Hejia Private Education Alliance was established by Mr. Tang Shengchang, the former principal of Shanghai Middle School, and the education management team led by him, and Principal Tang served as the chairman of the alliance. Star River Bilingual School is the international curriculum base of Hejia, as a "middle school" school, Star River Bilingual School was founded by Principal Tang, and has received the support of the International Department of Shanghai High School in management, which is not difficult to explain why Star River Bilingual School has become one of the "most difficult private schools" in Shanghai after only 5 years of existence.

Star River Bilingual School offers an international curriculum from Grades 1 to 12. The most distinctive feature of the school is that it adopts a teaching mode with full coverage of bilingual and dual textbooks in the junior primary school stage, one set of textbooks compiled by Shanghai and the other set of textbooks in California, so that the content of education and teaching can be covered in the compulsory education stage, and students can meet the basic requirements of ordinary primary and junior high schools in China.

Star River adopts the standard of English as the mother tongue of instruction, and from Year 1 onwards, 75% of students are taught in English. In grades 1-3, Star River adopts a package class model, that is, a class is led by a Chinese teacher and an American teacher, with Chinese teachers using Chinese and English and American teachers using English, so that students' English skills can improve rapidly within three years without affecting the development of Chinese skills. From Year 4 onwards, the class system makes it possible to teach in different classes and is also conducive to building students' sense of self-management. At the high school level, Star River adopts the American AP system, which also reflects that Star River is indeed an international school specializing in the United States, which is worth a time-consuming investigation for families who aim for the United States.

Relying on the strong faculty of the "Upper and Middle School Department", Star River is also very outstanding in this regard. The teacher allocation implements the system of "old with new", including senior teachers from Huayu and Zhangjiang, as well as newcomers who have just graduated from East China Normal University, and the average level of teachers is very high. However, it is precisely because they come from the "upper middle school department" that many students think that the school is too "chicken blood" and the academic pressure is too great, especially in the junior and primary school stage, both inside and outside the system, and the task is heavy, not all students can bear it.

As of 2018, Star River has only produced two cohorts of graduates, but the admission results of both cohorts have been very gratifying. In 2018, nearly half of Star River's 93 graduates received offers from at least one of the top 30 universities in the United States, and 100% received offers from the top 60 universities in the United States, including the University of Chicago, the University of Oxford, Northwestern University, Vanderbilt University, Emory University, the University of California, Berkeley, the University of California, Los Angeles, the University of Southern California, Carnegie Mellon University, etc. In addition, all the high school graduates of the two classes of Star River took four high school academic proficiency exams, and all of them passed and obtained general high school diplomas.
