XinXing Academy, Hopkins Public Schools' Chinese immersion program, opened at Eisenhower Elementary School in 2007. XinXing attracts students from all parts of the Hopkins School District, as well as from other school districts in the Twin Cities area through open enrollment.
We currently have two sections each of full-day kindergarten, grade 1 and grade 2, and we will continue to add a grade level every year through the 6th grade. We believe that having full-day kindergarten provides students with sufficient contact with the language to form the necessary base for success in 1st grade and beyond. Since it is a full immersion program, immersion classroom teachers use no English at all in the early years.
