Mandarin Immersion Parents Council

Of course our friends up in Canada have a different school system to contend with (and decades of strong immersion programs in French and English to point to) but it’s still interesting for folks in the United States to look at how parents can organize to push for Mandarin immersion in their schools.

Welcome to MandarinForBCSchools.org! This website was created by parents for parents to share information about bilingualism and to help bring a K-12 Mandarin bilingual education program to our public school system.  We are presently three parent groups, located in North and West Vancouver, Vancouver, Tri-Cities, Burnaby and Richmond.  If you would like to give your child the gift of bilingualism, join us!

You can see their meet up page here.
