  9. Challenges and Possible Solutions
  10. Linguistic and program challenges Standardized tests (CST, MAPP, SATII, AP, ACT) are all given in English. Lack of appropriate Chinese language and content classes. How much Chinese is “enough”?
  11. Assessment The SFUSD’s Chinese language assessment to all 8th graders who have taken Chinese language classes ALHS’s CIP Chinese language assessment HSK (being considered)
  12. Recommendations Should not take more than two periods of English daily Should not use a content that requires Chinese proficiency level that is higher than AP Chinese level Parent-student buy-in is crucial Should take advantage of community resources (such as our YMCA after school program)
  13. Next step? Establishment of sister school with China’s high school Annual or every-other-year travel to China for student community service following the “Global Glimpse” model
  14. Questions? Anyquestionsorconcerns?
