The CCGC Chinese
School is sponsored by the Contra Costa Gospel Church, located in Walnut Creek.
It is an organization serving the community in teaching the Grade 1-9 students
to learn Chinese.
Since the School's founding more than a decade ago, its goal has been the
double pursuit of teaching and developing student character. We have small
classes (not exceeding 15 students) Our teaching tries to generate the
students' interest to learn Chinese, seeking to develop a strong foundation in
terms of listening, reading, and writing Chinese.
Besides learning Chinese we also provide a rich assortment of selective
courses: history, Chinese SAT, basketball, singing, Chinese painting, table
tennis, etc. As the School expands, more courses will be offered to improve the
mind and health of students. At the same time, we also provide classes or
activities for parents, such as Tai Chi, yoga, cooking, basketball, table
tennis, etc. With the help of PTA we sponsor a Chinese New Year celebration
each year, as well as BBQ carnival, Easter egg hunt, talent show, and
competition in basketball and table tennis. These activities enhance the mutual
understanding of parents, and interaction of the community.
The teachers and staff members of the CCGC Chinese School are all Christians,
showing great love in caring for each student. Our Bible classes are to teach
the students the right life-view and to develop a good character. To look into
different aspects of the children¡¦s education, the School regularly invites
relevant experts, scholars, and parents, for consultation and holds
seminars/workshops on such topics as marital relationship, parent-child
relationship, etc. For low income families, we also provide financial
assistance in tuition costs.
