This is not for the waipahu campus but for the Ewa Beach (Elementary campus)…read more It's our son's first year with HTA as a kindergartner and we are at the end of the year so we definitely experience the whole school year with HTA. I want to start off with how happy we are that our son attends HTA. It was a great choice and big win. We have older children who go to multiple schools and HTA by far has won us over. The atmosphere and the attention that our son received in school is by far the greatest. The one on one with the student and teacher ratio works out great our kindergartener has excelled in so many ways. He's about to move on to first grade and he already can read books and tell time not only digital time but the wall clock which I remember only learning in the 3rd grade back in the day. He is also able to identify the currency (worth of each coin and what each coin is called) We do noticed a BIG difference in our son's confidence level and not being afraid to speak up and present his animal research to his fellow classmates. The teachers and staff are all so supportive and they are always so kind. They know every child just about by name which is great because they can identify each child's presence which is valuable and also for safety reasons. They also address any concerns or issues right away with the child and parents/ guardians. HTA has great staff who is able to provide support to the children and parents/ guardians. We are thankful that we are able to join our son on his class Field Studies. It is a true blessing to be able to have this experience to be able to understand what our child is learning on a daily basis. They have weekly agendas which keeps us organized and on schedule. We hope you enjoyed our first year experience review with HTA. Having a kind and supportive team makes a GREAT difference! So be nice to the staff members they deserve the Best!!

Last night my niece's 16th birthday party was held in the Honowai's cafeteria. Very spacious…read more Great thing about having a party there is everything. You can bring your own food and drinks. It probably fits about 200-300 people. Not that we had that much people at the party. Kids are free to run around and exaust all energies. They have an audio system which you are able to use. There's lots of parking, and if you run out of parking you can double park. You don't need to hire an off duty police officer, I think because NO ALCOHOL IS ALLOWED!!! They do recquire a deposit of $800.00, but if there are no damages and everything is left the way it was, the check doesn't get cashed. Great for graduation parties, birthday parties.

Honesty wish i got her in sooner so than that so that she did not need to catch up on a lot of things especially religion. With my daughter being a new student in the school, she was super excited to go to a private school. The cost to go to this school is a lot less than other private schools compared. The office staff worked with me on payments and they took all of my daughters information right away. Her first year/quarter was a little hard adjusting g to their way of teaching. But after all of that butterfly jitters, she got better, grades improved and she got honors. If your not sure what private school to bring your children to, dont hesitate.

The teaching staff was wonderful, personable and well qualified. Unfortunately, the family had to move to mainland and missed being at Lanakila. Eight months later (2022), the family returned and my grandson wanted to go back to Lanakila for 2nd grade. Again, he loves school and learns so much about the Bible. He loves seeing his friends he made in kindergarten and the teachers. Lanakila is "home" to him. Our family is so happy to return and the quality of education is on par. Homework is not too demanding but thorough and keeps up on his education skills daily. In addition, Lanakila has the Awana's club every Wednesday evening so, again, we participate in this kids club

Today is the first day of school, so I thought it would be an appropriate day to review the school…read more My son attended this school last year, and I have just dropped him off for the beginning of his second year. He was nervous about new teachers and classmates (as all kids should be) but happy to go back. This is a big deal because he has never attended any school for two years in a row. We have managed to move every year of his school life (Thank you, Army!) so he was worried that he would not want to go back. I give the school 3 stars because it is just A-OK. The school honestly tries, just not quite hard enough. My biggest concern with the school is not the academics, but the lack of community. As a parent I do not feel particularly welcomed, and as a neighbor I feel absolutely shut out. The best way to improve the school would be to have better involvement with the neighborhoods around it. Open houses, movie nights, gatherings to show off the talents of the children. These things do happen, but are not readily advertised and are not open to the true public. The best way to build a better school is through parental involvement. Bring the parents in and everyone wins.

What makes this school special and deserves 5 stars is the continued efforts of teachers and staff…read morewho continue to strive in helping all students. There are a lot of dedicated teachers at Waipahu Elementary and the students are working hard to improve throughout the school year. The school is very diverse with many students coming from different countries, but they all have something in common...they're at school to learn! Just recently, a student from Waipahu Elementary was the Regional Finalist for the entire State of Hawaii for a Doodle 4 Google National Art contest! First place for the State and representing Hawaii in a national art contest? Awesome! Also students won high scores in JPO state contests, First place in Olelo's Youth Xchange State Video Contest, and ranked high in a recent STEM competition! These are only a small glimpse of amazing success that Waipahu Elementary students are capable of achieving with the support of their teachers! 5 Stars for Waipahu Elementary teachers who encourage their students to succeed and 5 stars to students who make an effort in achieving their goals! 5 stars to parents who make positive efforts in supporting their child's education! Yay! Waipahu Elementary School!

1/11/23 review for PHCA (Pearl Harbor Christian Academy)…read more My son had 2 times of incidents that his classmate was hiding class I-Pad. My son reported to HR teacher. At that time no intervention. Today is 2nd time it happened again. why??? It is very stressful to knowing what is going on. I had to send him back to class and looked for every desk and every where.. my son found someone's bag. This is very very disappointing. Why school do not have any intervention to teach. I emailed to HR teach and I am kind of waiting to hear their reaction and what is intervention. Is this really pray to GOD every day? Should I think about getting worse or better? I am putting message only one of staff can read and do better work for kids. I will continue to update with school's and HR teacher's intervention. Rating can be change to 5 or stay 1

Teachers are one of the hardest workers you rarely thank…read more My kid attends school here and the teachers really care. I get updates via the seesaw app (available on the apple and google store. Why do I feel like an infomercial? ) I swear teachers never sleep, cause updates are between 10pm and 5am. Thank a teacher cause they help shape the future better then some parents. After reading this, I should attend the upcoming PTA meeting. Weekly as parents, our son get a homework assignment sheets. For us Navy folk, very similar to the POW for homework. There is also a monthly reminder/upcoming events sheet. I like this idea cause it helps me plan for events I would like to attend, in this case the last Ohana Fair. This event is an annual fair held on school grounds. It's a great time for kids and for parents to socialize with other parents. The teachers are out and about but mostly concentrating on running the booth. You don't come here for the food, you come for the stories and smiles. TIP: If you go to the annual Fair, parking is limited. Walk or ride a bike to the place. And if you drive, slow down for the small keikis because we know they like to run out between parked cars. Thank a teacher except the ones that teach CORE math?!?!? They confuse the hell out of me. 2+2=4 people!! Lastly if a teacher is reading this, thank you and stop looking for grammar errors. M

We very much love this school! Faculties at this school provides excellent communication, and…read moreamazing team work to provide families the utmost convenience experience. Although parking lot is one-way, it provides good (and safer) traffic flow and less school congestion. A/C buildings (except cafeteria), ample industrial bike racks in different areas, water fountain with bottle-filling station, all aspects of the school are very clean and well-maintained. I have zero complaints about their education system either. My son hasn't struggled (to the point of exhaustion) and fight me on homework. His teacher is always available to provide extra help should he need it. Lots of field trips allows students to gain knowledge outside of school property and create more fun memories. Very, VERY happy parent here! Mahalo to all faculties of this school for always providing excellency!
