At Sera High School, students engage in activities to explore the attractions and challenges of the local area during "Comprehensive Inquiry Time."
This year, the students focused on the issue of the declining number of visitors to the Otasho History Museum.
Therefore, we planned a unique event to promote visitation, in which Pepper would appear as the " new museum director. "
