Chinese Immersion

Chinese Immersion FAQS | Chinese Imersion Parent Resources

Since 1996, students have had an opportunity to participate in a Chinese Immersion program. In this internationally renowned program, the students study reading and language arts in English and learn math and science in the Chinese language.  Parents may select this program for their kindergarten and first grade students, and the students remain in the program throughout the elementary years.  

Our Chinese Immersion Program teaches the standard Montgomery County Public School (MCPS) curriculum.  Children acquire Mandarin Chinese naturally in the classroom setting as they participate in hands-on learning experiences that are directly related to learning the MCPS curriculum.

In our increasingly interdependent world, parents realize that there are many advantages to knowing two languages.  Chinese Immersion offers a unique opportunity for children to acquire a high level of proficiency in Chinese at an early age.
