Yokota High School alumni participated in an “All Years Reunion” for all graduating classes of the school’s 50 years of education at Yokota Air Base, Japan, Sept. 29.

 

The school welcomed all past and present students, parents, and family members of Yokota schools for a pep rally and ensuing Homecoming football game against American School in Japan, a leading international school in Tokyo.

 

Established in 1973, Yokota High School was designed as “a school with open doors," to help facilitate learning with modular classes and has since undergone several facility expansions and adjustments to its curriculum to increase support for its community of military-affiliated families and students.

 

Today, the school educates 286 students, continuing to mold them into independent thinkers and lifelong learners in a safe, academically inspiring environment.
