Secondary Assembly｜在这个春天，点燃学习的激情与能量！

首先，在集会的前部分，中学部每个年级的学生们都以年级为单位，纷纷上台接受荣誉榜的颁发和合影。虽然在上一学期的后半段，同学们不得不转为线上学习，面临诸多的挑战，但孩子们在老师的引导和鼓励下，依然保持着对于学习的专注和自律，取得了令人喜悦的成绩。在荣誉榜的颁发中，我们发现，越到高年级，高等荣誉就越多，这标志着国际部学生们在持续不断的进步和成长，每一年都“更上一层楼”！

The first half of the assembly, students by grade level were recognized on stage for making the honor roll.  Despite the lingering effects of the pandemic and the challenges of unexpected remote learning in the latter half of term one, our students with the guidance and support of their teachers stayed committed to their studies to earn good marks.  As we moved on to the upper grades, so did our rates of high achievement.  This trend only highlights how THIS students are continuously growing and improving.

清华附中国际部执行校长李文平在集会上为学生在学业中所付出的努力，自律的好习惯和自主学习的良好品格给予了充分的赞许，并鼓励学生们要自强不息，追求卓越，不断探索，点燃学习的激情！

李文平校长还激动地宣布了今年“科研导师项目”的开启，学校邀请了科研和专业领域的顶尖专家学者作为学生的科研导师，致力于不断启发与激发学生对于学习和科研的热情，帮助和支持学生获得更多的学业成就。

Executive Principal Wenping Li praised our students and reminded them to keep striving for excellence – look for opportunities to expand, explore, and ignite your passion!  

Principal Li, also, enthusiastically announced the launch of the school’s Research Mentoring Program.  For its second season, the school has invited respected experts in their professional fields to serve as mentors to inspire and nurture our students as they climb to higher heights with their learning.

在接下来的集会中，我们共同祝贺了国际部运动队的成员们在上一学期取得的胜利！无论赛场上的比分如何，运动队中的每位成员都是赢家，因为他们在比赛中完美的展现了团队精神、集体精神和体育运动精神。

Next in the assembly program, our student athletes were celebrated for their achievements last semester.  Winners on and off the court or field, our players exemplify teamwork, school spirit, and sportsmanship. 

在科学、数学、创新和模拟联合国等各类竞赛中获得的个人和团队奖项也在集会上进行了颁发，同学们在不少比赛中都拔得头筹，屡获佳绩！祝贺同学们！

Other recognition and applause went to various individuals and groups for their successful participation in Science, Math, Innovation, and Model United Nations (MUN) competitions with many of our student leaders taking top honor.  Go Spartans!

此次的集会活动只是清华附中国际部日常教育教学的一个缩影，同学和老师们在学习和工作中都时刻践行着国际部的核心价值观，以他们的非凡的创造力、坚定的决心和真诚的关怀之心在每一天里闪闪发亮。
