Jiyu Gakuen Junior and Senior High School
Nestled amidst the vibrant tapestry of Tokyo, Jiyu Gakuen Junior and Senior High School stands as a beacon of educational innovation and self-discovery. Founded in 1921, Jiyu Gakuen, meaning "School of Freedom," champions a unique vision where learning transcends textbooks and classrooms, blossoming into a lifelong pursuit of knowledge and personal growth.
Jiyu Gakuen Junior and Senior High School's curriculum steers clear of the traditional, rigid framework, opting for a dynamic, interdisciplinary approach. Instead of rote memorization and standardized tests, the focus lies on cultivating critical thinking, creativity, and a deep understanding of the world around us. Small class sizes ensure personalized attention, allowing teachers to tailor the learning experience to each student's strengths and interests.
At the dorms, students select their dorm leaders. Seniors in the third year oversee the dorms and take charge of managing daily life. Usually, 6 to 8 students share a room based on their school year. They work together to manage most aspects of daily life, like cooking, cleaning, and laundry. Dorm leaders and room supervisors ensure safety and health, fostering a disciplined yet supportive dorm life.
With its unique approach to education, vibrant activities, supportive boarding program, and inspiring facilities, Jiyu Gakuen Junior and Senior High School is a testament to the transformative power of learning, empowering its students to become the architects of their own futures.
