There are two schools in the Zama school system: Arnn Elementary, and Zama Middle School and Zama American High School,which are combined. If you have children in grades K-6, they will attend Arnn Elementary School, located in the Sagamihara Family Housing Area, about three miles from Camp Zama. The school is fully accredited by the North Central Association. The school building was constructed in 1982, incorporating state of the art features found in the best elementary schools. The elementary school complex surrounds a court yard which features a beautiful Japanese Garden, making this a unique facility for the education of American youngsters. Special programs are available in reading improvement, English as a second language, art, music, and Japanese culture. The enrollment at Arnn Elementary School is approximately 610 students.

The present enrollment at Zama Junior and Senior High School is approximately 525 students in grades 7 through 12. These students come from Camp Zama, Sagamihara Housing Area, Sagami Depot, Atsugi Naval Air Facility and surrounding off-base locations.

Concern and effort are made to individualize instruction as much as possible. The development of positive self concepts and a feeling of worth are emphasized. Our graduation requirements are typical of those in stateside schools.
