Japan Connection

Frederick Douglass High School during the past six years has been building a strong relationship with our sister school, Yamato Nishi High School, in Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan. This page is full of information concerning past interactions between the schools, memories we have shared, and future events.

Haiku Happenings from Japan

This summer Frederick Douglass High School returned to Japan for our annual visit to our sister school, Yamato Nishi High School in Kanagawa. As part of the trip each evening we had a seminar for reflections on the day. Each seminar closed with a haiku. Please visit our Haiku Happenings page to read these spectacular haikus.
