We did not recevie a year end written evaluation, but we did receive an in depth writtne mid-year evaluation. CCCC's lead teachers are great. They communicate on a regular basis about the kids and offer great understanding when the kids have difficulty in any area. English is the seond language for many of the chiildren attending this school, most speak Cantonese. There are Cantonese speaking teachers and Mandrian speaking teachers. Our daughter does not speak Chinese, but has been very happy at this school.
