Kaimuki High school is amazing !! the staff really takes time to know the students and build bounds with the kids. It is my first year and I was scared to go , now as I am entering the 2nd quarter I walk into every class exited. Many of the teachers have became people that I feel safe with going to.

Overall, a decent high school experience. Due to covid-19, the high school experience was not what is usually expected, but for the time we were at school the amount of activities and opportunities in Kaimuki High School was decent.

My experience at this school is beyong what I thought it would be. Everyone looks down at the school as the worst at everything from academics to football. However everyone at the school is amazing in their own way. The one thing I would like to have changed though is the systems management so teachers are less stressed.
