長野縣飯田高等學校, Highschool in Japan
Iida High School (長野縣飯田高等學校) is a public high school in Iida, Nagano Prefecture, offering both science and general education programs. The campus includes classrooms, a library, and sports facilities spread across the school grounds.
The school was founded in 1882 as a district junior high school and went through several changes over the following decades. After World War II, it was reorganized as a high school under Japan's postwar education reform.
The school holds an annual festival called the Takamatsu Festival, where students and teachers organize activities together over several days. Bonfires and fireworks are part of the event, making it a notable moment in the school year.
The school is located within the urban area of Iida and can be reached by public transport. As it is an active educational institution, access to the campus is generally not open to the public.
The school has a rugby team that has taken part in national tournaments on several occasions, which is unusual for a school in a smaller city. Among its former students are an Olympic race walker and several writers who found success in their careers.
