I really love this school, it puts so much focus on culture and getting in touch with your Hawaiian roots. It follows regular educational curriculums but with a cultural twist, as well as valuable cultural courses. Kumus have a wide variety of backgrounds (farmers, fishermen, agriculturalists, etc). Hawaiian olelo is taught here. Connecting with the aina is taught here.

My son came from Kamehameha preschool, which he loved and was so sad to leave, to Ka Waihona. After his second week of school, he came home and told me Ka Waihona is the best school EVER and he loves it so much and wants to go every day.

The grades now go from kindergarten to 8th grade so keiki can get as much cultural learning as they can before going on to highschool. My only complaint is the tiny parking lot; pick up and drop off is so hectic.

As a parent and community member I can conquer that there have been changes made that have proved to boost morale and excitement amongst the students. I have recently had a problem with my child being bullied at the school. Immediate action was taken and the situation was handled appropriately. I know that my child as well as all other students at Ka Waihona are being treated fairly and respected. There has been immense improvement in my childs academic skills and I have seen a positive change in my childs confidence and self esteem. This could not be done without the teamwork of the ENTIRE staff. Ka Waihona o ka Na'auao PCS is a great choice!

This school needs new administration. I don't have anything personal against the Principal, but he lacks professionalism. Although some teachers really have a heart for teaching, there are a few that are BULLIES and treat the students and their colleagues with disrespect. Despite parental complaints, it seems that those self righteous few are continuously ALLOWED to behave in such a UNPROFESSIONAL manner. Everything that glitters isn't gold!
