 For
twenty five years, Chinese American International School has been
educating students for academic excellence, moral character, and
international perspective through immersion in American and Chinese
culture and language. We are proud to be the nation's oldest and
leading PreK-8, Mandarin-English immersion school.
CAIS has been on the forefront of teaching Chinese language and
culture for 25 years. In honor of this milestone event, CAIS will
celebrate by highlighting the unique traditions of Chinese culture
throughout the 2006-2007 school year. We invite everyone in our
community and beyond to join us in a year of celebration!
