Summary
Kaimiloa Elementary School is a PK–6 school in Ewa Beach, HI, serving 677 students as part of the Hawaii Department of Education. In 2025–2026, it ranks 132nd out of 203 Hawaii elementary schools — 35th percentile, 2 stars. The school improved from 1-star results in 2015–2016 through 2018–2019 to a peak of 88th of 195 (55th percentile, 3 stars) in 2022–2023, but has since slipped to 50th percentile, 49th percentile, and now 35th percentile.
In 2025–2026, the school’s proficiency rates are 44% in English language arts, 42% in math, and 38% in science, below the nearby simple averages of 57.6%, 52.8%, and 51.5%. Its scores trail nearby higher performers such as Lt Col Horrace Meek Hickam Elementary School (80/81/88), Kapolei Elementary School (71/63/62), Hookele Elementary School (63/65/69), Keoneula Elementary School (68/58/62), and Holomua Elementary School (67/60/55). Keoneula Elementary School and Pohakea Elementary School outpace the school in all three subjects; Ewa Beach Elementary School is mixed. Chronic absenteeism improved from 24.3% to 21.0%, roughly the nearby average, but remains much higher than Lt Col Horrace Meek Hickam Elementary School (5%), Holomua Elementary School (11%), Hookele Elementary School (12%), and Keoneula Elementary School (16%). The school’s free/reduced lunch rate is 55.83%, above the nearby average of about 41.1%; however, Pohakea Elementary School has a higher rate (60.04%) and still outperforms the school in all three subjects. Staffing and spending do not show obvious disadvantages: its 2024–2025 student–teacher ratio is 14.4, slightly better than the nearby average of about 14.9, and its 2018–2019 per-student spending was $15,934, above the nearby average.
Student-group effectiveness is uneven and volatile. Special education results fell to the 1st percentile / 0 stars in 2025–2026, while English language learners were comparatively stronger at the 55th percentile / 3 stars, and low-income students were at the 33rd percentile / 2 stars. Overall, the school is at a crossroads: the biggest concerns are the recent ELA and math declines, persistently low science, and steep drops for some student groups. The strongest opportunities are improving absenteeism, a relatively favorable student–teacher ratio, and comparatively solid English learner performance.
