I am currently considering an elementary school for my child.

I learned from the City of Gardena website that Amestoy Elementary School （ Magnet ） in Gardena offers Japanese, Spanish and English.

The elementary school in WLA where Japanese is taught is well known, but
I have never heard of an elementary school in Gardena where Japanese can be studied.

What about this elementary school ？
Please let me know if you have any information.
Thank you very much.

What are you going to do by having them learn Japanese here ？ I understand if they are going back to Japan in a few years, but if they live here
after all, when they grow up, they will be weird people who can neither write Japanese nor read Japanese newspapers
They look Japanese, they can speak Japanese and have conversations, but if they can't read and write, they won't be Japanese. He looks Japanese, he can speak Japanese, he can have a conversation, but if he can't read and write, he won't be a Japanese.

I agree with Dragon.
It may or may not be parental ego. Most of the English/Japanese bilinguals around me say, "It was hard when I was a kid, but now I appreciate it." Most of them say, "I had a hard time when I was a child, but now I appreciate it.
As someone who struggles with languages, I envy children of parents like you.
(My father was fluent in English, but he never taught me, nor did he have the environment to do so. )
I am an adult and only work on my own ！.
That's just the way it is... LOL

I hope someone comes forward with information.
Sorry for the topicality.

As a practical matter, bilinguals have an advantage when looking for work.

With Japan's national strength declining worldwide, being able to speak Japanese in the U.S. nowadays is of no benefit, nor is it a way to get a good job and earn money.
If you are able to speak Japanese, you will be reduced to a mere interpreter of convenience instead of a job that takes advantage of your abilities and skills.

It would be better for the children to spend the time they are forced to learn Japanese by their parents' egos on what they are interested in and what they are good at.
