NVCS currently has 26 Chinese (Mandarin) language teachers and 10 after-class activities & cultural instructors and 11 Teacher Assistants. We are very pleased that a slate of advisor including Anne Chen, Robert Chen, Mike Chen, Bill Yen and Yeni Wong are also part of the NVCS team.
The school was founded in 1989 with the mission to provide a superb learning environment in Chinese language and culture for the next generation of ethnic Chinese families and non-Chinese community's members in the Northern Virginia area. The NVCS offers Chinese (Mandarin) language courses including Phonics Traditional & Pin-Yin Simplified for students ranging from pre-K (age 3 & up) to 12th grade that focus on leadership and public speaking training.

In terms of academic activities, the Chinese speech contest, the Chinese words contest, and the Teacher Day Celebration are three major events sponsored by the NVCS annually. Both the NVCS Chinese Folk Dance Team and Karate Team have been very popular and are routinely invited to perform in various community events with great appreciation from the hosts and audiences.
The NVCS strongly believes that the school can contribute significantly to the cultural diversity of the Washington Metropolitan area by implementing its mission through the effort of all volunteers with your support and sponsorship.
