NMSC 2019 (4/13/2019)

KSEA Texas Coastal Bend 에서 주최한 제2회 NMSC 경진대회가 성황리에 마무리 되었습니다. 총 8명의 학생들이 참여하였고 올해는 콜퍼스의 이병현(Winsor park, 5^th grade) 학생이 영예의 1등을 차지했습니다. 내년에는 더욱 많은 학생들이 참여하는 남텍사스에서 자라나는 우리 2세들의 자랑스러운 대회로 자리메김할 것으로 확신합니다. 봉사자로 참여해주신 성창규, 김태식 교수님과 그 외 학생들 참여를 독려해 주신 이경은, 최윤수 교수님들께 감사드립니다. 내년에도 많은 성원 부탁드립니다.
