Hi! My name is Rob Lech and I currently serve as the Superintendent of Schools for the Beulah Public School District in Beulah, ND.
In October I will be departing on a Japan Fulbright Memorial Fund educator's scholarship to travel to Japan. While there I will be studying the educational system of Japan along with others from across the nation. We will be touring schools, exploring Japan, and experiencing the culture.
Our first stop will be in San Francisco for a briefing and introductions. We will then fly to Tokyo as a group. In Tokyo we will tour schools, meet teachers, administrators, and government officials. I will then travel to Minamisoma in the prefecture of Fukushima, visit more schools and stay with a host family.
I am very excited and feel very fortunate to be a part of this program. I will be keeping this blog so my family, friends, and as well as the staff and students of the Beulah Public Schools can share in this experience.
I would like to thank the Beulah Board of Education for allowing me to take three weeks out of the school year to take advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Hey Rob,
Just to say hi and hope you had a great flight. Waiting to hear from you. Char
What is the "Fullbright" program designed to do and why were you chosen to go? What are the other people with you like? Are they superintendents like yourself?
