Admissions
HCCS is enrolling now for Fall 2012. We are offering Kindergarten through first grade for the 2012/2013 school year, and will add a grade each subsequent year. As our open enrollment period has now closed, applications are now being accepted on a first come, first served basis. Both in and out of district residents are welcome to apply.

Full Day Kindergarten Program
HCCS offers a full-day program only for Kindergarten. In Oregon, full day Kindergarten is not fully funded by the state and requires a tuition payment. HCCS Kindergarten tuition for the 2012/2013 school year will be $4,950. A limited number of scholarships are available for families who qualify for financial aid. As per the Beaverton School District requirements, incoming Kindergartners must be 5-years-old by September 1, 2012. Students entering the program at Kindergarten do not require any previous Chinese language skills.
First Grade Program
Children entering at first grade will be immersed in Mandarin Chinese for Math, Science, Social Studies, and Chinese language arts and culture. For more information or to speak with a staff member about our Chinese immersion learning environment, please contact our office.
Out of District Residents
Students living outside of the Beaverton School District are welcome and encouraged to apply. By law, HCCS must offer priority first to Beaverton School District students and siblings of students already attending if a lottery is required.
