Attended a Kaiser Cougars Basketball game. Watch the JV and Varsity games. The JV was unbelievable. Will definitely attend more games.

I'm not happy about the graduation ceremony dress code as I'm sure a lot of students feel that they should get to be themselves on the last day that defines their end to childhood and entry into young-adulthood marked by ceremony and walking to accept their diploma is a heavy and weighty feeling. To finally experience a relief of the culmination of their hard work- matching everyone and being so strict about it just defines the Hawaii Public School's under-funding and in my opinion, over exertion of "power." They don't need a strict dress code of matching colors of white and black only! They'll look like a class of waiters or servers. Please fix this. School colors would be okay, or just have a simple dress code of "professional!" Why is that not okay? Side Note: Hawaii schools look like prisons. I implore people to do more for Hawaii Public Schools; redesign, fix, and change is necessary. Take your cues from the schools like Issaqua High School, in Issaquah, WA., Eastlake HS, etc. Not having DECA, choices for lunch, and zero snack machines is crazy!! You can make so much money for the school through programs set up by Coca Cola and Pepsi and there are so many ways to make the school better- plus the office people. Please fix their terrible attitudes and sickening power issues they possess. I've never hated going to a high school office more than yours. Growing up the ladies and gentlemen in the office of a High School were always helpful, caring, inviting, & friendly. It's outrageous to experience this front desk team of mean people. I don't know if it's designed that way but it's wrong on so many levels. I shall digress, back to the main point: Their cap and gown and sashes for upstanding presidents list & 4.0 (4.25 this year) students should be your focus (Cum Laude/Summa Cum Laude, etc.,), are you even doing that? How do parents get so little information from the school? It's about time you people stepped up to the plate and stopped your worry about what's under their cap & gowns and focus on your real problems. I've seen the way some kids are dressed for school in items that leave nothing to the imagination. So why, on this day, are you acting like you have it all together? For show? That's kinda about right, unfortunately. And you put it on the families or the kids can't walk. If other parents watched the video by Mr. Taraoka, he must've threatened detention 25 times or more or telling seniors, "you won't be able to walk!" Totalitarian is the definition I'd use. It's distressing to say the least. The class of 2023 is kind, generous, smart, funny, and skilled. Treat them like the young adults they are and remove the dress code for graduation to "professional," minus the color matching. It's a simple thing, really, and would make the most sense. Mahalo Nui Loa!

There is a 6 month ongoing investigation by the DOE Civil Rights Department on the Principal, the AD and the Varsity Baseball Coach. They are being investigated for violating both my sons and others Civil right. The school shows lack of responsibility in protecting their student athletes. Please pass the word on and contact the DOE Civil Rights department and speak to Alan or Nicole. Let them know your issues so we can correct their actions. Thanks.

The school is a nice size school with a huge football stadium . Recently attended a game at this highschool and was pleasantly surprised on how the parking situation was handled. Both school staff and students we there to guide cars and make sure everything was orderly. Now that I think of it, it was their homecoming game and it was nice to see how much school pride they have! This seems like a real good school to go to if you lived In the area.

Nice gym with updated windows but it's still kind of warm there. If you plan to sit there for a while bring cushioned stadium chairs because the bleachers are hard on the bottom. The bathrooms are clean and stocked with paper amenities. They serve food during some games but you can't eat inside. It's pretty clean. Lots of parking in the nearby lot. Accessible.

I cannot say enough good things about my kids' high school; the teachers and staff have all been exceptionally helpful in helping the kids transition into a new school system. They truly care about the kids as people, not just students - even my kids have commented on this. Whenever I have had questions or any issues with my kids have come up, teachers and staff are really responsive and helpful. We totally made the right choice when we selected our home based on this school district after moving here from Virginia.

What you'd expect of a high school gym. A little weathered, but generally well maintained. Sustains heavy use year-round.
