This school was a very great opportunity for me. I came from a small town and soon lived on campus in the dorms. We are held at a very expectation so we were always pushed to do our best. This school has offered me countless things that I still use in todays world. I have learned so much and the pride I have for graduating from this school is unmatchable.

Kamehameha Schools is such a great place to be. The resources and academic opportunities are amazing. They provide good food and the teachers are mostly competent. I believe organization and the handling of certain events could have been better.

Kamehameha Schools Kapalama is an extremely good school that I'd recommend anyone who is eligible to apply to. It's an academically sound school that offers an associate degree by the time you graduate high school, and offers an array of APs and Honors classes that fits your needs. Teachers are the best and care about their students and their work. The environment is good, and the people are overall nice. I have nothing I'd like to overall change.

However, if you have a child that is above "normal" in reading, math, etc at the elementary level...you are in for a long haul. Despite all our best efforts and working with our child, we have watche...
