Description
Wah Mei School was the first Chinese American bilingual preschool to be established in San Francisco. Since our first class in 1974, our program has successfully promoted multiculturalism in developmental activities that emphasize both learning and playing for our young students.
Each child's individual strengths and needs are recognized, valued and integrated into the program. Classes are conducted in both English and Chinese, so the children develop proficiency in both languages.Wah Mei School serves children ages 2 years 9 months to 5 years old. The school operates state-funded and private programs for both full-time and part-time students.
