SMIC CHINESE CONCENTRATION CLASS (CCC) PROGRAM
The Chinese Concentration Class (CCC) program was introduced to SMIC-I Elementary School in 2011, and has become a popular program for prospective SMIC-I parents. This is a three-year program specially designed at the elementary level to provide the essence of both Western and Eastern educations, and build a solid foundation in English, Chinese and Math computational skills.

English Language Arts, Social Studies, Science, Music, Arts and Computer classes follow well-established American curriculum. The Chinese Language curriculum is enhanced with four additional periods of classical reading and composition practice. The Math class follows the local curriculum, in which computational skills are emphasized.

This strenuous program requires students to have complete mastery of both languages to be successful. Potential students are required to pass both English and Chinese exams. Students who achieve higher scores will be accepted first. Students in the program are required to stay for at least one school year. They cannot drop out of the program and switch to the regular class in the middle of the school year. Switching will depend on the availability of vacancy in the other program.

The program and students are closely monitored to ensure maximum learning outcome. The homework load is approximately 2 hours a night. Parents need to take this seriously into consideration before the enrollment, and assist their children on time management once in the program.

中文加强班（CCC）课程于2011年引入小学，现已成为热门课程。课程为期三年，开设在小学阶段，提供东西方教育的精髓，并在英语、中文和数学计算方面打下坚实基础。

英语语言艺术、社会研究、科学、音乐、艺术和计算机课程遵循完善的美国课程体系；中文课程增加了四个时段的古典阅读和作文练习；数学课遵循当地课程，加强计算技能。

这门课程要求学生完全掌握两种语言。有意向的学生必须同时通过中英文考试，择优录取。申请CCC的学生必须至少完成一学年的学习，不能在学年中途退出课程转入常规班级，CCC班的作业量约为每晚 2 小时，家长在入学前需认真考虑，一旦进入该班学习需在时间管理、课业等方面协助孩子。

All students are required to enroll in the lunch plan and eat in the school cafeteria. Special arrangements may be made for students with religious or special needs due to medical conditions, if proper documentation is provided in advance.

一般情况下，所有学生都应在学校食堂用餐。如果事先提供证明文件，可以为宗教相关或特殊需求的学生做特殊安排。
