My kids enjoy this school very much. The kids are great, the staff is exceptional. It is a kind, loving environment where children can grow and discover what there passion is. Happy Parent here!
HAAS provides a well rounded education that focuses on the diversity of the learner. It has small class sizes and teachers/supporters that are willing to go the extra 10 miles for the students and the community.
Before moving to Hawaii, our #1 priority was finding the best school for our son, & we found it with HAAS. The teachers truly care and are invested in seeing the children succeed and grow at their own pace with love and encouragement. We are really blessed that we found them!
Haas offers a lot of variety to its students from on campus programs, to a variety of local neighborhood options, to homeschool, and even online program. I appreciate the close relationship the students have with their teachers.
Because this school have great teachers, staff, and the students are cared for as respectable human beings.
HAAS is innovative and student oriented. They have been progressive and taken on the system to become one of Hawaii's top charter schools. They embrace the home-schoolers and small community groups under their umbrella. They also encourage students and their expression of talent with regular parent evenings filled with performances.
HAAS is a small, but growing community. The social life is that of a close knit family. Parent support is stronger than at any school I have belonged to. The energy of the school is friendly, talented, and the opportunities to express are available to every student in their twice yearly 'Performance Fair.' The turn out of parents and community members is always big. This is a great school that is very community based and promotes progressive learning.
This is a pretty good school but what really bothers me is their lack of after-school programs and extracurricular activities.
This school is so unique and my child really enjoys learning there.
The students individuality is encouraged. The school also encourages community service and leads by example. The campus is friendly, no violence is tolerated. The teachers avail themselves to tutoring to help all students succede
