Approximately 10,000 New Students Enroll Nationwide! N High School Group to Live Stream 'AI Entrance Ceremony' Online on Sunday, April 5th at 5:00 PM

The Kadokawa Dwango Educational Foundation's N High School, S High School, R High School (collectively, the N High School Group), and N Junior High School will hold the 'FY2026 N High School, S High School, R High School, and N Junior High School AI Entrance Ceremony: The First Piece to Creating the Future' on Sunday, April 5, 2026, starting at 5:00 PM. In the new academic year, approximately 10,000 new students from across the country will enroll in the N High School Group and N Junior High School to begin their new learning journey. To celebrate this milestone, we will provide a live-streamed entrance ceremony unique to the N High School Group, allowing students and their guardians to participate online from anywhere in Japan, tailored to their own environments.

According to the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology's 'FY2025 School Basic Survey,' the number of students in correspondence high schools has exceeded 305,000, reaching a record high, with approximately one in ten high school students now enrolled in correspondence schools.

Personalized Principal's Address Generation By inputting what you have worked hard on so far and what you want to challenge yourself with in the future, AI will automatically generate a 'personalized principal's address' customized for each student. The generated address will be read aloud by Principal Hirokazu Okudaira (N High School/R High School) using voice and video synthesis, allowing students to receive a special, personal message of encouragement.

2. Recommended Content Introduction By answering about 15 questions, your personality will be diagnosed into one of 16 patterns. Based on the results, recommendations for extracurricular classes, +ONE classes, learning styles, and tips for maintaining motivation will be provided. Even for new students who 'haven't found what they want to do yet,' this helps them find their path from the very first day of school...
