Eugene, Oregon votes for Mandarin immersion
January 12, 2017
The Eugene School District will offer a fifth language immersion program to its students beginning in the 2017-18 school year.
At its meeting Wednesday, the Eugene School Board unanimously voted to approve the district’s proposal to implement a K-12 Mandarin Chinese program.
But concerns about a split school location and equitable practices dominated the conversation about the future program.
The plan is to implement a Mandarin Chinese program in the Churchill High School region of the district, beginning at the Family School at Crest Elementary School. The school has four classrooms available, the district said.
