History
Tajimakōkōmae Station opened on 1 December 1951 as Tabehara Station on the Aizu Line of Japanese National Railways. With the privatisation and restructuring of JNR in April 1987 the station briefly came under JR East, before being transferred on 16 July 1987 to the third-sector Aizu Railway, which has since operated the entire Aizu Line south of Nishi-Wakamatsu. The station was renamed at that handover to reflect its function as the nearest stop for the prefectural high school it serves. Today it remains an unstaffed single-platform halt with only a small waiting room, located 39.5 km along the line from its starting point at Nishi-Wakamatsu.

Notes
The station name was not updated when the high school it serves was merged and renamed in 2023, leaving the platform sign for a school that technically no longer exists under that name.
