Rae Kushner Yeshiva High School (RKYHS) is the high school of the Joseph Kushner Hebrew Academy (JKHA/RKYHS), a Modern Orthodox co-educational yeshiva at 110 South Orange Avenue in Livingston, New Jersey. Together the two schools educate students from nursery through high school.

The school combines Judaic and general studies. Its stated aims are a life of Torah and mitzvot, the study of secular knowledge and American democratic values, service to the Jewish people and a lasting bond with the State of Israel. The Judaic Studies programme focuses on Torah scholarship and the oral and written traditions, with daily instruction in modern Hebrew (Ivrit), and Religious Zionism shapes student life. High-school students take part in STEM and biomedical engineering activities, Model United Nations, community service trips and varsity sports such as hockey and wrestling.

Applications to RKYHS are made online. Families can apply for need-based financial assistance through FACTS and for affordability programmes such as a middle-income tuition cap, and the high school offers the Halpern Merit Award.
