    What is Mandarin Immersion? 

     

    Chinese partial immersion is a means of acquiring Chinese through content matter instruction. In this program, students develop communicative and academic
    proficiency in Chinese while succeeding academically in all subject areas at levels comparable to those they would have reached if they had been schooled only in
    English. Beginning in 5-year-old Kindergarten, our elementary students in the partial-immersion program spend half the day studying the regular grade-level curriculum and standards in classes conducted in Chinese. The other half of the day is conducted in English. Mathematics and science are taught in Chinese. English
    language arts, social studies, and related arts are taught in English.
