Yokota High School (YHS) is a high school located on Yokota Air Base, Japan. It is part of the Department of Defense Education Activity. HistoryYokota High School started construction in the 1970s after a deal was stuck with the Government of Japan to modernize Yokota Air Base in exchange for Air Force property in Greater Tokyo.[1] Yokota High School officially opened in 1973. The school was designed as a "school with open doors" and students had a modular schedule containing 27 mods that they could choose from. The modular schedule continued under the next 2 principals.[2] RenovationsThe school has gone through some renovations, including an artificial turf field, with both football and soccer lines and a surrounding track, which was built in 2012 at a cost of $1.2 million.[3] New schoolStarting in 2015 a new school was planned and the breaking ground ceremony took place on May 19, 2015; officially starting the construction period for the new school. The new school was built and completed in August 2017.[4] Most of the old building will be torn down to make way for a soccer field and open land that will be given back to the Air Force. The new building is a 21st-century school and is the second 21st-century school in DoDEA. Each classroom has movable glass walls that were built to reflect the new method of learning which values collaboration.[5] Extracurricular activitiesYokota High School offers a great amount of extracurricular activities for Academics or Sports for students to participate in.
