Bioethical topics have been dealt with in Japanese high school textbooks of ethics since Aprill 1994 because of the revision of "a course of study" issued by the Ministry of Education, Science and Culture in 1989. This paper briefly describes the current situation of the bioethics education in high school. This study consists of two parts ; 1) analysis of how bioethics is taught in textbooks and teachers'guidebooks and 2) analysis of the questionnaire to clarify the attitudes of the ethics teachers toward bioethics education. As a result of 1), it was found that definition of bioethics varies in each textbook and teachers'guidebook and most of the keywords in bioethics are related to death such as euthanasia or brain death. As a result of 2), it was found that 58% of respondents had given lectures on bioethics and 51% felt that the textbook does not have enough contents of bioethics. Most of the respondents recognized the necessity of bioethics education in high school.
