Eita Sato and Aoi Hoshi, both 15, who are the only two students at Yumoto Junior High School, attend their graduation ceremony in Ten-ei Village, Fukushima Prefecture, Japan, March 13, 2023. Eita and Aoi, who have been together since they were three, are the last two graduates of Yumoto Junior High, a public school established in 1947 that in its prosperous years sent out more than 50 graduates. With only a few enrolments expected in the coming years, the village decided to close the school for good. "We heard rumours about the school closure in the second year, but I didn't really think it would happen. I was shocked when I heard the news," Eita said. 🔗 Read more at our link in bio. 📷 Issei Kato #Japan #population #school #reuters #reutersphotos
