The Richmond Chinese School is a nonprofit organization dedicated to educating the central Virginia community in Chinese language and culture.

Welcome To The Richmond Chinese School
The Richmond Chinese School originated in the fall of 1973 from a modest class of seven students in Mrs. Judith Chu’s home. In February 1976, the school was officially established in the classrooms at St. Michael’s School. The twenty-eight students and four teachers adopted textbooks used in Taiwan to learn reading, writing, and speaking in Chinese. In addition to language classes, they also learned Chinese cultures such as Chinese traditional songs and dance.
Why Choose Us?
For the past forty years, the Richmond Chinese School has had an enormous impact on both the Chinese and non-Chinese communities in central Virginia for promoting diversity and educating those who were interested in learning the Chinese language and culture. The success of the school was made possible because of the dedication of those who served as board members, principals, teachers, and volunteers. We are looking forward to another forty years of providing great services to our communities.
