Every year the emperor of Japan selects a theme for haiku poets. This year’s theme was "harusaki" which translates in English to " beginning of spring ".
Ibaraki, Minneapolis’s sister city in Japan, sponsors a haiku contest. Southwest High School was notified that they placed with eight winners in the citywide contest. That means we won all honors in the 9th grade -12th grade category again this year.
A presentation of awards will be held on Sunday, April 14th, 2013 from 2 p.m. at the Minneapolis Central Library downtown. Please congratulate these talented students when you see them!
