[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Japanese is the one of the least accessible languages in Washington DC. There are no language immersion programs east of the Anacostia River. I would love to see this happen.
Give me your opinions.[/quote]

I thought the original posting was a joke, are people really serious about this? OP please respond. [/quote]

OP here....My original posting is not a joke. I do appreciate all of the constructive feedback. I am a life long resident (DC born and bred). Since I was a child, I always wanted to learn another language outside of the given choices of Spanish, French, Latin. I want the same thing for my kids. Since I became a parent, I always wanted to see DCPS expand its language choice to better reflect the fact that DC is a world capital.  [/quote]

Thanks for weighing in again OP.  Now that you've been clear and put out there your interest in such a school, the next obvious (and frankly most important) question is: are you willing to take steps to initiate actually forming this school?  You've gotten feedback on the idea, and it sounds like you are still interested in your idea.  But every single current successful charter started with one or a few parents such as yourself saying "This is needed" or "This is what *I* want/would want for my kids" and they got to discussing and planning.  Are you willing to work to make a Japanese charter in DC happen?[/quote]
