At about 8:30 am on the morning of June 3rd, 42 Murasakino students got together in our Language Laboratory, with some 20 students from Blair waiting to begin the first session over the Pacific. This year's Video tele-conferencing started with an announcement by the two M.C. students from Murasakino. Five groups took turns interacting with their partner groups. They asked and answered questions regarding the sub topics assigned to them, and then the Murasakino groups gave various live performances such as introducing Kyoto culture using photos or dancing. The entire session lasted about one hour, with all the students excitedly particpating and sharing a sense of togetherness in a real time exchange with the students over the Pacific.

November this year, Murasakino is going to invite some students and teachers
from Blair High School in commemoration of 10th anniversary of the exchange
with Blair and Murasakino High Schools who created the project together.

Below is the message from Mr.Richard Miyagawa who has been working with
us for all the years." Blair students have collaborated with the students
and teachers at Murasakino High School for approximately 10 years.Working
together in "international cooperative learning groups" has changed
the traditional methods of student learning. The Blair - Murasakino collaboration
is a visionary model for other high schools who wish to prepare for and
participate in a true global community. "
