Summary:
ZIP code 96703 in Anahola, Hawaii contains just one school in this data set: Kanuikapono - PCS, an alternative public school serving grades K–12 with 191 students, part of the Hawaii Department of Education. Because it is the only school listed for the area, there is nothing else in the ZIP to compare it against — the area summary counts 1 total school, with 0 elementary, 0 middle, 0 high, and 1 alternative. That does not mean K–12 grades are absent; it means the single school here is classified as alternative while covering the full grade range.
Several numbers stand out for families. The reported graduation rate is 83.3% for 2023–2024, leaving about 16.7% of that reported cohort not graduating — though with a school this small, one or two students can shift the rate noticeably. Chronic absenteeism is very low at 1.0% for 2024–2025, and the student-teacher ratio of 7.9 suggests small classes (roughly 24 teachers for 191 students). At the same time, 70.68% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch, indicating substantial economic need. Per-student spending is listed at $11,474, but that figure is from 2018–2019 and may not reflect current funding.
Test proficiency is low and moved down in every tested subject. ELA fell from 16% in 2024–2025 to 11% in 2025–2026, Math from 10% to 7%, and Science from 14% to 12%. Science was the highest-proficiency subject in both years and Math the lowest. ELA and Math use Smarter Balanced Assessments while Science uses HSA, so comparing across subjects is less reliable than comparing the same subject year to year. All scores are for All Grades, blending elementary, middle, and high school performance, and the data includes no state averages, so it is not possible to say how this school compares with Hawaii overall.
