Consul General of Japan Visits Southwest Students




Consul General of Japan Yoshida, his wife, The Consul Inagaki and the Consul located in Minneapolis, Ms. Hanson visited with Mrs. French Japanese students and their parents.

This group of students traveled to Japan this past summer as part of a cultural exchange sponsored by the government of Japan and the Japan Foundation.  The Kakehashi presentation was given before the staff earlier this year and repeated for the Consul General.

Students asked question and Consul General Yoshida responded with helpful hints and offered to assist as students moved toward graduation.  He noted this was the first stop on his high school tour and heard so much about the school.  He noted that this was his wife's first visit to an American school.
