"This school was founded on the strong will of the people of Futaba-gun
to keep the flame of education burning in Futaba, the passionate desire of the government
and other associated organizations to realize restoration and establish a new and advanced education system,
and above all, the strength of will among the children to recover, their motivation, new sense of values,
creativity and high aspirations to realize their dreams that were kindled after the earthquake."

"Be an innovator" is the school motto.
There are issues that have come to light as the result of the earthquake.
What is needed by not only Fukushima Prefecture, but by Japan as a whole, to realize a new society....
One of the missions of Futaba Future School is to foster innovators,
who will take on the challenges of tackling difficult issues.
We interviewed the principal on his attitude toward education, and the first generation of students
at the school about their school life and future dreams.
Introducing the [Futaba Educational Support Team]
"The team was formed by volunteers from different fields, in July 2014,
with the aim of supporting the restoration of education in Futaba-gun of Fukushima Prefecture.
Based on the concept of 'offering unprecedented education in an unprecedented environment,'
the team has provided support to Futaba Future School, integrating junior and senior high schools,
in composing their school song, designing their school uniforms, and helping with classes
and club activities at elementary, junior high and senior high schools in Futaba.
The team has also cooperated in organizing events to allow children to deepen their ties
with their local communities.
The movie reports on the aspirations and thoughts of the members involved in supporting
the restoration of education in Futaba-gun."
