As the sole branch of the renowned Huaxia Chinese School system on Long Island, our school has attracted students and parents from all over the region. With exceptional teaching quality, diverse cultural programs, and engaging parent activities, our school has grown from a small group of families to a thriving community of nearly 500 students from over 400 households across Nassau and Suffolk counties, as well as Queens.
Our school has not only created an excellent learning environment for students to acquire Chinese language skills but also serves as a platform for the community to embrace and promote Chinese culture and traditions. Under the effective management of a dedicated team of parent volunteers, our rigorous curriculum and outstanding faculty have earned us an excellent reputation within the Chinese community.
We offer comprehensive Chinese language courses from preschool to the tenth grade, as well as free cultural enrichment classes such as Chinese calligraphy, painting, music, dance, and poetry recitation for younger students. Our high school debate team has consistently won numerous awards at the Huaxia headquarters competitions, and our graduating seniors have achieved excellent results in both the AP Chinese and HSK exams.
To ensure that our teachers are equipped with the latest teaching methodologies, we collaborate with the Huaxia headquarters and other branch schools to provide ongoing training and exchange teaching experiences.
We warmly invite you to join our school community and become a part of our mission to promote Chinese language and culture.
