History
History
Asaka High School was a boys' school for a long time, but has recently become coeducational. Simultaneously, it abolished its rule mandating school uniforms. The old building, which had been formerly used as the main building of former Fukushima ordinary junior high school Fukushima-ken Jinjo Chugakko, is conserved in the front of its site, as the Asaka history museum. It was designated a cultural heritage site in 1977. The museum was deemed unsafe to enter after the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami. Asaka High School has promoted the themes "Frontier Spirit", "Literary and Military arts", and "Spartan". It has a rivalry with Fukushima High School and Iwaki High School.
