Bergen Chinese school was established in 1972 by a group of Chinese Americans to promote Chinese language and culture. Over the years, BCS has grown into a vibrant and diverse community, uniting families representing many different ethnic backgrounds in our common interest in Chinese language and culture.
After having been located in Hackensack Middle School in Hackensack, NJ, for 18 years, BCS now calls Tenafly High School in Tenafly, NJ, home.
BCS provides a variety of classes for students to learn the basic Chinese language including understanding, speaking, reading and writing the Chinese characters. Students also explore Chinese culture through rhythm and rhyme, poetry, songs, crafts, chess, calligraphy, painting, etc.
