As the demand for Soroban Abacus education continuously grows in the U.S., so does the number of teaching institutions, franchises, and other unofficial ways of teaching and handling the Abacus.There was then a great need to put basic standards in place and guarantee that parents who want their children to learn the Abacus, will receive the proven and highest level of Soroban Abacus education.

Abacus teachers in North America – Aug 13, 2023
2023年8月、ロサンゼルス、サンノゼ、ポートランド、サンディエゴ、シアトルから参加し、年に1度集まる珠算競技大会に一生懸命取り組んでおりました。
北米各地でそろばんの腕を磨き、披露する年に1度の大会ですので、自分の腕試しとしても最高の舞台となります。 毎年5月頃に各教室で行われる、全米通信大会(各教室での実施)にも積極的に参加し、各生徒さんたちの腕試しをしつつ、常に目標を持ってそろばんを練習してもらう機会を提供しております。
アバカスカルガリーは全国珠算教育連盟アメリカ支部に所属しております。北米では独立法人の非営利団体となっております。
