High School classes usually start somewhere between 8:30 am - 9:00 am depending on the school. A lot of the kids will be at school before that time if they are involved in a club and have club activities These kids are usually at school from about 6:30 am.

As has been pointed out, the start time varies from school to school. Usually around 8:30, but it varies. The thing is that many club activities have morning practices, requiring the students to get there as early as 7:00.

It varies. I'm an assistant teacher in Japan at elementary and junior high schools. My schools start at 8:00 but many of my friends teach at schools that start at 8:30. I think I know of one that starts at 9:00. 8:30 seems to be the most common. At my schools 8:00 is the start of homeroom and then other classes begin at 8:30.
