Our students need exposure to books outside of school to read well in Chinese but our school and community libraries have very few books in Chinese. In fact, we estimate there is only about 1 book in Chinese for every 5 MIP students at our schools.
There is no school budget set aside especially for Chinese books for our library; our current collection has all been donated
We are committed to improving the ration of Chinese books to students. A portion of all membership proceeds will be used to purchase books for the library and will organize book fairs and book drives to make more language books available for our students.
