In the fall of 2003, CLASS conducted a general survey to provide an overview
of the current status of Chinese programs in secondary and elementary
schools in the United States.
A total number of 202 copies of survey questionnaires were sent out in September 2003. From this total, 163 surveys were returned, representing a remarkable return rate of 80%. Subsequently, a textbook survey was undertaken in February 2004. That survey had a 100% return rate. CLASS would like to express its great appreciation to all CLASS teachers for their continuing support of the Chinese teaching profession.
