Kapolei High School serves Kapolei, Makakilo, Honokai Hale, and Barbers Point (Kalaeloa). The school is at the heart of the community, providing students, families, educators, and business partners a collaborative learning environment.
The vision for Kapolei High School is based on the recommendations of Breaking Ranks: Changing an American Institution, a report published by the National Association of Secondary School Principals. Using the report's key elements and a collaborative planning process, Kapolei High School has evolved into a studentcentered learning environment that focuses on the relationship between the school and the community. In 1996, the National Association of Secondary School Principals (NASSP), in partnership with the Carnegie Foundation, published a document titled, Breaking Ranks: Changing an American Institution. It recommended that the high school be restructured to respond to socio-economic changes in the world today. Kapolei High School was designed as a Breaking Ranks school, the school considers all of the recommendations for change to prepare Hawaii's youth for the 21st century. It is the first public high school with the following features:
Major partnerships with private and public sectors in the community
Unique facilities to emphasize the personalization of student's learning experiences
Fosters interdisciplinary team teaching, and the integration of adult education with the school facilities
Learning spaces and meeting areas readily accessible for community use, emphasizing the school's role as the heart of the community
Physical location of assistant principals and counselors in the buildings
A media center offering a variety of technological learning opportunities for students and the community
Kapolei High School is defined by 6 design principles: personalization, authentic and relevant learning, academic rigor, building community, career launching pad, and technology. The school highlights each of these principles to help students develop a strong academic foundation, gain a broad understanding of a career area, acquire industry-specific skills and build the essential values of integrity, dignity and caring.
