High School Entrance Tests?

Unlike American high schoolers, teenagers in Japan may have a good amount of choice for deciding their high school if their test scores are good enough.

High schools in Japan are almost like colleges in America because the students take tests to determine which schools will be offered them.

Since student selection is determined by scores and not open enrollment, high schools often compete for the best students. On the left is the cover of a pamphlet I designed for Kita High School which lists what the school offers both academic and non-academic programs.

The school I teach at is quite diverse and is known for its academics, sports and clubs.
