Gujo High School

Gujo High School was started in 1918 as a girls' school and is currently celebrating its' 87th year. It's primary purpose is to develop a school trusted by its community. The school saying is, "Enduring the Frost", which was loosely translated for us, which means " to fully utilize one's own unique qulities to accomplish one's goals." The high school has 4 strands of study:

1. regular - which is the hardest
2. general - which has a little more latitude
3. forestry science - boys only
4. food distribution

I found the students to be serious about their work, very friendly, and happy to share their usage of English. All students wear uniforms, and the majority of students plan to go on to private or national universities in Japan.
