I have mixed feelings about friendship school in Ewa Beach. My kids went there years ago. The good…read morethings I remember are good, but the bad things i remember are ugly. These are some of the things that i will never forget, but i have forgiven and moved on from Frist I would say that the principal called me into her office and lectured me about a conversation over payment that i had with her spoiled staff. She was extremely rude and would not hear myside of the argument. I am not a student but a grown man. Be respectful. There also was a time that it was raining. I was with my son who had autism and as we were walking inside the school building, me and my son fell hard to the ground due to a wet area. There was no wet floor signs. I was bleeding so was my son, just a little. We were both ok overall. But i remember no one helped us. People saw it and no one said a word. I was a few steps from the front office and i heard someone tell the front desk staff about the incident, yet no one from the staff made any effort to check on us. There office was literally steps away. As we got up and finished walking my daughter to class, i saw someone put up the wet floor sign. I really felt like an outcast that day but it gets worse. At their graduation ceremonies, you will really feel like an outcast if either you don't attend their church or not Hawaiian. I remember laud applauses for most of the local kids at the gradation, but my kids turn came, all the other parents where silent. This happened year after year. By the third year, I'm screaming at the top of my lungs. How can you treat my kids this way? Don't you know things like this stick in their heads for year and years There was an older coaches worked there. He send letters to my daughters and i guess, most the students who were on summer break. I always felt a little uncomfortable having letters go to my 10-year-old. Something just felt off. I mean a least announce that you will be sending out stay well letters to all the kids in the summer. I did not give her any of the letters My other daughter was struggling in 1st grade in all subjects. I met with the teacher and she told me that there is one child who is exceling and doing well who sits close to me daughter. She ask me if I wanted that child to help my daughter during school hour in class. i asked her why would she consider a young kid teaching another kid? I thought that was the teachers job? Fastforward my daughter now is at the top of her class in another school. In my opinion, only certain students are going to receive the "attention" they need to keep up with the class, let alone excel. Everything I'm saying is the truth I forgive you......but I'm glad we moved on for my kids' sake.

Theres a reason for each star taken off... first of all, the track system! Seems like there are so…read moremany breaks! As soon as they got off Thanksgiving break, two weeks later there's another 3wk break... goodness! Although they really don't have a summer, for every 8wks of school you have 3wks of break and then some. The second star was taken off because the amount of fundraising and money it takes to maintain and run this school. I can see that they do take pride in their school and community but it's crazy! From the time school started up to the Xmas break there have already been about 5 fundraisers. Ya, they got a new playground, that did take the first half of the school year to complete (half of it anyways) and sure the school looks in top shape condition, aside the fact that my sons class room a/c was broken for a month or more... As for the good things about this school, education and teachers. My sons teacher, Ms Pascual is Great! So patient, understanding, holds the classroom attention very Well and she is so kind and generous =) I have gone to this school the later part of my elementary years and I enjoyed it. The vice principal and counselor are from Campbell (where I went to high school) and they are also great, so I am glad my son is in this school. I'm sure kapolei has high standards for their students compared to a lot of other elementary schools on the island.

2 stars is for the 1 teacher, VP and counselor that actually tried to help my child's future…read more I wouldn't recommend this school. I highly recommend sending your child to another elementary school near by or somewhere else but here.

Major Jeffrey Owens is an awesome trainer because he is able to bring his vast 30+ years of law…read moreenforcement experience here in Hawaii to his classes. Major Owens has a great sense of humor and is very "people-person" oriented in his presentations. Major Owens spends time creating presentations that focus on the "real-world" challenges facing those in the Security Services profession. Major Owens demonstrates the ability to use the local culture that he grew up with (Kailua High School) to weave a tapestry of useful stories that get right to the point. Major Owens demonstrates a sense of proper decorum when necessary and offers practical life lessons that are easily applicable to not only those in the Security Services profession, but to anyone who is placed in situations where there is a potential for interpersonal conflicts. I truly benefitted from taking Major Owens class. Mahalo Major Jeffrey Owens for your continued valuable service to our community.

Hawaii Tokai International College is great. Accredited by the highest association, the total cost…read moreof going to Hawaii Tokai is lower than going to a community college, 4-year public, or 4-year private college or university in Hawaii. They have the highest graduation rates with the highest transfer rate to colleges and universities in all of the Hawaiian Islands. The campus is located in Kapolei in a beautiful setting next to the University of Hawaii at West Oahu. There's a synergy between the two campuses and they share resources with one another. If you are looking for a top quality college that prides itself on a focus on Asian-related areas of education as well as general education, this is the place for you!

