1、The purpose of this study is to clarify how "The School Dance" has evolved from its beginning to present-day high schools.The "Square Dance" was introduced to women's high schools in the Meiji Era. "Faust," which was introduced by Akuri Inokuchi from America at the end of the Meiji Era, and "Tokura Dance," which was instructed in high schools from 1940s to 1950s, derived from "The School Dance"2、Materials for this research were gathered by means of inquiry. In addition programs of high school sports days in 2010 were gathered. Some school's home pages were also examined.Subjects for this research were interviewed on sports days in 2010 and 2011.3、Our research revealed four main points.1) The dance instructors were gymnastics teachers who had used their gymnasticsclasses to teach "The School Dance."2) "The School Dance" taken up by the schools we investigated were 'Quadrile,' 'Faust,' 'Minori,' 'Tagoto no Tsuki,''Hanabatake no Ashita,' and so on.3) "The School Dance" was practiced in high schools for many years. One reason for this was tradition. Traditional dances continued to be proudly practiced and performed for long time in high schools. Another reason was a yearning from the graduating class,which hoped that "The School Dance" would be performed as a memorial to their last school year. The pupils looked forward to participating in "The School Dance" on sports day.4) "The School Dance" was ideal for teaching basic dance techniques and contained various expressions. Many pupils were able to communicate with each other through the synchronized movements and enjoy the sense of harmony it brought them.Traditional dances in high schools were something with which each school could be identified. Furthermore "The School Dance" connected one generation of pupils to the next. These factors make up the educational significance of "The School Dance" in present-day high schools.
