Izumo High School has a botanical garden called Kyucho-en on its grounds.
Its name is sung at the beginning of our school song, evoking a high school life nurtured in a rich natural environment. It is a place for students to relax and enjoy the changing faces of the four seasons.
Many graduates may recall it as a fond memory of their high school days.
