Waikoloa Elementary School has been in operation now for 12 years. The building of the school was a result of remarkable partnership efforts of the community, private business, and the Department of Education. The school was built to employ modern technology in its educational program, and its curriculum is designed to do this. The campus occupies 12 acres in an ethnically diverse community of about 7,000 adjacent to the Waikoloa resort. A second increment of the school, completed in 1996, added classrooms, a cafeteria, and playgrounds to the existing facilities.
In school year 2001, expansion included a new library as well as a nine classroom building boosting the student population to 540. The school enjoys active community involvement, with over 150 people serving as volunteers in the library, classrooms, or at special events. Curricular support via technology extends to all classrooms and offices. It includes electronic mail and potential sharing of files on the local area network and communication with peers and experts via electronic mail and information retrieval from the Internet via the wide area network.
Waikoloa Elementary School is operating under the new SCC, or School Community Council, as part as Act 51. Waikoloa Elementary has also developed a model Community Learning Center utilizing a 21st Century Federal Grant. The grant will be in its final year in the 06-07 school year, and with the exception of the after-school tutoring, all other programs and classes will continue as they are self sustaining. The school is the heart of this community!
