Mission Statement
The CAIS mission is a call to action to all community members—students, staff, parents, alumni and the Board of Trustees. It reflects both the vision of our school’s pioneering founders and the school’s responsibility to prepare students for the world into which they will graduate. If you take a walk around our school, and you will find that our mission is alive everywhere; everyone you meet—from our youngest students to our parents, to our staff—can recite the mission, and the activities you will see at CAIS are mission inspired.
About This Cause
Founded in 1981, CAIS is an independent Pre-Kindergarten through eighth grade co-ed Chinese English dual language immersion school. We are located in the Hayes Valley neighborhood of San Francisco and span across two campuses. The Waller Street Pre-K campus accommodates three and four-year-olds and is a 10 minute walk from the main Oak Street campus, which houses Kindergarten through eighth grade classes. From Pre-K through fifth grade, CAIS students spend a half day learning the core subjects of language arts, social studies and math in an immersion setting with native Chinese speaking teachers, and a half day with English speaking teachers. In middle school, the key subjects of math and science are only taught in English as we prepare the students for high school.
