We are thrilled to welcome beloved elders again to our Grandparents and Special Friends Day tradition! This is a wonderful opportunity for grandparents and special friends to spend quality time with their loved ones at our school. Join us for a memorable time at the Chinese American International School and enjoy the unique experience of a CAIS school day firsthand.
