Congratulations to Alakaʻi O Kauaʻi, the state’s newest public charter school that opened its doors today, Wednesday, August 29, 2018, welcoming 165 students. The school opening was delayed a day due to the heavy rainfall making the road leading to their campus impassable. Today students entered the project-based school eager to learn. Alakaʻi O Kauaʻi currently serves students in kindergarten through fifth grade but eventually plans to expand to serve students through the eighth grade.
The mission of Alakaʻi O Kauaʻi is to provide a progressive, innovative curriculum that prepares students for the future. School leaders are committed to interdisciplinary instruction with an equal emphasis on teaching the whole child academically, socially, and emotionally. The campus stretches over several lush acres in Kahili Mountain Park in Kōloa and includes school buildings and a gymnasium.
The school is still accepting applications. To learn more about Alakaʻi O Kauaʻi, visit their website at http://www.alakaiokauai.org/
