Kaelepulu is such a great school. It is very small which allows for close cultivated relationships with each other and the families. We have always had amazing teachers. The kids are taught to love and respect each other and you can see that in their behaviors. Kaelepulu has not only taught subject matter but also how to be kind and respectful humans. They assist in connecting the kids to nature through gardening. We will miss this school so much. The staffs love for the kids shines through.

Very positive. The teachers respond to parent inquiries on a timely basis. They are just as involved and supportive as the teachers in the private schools our child attended. The band and ROTC programs are led by exceptional teachers who inspire the students. The 504 counselor and staff in the registrars office are helpful and very positive. I would highly recommend this school. We love the schedule with 4 classes that meet every day for the entire semester. It's much easier than trying to juggle 7 or 8 classes and assignments all year. Fewer subjects with longer class periods every day improve the learning experience. Finishing class time at 2 p.m. allows students to attend practices and rehearsals or work on homework before they are tired.

I’m about to graduate from this school. It’s probably the best public middle school on island, although you cannot compare any Hawaii schools to those on the mainland. (Most) Teachers here are the best I’ve ever had mainland or not. Be warned that this school has a serious vaping problem. At any given time, there is at least one person vaping in the bathrooms and they have had to close down all bathrooms except one in the past due to this issue. All in all, good school but has a lot of issues.

This school is great, clean, close by.
