Yinghua Academy is the only full immersion Mandarin Chinese K-8 school in Minneapolis, Minnesota. It opened in 2006 as the first public charter Chinese immersion school in the U.S. and the first Chinese immersion school in the Midwest. Yinghua continues to be a national leader, offering an international perspective and outstanding results.
Yinghua will be hosting a kindergarten information session for prospective parents from 6:30-8 p.m. on Tuesday, November 29, in person in the Yinghua cafeteria. No registration is required. Yinghua administrators and staff will be providing an informative overview of Yinghua Academy.
We hope you can join us to learn more about Yinghua’s unique learning environment!

News flash! We have a rare occurrence and, as a result, a rare opportunity for interested families! Yinghua currently has a limited number of open kindergarten spots for the upcoming 2022-23 school year. Current families know firsthand the value of a Yinghua education. The school has flourished because of dedicated school leaders, high-caliber teachers, energetic students, and supportive families.
Families that would like to apply should email Yinghua’s Registrar, Renee Cosgrove, renee.cosgrove@yinghuaacademy.
