Camps in China

Students enrolled in middle & high schools in the U.S. interested in experiencing China through the lens of a native Chinese student should participate in a cultural and language camp in the spring.  The experience is optimal for those who are studying Mandarin Chinese; prior to the excursion, local U.S. students learn about the places they will visit in China, & create friendships with students in BCC’s partner schools.
