大分中學·高等學校, Combined junior and senior high school in Oita, Japan
The combined school in Akeno Takao serves around 1,200 students between the ages of 12 and 18, integrating lower and upper secondary education. The campus includes several buildings with science rooms, an athletics field, and workshops for technical subjects.
The school opened on May 1, 1952, to meet the growing demand for secondary education in Oita Prefecture after the war. Over the decades, it expanded its curriculum to include technical tracks that now focus on engineering and related fields.
The school maintains strong connections with the local community through regular student participation in regional clean-up activities and volunteer programs throughout the year.
Classes take place on weekdays, and access for outside visitors is limited to arranged appointments. Those interested in the educational programs can contact the administration office, which also provides guidance on enrollment procedures.
The automotive workshops allow hands-on practice with engines and other components, which students apply in real projects. This equipment makes the technical program a sought-after option in the region, working closely with local businesses.
