It has permeated the high school as our educational goal of 'think for oneself, learn for oneself, and act for oneself'. We value the enthusiastic attitude of respecting the individuality of each student and finding and tackling challenges on their own.

Encounters with nature foster "harmony and humanity"

Our students walk to school with the sun shining through the trees, feeling the warmth of the earth, listening to the birds singing and enjoying the flowers of the four seasons.
