If you're living in the McKinley Complex area and your child is about to attend McKinley High School, I strongly recommend exploring other options—whether that means transferring through a GED program to another public school or considering a private school instead.While there are individual teachers and staff who care, the overall administration feels disconnected from the student body. The school morale is noticeably low, and it shows in both the environment and the way things are run. There's a lack of unity—not just between students and faculty, but even within the community as a whole. It often feels like everyone is just trying to get through the year rather than actually grow, connect, or improve.The school could benefit from stronger leadership, better communication, and a more structured support system for students. Right now, that’s missing. If you're looking for a high school experience that will really support your child’s development—both academically and socially—this might not be the best fit.

I am a proud parent of my children s that attended Queen Ka'ahumanu School. There are lots of care and aloha you can see in this school. The teachers and staff work so hard in helping and teaching students that really need the assistance. From students who can speak English, to students who cannot speak English. Great help and support from the faculty and staffs. Thank you for all your assistance.

This school is great, clean, close by.
