Platinum High School is a 1960 American crime drama romance film directed by Charles Haas and starring Mickey Rooney, Terry Moore and Dan Duryea.

Sailing to a coastal California island, Steven Conway sets out to find out what caused the mysterious death of his son.

Denied food and lodging at his first two stops, Conway goes to a remote and elite military school on Sabre Island.

The school is run by Major Redfern Kelly, whose secretary Jennifer Evans wonders why it took Conway four months to come inquire about his son.

Conway explains that he had been in Pakistan the past few months on a business project and only recently found out that the boy's mother, now deceased, had sent him to this exclusive academy with the $10,000 tuition.
