I have two kid in this school. My son tried to take advanced Spanish but was told that the class was used for homework and for movies. Then he went to Geometry and was told by the teacher that paddling was the focus and if he paddled he would pass geometry. Then his English teacher had some kind of a nervous breakdown in class. The Algebra teacher will not teach and only passes kids cause she has too. When we approached her she gave us a number for tutoring. There are 20 students in that class and only 7 stay, the rest leave to cruise the hallways. Kids in this school can get up and leave the class anytime they want. The algebra teacher told all the students to leave because they were asking questions and when they came back she scolded them for leaving. The students have actually told her to take tutoring herself. The principal is nowhere to be found and the students never interact with him. This school only gets higher rating than others in Hawaii because the numbers are not correct and teachers fudge them. My son went to talk to a counselor and was told to come back because they did not want to stop their fun time to handle issues that really don't matter. WOW!!!!!!!!
This is a good school good curriculum good extra curricular good with math and grammar classes. Teacher are great with students.
