@Made up of 4 junior high and high schools, it is a private girls' school with about 650 students. International exchange is popular having put into effect study abroad every other year in Vienna and Berlin, and regularly with a school in London. The Brearley School has a strong interest in Asia. Having created elective courses in Japanese history and Chinese history, Japanese geography, language, religion, society and culture can be studied. From June of 1998 and in 1999, the Brearley School visited this school, and in December of 1999, this school went to New York to amkethe sister school relationship binding. Now we exchnage with each other every other year. At the Brearley School scholastic dilligence is important, and students study very hard. After graduation most students go to Yale University and Harvard University is second, thus when Narita Kokusai students visit in December most are suprised by the amount of studying Brearley students do.
@At the Brearley School, there was English conversation practice with the principal everyday, and meeting such a kind and gentle principal was fun for the students. Also, students interacted with kindergarten and elementary children and taught them Japanese culture and participated in classes with host students. School excursions included places such as the Empire State Building, Central Park and 5th Avenue, the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island, the Metropolitan Art Museum, the Natural History Museum, Harlem, Greenwich Village, Soho, Chinatown, and students were fortunate enough to have the experience of walking across the Brooklyn Bridge. We give heartfelt thanks for being able to have such a sister school relationship.
