Japanese ambassador tastes American education in visit to St. Paul's, Baltimore

Jon Meoli:

For many students who take a foreign language, the highest authority they have to answer to is their teacher.

But for some of the 220 students who study Japanese at St. Paul's School in Brooklandville, Monday offered an opportunity to show their skills for an expert guest: Japan's ambassador to the United States

Japanese Ambassador Ichiro Fujisaki and his wife, Yoriko, were accompanied by Takahisa Murakami, Counselor of Education for the Japanese Embassy, and Takayuki Iriya, Fujisaki's first secretary, to sample Japanese educational offerings at St. Paul's School in Brooklandville.
