Loving this school so far ! My son just started kindergarten and I just love how much the teachers care and how the school just keeps the kids innocent a little longer :)

Truly a unique little enclave of hands-on, participative education for a fairly low price. We sent our daughter there for kindergarten after she just barely missed the cutoff for kindergarten at public school. We couldn't be happier with the results. By the time she left she was reading at the mid-1st grade level and was a considerable amount ahead of where her sister was at the same level in public schools! Very military friendly and offer considerable discounts for service members. If you're PCSing to Hawaii and looking to avoid everything you've heard about the public schools here (all true), please consider Ho`ala as an alternative. The teachers care for the students and the students care for one another.

Hoala School is the greatest gift we could have given our daughter. As a military family, we got relocated from Virginia to Hawaii. On a short note, as the School opening date was coming up, the staff was walking us through the process every step that feels like getting a warm welcome hug. Our child is cared for, respected, listened to, encouraged, and challenged. She experiences joy in every aspect of her education. She feels connected to the community and supported in a way to learn in meaningful and memorable ways. The incredibly warm and talented staff creates an ideal environment for academic, social, and emotional growth. She grows to be a confident learner. Hoala School takes the matter of COVID-19 and social distancing seriously and with precautions to ensure all children are safe at all times. For almost 2 years, I am grateful every day for the amazing experience that is Hoala School. I wish every child could have the opportunity to attend this very special School.

An amazing school. Our daughter Mila loved it there and still talks of how she wishes she could go back. It truly is a family experience. The teachers were amazing. Mrs. Carolyn did such a great job with her. The staff truly cares and helps to not only teach education but social interactions and community. If we ever move back to Hawaii I can't think of any other school I would want my kids in

Both of our children have attended Hoala school for many years, beginning with Kindergarten. Our son is now in 6th grade and daughter in 9th grade at Hoala, and we continue to be happy with our decision to send our children to this gem of a school. Our kids are motivated to excel in their studies, take responsibility for their own educational progress, and have developed self confidence in their abilities. These are all qualities that have been nurtured by the Hoala community (teachers and admin. staff).

Great school if you really need extra help. If not, this is definitely not the place for you.
