Seattle Chinese School (SCS) was founded in 1966. At the time, it was under the organization of the Seattle Chinese Women’s Club. The SCS trade name was registered with the Washington State Government in 1974. It was the earliest Chinese school established in the Seattle metropolitan area.
The Seattle Chinese School SCS is a self-supporting, non-profit organization. Its purpose is to enhance the education of the Chinese language and culture for overseas Chinese. The SCS has no political or religious affiliations. Through its years of existence, the SCS’ primary goal has been to raise the awareness of overseas Chinese of their own ancestral roots. The volunteer school administrators and teachers have always strived to plant the seeds of the Chinese culture in our hearts by offering quality Chinese education.
The Seattle Chinese School SCS organizational chart has gone through several changes since its inception. Currently, the Seattle Chinese School SCS consists of a Board of Directors (seven members), an Advisory Committee (comprised of a team of community leaders), the school administration staff (the school Principal, two Assistant-Principals, Deans of: Curriculum, Faculty, Extra-curricular Activities, Information System, Registration, Operations, Finance, Library, Folk Arts and Craft ) and the Parent Teacher Association. The school operates smoothly with the dedicated efforts of all its volunteers. All the administrative staff members are parent-volunteer who received no monetary compensation. All teachers are hired by the Seattle Chinese School SCS with minimum part-time pay.
