Studying a foreign language in grade school is so important for the intellectual development and of a child growing up in an increasingly globalized and connected world.

I hope FLES program will continue. It is important for the students in that region to have a chance to learn Japanese.

This is a world-class program that must stay. Our children and the school benefits greatly from this type of valuable exposure to foreign language, culture and more. Please look more closely at the budget and preserve this essential program!

Japan is a critical partner and in order to retain this relationship we need people that can communicate.
