Practically lived here for weeks doing projects everyday in this building. So I have noticed a lot…read moreof things to love and sadly find something I dislike about it. What I love: The art galleries: The smaller one changes almost every week. Sometimes I'll pass by or drop in when I have time to really look at what's in there. The bigger one I believe is for MFA students or bigger artwork. It's A/C and quiet in there. Perfect art viewing environment! The classrooms: I haven't been to many, but I grew very familiar with the Photo Lab and Digital Imaging Lab. The Photo lab is of course filled with pictures, by students and Professor Stan. The photography ranges from projects to even random funny ones. The labbies are also very helpful and chill. The Digital Imaging lab is lit just right for the working environment. It's a good space in general with an inflatable moose head on the wall. Everyday's a surprise: sometimes I'll find some weird or funny things posted on the walls of this building. I saw a funny but threatening letter on a locker once, someone stole the girl's lock and she was very mad but entertaining. Even the restroom stalls have some interesting art or writing. And there was one semester where they had built a cardboard castle in the seating area on the first floor--what a great day that was to play in it! Also, I can't forget their "Free Store" by the office. You'll find random things just out there for the taking. Some good stuff, really. AND there's Papa Lucks across the way. For the long work days, I could stop by here for a caffeine fix or some food. What I dislike: The only thing I really don't like are the restrooms. You'd think that the girls' room would be clean at least, but no..unfortunately a lot of the times they are not. It's gross and embarrassing sometimes. Most of the doors don't even lock... But I still love this building. Despite some stress from projects here, I feel very at home.

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!

Our son came from Ka Waihona o Ka Na'auao in Nanakuli and was a founding student at DreamHouse in…read more6th Grade. DreamHouse was a new PCS (Public Charter School). DreamHouse focuses on leadership and identity development, place-based learning, cultural and community engagement, and other approaches that we value. The school was completely bootstrapped for the first few years. After a short time, DreamHouse has secured two fixed property campuses, one for Middle School and one for High School. We have been listening carefully to our son over the years. He just completed 11th Grade and will be part of the first graduating class. He and his classmates have been learning and navigating the constant changes alongside the school community. This past year, everything began to crystallize with the opening of DreamHouse Center (the new high school). Our son has continued to grow and thrive. He attributes a great deal of his development to the Coaches (Teachers/Instructional Leaders) of DreamHouse. He has largely been happy with the school and feels highly supported. There is a great deal of freedom, which also comes with high expectations of their character and leadership development. DreamHouse is not a school designed to be an academic powerhouse or a college prep academy. It was designed to produce quality human beings and community leaders (wherever they go) and leave positive footprints in the world they will explore and touch. What's most impressive is that he has had a well-rounded experiential education and developed social and emotional fluency that we believe is critical for success in life. In addition, his confidence grows each year as a result of his increasing competence in assessing situations, thinking critically, solving problems, and learning. As parents, we have been involved with the school since long before the Charter was granted, and our son joined the inaugural class. If we had any doubts, we would have moved him out a long time ago. He's developed strong and meaningful relationships, and so have we. I'll conclude by saying that while DreamHouse is open to everyone, it is not for everyone (students or families). If you are seeking a traditional school, look elsewhere. DreamHouse is a unique environment and culture. If you're willing to participate fully in an innovative and progressive environment focused on immersive development, please visit the school, experience the environment, and engage the Coaches and school leaders in person. Then, decide for yourself and your family. Please send me any questions, I'm always happy to help. Aloha!

They do not want to go…read moreto any other school and have grown tremendously and are developing into very fine and intelligent student leaders. The coaches are supportive and guide the student leaders to be independent thinkers and search for solutions themselves. This may be challenging for some but it shows them how higher education institutions teach. DH PCS is training student leaders to be individual learners who seek out the information for themselves. However, there are numerous opportunities for them to obtain help if needed. Innovative teaching with respect and nurturing is what I like the most about DH PCS. My youngest will be starting 6th grade and I'm positive that he will excel there.

To my information she calls boys puppydogs because of their energy, she has obvious favoritism, and she is very sexist towards males for no reason she has the mental compacity of a child and locks her students out her room when they slightly do something wrong. She doesn't even teach but makes her students read a book and watch a video to write Cornell notes, and when the wind is strong and the door blows open when someone opens it cause its stronger than a 300 ton truck coming at you, another teacher in specifics outs you in-front of the whole period shaming you and excluding you from activities because they never finish their work. One of the few male teachers at highlands makes their clubs students do improv. work last minute and gets mad at them when they do it last minute, another teacher had blatant favoritism, saying that an assignment was easy and shaming that they didn't finish it in a time period she thought was enough, she growls at the students time to time as-well. Never sending another child here again !!

There's designated areas if you want to park and walk your child to their classrooms. The parking staff is very attentive. Other than picking up the kids and dropping off the kids I'm usually here for any little type of assembly or performance the kids have the only downfall to this school is the parking. For a small school there are lots of parents. The latest activity that I attended here at the school was mayday. Parking was chaotic I went super early to make sure I got a parking spot and walked home. Upon walking back I noticed that the police were there to give tickets. The school however did make an announcement over the PA system about moving or you would be ticketed if parking in any unmarked parking stall. I understand you have to move but for may day I don't understand why the police were there. It was a day to enjoy the kids but at the same time now you have to worry about your car. There was some opening on the field where they should utilize for parking so maybe in the future that should happen.

Another really cool notable thing offered at Waianae HS is a clinic on-campus run by the Waianae Comprehensive Health Services (something along those lines, haha) and it operates like an urgent care for students and families in the area. They can prescribe medicationa, be seen by a nurse practitioner, etc. It isnt a replacement for the schools health office of nurse but its rather an addition in case of serious medical emergencies.
