The JK-8 Mandarin Chinese/English Immersion Program is one of only two Mandarin Chinese dual language programs in a Public School in New England. It is open to all students in the Cambridge Public Schools (subject to availability). The program is designed for native Mandarin Chinese speakers, bilingual and heritage Mandarin speakers as well as native English speakers to develop speaking, listening, reading and writing skills in both languages while realizing their academic potential in all of their academic subjects. The program delivers rigorous, grade level instruction in both languages daily. Within day-to-day learning, we celebrate the cultures and traditions where Mandarin is the official language or a dominant language including Mainland China, Taiwan, Singapore, Hong Kong, Macau, Malaysia and Tibet.

剑桥公立学校的JK-8中文/英文沉浸项目是新英格兰地区两个中文双语项目的其中一个。这个项目是开放给所有剑桥公立学校的学生(视空位而定)。该项目旨在培养母语为中文的学生、双语者、以及中文族裔语言学习者和母语为英文的学生,在所有学科中发展中文和英文的口语、听力、阅读和写作能力,实现他们在学业上的潜能。此项目每天都提供严谨的、符合年级水平的双语教学。在日常学习中,我们用心地利用各种教学决策来提升那些使用中文为官方语言或主要语言的文化和传统(包括中国大陆、台湾、新加坡、香港、澳门、马来西亚和西藏),这使得该项目与一般的教育课堂有所区别。
