ABC Edmond中文学校目前开设中文班和双语班。
中文班采用暨南大学专门为海外教学设计编著的《中文》简体字教材。中文学习过程当中，不仅要培养学生在文字学习各个方面（听，说，读，写）的能力，对于中华文化的了解也可以促进学生对中文的理解，培养学习兴趣。参考了全美其他地区中文学校教材的使用情况，我们每学年完成一册课本的学习。同时，老师也增加口语对话，文化传统，和写作的内容，促进学生中文学习的全面发展。
中文班的学生大部分是来自大陆学生学者的子弟，也有来自台湾，马来西亚，越南等东南亚地区的华裔子女。
双语班专门为初学中文的学生设计，注重口语的日常生活用语的学习。
由于各种条件的限制，中文学校的教师资源非常紧张，老师是学生家长经过培训以后来担任的。我们希望有教学经验并且热心传播中华文化的各界人士参加到学校当中来。
