We are so pleased to share our new WVCA commercial. Special thanks to Jordi Ortega and the wonderful cast and crew who put this together. Thank you so much, everyone, for your hard work to put this together!
Please share this with your family and friends!

A note from our commercial director, Jordi Ortega:

When I learned that many parents struggle to convince their kids to go to Chinese school… “every Sunday!” I knew we had found an authentic story with the potential to alleviate a problem.

This project was a labor of love, just like the reason why responsible parents make education a priority for their children.
It took a village (in our case, the fabulous community of the West Valley Chinese Academy) to shoot this commercial.
Thank you to all, and in particular to the below cast & crew
“…because we love you.”

When West Valley Chinese Academy was looking to design a school t-shirt, we turned to our students and teachers for help.

We are pleased to announce that the winning t-shirt submission has been selected — “Super Reading Panda” by Scarlett and Alice Yan.

        

We were so incredibly impressed by the creativity shown in all the submissions and would like to take a minute to share those designs with our community.

This was WVCA’s first t-shirt design contest — and we received 12 submissions. Thank you so much to everyone who participated!

West Valley Chinese Academy (WVCA) has been providing first-class Chinese language education in the San Fernando Valley area for 18 years. Our school distinguishes itself from other language schools for its small-class sizes, experienced teachers, cultural activities, dedicated volunteers, and our remarkable students and families.

This year, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, our school had to cancel all in-person class sessions. In a very short amount of time, we were able to seamlessly transition all classes online in order to provide uninterrupted-learning experiences for our students. We express our gratitude to our amazing WVCA teachers and administrators for making this happen.

The 2020-21 school year began August 23, 2020 in a distance-learning format. We plan to follow Los Angeles Unified School District and Los Angeles Department of Public Health guidelines to decide when in-person classes can resume. We will evaluate the situation and make decisions that best protect the health of our families and teachers.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at (818) 381-9822, or by email at wvca@wvchineseacademy.org.
