January 29, 2023 Good Testimony from Yokohama Christian School parent

 January 29, 2023

Good Testimony from a parent of 

Yokohama Christian School.

One parent said that Yokohama Christian School is very fine school and teachers are so good and kind.

Listening to that Mr. D. Yang an expert in Yokohama business said that is the best testimony for business,

a client has a good remark.

I had a chance to meet the principal of the school and mentioned that. She was very happy about it.

I also mentioned that I won't be attending the board meeting on Saturday because I am attending Gyosei Internal Elementary School Nagareyama for their open campus  day.

She also knows I  am working on a presentation about "international schools in Japan".

I learned from my study that YMCA Osaka has a city government international school which Horizon was not able to take it and now they have it in Yokohama and Sendai. 

Tokyo YMCA international school is growing step by step and has a high school today.

My idea is that Yokohama has two descent international schools but we are far behind in the others.

It is like EV cars in the world. We must have a good international schools like that in Osaka.

Traditionally YMCA Osaka starts a project and Yokohama follows it. That was true about forty/fifty years ago with YMCA Yobikou ventures.  Now I think it is international schools.

I was against new international schools in Japan which I did lot of involvements but listening to SJC/SJIS alumni in HongKong, I feel they are gradually coming here and we have not enough international schools.

As we are Christian , the principal and I agreed that Yokohama YMCA and Yokohama Christian School should work together to help each other.

I shall ask people who are in the field to see what we can do together.
