**************************************************************************
YSCP Charter School is a unique, proactive alternative to traditional public education which provides an ideal “international” environment for the intellectual and social development of its students.
YSCPCS focuses on two student constituencies: those whose native language is not American English, during their transition into the American educational system and culture, and those native speakers of American English who wish to engage a curriculum which fosters a global perspective and promotes appreciation and understanding of world regions, cultures, and global issues.
Through an innovative language immersion program, which relies heavily on a rigorous academic curriculum for mastery of core knowledge and skills, YSCPCS seeks to develop students (initially, K-5) who are conversant in at least two major world languages (in addition to English), who understand the interdependence of the world’s peoples, and who attain proficiency not only in basic academic subjects, but also in knowledge of other countries, their people, and their roles in influencing world history and present international issues.
