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.

The school is very hands on learning and I personally like that. The teachers help students if asked. Everyone is friendly. I never had a problem with other students. Kihei Charts has a program where you can take college classes in high school. Some students choose to take a advantage of it. I took two and enjoyed them.
