The Seattle Chinese School

From 889 The Bridge, this is a story about Mercer Island’s Betty Tonglao who served as principal of the Seattle Chinese School from 1981-1985 when it was located on the island. The school's new direction under Betty’s leadership focuses on oral language, immersing individuals through cultural activities, and engaging students to further their Chinese language skills.
