MANDARIN PROGRAM
Welcome to the Albina Mandarin Program!
Since its inception in 2012, the Mandarin program at Albina Head Start has expanded from 3 classrooms to 9. We have also created a pathway for students to continue their Mandarin education at Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Elementary School and through high school, providing them with greater opportunities and possibilities for the future.

Our program offers 30 minutes of daily Mandarin instruction, incorporating methods like singing, dancing, movement, art activities, and games. This approach allows children to learn another language while having fun.
Additionally, our Mandarin teachers will provide links to resources for learning Mandarin at home.
Let's embark on this exciting journey of learning Mandarin together!
