Chinese School Association in the United States

Founded in 1994 the Chinese School Association in the United States (CSAUS) is a non-profit

organization for Chinese language education in USA. Its mission is to promote the Chinese language and

culture education, contributing to the overall Sino-American cultural exchange. Currently CSAUS has over

500 Chinese school members covering the majority of the states with over 100,000 students and over 8,000

teachers. The fact that all member schools provide relatively stable Chinese course offerings at stable

locations attracts not only traditional inheritage Chinese learners but also non-inheritage population adding

diversity to the schools. As the largest grass-root organization for Chinese Americans, CSAUS encourages

active involvement in various cultural events and activities by its member schools and has been playing an

important role in promoting Sino-American friendship.

For nearly a quarter century, led by its Board of Directors CSAUS has been working diligently on

promoting development and improvement in the Chinese language educational frameworks and systems,

providing platforms for teachers and school management teams to exchange ideas and learn from each

other, enhancing educational training and learning materials By doing all of these, CSAUS is able to help

promote the long-term and positive development of the Chinese language and culture education in the

U.S. Not only that, it also contributes to the overall cultural exchange and cooperation between China and

United States and impacts positively on the harmonious relationship between the two countries.

CSAUS hosts a bi-annual member school convention since 1995. The next convention will be held at

the end of 2018 and a new board of directors will be voted in for a two-year term by member schools’

representatives. All CSAUS board members, including president and vice president and their staff are without

pay. They volunteer their time, expertise and skills to help promote the Chinese language education and

have by far achieved what the founders of CSAUS had visioned it to achieve.

Chinese language and culture for people in Cincinnati and its surrounding areas. It promoted Chinese culture

and served as a bridge to connect the people with Chinese heritage and other ethnic groups.

With the commitment and dedication from the generations of volunteers, GCCS made extraordinary

contributions to the Chinese education in the Greater Cincinnati region. The number of student enrollment

increased dramatically from original 70+ students and 8 teachers to over 230 students and 23 teachers. There

are over 200 students graduated from our school. Jianyao Li, one of GCCS graduates, is a member of the

of China with families and friends from GCCS and other local organizations. Because of its impact, local TV

stations and newspaper had sent their crew on site to conduct interviews and make news clips.

As a grassroots organization, Greater Cincinnati Chinese School played a key role in contributing to the

culture diversity of the Greater Cincinnati region. It united the Chinese in the Tri-state area, promoted Chinese

committed to our mission and resolved to continue our success story. We believe with the determination and

hard work of our volunteers, the future success of GCCS will be beyond our imagination.
