I would rate my experience as average. From a teachers perspective, I personally feel that I have really worked hard to show my students how much I love them, and want them to succeed. The teachers I have worked with are constantly evolving to find ways to fix some of these issues I see on this website. If you are a parent considering a move to this school, please know that the teachers and administrators really care about your child. We will do everything in our power to make sure they have what the need to grow in their learning and social skills. We are not perfect, we make mistakes, but in my experience I have yet to meet one of our teachers not willing to make things right. Our clientele is varied in economic levels from homelessness to more than enough. Many of our students are facing hardships at home, or are dealing with a language barrier that is slowing them down. But, on the other hand many of our students are thriving! We have great school programs and sponsorships from the community that are helping raise the bar tenfold! We have such high hopes for the years to come, and can see a shift right around the corner! So in regards to our results from this website, I thought it needed a real review. Someone with their feet in the mud really working in this community to better the lives of these kids. I am very proud to have worked in this school because the students have taught me how to think outside of the box when learning looks rough, and great support from fellow teachers who are facing the same struggles. I can honestly say that I am a better teacher to have worked here. Go Rams!

I am very greatful to the faculty of Kalihi Elemenatry School my daughter brings home homework and we work together to get it done. The Teachers are second to none in my humble Opinion.
