Enchanted Lake Elementary School

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.

We are new to the area. After reading reviews I was so scared. Please judge for yourself. Me and my two children were embraced with an aloha spirit. We come from the mainland and my children are behind. Not saying that will be the case for you and yours. Just providing an unbiased honest review. So far I wish I had enrolled my children sooner! I hope you can rest easy too once you DO enroll your children. Much love from one stressed ma to another. So the school is BEYOND expectations, and and excellent learning environment! Everyone is committed and it shows! The children are all so kind and respectful!

Wow! What an incredible school. My son is in Kindergarten here and every single person we've encountered - from teachers, to counselors, to the nurse the principal, the front office, and education aides - has been truly committed to supporting the children. The older children smile and wave when they walk past the grown ups. It is a magical place, both in terms of the physical space and the overall vibe. They really are living their values and the kids here are fortunate to learn and grow in an environment that appreciates SEL as much as academic progress (and understands they are two sides of the same coin). We couldn't be happier or more grateful about our decision to send our son here.

We have send two children to St. John Vianney School in Kailua and still have one set to enter its Early Learning Center (ELC) 3 next year. What incredible teachers and administrators. And it shows in the students. They build a strong academic foundation without distraction by new fads. You don't have to be Catholic to apply, but Catholic identidy is core and religion is taught almost every day. There are a variety of extraciriccular activities to include a hula halau. They have a excellent volleyball teams as well. Tuition assistance is very much available. Best thing you can do is to just reach out to the school if you want your child to have an excellent local education that is grounded in Christ.
