Sandy Union High School and Sosa Senior High School of Yokaichiba, Japan became sister schools in June, 1973. Three Sandy students and one teacher traveled to Yokai- chiba to attend school for three weeks and tour Central Japan for nine days. Yokaichiba, located about 45 miles due east of Tokyo and about two miles west of the Pacific Ocean, is in the prefecture of Chiba. A pre- fecture is comparable to a state in the United States. The town is in a farming community and has a popula- tion of 36, 944. Principal pro- ducts are rice and cereals. Sosa with a student enroll- ment of 1100 in three class levels, as compared to Sandy's lOOOinfour classes, was established in 1925. On the other hand Sandy opened its doors in the fall of 1914. Sosa is a strictly academic school with about 85% of its graduates enrolling in uni- versities. Students travel many miles to attend Sosa, coming by foot, bicycle, motorcycle, public bus and train. The school day runs from 8:15 a. m. to 3 p. m., five days a week and 8:15 to 1 p. m. on Saturdays. The school year comprises about 225 days total as compared to Sandy's 180. After classes, students clean the school rooms and halls and then attend clubs. Every students is required to join at least one club. Clubs available are soccer, tennis, baseball, kendo, archery, tea ceremony, volleyball, table tennis, gymnastics, flower arranging, English speaking, pen pals, art, astronomy, science, singing, brass band, amateur radio, basketball, judo and weather. These clubs have some simi- larities to the after-school activities of Sandy's students but naturally, there are many differences. In this introduc- tion we will show some of the differences. The pictures of the Japan- ese students used in the in- troduction were taken by Mr. Yoichi Inoue, English teach- er at Sosa Senior High School. Sonoko performs ancient tea ceremony.
