Thanks to the Chief Sealth International High School parent who shared the photo and report:
Students from Okinawa visited with Sealth Japanese-language students at High Point library. The program is called Kakehashi Project – a week-long exchange to boost understanding with American high school students. This program has been around for years and is funded by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Japan.
SIDE NOTE: CSIHS welcomes prospective students and their families – current 8th graders, in particular – to visit this Thursday night (November 9th), 6-7:30 pm.
