Nile C. Kinnick High School is a U.S. military-operated school now located in US Fleet Activities Yokosuka, Japan. It was originally located in Yokohama, giving it the nickname Yo-Hi, but it was renamed for Navy aviator Nile Clarke Kinnick, Jr. in 1959, upon its shift from an Army to a Navy school. Kinnick High School usually has around 600 students and is about 45 km from Tokyo. Kinnick High School is an NCA accredited institution, and therefore charges around $20,000/year of tuition to non-military-dependents.
