Our Mission
The Mission of Tampa Bay Chinese School is to provide educational services in addition to striving for cultural exchanges between the Chinese community and other ethnic groups, while preserving the essence of Chinese culture overseas, in order to create a better future for our own.
School History
Established in 1997, TBCS (the previous USF Chinese School ) has grown to a size of 22 different classes today, with over 250 students aging from 3 to 16. All textbooks used in school are written and published by the Office of Oversea Chinese in Mainland China. There are 14-18 teachers in the school; all of them have years of experience in teaching Chinese. A variety of indoor and outdoor activities organized in the school makes Chinese study more interesting and effective. We welcome more local Chinese families as well as Americian families who are interested in learning Chinese to join in our school. We are looking forward to working with other local Chinese communities in Tampa Bay area.
