Our full immersion enrichment program provides our students with a classroom environment in which they are receiving 50% of their daily instruction in English and 50% of their daily instruction in Mandarin.

The primary goals of the program are for students to attain bilingualism and bi-literacy in two languages, English and Mandarin; achieve or exceed grade-level proficiency by meeting or exceeding state standards; and develop positive attitudes towards other cultures in order to participate as multi-literate citizens in an international community.
