Keio Shiki Senior High School, Private high school in Shiki, Japan.
Keio Shiki Senior High School is a private high school in Shiki that includes extensive sports facilities on its grounds. The campus features a 300-meter (984-foot) track, soccer fields, hockey fields, volleyball courts, rugby fields, and tennis courts spread across the property.
The school was founded in 1948 as Keio Agricultural High School, originally training students for farming careers. It underwent significant transformation in 1957 when it became a regular high school while keeping its ties to Keio University.
Students from across the region attend this school, where they work together on science projects and community activities. This shared experience shapes how the campus feels as a place where learning happens through both classroom work and practical hands-on engagement.
Classes start at 8:30 AM with seven class periods each day, creating a structured learning schedule. Upper-level students can choose from more than 20 elective courses across different subjects to customize their class schedule.
The campus contains over 500 plant species and maintains small agricultural plots that bring nature into the learning environment. This connection to growing things traces back to the school's farming roots and makes the grounds feel more like a botanical space than a typical school property.
