Since the publication of my article about the Okayama Korean Primary and Middle School (Community, May 22), I have had several people ask me questions about the attitudes, opinions and beliefs of the people involved with the school.
While I am glad to talk about my observations and experiences, I felt unqualified to speak on others' behalf. Taking advantage of the interest created by the last article, I asked parents, teachers and students at the school the questions that others have asked me. I hope their answers can provide greater insight into the reasons why they continue to attend and maintain the school. Requests for anonymity have been honored.
Why do you have Korean schools? What is their purpose?
