Students had options of taking a number of the 20-plus mini courses that ranged from martial arts to basket making, The activity culminated the school’s study of the Japanese and Asian cultures. Mini courses were taught by community members, school staff and students from Forest Lake High School. Earlier this year, Carol Kuschke, an English as a Second Language teacher at the school, spent three weeks in Japan as part of the Fulbright Scholarship program. (Photo By Cliff Buchan)
