Our Mission
The Mandarin Enrichment Program offers students from kindergarten through fifth grade an opportunity to learn Mandarin Chinese in a fun and engaging way. In self-contained classrooms that loop up together each year, the teacher speaks and teaches in Mandarin throughout the day, helping students use the language naturally as part of their daily learning.
Students learn through songs, rhymes, stories, games, and hands-on activities, making each day interactive and enjoyable. They develop skills in listening, speaking, reading, and writing in Mandarin, building confidence and strong language foundations.
Along with learning the language, students also explore Chinese culture and traditions, deepening their understanding of the world around them. Through this enriching experience, children grow as curious, confident, and culturally aware learners.
