Bilingual Childcare & Preschool
Rainbow Children’s Academy (彩虹双语幼儿园) is a Chinese-English bilingual early childhood education center founded in 2009 to serve the needs of families in the Eastside community.
RCA operates year-round, Monday through Friday, from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., including summer sessions. The school follows the Bellevue School District calendar, closing for a two-week winter break and a one-week spring break. We accept children from 12 months to 6 years of age, with enrollment based on the academic school year. Under special circumstances, RCA may accept children younger than 12 months. Three schedule options are available: a Part-Time Program (8:00 a.m.-12:30 p.m.), a Full-Day Program (8:00 a.m.–4:00 p.m.) and a Extended Day Program (8:00 a.m.–6:00 p.m.).
Every day at Rainbow Children’s Academy is a blessing, surrounded by joyful students and dedicated, talented staff.
