The objective of the school is to provide an environment and opportunity for all interested (with or without Chinese heritage) students to learn Chinese language and culture. The school teaches standard Mandarin, its Romanization system, pinyin, and simplified characters, and it emphasizes all four aspects of the acquisition of a language: listening, speaking, reading, and writing.
Buffalo Chinese School is a non-profit, non-political, and non-religious educational organization. It was established in the middle of the 1990s by a group of enthusiastic parents with only a dozen students. Today, it has developed into an organization with more than 100 students at 12 levels.
The School is supervised by the Board Committee which consists of parent and teacher representatives and by the Parent Committee. It is affiliated with the Western New York Chinese Club and a member school of the Chinese School Association of the United States. We welcome and appreciate donations from organizations and individuals.
