In response to the abrupt closure of the Chinese School, held in the White Church in Hanover, the Dartmouth Chinese Cultural Society will spearhead an effort to revive the school's programs. The new school, which hopes to help Chinese-American children connect with their roots, will offer a variety of classes from culturally-oriented activities such as Chinese chess, dance, yo-yo, brush painting and singing, to specific language courses which will acquaint the children with the Chinese language at a young age. These classes, which are aimed at children between the ages of five and 11, will be taught by Dartmouth students who have taken advanced Chinese courses at the College and who are preferably native speakers of the language. Though the school is still in the planning stages, a meeting for interested parents took place Monday with members of DCCS.
