Rikkyo Ikebukuro Junior and Senior High School
Rikkyo Ikebukuro Junior and Senior High School (立教池袋中学校・高等学校) is private boys' junior and senior high school in Ikebukuro, Toshima, Tokyo.
History
Bishop Channing Moore Williams established Rikkyo Junior High School in Tsukiji, Tokyo in 1896. The original building was destroyed by the Great Kantō earthquake, so a new building in Ikebukuro opened in 1923. The school was re-established in the post-World War II period in 1948.
The school was renamed Rikkyo Ikebukuro Junior High School in 2000, and in the same year its senior high school division was established.[1]
