Lua error in Module:Infobox at line 199: malformed pattern (missing ']').Script error: No such module "Check for clobbered parameters". Kadena High School (カデナ高校 Kadena Kōkō?) is an American high school on Kadena Air Base in Okinawa City, Okinawa Prefecture, Japan, and is administered by Department of Defense Education Activity. Opened in 1981, the school is for English-speaking American military dependents. It is run under the supervision of the Okinawa Department of Defense Dependents Schools District.
Campus
The School is located near the east entrance of Gate 5 with Kadena Middle School on the west side of the Gate. The school has a main building where most classes and activities are held. Due to a large number of students, an additional 2-Story building, referred to as "The Annex", was added. The school pool was filled in due to a bad foundation, and the pool house was subsequently given to the school's AFJROTC unit.
History
When opened in 1981, it included grade levels 7-12, as there were no middle schools at the time. A middle school for grades 7 and 8 was built across the street in 1990 with access via a bridge, and later included grade 6.
Sports
The school mascot is the Panther and the colors are black and gold.
The school's main rivals are Kubasaki High School and Okinawa Christian School International.
The school has teams in baseball, softball, tennis, basketball, soccer, football, wrestling, cross country and track.
