Extended Day & Extracurricular Programs: Aftercare runs 3 PM–6 PM on preschool, TK, and elementary campuses, with children spending the majority of time in a play-based environment indoors and outdoors (weather permitting) under the supervision of Chinese-language teachers. Enrichment: Many students participate in after-school enrichment in both Mandarin and English; in early childhood, enrichment includes paper art, creative movement, yoga, soccer, and science. The Shu Ren Experience goes beyond the classroom with co-curricular programs and extended-day options that nurture the whole child, including arts and athletics, language and cultural enrichment.
Shu Ren International School is a private international school in the United States serving ages 2-11, offering a blended IB Primary Years Programme (PYP) and American curriculum. The program provides full Mandarin immersion for Early Childhood (ages 2-5) and Elementary (Kindergarten-Grade 5). It centers on the PYP's concept-based inquiry cycle, cultivating knowledge, skills, and dispositions for lifelong learning as students ask meaningful questions, make cross-subject connections, and apply learning to real-world contexts. Social-emotional development is embedded through the Responsive Classroom approach, Zones of Regulation, and PSPE, supporting wellbeing and global citizenship. Small class sizes and a close-knit community ensure every child is seen and supported. Aftercare runs 3:00-6:00 PM on preschool, TK, and elementary campuses, and enrichment is offered in both Mandarin and English. The Shu Ren Experience extends learning beyond the classroom with arts and athletics, language and cultural enrichment, and Mandarin-immersion Vacation Camps. Co-curricular programs broaden opportunities.
