Summary

Anuenue School is an alternative public school in Honolulu, HI, serving 431 students in grades PK–12 as part of the Hawaii Department of Education.

Latest figures show a 95.0% graduation rate in 2024–2025, up from 90.0% the year before, which is a clear strength. Chronic absenteeism stood at 23.0%, a slight improvement from 23.9%. On 2025–2026 state tests, 49% of students met proficiency in English language arts, 35% in math, and 44% in science — down from 53%, 40%, and 47% the prior year, though scores have fluctuated up and down over recent years rather than declining steadily. About 56.61% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch, down from 60%, and the student-teacher ratio was 13.9, stable in the 13.5–14 range. Per-student spending was $17,945 in 2018–2019, the latest figure available.

Compared with nearby alternatives, Anuenue serves a notably higher-need population: its 56.61% free/reduced lunch rate is well above Myron B. Thompson Academy - New Century PCS (12.9%), University Laboratory School (8%), and Hawaii Technology Academy - PCS (16.06%). Its graduation rate still outpaces all but University Laboratory. The biggest concern is attendance — 23.0% chronic absenteeism versus 4% at Myron B. Thompson and 14% at HTA, Ke Kula o Samuel M Kamakau - A Laboratory PCS, and University Laboratory. Science is a relative bright spot at 44%, second among schools with reported data and ahead of HTA (41%), Ke Kula (40%), and University Laboratory (34%); the science score for Hawaii School for the Deaf and Blind is suppressed by the state and should be treated as unknown. ELA and math sit middle of the pack.
