Ichikawa Junior and Senior High School (市川中学校・高等学校,Ichikawa Gakuen) is a large (2500 students) private school in Moto-kita-kata (本北方),Ichikawa, Chiba,Japan. The school is sometimes mistaken for a public school due to its name:Ichikawa Junior High School,Ichikawa High School orIchikawa for short. The private school is managed by theIchikawa Gakuen School Corporation.
In 1937, Yonekichi Koga (古賀米吉Koga Yonekichi) opened the school in Yawata-aza-shinden (currently known as Higashi-sugano 4-chome), Ichikawa, Chiba. That was the beginning of Ichikawa Gakuen.
