    This is not for the waipahu campus but for the Ewa Beach (Elementary campus)…read more It's our son's first year with HTA as a kindergartner and we are at the end of the year so we definitely experience the whole school year with HTA. I want to start off with how happy we are that our son attends HTA. It was a great choice and big win. We have older children who go to multiple schools and HTA by far has won us over. The atmosphere and the attention that our son received in school is by far the greatest. The one on one with the student and teacher ratio works out great our kindergartener has excelled in so many ways. He's about to move on to first grade and he already can read books and tell time not only digital time but the wall clock which I remember only learning in the 3rd grade back in the day. He is also able to identify the currency (worth of each coin and what each coin is called) We do noticed a BIG difference in our son's confidence level and not being afraid to speak up and present his animal research to his fellow classmates. The teachers and staff are all so supportive and they are always so kind. They know every child just about by name which is great because they can identify each child's presence which is valuable and also for safety reasons. They also address any concerns or issues right away with the child and parents/ guardians. HTA has great staff who is able to provide support to the children and parents/ guardians. We are thankful that we are able to join our son on his class Field Studies. It is a true blessing to be able to have this experience to be able to understand what our child is learning on a daily basis. They have weekly agendas which keeps us organized and on schedule. We hope you enjoyed our first year experience review with HTA. Having a kind and supportive team makes a GREAT difference! So be nice to the staff members they deserve the Best!!

    They were a good advanced school for my children and now at the now schools they are learning above…read morethere own grade and getting really good grades so thanks to this school for all that help

    Today is the first day of school, so I thought it would be an appropriate day to review the school…read more My son attended this school last year, and I have just dropped him off for the beginning of his second year. He was nervous about new teachers and classmates (as all kids should be) but happy to go back. This is a big deal because he has never attended any school for two years in a row. We have managed to move every year of his school life (Thank you, Army!) so he was worried that he would not want to go back. I give the school 3 stars because it is just A-OK. The school honestly tries, just not quite hard enough. My biggest concern with the school is not the academics, but the lack of community. As a parent I do not feel particularly welcomed, and as a neighbor I feel absolutely shut out. The best way to improve the school would be to have better involvement with the neighborhoods around it. Open houses, movie nights, gatherings to show off the talents of the children. These things do happen, but are not readily advertised and are not open to the true public. The best way to build a better school is through parental involvement. Bring the parents in and everyone wins.

    Teachers are one of the hardest workers you rarely thank…read more My kid attends school here and the teachers really care. I get updates via the seesaw app (available on the apple and google store. Why do I feel like an infomercial? ) I swear teachers never sleep, cause updates are between 10pm and 5am. Thank a teacher cause they help shape the future better then some parents. After reading this, I should attend the upcoming PTA meeting. Weekly as parents, our son get a homework assignment sheets. For us Navy folk, very similar to the POW for homework. There is also a monthly reminder/upcoming events sheet. I like this idea cause it helps me plan for events I would like to attend, in this case the last Ohana Fair. This event is an annual fair held on school grounds. It's a great time for kids and for parents to socialize with other parents. The teachers are out and about but mostly concentrating on running the booth. You don't come here for the food, you come for the stories and smiles. TIP: If you go to the annual Fair, parking is limited. Walk or ride a bike to the place. And if you drive, slow down for the small keikis because we know they like to run out between parked cars. Thank a teacher except the ones that teach CORE math?!?!? They confuse the hell out of me. 2+2=4 people!! Lastly if a teacher is reading this, thank you and stop looking for grammar errors. M

    We very much love this school! Faculties at this school provides excellent communication, and…read moreamazing team work to provide families the utmost convenience experience. Although parking lot is one-way, it provides good (and safer) traffic flow and less school congestion. A/C buildings (except cafeteria), ample industrial bike racks in different areas, water fountain with bottle-filling station, all aspects of the school are very clean and well-maintained. I have zero complaints about their education system either. My son hasn't struggled (to the point of exhaustion) and fight me on homework. His teacher is always available to provide extra help should he need it. Lots of field trips allows students to gain knowledge outside of school property and create more fun memories. Very, VERY happy parent here! Mahalo to all faculties of this school for always providing excellency!
