認(rèn)識(shí)和思考。請(qǐng)把IB“用教育讓世界更美好”的理念，結(jié)合那些抗疫一線普通人物的感人故事，傳達(dá)給他們。告訴他們，在他們身后，是大批守護(hù)我們生命的可敬的人；希望他們未來(lái)有所建樹，去創(chuàng)造更美好的生活；也堅(jiān)定他們的信念，那些打不跨我們的，終將使我們更強(qiáng)大！
美視的未來(lái)有你們而燦爛
美視18歲的生日由于經(jīng)歷了這次事件讓我們更加團(tuán)結(jié)和堅(jiān)強(qiáng)。我們盡心盡力的教職工讓我對(duì)美視的未來(lái)更有信心。我們堅(jiān)信，沒(méi)有一個(gè)冬天不可以逾越。校園中的海棠花開(kāi)得正盛。一切都在好轉(zhuǎn)，春天正在來(lái)臨的路上。希望疫情早點(diǎn)結(jié)束，希望山河無(wú)恙，人世皆安，校園還是舊時(shí)春天最美的模樣。而我們，可以自在地奔跑在和煦的春風(fēng)里，自由地沐浴在燦爛的陽(yáng)光下，真切地?fù)肀б粋€(gè)新生的春天。
各自安好，相約春天！

Open Letter to Faculty and Staff
Dear Faculty and Staff:
This week should have been the first week of school after the winter holiday. We should have been hearing sounds of students’ reading or playing, yet the campus remains quiet and closed.
This winter holiday felt like an eternity due to the unexpected coronavirus outbreak. When Wuhan first reported a novel coronavirus incident, perhaps we did not realize the virus would impact us in Chengdu; when the virus was confirmed to spread through human contact, perhaps we still felt the epicenter was far from us; at present when the novel coronavirus is affecting everyone’s daily lives, perhaps we begin to realize that no one person can withstand this epidemic alone. We are a community unified by a shared event.
Whole Nation Mobilized to Fight Against the Epidemic
Medical professionals from across the nation rushed to Hubei province to provide medical support. Countless ordinary people volunteered to the front line in Wuhan, without regard to their own personal safety. Other citizens answer to the call from the government - “stay home and avoid crowds.” At this time, our lives are interconnected. By managing and protecting ourselves, we are also protecting others. We all are making contribution in this fight against the epidemic.
The faculty and staff of CMIS are also making valiant efforts to combat this epidemic. Among them, the academic leaders and teachers surveyed the community to identify potential instances of infection; operations team and security guards who remained on campus to safeguard this community; our homeroom teachers who are in frequent communication with our parents and students; the cleaning team who carefully clean and disinfect the campus regularly. Lastly, everyone has been diligently updating health condition daily. We are all doing our part to safeguard this community and this campus.
Distance Learning and Preparation for the Start of School
Everyone’s daily life is impacted by this novel coronavirus situation. The CMIS Board of Director is closely abiding by the requirements from the government, and has requested numerous prevention and control practices of our faculty and staff. At the same time, we continue to make efforts to support our teachers and staff during this difficult time. I am often reminded that we are guardians to more than 2200 students and their families, and as educators we must bear in mind our mission to teach and educate our learners. I am very appreciative of the many faculty and staff who are overcoming travel difficulties to return to Chengdu and observe the 14-day self-quarantine. The school is also providing financial support to help our teachers and staff to return to Chengdu. During this extraordinary time, we appreciate your support and understanding for any inconvenience caused.
Distance learning is another new challenge. Teachers are tasked with experimenting with online learning, while others are learning how to conduct their work remotely. Despite these challenges, I applaud you for selecting appropriate content and exploring new teaching methods. I hope all faculty and staff observe good safety practices at home, and continue to guide our students to study at home.
This novel coronavirus situation has changed our way of life. As intellectuals and as educators, I trust you have your own profound thoughts and reflections. Learning and education occur all around us, and I encourage you to share your perspective about this extraordinary time with our students, and ask our students to learn and reflect from multiple perspectives. Please also convey the mission of an IB education, which is to “create a better world through education” and intertwine with the real stories of ordinary people in the front line of the epidemic. Allow our students to appreciate that there are many people who put their lives on the line to protect ours. Hope our students can reflect on this time and make the best of their lives’ opportunities, and reaffirm our belief – that which does not defeat us, make us stronger.
The Future of CMIS Remains Bright Because of You
This year marks the 18th birthday for CMIS, and I believe this incident has made this school stronger and even more connected. I am also more confident than ever in the school’s future because of the dedication and support from all our faculty and staff. This winter season will surely pass. I hope this epidemic will come to an end soon, so we can all enjoy the beautiful campus during the spring season. By then, we can once again run under the trees, bathe under the bright sunshine and embrace a new spring.
Best wishes, stay safe and see you in the Spring!
