Olomana School is Hawaii's largest alternative school located in Kailua on the grounds of the Hawaii Youth Correction Facility. The school is responsible for providing educational programs for youth atrisk between 12 and 20 years old. Olomana School is actually a system of six satellite campuses serving adolescents who exhibit a broad range of social alienation. The most severely alienated youth are educated at the Hawaii Youth Correctional Facility (HYCF) where the faculty serves a growing population of serious offenders at the Secure Custody Facility (SCF).
Juveniles who have committed less serious offenses receive educational services at two separate sites also located on the grounds HYCF. Olomana Youth Center (OYC) serves alienated youth from secondary schools in the Windward District. These students meet at least two criteria of the Comprehensive School Alienation (CSAP) profile. The majority of youth at Olomana Youth Center need to mitigate school failure and to recoup their credits to earn a high school diploma. Programs such as Hale Kipa and Julia House also use Olomana Youth Center as a transition site for students exiting HYCF. Finally, Olomana maintains educational programs at the secure and open units at the Detention Home (DH) on Alder Street in downtown Honolulu.
