ZIP code 96822 in Honolulu is home to seven schools — three elementary schools, one middle school, two high schools, and one K–12 alternative school — all part of the Hawaii Department of Education, serving roughly 3,671 students from preschool through grade 12.
The academic leaders are the two elementary schools. Noelani Elementary School ranks 7th of 203 elementary schools statewide (97th percentile, 5 stars), with 78% proficient in ELA and 83% in science. Manoa Elementary School ranks 9th of 203 (96th percentile, 5 stars), with 74% in ELA and 78% in math, and it has the lowest chronic absenteeism in the group at 6%. Among older grades, President Theodore Roosevelt High School is the strongest traditional high school, ranking 7th of 65 with an 89th percentile rank, 5 stars, and a 92% graduation rate, though its math proficiency is 36%. Robert Louis Stevenson Middle School ranks 14th of 85 (84th percentile, 4 stars) while serving the group's highest free/reduced-lunch share, 43.43%.
Outcomes are more mixed at the remaining schools. University Laboratory School posts a 100% graduation rate and the lowest free/reduced-lunch rate (8%), but its test scores fell sharply from the prior year. Voyager - A Public Charter School dropped to 2 stars (106th of 203, 48th percentile) with declines in all subjects. Halau Ku Mana - A New Century PCS ranks 61st of 65 (6th percentile, 0 stars), with 33% chronic absenteeism and 10% math proficiency — yet it also reports a 92% graduation rate. One clear pattern: math proficiency in the elementary schools (73–78%) is far above the high schools (10–36%).
