Academics

The CCS-Alameda academic program is provided by Chinese Christian Schools (CCS), a 2003 National Blue Ribbon School of Excellence recognized by the United States Department of Education. CCS is fully accredited and students win numerous regional and national competitions every year.  Graduates enter the finest universities and receive numerous scholarships and awards. 

The strength of our school is our Academic Course of Study.

Our academic program emphasizes advanced studies in every discipline. By graduation, students will have the opportunity to take over 10 AP classes and explore a variety of subjects. Students will also have the opportunity to learn computer programming, robotics, and participate in a wide range of competitions.

A distinctive of our school is service learning and internships.

Math, Science, and history are not subjects that are learned by reading, but by doing.  Therefore, a large component of our program involves student participation in internships and practical study. Students will also develop a sense of civic responsibility by using their knowledge and skills to benefit the community.  These service learning opportunities teach students to be civic minded and to use their skills to help others. 

The scope of our studies is the world.

Every graduate will demonstrate proficiency in English and one other language. Foreign students will receive intensive training in the English language and the customs, practices, and culture of the United States. The goal is a student who is not only conversant in two languages, but proficient in two cultures and can comfortably bridge ethnicities.
