The Pioneer Valley Chinese Immersion Charter School (simplified Chinese: 先锋中英双语学校; pinyin: Xiān Fēng Zhōng Yīng Shuāng Yǔ Xué Xiào), abbreviated to PVCICS, is a public Charter school in Hadley, Massachusetts. Founded in February of 2007, PVCICS offers an immersion program that teaches Chinese Language Arts and culture in addition to a regular curriculum.[1]

PVCICS prepares Kindergarten through 12th grade students for academic and personal success through rigorous study and instruction aligned with the state and federal government standards, augmented with Chinese language and culture. PVCICS' goals are to graduate students with excellent scholarship, high proficiency in Mandarin Chinese and English, plus sensitivity to multiple cultures. PVCICS serves the Pioneer Valley region.[2]

IB Curriculum

PVCICS was recently approved to become an International Baccalaureate school, and adopted the IB program for 11th and 12th graders in January of 2015. [3]
