関ケ原町立今須小中学校, Combined elementary and junior high school in Sekigahara, Japan
Sekigahara Imazu Combined Elementary and Junior High School is an educational facility where students progress through nine consecutive grades within a single institution. The building houses classrooms, laboratories, and activity spaces designed to serve both younger and older students together.
The school opened its doors in January 1985 during a period when Japanese educational authorities encouraged rural communities to merge elementary and junior high schools. This approach was meant to provide smaller towns with stronger educational resources.
Students participate in traditional Japanese school activities, including classroom cleaning duties and club activities that develop teamwork and responsibility.
The school operates on the Japanese academic calendar from April through March with weekday classes. As an active educational facility, visitor access may be limited during school hours and special events.
The school maintains strong connections with the local community while teaching about the historical Battle of Sekigahara that occurred in the surrounding region.
