They never teach us anything and just rely on the packet to do their work. One teacher that i will not name made us sort coffee beans instead of working. We wasted 30 mins to sort the teachers coffee beans and got homework in return. The ukulele teacher was amazing and is the only reason this review is 2 stars instead of one.

The counselor Ms Kelly when I told her something EXAGGERATED my story and told my family, what then happened after that is I was isolated, and screamed at, and hated for YEARS, the abuse got worse because of ONE exaggeration, I do believe some of my mental health issues that started during that time are entirely her fault because they developed do to what happened because she told my family what I said. And in 5th grade I had Mrs Davis (retired), she was kind, I really did like her, but truly didn't understand what I was experiencing at home. My mom had been in jail and I was still being abused harshly at home and bullied at school, I would break down in class all the time because I was so tired and stressed and had so many problems that I couldn't handle it enough to focus or work, for this I wasn't given much slack, which made my life miserable at that time. My overall review of Kula school is that it was okay, just okay.

All of my children have gone through this school; my third is currently in third grade. The staff…read moreis caring and friendly. The teachers are intelligent, compassionate, and loving beyond belief. They are sometimes overloaded with many more children than they should have, and yet these teachers rise above everything and shine. Yet often the numbers are perfect and everyone always gets the attention they need, regardless of the degree of challenge to the tireless teachers. I am a substitute teacher and I stand in total honor of the daily educators here. Patient, fair, loving, and real. I can't recommended Pukalani school enough. We are so grateful to have been part of this community!

In response to the angry individual claiming that he had to pay for the ACADEMY...uh...did you not…read moreread the packet you got when you applied? Private schools mean you PAY for lil' junior's education. So...if you are unhappy, by all means there are public schools who, since I teach at them I can say with complete certainty, will take EVERY kind of student. If you desire a specified educational experience- which, since I am currently enjoying the second of my three children at Carden for middle school, I can also say with first-hand experience - then you pay for it. Fish or cut bait. This school is loving, caring, kind, nurturing, and everything you pay for. Sorry some people want something for nothing. Public schools have been fine for my kids; Carden is a gift.

My son has told me that a staff member, Mrs. Campbell, grabbed him by the arm to slow down, and his friends verified this happened. They have shown me pictures on their phones of the red marks she left on his upper arm. Regardless of him running, she shouldn't have laid a hand on my son. They all said she can be really mean at times and overly aggressive. I was really upset and was going to file a complaint, but my son didn't want any unwanted attention. He will be going to Seabury Hall next year with his friends. He said it wasn't a big deal, but I think it is.

I'm in 6th grade at Kalama, and there are things about the school that don't feel right to me…read more There are a lot of fights, and it seems like they don't always get handled the way they should. That makes it hard to feel safe and focus during the day. I've also noticed moments where certain adults or situations make students feel uncomfortable, like too much staring or not respecting personal space. On top of that, most kids don't feel comfortable talking to adults about what's going on, which makes it even harder for problems to get fixed. I don't know everything for sure, but I know how it feels, and it's something that should be taken seriously. Students should feel safe, respected, and able to speak up if something feels off.

I go to kalama and the 6th grade teachers are great, some of the best teachers I've ever had. but…read morethere is one teacher Mr. Diegez, he is the 6th grade P.E teacher, and he has made many girls uncomfortable including myself. He looks at the girls, their buts, and chests and, he where's sunglasses inside so don't know what hes looking at. I have reported him before but nothing was done, they said they would follow up with me and they never did. Now I will tell you story's from my class. In my class the boys seemed to be his favorite, and to him it seemed like they did nothing wrong. For one instance there was a kid who told one of my friends he was going to deport her back to Jamaica and another girl to go back to Africa. We told him and he said let it go ,and never talked to the boy, or anyone not staff not his parents not anyone. The boys in that class, got the girls stuff wet one time and he did not seem to care except for, when a girl who stuff had gotten wet she ran down to a security person and told her what happed. Auntie Jessie was the security guard that she told, and she came up and asked what had happend and. Mr.deigez stared to get mad at the boys, but the second she left he asked the girls why we always have to bicker with the boys, and to let it go and that we were overreacting. There was one more time were one girl had hit another and she was crying and we had told Mr. Diegez that she was slapped and he didnt call anyone so no one knows that she was slapped except for the people in the class. I have talked to many girls in his class that have similar things going on. He has many reports made against him and not one has been taken seriously. I dont care who dosent belive me but i do care that i dont want this to happen to any other girl in his class. That's all. DONT ENROLL UR GIRL FOR 6TH GRADE THEY WILL HAVE THIS CREEPO THEACHER WHO WILL LOOK AT THEM JUST WAIT TILL 7TH GRADE!!!!!
