History

In 1937, Yonekichi Koga opened the school in Yawata-aza-shinden, Ichikawa, Chiba. That was the beginning of Ichikawa Gakuen. The school had only male students since after the last war; however, the school became coeducational when the school moved to its present location in the spring of 2003.
The school has relationships with John McGlashan College in Dunedin, New Zealand, as well as others in Shanghai, China, the Philippines and Nanaimo, British Columbia, Canada.

Famous alumni

The school also manages three kindergartens in the Ichikawa area.
