Mission Statement
Yinghua Academy is the only full immersion Mandarin Chinese K-8 school in Minneapolis. It opened in 2006 as the first public charter Chinese immersion school in the U.S. and the first Chinese immersion school in the Midwest. Yinghua continues to be a national leader in education, offering an international perspective and outstanding results.
About This Cause
Yinghua (英華) stands for English – Chinese. We offer students of all backgrounds and abilities a bilingual, bi-cultural and bi-literate English (American) and Chinese educational experience. Prior knowledge of Chinese is not required for students at Yinghua Academy. We combine the best practices in educational research from the United States and China, bringing a safe, rigorous, and happy learning opportunity to all children in accordance with equal opportunity and non-discrimination policies. Immersion education has been proven through research to be effective for all learners, including students with many special education needs, socio-economic challenges, gifted-talented students, and non-native English speakers (of any language). We believe in the importance of preparing all children to be global citizens. Through Chinese language learning, rigorous academics, and service-learning during their formative years (K-8), our students will acquire the skills to achieve in Advanced Placement coursework in high school, and develop knowledge and skills to make future contributions to their world.
