GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

It is an amazing school with a wide diversity. Kapolei has little to few crimes, you are connected with many people, and you can easily make friends because everyone is friendly.

The academics are much better than the culture at this school. There are various educational opportunities especially with the health field, along with college counselors that will help you with anything you may need regarding college. The sports are good but not amazing, and there are not as much extra curricular activities than other schools.

I enjoyed Kapolei High School a lot because you were so connected with everyone at the school. The securities not only kept you safe, but treated you like a friend if you showed them respect. The teachers were always the best from my experience. The school is very diverse ethnicity wise, so you're surrounded by all types of culture. The activities and events that took place at school were also always entertaining and overall I had a good experience.

I too went to Kapolei High School previously, but moved to a private school. I really loved KHS and miss everything about it. The teachers there are so caring and really make classes fun. There are a lot of students, but that just teaches you to be responsible and accountable for your own learning....
