English and Chinese languages as well as Eastern and Western
cultures so that students have an understanding and appreciation of

cultural diversity and the beliefs and values of all people, and a
sense of commitment and social responsibility.
YCIS Silicon Valley`s well-rounded academic program offers
students opportunities to find their passions and explore their
interests within the context of a challenging curriculum and a
safe, nurturing learning environment that meets the development
needs of young children.
Courses offered in Grades K-8 include violin, music, art,
physical education and character education along with core
subjects: Chinese Studies, English Language Arts, Science, Math and
Social Studies.
We believe that learning should be joyful, active and
meaningful. Students embark on a journey to grow their sense of
identity, build strong foundations of skills they will need
throughout life, and learn how to be caring and compassionate
citizens.
Students have many opportunities to gain confidence in
presenting and performing.
