Kaneohe Elementary School is located on the Windward side of Oahu at the foot of the majestic Koolau Mountains overlooking Kaneohe Bay. The beautifully landscaped campus welcomes visitors to our school and serves as a visual reminder to our family of learners that Kaneohe Elementary is truly a wonderful school.
Kaneohe Elementary is unique because of the personal pride that everyone has for our school. Our school culture has made an impact in the quality of the relationship that exists between the child and those who play a significant role in his/her life. The positive self images that the child has are a direct result of the affirmations of their positive qualities that is reflected back to the individual daily at school, from adults, peers and siblings. High self-esteem translates into higher grades and better work habits.
Our Comprehensive Student Support System along with our counseling and drug education program has also helped us place emphasis on fostering resiliency in our children and on providing numerous opportunities for our youth to participate in positive and safe activities. Our Comprehensive Student Support Team received the Ola Pono Award in 2003. The Ola Pono Award honors individual who make meaningful contributions to the community by promoting safe, healthy, violence-free and drug-free lifestyles. Kaneohe Elementary was also recognized in 1995 by the U.S. Department of Education as a Safe and Drug Free School.
Our School Community Council members have committed themselves to learning more about student achievement and schoolbased budgeting, and about supporting school priorities that promote student learning. Community / Business Partnerships such as the Ohana [Parent / Staff Organization], Military Partnership with the Navy, Carpenters' Apprentice Program, Charitable Ventures Recycling, Castle Alumni Association and a recycling program with Ruby Tuesdays provide our school with additional resources [manpower and funds] to meet the demands not addressed through state funding.
Our teaching staff is committed to providing students with challenging, integrated and relevant learning experiences that result in high student achievement. We set high expectations and provide all students with challenging curricula and effective teaching and assessment practices that elevate the bar of achievement. And while NCLB presents challenges to our school, we are committed to educating the whole child and providing them with a well-rounded education that enables them to be productive citizens in our global society. Our children are our pride and joy, and we dedicate our lives in the hope that future generations might enjoy a better quality of life.
