Washington School Of Chinese Language And Culture

The Washington School of Chinese Language and Culture (WSCLC) was founded in 1986 by five Montgomery County families.  The goal of WSCLC is to provide an innovative learning environment that emphasizes the Chinese culture as well as the language for Chinese American students.  We hope our students will grow to be better citizens of this diversified society and to create mutual understanding and bond between Chinese Americans and other ethnic groups.

WSCLC has grown from 120 students in nine classes to nearly three hundred students in 21 classes.  Our student body has an age range between three and eighteen and assembles over two hundred families around the Greater Washington, D.C.  area.

WSCLC offers innovative curriculum in Chinese language and culture through inviting learning environment, effective teaching, and productive community partnership to foster better citizens who cherish their Chinese heritage.  We invite students who are looking to help out as a classroom teaching assistant for language classes and extra-curricular culture activities on Sunday afternoons.
