Hakipuu Academy

Public, Charter Grades 5-12

Summary

Hakipuu Academy is a public charter high school located in Kaneohe, Hawaii, serving grades 5-12 with a total enrollment of 49 students. The school is part of the Hawaii Department of Education district, which is ranked 1 out of 1 in the state and rated 5 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Hakipuu Academy faces significant challenges in student academic performance, as evidenced by its low proficiency rates in Smarter Balanced Assessments for English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics, ranging from 0% to 32.14% proficient or better across all grades. The school's proficiency rates are significantly lower than the state averages and the nearby schools, such as Aiea High School, President William McKinley High School, and Moanalua High School. Additionally, Hakipuu Academy's four-year graduation rate for the 2023-2024 school year is 86.6%, which is lower than the state average and several nearby high schools.

However, Hakipuu Academy's student-teacher ratio is relatively low, ranging from 8.1 to 11.2 over the past three school years, which is lower than the nearby public high schools. The school also has a significantly higher percentage of Pacific Islander students (53.06% in 2022-2023) compared to the nearby public high schools, and the school's performance for Pacific Islander students is a standout, with a ranking of 3 out of 61 Hawaii high schools for this subgroup in the 2023-2024 school year.
