On Friday, May 23, 2025, as part of the Organization for International Collaboration’s  "Japanese Language and Culture S" course, 13 international exchange students at Shizuoka Campus visited Shizuoka Prefectural Shizuoka Johoku High School and participated in their cultural exchange programs.

To start, the international students changed into the Shizuoka Johoku High School uniforms. They then created posters comparing school systems in Japan and their home countries, took part in a quiz competition, and joined small group exchanges. They also experienced cleaning times and observed club activities, gaining valuable insight into Japanese high school life.

Feedback from participating international students included comments such as:
"For us, it was one of my best experiences in so far!"
“My favorite moment on our last week's visit, was wearing JK uniform! Growing up watching Japanese drama and idle, I've been dreaming to wear Japanese high school uniform. Thank you for the experience!" "Thank you for being so kind to allow us to visit your school and learn more about Japanese education/schooling more. I really enjoyed my visit and getting to speak with the students in my group. They were very friendly and quite funny."
