About Friends of MIP
The Friends of Mandarin Immersion Program (MIP) of the Capistrano Unified School District has been a part of the South Orange County community for over nine years. In this time, MIP has expanded from K-5 classes at Marian Bergeson Elementary to a full program that continues on to Newhart Middle School and culminates at Capistrano Valley High School. Students in MIP have come from all over Orange County to be a part of our internationally recognized program, including the cities of Irvine, San Juan Capistrano, Mission Viejo, Aliso Viejo, Laguna Niguel, and San Clemente. MIP offers students a unique opportunity to learn the Mandarin language and become competent and competitive candidates in an increasingly global workforce and world.
Friends of MIP is the 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that provides funding, outreach, and support to further our students’ development of communication and literacy skills in both Mandarin and English, to strengthen the learning experience within the classroom, and to foster multicultural appreciation and understanding. We wouldn’t be able to support our students on their educational journey without local sponsors like Sean Dezahd with Keller William, Vertical Advisors, LLP, or Seaview Pediatrics.
