Kanagawa International School puts its emphasis on the development of each student's individuality, while instilling a sense of responsibility for self and others and increasing sociability. As a result, students are able to establish their own identity and enhance their self-organization skills. Kanagawa International School's aim is to develop students into persons who have the capability to work in any community of the world by teaching them to respect differences of age, culture, ethnicity, nationality, race and religion. Inside the classroom, students are expected to speak in English; conversations in other languages will not be permitted, as English is the common language worldwide. Kanagawa International School's Readiness Program is a system designed to extend each student's abilities to the point where they are able to continue their education in an international school. Teachers are specially trained to guide the students in English conversations, reading and writing, arithmetic, comprehension skills, and information processing skills. Kanagawa International School tailors their teaching to individual students, and they've thoughtfully selected textbooks and materials.