We came here for a judo clinic. The campus is very clean and cozy. It's not very big for a college…read morecampus, but I like the idea of it being a very intimate atmosphere where you could get to know a lot of people because it's very small. It's very close to the KROC Center, about 1 min,where there are a lot of activities. It's also very close to the Ka Makana Ali Mall, about 5 mins.

Ok so... I didn't get a chance to check in yesterday but... this place had a the Onizuka Day Event…read more& it's was REALLY FUN! I'm glad they hosted it this year. Last year it was at Pearl Harbor and because of their restrictions with bags & whatnot, a lot of families were having hard time getting in. Especially if you had a baby. That's ANOTHER long story of mines. But back to UH WEST... they had a really good set up right in their open courtyard area. It was in the middle of the building and so it made the workshops & booths coincide with each other. There was a lot of activities for keiki and parents. They offered a list of things to register for, as well as, have booths with additional educational activities. I hope they host again next year. Our family had Konane workshop. (Hawaiian Checkers) and made home made stylus and voted for Hawaiian Electrics polls. There were other activities and I wish we had chance to do it all but maybe next year. So THANK YOU UH WEST OAHU FOR HOSTING SUCH A FUN EVENT FOR THE FAMILIES. We really enjoyed it! Thank you Onizuka Day for making such event happen. Thank you all for reading & MALAMA PONO...

Never thought I would be on a college campus again, but here I am at the University of Hawaii -…read moreWest Oahu for the 3rd time in my life. The most recent experience lasted about 3 1/2 hours. I was here because of an impromptu trip to the west side of the island. It was the last day of my staycation in November 2021 and my friend needed to attend class on campus. After lunch and ice cream at the Ewa Pointe shopping center, we arrived here at the University of Hawaii - West Oahu campus around 1:45pm for a 2pm lecture. It was a nice day out, but the campus itself was very eerie and quiet. While I am not currently a student here, it would be neat to come here, but the travel time would be crazy from Kaimuki. With that said, I was on campus for about 3 1/2 hours hanging out and waiting for my friend. I gave myself a little tour of the campus, which was surprisingly small enough to get anywhere within 5-10 minutes on foot. The campus itself was clean and quite immaculate actually. Just quiet with only a few students walking around to get to where they needed to go. For the most part though, being on the campus of the University of Hawaii - West Oahu reminded me of campus life 20 some years ago while I was going thru college life at the University of Hawaii - Manoa. Brings back memories of an era long gone by. The overall experience here at the University of Hawaii - West Oahu campus was very nice and serene. Very clean too. I enjoyed myself, even though I was by myself for an extended period of time. It feels like it's practically brand new, but I know it's been a few years since the campus was officially built. The University of Hawaii - West Oahu functions like a community college in a sense while providing degree programs to those who need them. They offer a limited areas of knowledge groups, but cover the all the in demand subject areas are there as well as interesting subject areas like creative media and travel & hospitality management, among others. Spending 3 1/2 hours here was nice and therapeutic. Not so much for my spirit, but to recapture my youth. The campus consists of an admin building, a maintenance building, and the rest are classrooms and lecture halls. It's quite tiny actually. Well groomed and spacious to conduct classes outside, if you wanted to. Applying for admission into UH-West Oahu is easy. Just visit their website and take a look as to how to get in and let your college career soar. I'm sure it's money well spent. If you want to further your education but don't want to venture to town and Manoa, consider coming here for your academic collegiate needs. Tuition wise, it's higher than when I went to school, but it's worth the price of admission.The University of Hawaii - West Oahu is located at 91-1001 Farrington Hwy in Kapolei on the island of Oahu. The small campus is accessible by car and public transportation, if you choose to. There's a generous portion of parking space here. I believe bus route 40 passes by here and it stops right in front of the campus. It was neat to have the buildings named after the alphabet. Remind me of high school too. I enjoyed my time here and hope you will too. It's definitely a nice campus. It just seems like it's in the middle of nowhere, not attached to anything. It's a cool place to be. Whether you are striving for academic excellence or just striving to get that college degree, the University of Hawaii - West Oahu has got you covered. 5.0 stars for the overall experience. Support local! A+

I signed up for an ACLS renewal class in February with FEARLESS CPR and it was a great choice. This…read moreclass was offered close to home (such a win for me) and at a reasonable price. I went in with prior knowledge but I left with an increase understanding of ACLS. The class was nice and comfortable. Our instructor Pua allowed us to learn at our own pace while being patient with the group. She was attentive and down to earth. Even got to learn about her roles and job in the medical field. We did lots of hands on work. We were able to ask questions throughout the course. We felt confident while learning. We also had some fun! I would definetly come back and renew my course again and taking my BLS renewal course as well. Thanks so much FEARLESS CPR!
