[quote=Anonymous]Fox Mill ES and Great Falls ES in Fairfax County have Japanese Immersion. Both have kids moving in from Japan who speak no English and join the class. They have other students and teachers who are fluent in Japanese who can help them. The other night I had one girl translating for another at a school dance. I know it is a bit of a commute but it an option. Both schools feed into MS and HS that offer Japanese and have kids who speak some Japanese, and a good number who are fluent because they use it at home with a parent or are from Japan like you are. Again, a bit of a commute but there established Japanese communities and language dpeakers. [/quote]
