This week we celebrateFounders’ Week in honor of the day we first opened our doors on September 17, 1912.
这周，我们举行“创始人纪念周”活动来庆祝1912年9月17日上海美国学校的创立。
Life at SAS during the Consulate Years (1980-89) wasn’t nearly as active as it is today. Because the school was located on the grounds of the U.S. Consulate at the time, and consulates aren’t exactly known for their sports facilities. As SAS re-founder Linnea Lauer joked, “Students loved coming to school in those years. After all, there was nothing else to do.”
在“领事馆时期”（1980年至1989年），上海美国学校的校园生活并不像现在这样丰富多彩。这是因为，当时上海美国学校在美国领事馆开展教学，而领事馆并没有多少运动设施。上海美国学校复校创始人Linnea Lauer曾笑称：“当时，学生们喜欢来上学。毕竟，那时也没有其他事情可做。”
Once a year, however, that changed. Each year, SAS would hold Sports Day – a day when students would depart campus for sports fields around Shanghai, and spend the day running around playing all kinds of sports – some organized, some made up by the students as they went along. To help keep track of the students, each was issued an official SAS Sports Day t-shirt. To commemorate Founders Week 2019, the Eagle Shops have brought back the Consulate T-shirt – available in red or blue. Feel free to wear it, even when you’re not playing sports.
不过，这种情形每年都会改变一次。上海美国学校每年都会举行一次“运动日”活动——这一天，学生们将走出校园，前往上海周边的运动场，参加各种体育运动——一些运动项目是有组织的，另一些运动项目是学生自发进行的。为了更好地对学生进行管理，每位学生都会领到一件上海美国学校“运动日”官方T恤。为了纪念2019年创始人纪念周，上海美国学校“雄鹰商店”重新上架了“领事馆T恤”——提供了红色和蓝色两种颜色。大家可以随便穿，即便是没有参加体育运动也可以穿着。
Activities. Every day at SAS.
活动。就在上海美国学校的每一天。
Founded in 1912, Shanghai American School (SAS) is the largest and most established international school in China. In short, it's the kind of school you wish you would've attended when you were a kid.
创建于1912年，上海美国学校是中国最大的也是历史最悠久的国际学校。简而言之，如果你能回到小的时候，这会是一所你想要去的学校。
