Schools and Education around Shirokane-takanawa

Minato City's school-zone table places all of Shirokane 1-chome, Shirokane 2-chome addresses 1-5, Shirokane 3-6 chome and Takanawa 1-chome addresses 1-3 within the attendance area of the integrated Shirokanenooka Gakuen elementary and junior-high schools. Other parts of Takanawa 1-chome and areas such as Mita 5-chome may have different designated schools, so a home cannot be assigned a school simply because it is described as 'near Shirokane-takanawa Station.' The exact street address must be checked. The broader area also includes higher-education institutions such as Meiji Gakuin University and Temple University Japan Campus, both listed by Toei among facilities accessible from the station. Minato operates a school-choice system for new entrants, but eligible schools and capacity rules change by year. Families choosing housing primarily for education should verify the latest municipal zone information before signing.
