Chuo-ku specially recognized school system

Joto, Kyobashi Tsukiji, Yasuaki, Tokiwa, and Sakamoto Elementary School are designated as specially recognized schools as school areas with few children living.

In Chuo-ku, I go to school in the school district. In a specially-approved school, if there is enough capacity, it is a system that allows you to go to school from other school areas if you wish. If there are many applicants, it will be a lottery. School buses are available free of charge from the Tsukishima area.

Because it is located in a high-rise building on the 45th floor, a joint disaster drill with Tokyo Midtown Yaesu was also held. Assuming that a fire broke out in a shopping mall, he evacuated to the suburbs according to the instructions of the emergency broadcast.

Specially recognized schools have a high rate of lottery, with seven classes in 2023, but one class increase in 2024 to eight classes. In 2028, there will be 12 classes, which will be the capacity Max.
