About Us 學校介紹
光華實驗中文學校今年踏入快樂的第十二年。光華是一所非營利教育機構。學校的運作由熱心的家長們共同來計劃﹑完成﹐每一環節都歡迎家長參與。這些年來光華稟著傳揚中華文化和培育中文人才的宗旨﹐一直在為孩子們提供一個優良的學習環境。
光華的老師們都是在中文教育領域裡有多年教學經驗的老師，在提高孩子們學習中文的興趣上不遺餘力。中文及中華文化除了是許多孩子們自己的文化傳承之外﹐在現在全球化政治、經濟、文化的環境之下﹐學習這世界最多人口使用的中文﹐對孩子們將來的發展是非常有利的。為此﹐除了中文課本的教學之外﹐光華的老師們還盡力擴大孩子們對中文及中華文化的接觸，及對中華文化衍生而來的生活教育的了解。學校也藉著舉辦參觀和討論活動﹐來擴大孩子們對中文及中華文化學習的視野。讓孩子們在有趣的活動中﹐自然而然的對中文及中華文化的學習產生興趣。
歷年來﹐光華的孩子們在北加州中文學校聯合會舉辦的學術比賽中都有很好的成績。在2003年﹐光華的孩子們更在新澤西州的全美比賽中奪得第七屆全美青少年中華文化常識問答比賽的冠軍﹐為北加州中文學校爭取到非常大的榮耀。這個成就是光華的孩子﹑老師和家長們一起努力的結果。
每學年，光華除了配合北加州中文學校聯合會舉辦校內學術比賽之外﹐校內另有認字﹑成語﹑及文化常識等多項趣味比賽。此外光華也舉辦校外參觀教學及表演活動。這些活動可加強孩子們對中文及中華文化的學習，亦可增加孩子們在臺上表演及在人前講話的經驗﹐並且學習參加比賽的運動精神。
孩子們在上課的時候﹐家長們在光華也可參加一系列有利身心的活動﹐例如打籃球﹑打保齡球﹑爬山﹑串珠﹑中華文化學習、跳元極舞等。
光華實驗中文學校位於Berryessa學區之Ruskin Elementary School內。校址是 1401 Turlock Lane,
San Jose, CA 95132。靠近880

The North Valley Chinese School (NVCS)
has been providing Chinese language and culture education to pre-school
age thru 12th grade students in the greater San Jose area for the past
seven years. We strongly believe that the education our students are
getting from our school will enhance each of our student’s sense of
inner value and heritage identity, if applicable, and will help to
promote their understanding and appreciation for other cultures in this
age of globalization, and as a result, make them a better and more
responsible citizen in this diverse world-community.
For help our students to learn Chinese as an American, NVCS continues to
offer many programs to make learning interesting and relevant. In
addition to our annual campus-wide academic contest, our students also
get to test their skills in mini contests of Chinese words, phrases, and
culture. For the 2004-2005 school year, our higher graders engaged in a
live interview with a guest and went on a field trip to the Dragon Skies
special exhibit at the Oakland Chabot Space and Science Center, and
learned about Chinese astronomy. In the 2005-2006 school year, they will
interview another guest and visit the Cantor Arts Center at Stanford
University to look at the Center’s Chinese and other collections. Our
lower graders have fun with our outdoors teaching activities, where they
review their Chinese, play games, and have fun with lots of balloons.
