Middle School Handbook

Welcome

Welcome to the Christian Academy in Japan, better known to its friends as "CAJ." You have become a member of a community of scholars in which we all contribute to each other's growth spiritually, academically, and socially. As individuals and as a community we are called to show the world that there is a different and rewarding way of life for those who have decided to follow Jesus Christ.

This handbook is intended to be a helpful introduction to our life together in this community. It describes who we are and what we can expect from each other as we live and work together. Reading through this handbook and accessing it for reference will answer many of your questions and help you feel at home more quickly.

CAJ reserves the right to change or clarify any policy in the handbooks at any time, at its sole discretion (or at the discretion of the Board, where applicable), whenever it determines that it is in the best interests of the school to change the policy.

Who To Contact For Questions

Please look for answers in this handbook first, but if you are unable to find the answer to your question please consult the individual or office. If you are unsure whom to contact, the receptionists can connect you with the appropriate person. Who do I contact?

Who We Are

Christian Academy in Japan (CAJ) is a K-12 school established in 1950 to provide Christ-centered education to the children of evangelical missionaries. While continuing in this purpose, CAJ also serves other families who desire this type of education for their children. We serve approximately 450 students in our day school program and more than 300 students in our School Support Services program. Our program uses English as the language of instruction and a North American curriculum. Click to read more
