Confucius Classroom at Berkeley High School - Inauguration Ceremony on 
Friday October 23, 2015

Berkeley High teacher Xin Chin has been developing a 
strong Mandarin language program at BHS for the past decade, and has 
taken the program to a new level with a new partnership with the 
Confucius Institute at S.F. State University 
<http://www.sfsu.edu/%7Eci/> and the Chinese Consulate. Together, they 
have brought the Confucius Classroom program to Berkeley High School.

The inauguration ceremony began with performances by Ms. 
Chen’s Mandarin Classes - songs & dances that expressed the extent of 
their comprehension of Mandarin Chinese. This was followed by comments 
from BHS administrators, the Confucius Institute and the Chinese 
Consulate General before the unveiling of a bronze plaque that will be 
mounted in the Confucius Classroom. Superintendent Evans and other 
guests joined the speakers for the unveiling ceremony, and the lunch 
reception that followed for the 360 students who attended the ceremony.

Enjoy photos and video of the ceremony.
