My teachers were the best part of my schooling, all of them support me and all my goals. Sadly, there's not the best academics for advanced learning, but the teachers always made sure the students had the support they needed to succeed.

Such a small school, yet look at our proficiency scores. Students & staff are not motivated. Glad that I moved on to a better school.

I attended HAAS for five years and would not have rather gone to any other school. The school itself is small, making it so that each of the students become well acquainted with one another and their teachers. When the time came for me to graduate it really did feel like I had cultivated an extra little family. The only bad thing I have to say about HAAS is its lack of sports and clubs. I would have loved to participate in more sports throughout high school, but my only option to do that was join a different high school's sports team.

I first started when got into Hui Malama (a small branch of HAAS) in seventh grade and I learned so much about teamwork and I really enjoyed the project based learning! Every week we would take water tests an...

My son started here when it was fairly new. In the four years he attend until his graduation it grew substantially. Although it has been a few years since his graduation, and I no longer live in Hawaii to see what the school has become, I can say it was a once in a life time experience for him. My s...
