Okinawa AMICUS International is a private combined school in Uruma City, Okinawa, serving students from kindergarten through junior high school. The school opened in 2011 and is officially approved by Japan’s Ministry of Education (MEXT) as a “Special Zone for Education,” which allows it to design and deliver its own original curriculum. AMICUS provides English immersion education from kindergarten onward, teaching most subjects in English with Japanese language and parts of social studies taught separately. The campus is located in the central part of Okinawa’s main island, surrounded by natural scenery and approximately five minutes by car from the Okinawa Expressway’s Okinawa-Kita exit. Since 2020, the elementary and junior high school divisions have been members of Round Square, a global network of schools focused on experiential learning and international understanding.
