Japanese students campus tour

February 15th, 2008

Alum Brett Rawson ‘03 is currently teaching English in Akita, Japan and he had a great idea to start a video exchange with Overlake’s Japanese students.

If you would like to see a 20 min Japanese introduction to The Overlake School check out the student’s video here.

Even if you don’t understand Japanese it’s fun to see the campus through their eyes.
