Kailua High is an SCBM school that promotes an exciting learning environment to a diverse, multi-ethnic student body. The campus is located in the residential subdivision of Pohakupu on Oahu's Windward side, and serves students from the Kailua and Waimanalo communities.
We encourage college and career readiness with Career Pathways in Arts & Communications, Business, Health Services, and Industrial Engineering Technology. We also offer unique learning experiences in Hawaiian Language, Global Studies and Polynesian Music and Dance. In SY 06-07 KHS will offer Ethnic Studies as an elective to interested seniors.
Faculty and staff make a concerted effort to focus on Quality Student Support. We nurture students' social, emotional, and physical growth through an array of services that enhance learning; we also offer various co-curricular activities such as our award-winning Air Force JROTC, Marching Band, and an extensive athletic program that fields teams in 19 different sports. Foundation for Excellent Schools (FES) has joined with Kailua High to begin The Century Program (TCP). This program services 115 freshman and sophomores and aims to provide adult mentoring for students who seek guidance for their academic goals.
For many of our students, going to two year and four year colleges is a natural progression. We help students plan for post-high school pursuits and help students track their own progress towards attaining personal goals. To assist in facilitating the tracking, the career portfolio has been implemented since SY 04-05. Every department in KHS plans activities that will result in a culminating product for the portfolio. By the end of their senior year, each student will have a selfmade portfolio that reflects four years of goal setting and skills building for their career of choice.
