The Characteristics of a Flex-School

Flex-School was established in 2005.　A "Flex-School" means a three-time school, with morning, afternoon, and night courses, as well as a high school on a credit system.

　 Kashimanada High School started as three-time school and credit-system school in April， 2005.　 We set up three courses, i.e. morning, afternoon, and night courses, so you can choose any of the three courses suited to your lifestyle.　We call this system a Flex-School.
