Our mission at the Asian Studies Academy Dwight-Bellizzi is to provide our students with an intensive, comprehensive<br />
education focusing on Chinese Mandarin language and East Asian cultures.<br />
The Asian Studies Academy (ASA) at Dwight-Bellizzi is a Pre-Kindergarten to Grade 8 school. The school was redesigned<br />
around the school reform initiative of an all-choice system of schools to provide students with the option of studying<br />
Chinese Mandarin and East Asian cultures as they prepare for future college and career success.<br />
Special features:<br />
> ASA is the only public school in Connecticut offers Chinese Mandarin language study from Pre-Kindergarten to Grade 8.<br />
> Chinese sister school exchange program for students and teachers<br />
> Students participate in 3 cycles of self-selected enrichment, which reinforces differentiated teaching and meets the needs<br />
of the gifted and talented.<br />
Note: Pre-Kindergarten programs for 4-year-olds are partially funded through a School Readiness Grant, and involve a weekly fee, based<br />
on household income. To apply for your preschooler, complete an online Choice Application at www.hartfordschools.org.<br />
