NBC 5 is shouting out that something good is happening in Plano ISD – two worlds colliding at Rice Middle School.

This week, the school had a unique opportunity to host 10 students from Japan, thanks to a special visit from a Toyota Motor Corporation delegation!

The parents of these students work for Toyota, which has a North American office in Plano.

The kids from Japan could dive into American school life and share some of their own culture, from Japanese art to school traditions and celebrations.

Rice Middle School ambassadors made sure they felt right at home.

The event wrapped up with a very Texan BBQ lunch by H-E-B, Toyota USA, and the Plano ISD Education Foundation.
