Schools and Education Around Hinode Station
Map & surroundings
According to Minato City's current public-school catchment information, Kaigan 2-chome, where Hinode Station is located, falls within the Shiba Elementary School catchment. Shibahama Elementary School is also nearby in Shibaura 1-chome and participates in Minato City's Morning School program in fiscal 2026. Proximity, however, does not determine the assigned school; catchments are based on the exact residential address. Minato City generally enrolls children in the school assigned to their home address while also operating a school-choice system for new entrants under specified conditions. For children entering in April 2027, elementary pupils may request certain neighboring schools, while junior-high pupils can express a preference among all municipal junior highs, although capacity restrictions may apply. Foreign-national children wishing to enter municipal schools must complete the required procedures. Families linking a property decision to schooling should verify the assigned school and actual route with the Board of Education before signing a lease or purchase contract.
