Summary

Mililani Mauka Elementary School is a PK–5 public school in Mililani, HI, serving 623 students as part of the Hawaii Department of Education, and it stands out as one of the stronger and larger elementary schools in its local area. For 2025–2026 it ranked #4 of 203 Hawaii elementary schools (98th percentile, 5 stars), and it has held a top-10 statewide spot and a 5-star rating in every year listed from 2015–2016 through 2025–2026, with finishes between #3 and #10. That long run matters more than any single good year — this is a school that has performed at a high level for a decade.

Compared with nearby schools, only Mililani Ike Elementary School clearly outranks it. Mililani Mauka is #4 statewide, while the next-closest local schools are far behind: Kanoelani Elementary School at #27, Kipapa Elementary School at #36, Helemano Elementary School at #38, Mililani Waena Elementary School at #55, Mililani Uka Elementary School at #57, and Kaala Elementary School at #119. In 2025–2026 test proficiency, students scored 79% in English Language Arts, 82% in Math, and 86% in Science — roughly 17 to 25 points above the nearby peer average of about 62%, 63%, and 61%. Science improved from 77% the year before, while ELA slipped slightly from 82%.

Attendance and school context help tell the story. Chronic absenteeism was 8.0% in 2024–2025, down from 10.8%, and less than half the nearby median of about 18%. The free/reduced lunch rate is 17.01%, second lowest locally after Mililani Ike, and the school's Low Socio Economic Status students ranked 3 of 202 (99th percentile) in 2025–2026. Notably, its student-teacher ratio of 14.4 is slightly above the nearby median of about 13.1, and per-student spending of $16,448 is near the local median, so results don't appear to come from smaller classes or extra funding. Two areas worth watching: Special Education ranked 38 of 155 (75th percentile), down from the 90th–92nd percentile in prior years, and Pacific Islander students ranked 24 of 115 (79th percentile), down from the 94th percentile — still above average, but behind the school's otherwise exceptional profile.

What people are saying

by a parent
Thursday, May 13, 2010

I am so pleased with the education and special services my children are receiving at this school. After changing from a small, private school out of state, I am shocked at the kind of resources available to the students. They have several resource teachers for library, research, computers, art, music, writing, science and more. Kids who need extra help receive it, whether it be speech therapy, reading tutoring, or a little extra challenge from the GT Program (Gifted and Talented). This school also focuses on character building and personal responsibility. The GLO standards let you know exactly what the children will be graded on and they have several opportunities to practice and receive feedback before receiving final grades each quarter. There are about 7 classes per grade with an average of 21 students per class. I think that is a decent class size at any school and from what I've seen the teachers manage the students very well with the classrooms being quiet and orderly. I do feel that the school could benefit from more playground equipment and an "anti-bullying" program. There seems to be a lot of teasing which is not explicitly racist, however it seems to target Caucasians. Close Quote
