I am a student at Kaimuki highschool I don't recommend as they are very unorganized current events that happen are outrageous why beautify the school when it can go to other thing like metal detectors if there is incidents I was held up and hopping to get out but was held up and blame for not bringing a clear bag when they didn't announce it till the day of and also sent a email out in such short notice which was the day before and 1:50 pm not just that the VP blame us for not bringing clear bags in such short notice and not take into consideration about the kids who need there bags still for school even trying get invest in better ways in making things better this a school is the worst unorganized and and not worth coming if anything I would suggest there art program cause that's the best thing that's the only good about Kaimuki

As I'm a senior in Kaimuki High School. It's become a great opportunity to put myself involved in the school. I'm the Senior Class President and I've been a part of the Student Leadership for 4 years in high school and it helped me learn so much about the students and teachers and our Kaimuki community.

I had a horrible experience here. I was a straight A student before attending this school. There was so much violence and drug abuse that it caused me to stop going to school. Kids will rob your stuff or jump you. Security was useless. Very little extra curriculars. Many kids drop out.

I also feel that the academies are a little rude as they are higher class academies and lower class academies. STEAM would rank as high attendance and gpa, and hospitality 2nd. I feel that bei...
