I have been going to PHCA for a couple of years and here is my opinion. First of all some teachers have favoritism and are biased (middle school mainly). I love my teachers but they can be really rude when they are having a bad day. Most of the time they put their anger on the students and the next day they don’t even recall about it. They make some things a big deal even though they really aren’t, well it depends.. When it comes to bullying in my experience the principal ( a woman) did NOTHING about it! Now that we have a male principal and a woman vice principal bullying is taken seriously (sometimes..)
Second is how they teach, sometimes they are rude when you ask for help. They sorta expect you to know right away but not most of the time. Some of the lessons don’t make sense at all or not just put together in a proper context. The curriculum is ok i guess. Lastly is the students oh my goodness. If you go to the church or if you have a popular sibling you are praised my everyone (students and teachers). This is part of the favoritism and the bullying. Overall i love this school i have made tons of memories but sometimes this school is just not it.

There are some great teachers here and it has a lot of potential but overall there is too much favoritism, bullying, poor communication with parents and poor leadership. Our kids attended this school for several years and we had some good experiences but also some of the worst ones. I do not recommend this school to anyone I speak with. There is a MAJOR disconnect from it and the church. It most definitely does not feel like a ministry of the church which is very sad. Hopefully they get a new principal( it was a woman when we were there) and are able to refocus on providing quality Christian education to students and partnering with parents.

Please send your child if you want to experience with bullying power, retaliation, drama. This is not organization and does not have rules to play. I feel like its only good for Preschool. " I am making my way"

I’m too biased my daughter started Kindergarten here in 2001..The foundations set here enabled her to be successful every since..She was a high school honors student, student body president in high school and a double major at the University of North Carolina, currently she’s a first year law student at Howard University..Thank you PHCA

As with any school, a student's experience at Mililani HIgh is what he or she makes of it. My daughter is currently a junior and has been taking Honors or AP classes every year. The teachers are hard-working and committed to student learning, but the student needs to study also! She passed the AP class she took last year as a sophomore and is doing well with 2 AP classes this year. She is also in the school string ensemble and after-school orchestra. If your student is motivated and serious about academics this is a great school for him/her.

I attended Pearl Harbor Christian Academy in 2010 through 2012 (7th through 8th grade). The academics were way too easy and it did not prepare me for high school. The teachers basically spoon fed us all the answers to quizzes and tests. Our english teacher at the time was great and she challenged us the most. All the other subjects and electives were too easy.

This school is way too strict. They have free dress days on Saturdays. My 1st grade sister got in trouble from wearing a sleeved dress that covered her shoulder, but it did not meet their standards. Apparently, it has to stretch out to the size of a dollar. This school is way too strict and degrades girls at a young age.

Their morals are very Christian which I have nothing against. They strongly preach the Bible and integrate it into their curriculum.

This school in my opinion has done an amazing job with my child that struggled with gasping information and keeping up with the rest of is class, now he does not have a learning disability but he wasn't assertive or confident at PHCA he learned to believe in himself he also has since grown up academically as well as personally. In one year my son won 1st place in the science fair, join the math Olympics and is now a published author for The American Library of Poetry! He excels in ways I have never seen him and I have this wonderful school to thank!! Thank you PHCA for giving my son the confidence he needed!

This is my son's 3rd year at PHCA and he absolutely loves it. He actually looks forward to going to school, especially on those long breaks. He has learned and grown so much in his academics, love and knowledge of the bible, and his personality is wonderful. As parents, we only wish the best for our son and the staff has promised and followed through with all of my expectations. What i love the most about this school is the fact that the staff knows the names of each individual child that attends the school...now that upclose & personal atmosphere is astonishing. I highly recommend this school.

Our daughter has attended this school for 6 years and loves it. We like the involvement of the staff and accelerated program they use. Also, for a private school in Hawaii the tuition rate is much lower than other schools. We also love the principles the school follows, as even the athletic program's primary focus is playing the right way (over winning at all costs). Highly recommended.

My child started at Children's House, great school but quite expensive and we did not feel it was challenging her. When our 2nd came along, we could not afford it. Pearl Harbor Christian Academy was highly recommended as a great loving, supportive but challenging school with great structure. My 1st child has soared and my 2nd is in K4 and is doing great! We've loved every teacher so far. It is a great and strong Christian environment and very fair to all the students. They are so much ahead of public schools. Rooms are immaculate and air conditioned. Lunch program is excellent and flexible. They have great sports and emphasis not only on curriculum, but community service, penmanship, and citizenship. Communication with the school and teachers is excellent and very organized. You always know what your child needs to do for homework for the day and week and you are given progress reports before the actual report cards. A well rounded school. I pray it goes to high school by the time my children get to that age. Excellent school at a very reasonable and affordable price. I love it and my children love it there.

I have gone to this school for 4 years. In elementary my experience was spectacular! i had wonderful teachers who cared about me and challenged me! Sixth grade was was ok too, i loved it! Our teacher was so funny! But my last year it wasn't all that great. We had a great language teacher who challenge us, she was hard on us in the beginning because before our other teachers didn't expect much from us. After having her as a teacher my reading and writing abilities have soared. My classmates were very kind, loving, and just great people to be around. There was some drama but our class was like a big family. Overall the curriculum was ok. The biggest complaint i have is how some teachers showed a great amount of favoritism or how they disliked some students and made their time there a bit miserable.

i went here and it was absolutely horrible. a few teachers showed a uncontrollable amount of favoritism and the principal at the time well she was a real piece of work. the curriculum itself was good and as far as other teachers go they were great! but as it goes a couple bad apples DEFINITELY ruined the bunch. they were my worst schooling years.

Our kids attended 2005-2006 and they loved it! We were there only a year and were transferred back to the mainland. I wish they could have stayed longer. Excellent school!

This school has room for growth. They use the ABeka curriculum which is suppose to be an accelerated curriculum. It is right on task with mainland schools. The classroom size are average compared to the mainland. Teacher quality varies per grade as with any school. The tuition is affordable. I would recommend Hawaii Baptist Academy. It is a college prep school. The curriculum is challenging hence college prep. Teacher quality is average. Tuition is a bit more but your child will get a stronger foundation in their education and christian life. Very family friendly school.
