I rated Kaimuki HS 4 stars because every school always has room for improvement. Kaimuki has a drastically dropped in enrollment, therefore, each student gets more attention, which is a great thing! The class sizes are smaller, yet the campus is spacious. Kaimuki offers that one-on-one learning due to the student to teacher ratio. Some teachers will make calls to let you know your child's whereabouts or concerns, some will not, which is common now days, so it's imperative you keep up with your child's wellbeing, and every other item going on with them. Kaimuki is listed with low scores but that's not the case with the student's education level. The low scores are caused mainly by Kaimuki HS being the top school with the highest amount of ESL Students. Kaimuki is currently restructuring their curriculum, and the Board of Education hopes to reflect actual education level scores. Kaimuki has always been extremely talented in all sports, winning many Championships in their division. Kaimuki has an amazing Theatre Program who performs plays throughout the year for both the school and the Public. I do not regret pulling my son out of a private school to attend Kaimuki, he has built relationships and has gained humbling characteristics that isn't taught in the classroom. Kaimuki students are very humble, extremely kind and takes very good care of each other.

My son went to Hokulani for 6 years. He’s a 7th grader now. He had fun at Hokulani learning the importance of values and compassion as well as academics. He enjoyed art, music, drama, Japanese, Spanish, PE, Math team, Hawaiiana, Library activities, Science fair, MIni Society Market day, Computer, and core courses. Teachers are loving, encouraging, and passionate about students’ total well-being. They are great at cheering for and sharing students’ achievements and good behaviors. Staff and faculty at Hokulani work tirelessly to create and provide a safe, fun, and respectful learning environment to students. Parents and families have many opportunities to get involved in various activities with their children, learning and creating memories together. When my son was attending Hokulani, students enjoyed Fall Fair, Fun Run, School Beautification, Movie nights and Family activity nights, Moon & Stargazing with telescopes, and many Book Fairs that involved students and families to work together, bond and feel a strong sense of belonging in the community. We are grateful for the experiences, memories, and learning my son and my family had at Hokulani.

Not open to share the problems happening at school. Poor decision making for students.

This school is great, clean, close by.
