Kula Elementary greatly exceeds the expectations for a public school. The new principal is excellent- he is involved with the community of the school and is a great cohesive factor between parents, students, & teachers. His presence at the school has been noticeably beneficial to all. The teachers are also invested in their students. Every one of them goes far above & beyond to give the children a quality education, and work as an excellent team. The office staff is friendly & helpful & are familiar with each child. Cafeteria workers are dedicated & provide well rounded lunches that include fresh fruits &whole grains. Kula school has a PCNC who coordinates many fun activities outside of the school day such as Family movie night, Pumpkin carving at Halloween, and Christmas Craft Evening. Parent involvement is very high. The PTA is very active and coordinates funds to support extra-curricular teachers that are not solely paid for by the DOE. Currently they support the PE program through their fundraising. Ideally they support an art program as well. Improvement-wise I see only one major area in which the school would benefit-the addition of a full time school counselor.

Best school on maui because the teachers are amazibng and staff so goooooooooooooood love auntie vera me and family love it here KALAMAAAA

This school is great, clean, close by.

Everyone has a choice on if they want to succeed or not. Choice is the students to make, what plays a big part is the parents: what do you do to help your child succeed? Do you help them with their homework? Do you know who your child hangs out with? Do you know what your child does when you are not around? You had a choice to have a child, now do what you can to make your child succeed. Don't blame it on a teacher if your child doesn't want to learn. We put so much on Teacher's to make our child succeed but remember they have 180+ students. Could you make all the students succeed? Don't get me wrong there are some really good teachers that care about the students and school, but there are those who are there for the paycheck. The school offers a wide selection of electives and has one of the best senior project assignments in the state. The school has had many become doctors, scientists, journalist, architects, engineers, and successful businessman. This is a diverse school, and you have the choice to succeed.
