Dear Yoko,

Thank you for your help in finding us a sister school in Japan. Our new school website is http://www.pennsbury.k12.pa.us/pennsbury/William%20…%20Middle/

I look forward to hearing from you again and working together in the future. If there is any way I can help you, please let me know.

Sincerely,

Abigail Brazina
Social Studies Teacher
William Penn Middle School
1524 Derbyshire Road
Yardley, PA 19067

Dear Abby,

Your points are my concerns too.

iEARN-Japan teachers do not often visit iEARN Collabolation Center, nor post
forums because of time shortage, but
I have been afraid of Japanese students getting behind of world standard,
poor communication skills, due to not be provided such places to meet friends
in the world and discuss things together.

I will discuss your points with my staff, and at the same time I will ask
iEARN-Japan school teachers to be your partner(s).

Is the following URL is correct to introduce your school ?

Yoko, iEARN-Japan
