In 2013, so far this school has raised over 3 million dollars in scholarship offers for a class of only 18 seniors! I was amazed at what I found. Music program, competitive ILH sports, spiritual development, Sat Prep, involved college counselling. I highly recommend Lanakila Baptist to any parent who wants to see their children given the opportunity to succeed. The path is definitely here.

Do not recomend this high school. Teachers do not teach, and they get to involved in teenage drama.

We have been at Lanakila for the last 2 years. I have a son who's a Junior and a daughter who is a Sophomore. It has been a great experience for us. We are a military family and we have to move a lot. Our kids asked us to stay here so they could graduate from this school. The facility is not in the best condition because Lanakila is in a historic district and they are limited to what they are allowed to do to the building. However, what goes on inside is what counts. The sports program is good, but they are a small school so they will not be competing with the larger private schools. Academically, both my kids have excelled, but they are used to this style of curriculum. Definitely put it on your list of schools to check out. Mahalo!

Lanakila by far is the best school on the island. We are a military family that came from the mainland and was afraid the schools in Hawaii would not meet mainland standards, but Lanakila has been the best school my daughter has ever attended. The principal and staff truely love the kids and push the kids to achieve excellance. I recommend this school, and my daughter will continue to attend Lanakila till she graduates.

Lanakila Baptist is a great place to send your children if you want them to excel academically and spiritually in life. It is an excellent college prep school.

This school is a very Good school. They will teach you Academically and also Spiritually! They have a very talented Basketball and Volleyball team for both boys and girls. They also have the Best teachers available! I would highly recommend this school to anyone. Because once you come to this school your like Ohana (Hawaiian word for Family)

They need alot of work. I went from 2004-2007 the first year wasnt so bad but once they got a new principal everything went down. All we had was trouble from them.

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Unlike public schools, private schools are not always required to report data about their schools or not required to take the same tests as public schools. Many private schools take different standardized tests; however, that information is often made available only to families of enrolled students. We strive to acquire additional private school data whenever available.
