What is so good about kamehameha school?

Kamehameha Schools’ mission is to fulfill Pauahi’s desire to create educational opportunities in perpetuity to improve the capability and well-being of people of Hawaiian ancestry.

Kamehameha Schools is known as one of the most prestigious private schools in the country. When my step son applied whe nwe were living in Las Vegas his teacher there (a Haole) knew about the school and was impressed he was applying to there. With a 100% acceptance rate in Colleges and Universities for graduates of Kamehameha Schools. Kam school also has a 98% graduation rate.

Here are a few advantages and values of Kam School graduates:

• grounded in spiritual and Christian values;
• intellectually, emotionally, and socially self-reliant;
• resourceful, resilient, life-long learners;
• equipped with the skills they need to succeed in endeavors of their choosing;
• responsible, ethical, contributing members of their multi-cultural and diverse communities, and
• prepared to practice and perpetuate the Hawaiian values and traditions of Ke Ali`i Pauahi
