 Washington Yu Ying PCS takes its name — meaning nurturing
excellence — from a groundbreaking girls school founded in 1911 in Beijing,
China. Established by a former Imperial Lady-in-Waiting, Madame Tzen-Kuei Wang,
the Yu Ying School offered classroom education at a time when the centuries-old
tutorial system was still the norm in China. The school was a powerful force
for educational change in China.
In providing Chinese language immersion in a structured inquiry
environment, the founders of Washington Yu Ying PCS have a no less
ambitious goal today. As parents and educators with a passion for
quality
public education and Chinese language and culture, we established Yu
Ying on
the belief that all DC children have the right to a world class
education that
opens doors to the future.
