We offer several ways to learn about our school.

  • Our Information Sessions are brief introductions to our school’s philosophy, teaching methods, and admissions process, with time for questions from parents and students. Offered in English with live Japanese translation.

  • Video Meeting: Prospective families are welcome to contact our Director of Admissions, David Kenney (email here), to set up a casual video meeting to get to know the school better. These meetings are typically conducted in English, however a Japanese translator can be arranged.

  • In-Person Visit: We are always happy to arrange a campus tour for families able to travel to Hakuba. Please contact Director of Admissions David Kenney (email here) to arrange a convenient time.
