Registration Information
We are currently accepting new application for 2023-2024 school year.
The spring semester will start on January 7, 2024 and end on May 5, 2024, every Sunday
for 15 weekends. For Chinese, there are eight comprehensive courses from
preschool to AP Chinese which will run from 2 to 4 pm. From 4 to 5 pm, the
School will inaugurate special interest classes, including Fun with Mathematics,
Challenge Math, Handicraft, and SAT.
In addition, in order to better provide children with a safe learning environment,
and at the same time ensure the School can sustain modest tuition fees during a
period of hyperinflation, four adults will be on duty every Sunday from 1:45 pm to
5:10 pm during the school term. Two will be directors of the School, and the other
two will be parents of our students. The staff on duty is responsible for the
arrangement of desks and chairs during the day, cleaning of the classroom, and
safety of students during and between classes. We will charge an additional
deposit of $30 per semester per family as service fee at the time of registration.
The detailed charging standards are as follows (total basic fee = registration fee +
Chinese lesson fee + book fee where applicable + service fee).
1. Chinese class only:
| (a) $235 for preschool ($10+$170+$25+$30) |
| (b) $225 for grades 1 to 6 ($10+$170+$15+$30) |
| (c) AP Chinese class requires $210 ($10+$170+$30) |
2. For Chinese class plus a specialty class, an additional $90 will be added to the
above fees.
Note 1: Craft class teachers may collect an additional, very small amount of material fees.
Note 2: Those who register after December 3, 2023, will be subject to a late registration charge of $10.
Note 3: Only the new student needs to pay textbook fee.
To register, parents should first complete a Google Application Form.
Please make a check payable to "The Mandarin Chinese School" or "MCS", and pay tuition in-person to school's registration staff before or on 12/3/2023, along with the completed and signed Waiver Form.
Please be sure to fill in the child's current grade level and the grade of the Chinese
school in the registration form. We will coordinate the placement of students after
the registration is complete. In addition, we also welcome novice students to enroll
in the K class. Please kindly share the above information within your social
network as appropriate. The School or
individual teachers will notify the parents as soon as possible to confirm placement
and share details on starting classes.
No refund requests will be accepted this semester unless the class is canceled due
to the lower enrollment, and students may only apply for one class change within
two weeks of the start of semester, subject to availability.
We look forward to finally reuniting with our children and parents after a long
hiatus in our lively and interesting classrooms and also look forward to warmly
welcoming new students and their parents into our MCS family.
There are eleven Chinese classes (from
a preparation class
to 10th grade), five
levels of math classes (Fun
Math, Challenge Math, Olympiad Math, and SAT Math), VEX, and Drawing classes. If you are not sure into which class your kids will fit,
consult the school
principals.
Your kids may be a visitor in a class for the first time to see if he/she
fits the curriculum. Please see Ms. Ting Bai at MCS for
details, or you can
email
us
with your questions.
If you want to know more about classes and teachers, please enter
classrooms.
Textbooks are needed for all Chinese classes. Other
classes such as Drawing may have special requirements for materials. Ask
your teacher for more specific information. You can find Chinese exercise
references in our
library.
