Full list of Mandarin immersion schools updated

I just posted a newly updated list of all the Mandarin immersion schools I’ve been able to find here. If you know of one that isn’t on the list, please contact me. I’m going to do some number crunching about the state of Mandarin immersion this week and want to make sure I’ve included all the schools.

If you do have a school that’s not listed, please include the following? Many thanks!

 

Name of school

year it began offering Mandarin immersion (kindergarten and beyond only, not preschool.)

Are simplified or traditional characters taught?

Is the entire school devoted to Mandarin immersion or is the program a strand within a larger school?

Is the program one-way or two-way? One way means all students must already speak English when they begin. Two-way means that the program is meant to teach Chinese-speaking children English and English-speaking children Mandarin.

Is your program part of the Utah consortium (if you know.)

Is your program an IB school?

    I don’t know if u have thus information, but I drove to Racine Wisconsin to check out the supposed trilingual Montessori program. They r listed on your website, have a website, Facebook page, but fail to answer phone calls and emails. So after making numerous inquiries for a year,. I personally went to the Address on their Facebook page and there is NOTHING! no school, no sign, and no one in the area can support that any school is coming. Please take this off your website, or make note of this information.

      I am so sorry! I had no idea. I’ll take them off the list and see if I can find anything out about them. How horrible. My apologies.

      We really don’t have sign ups, it’s just an informational blog.
