明治學院中學校·明治學院東村山高等學校, 日本の東京都東村山市にある中高一貫校
Meiji Gakuin Junior and Senior High School in Higashimurayama is a campus with tidy buildings set across spacious grounds. The layout includes sports fields, cultivated gardens, and classrooms arranged to maximize natural light and open space.
The school was founded in 1963, building on a school established in 1863 by missionary J.C. Hepburn. The Higashimurayama campus was taken over from a former military school site during the 1950s.
The school is rooted in Christian teaching that shapes daily life on campus. Morning worship services bring students and teachers together each day, and many participate in church-related activities as part of their school experience.
The campus is located in a quiet area with good accessibility and can be reached easily by public transport. Plan to spend time walking the grounds to see the different facilities and spaces, especially if you want to visit the historic buildings.
The campus preserves the former residence of US ambassador Edwin L. Reischauer, which has been relocated to the grounds and now operates as a small museum. Students and visitors can learn about history through this building.
