http://mauihigh.org/

 

Maui High School opened in 1913 in the community of Hamakuapoko, which is located in the northeast sector of Maui. Maui High School was the first academic high school on the island with an initial enrollment of sixteen students.  In 1972, the present Maui High School campus opened in Kahului, the heart of central Maui.  The school is now comprised of 12 major buildings, 36 portable classrooms, and several athletic facilities on 75 acres.  At the time, over 60% of the school’s student body traveled from the northeast sector, a predominantly agricultural and rural community.  Central Maui students were added to the school’s population at that time.

 

Maui High now serves the Central Maui community of Kahului, the business and transportation center for the island, as well as the South Maui communities of Kihei and Wailea, a newer, resort and tourism driven area of the island.  Approximately 60% of our student population resides in Kahului, while the remainder comes to us from Kihei and Wailea.  We also serve a number of students who attend Maui High on Geographic Exceptions to participate in some of our outstanding programs.

 

Maui High is a comprehensive high school, offering extensive programs for students in grades 9-12.  The school is a Smaller Learning Communities driven school, where students in grades 9 and 10 are part of learning teams of up to 150 students, sharing common faculty and aligned coursework.  Grades 11 and 12 are driven by Career Pathways where students select and complete a course of study within the school curriculum.

 

Maui High is accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges for a term ending in Spring 2014.

Maui County Public Schools

Kindergarten

Kindergarten provides young students with positive experiences that are important in establishing the foundation for future school attitudes and success. Kindergarten is mandatory in the state of Hawaii.

​​When do I enroll my child?

Children who are 5 years old by July 31 enroll in kindergarten for that school year. For example, children who are 5 years old by July 31, 2015 enroll in kindergarten for the 2015-16 school year. Children who turn 5 on August 1 or later enroll the following school year. For more information, please read our Frequently Asked Questions​​.​

On May 1, 2014, Gov. Abercrombie signed Senate Bill 2768 (Act 76), which makes kindergarten mandatory for children who will be at least 5 years of age on or before July 31 of the school year. Act 76 amends the Hawaii Revised Statutes, Section 302A-411 and 302A-1132, which lists exemptions from mandatory attendance.

Readiness for school

Parents and caregivers have the most influence in these key factors that enhance a child’s readiness for school. If you need assistance with these, please see Support for Parents:

  • Ongoing health care, which includes prevention and treatment
  • A safe, nurturing environment
  • Appropriate rest, nourishment and clothing
  • Opportunities for physical activity
  • Consistent love, affection and care
  • Positive self-concept
  • Appropriate social behavior
  • Autonomy
  • Reading, writing and viewing as natural daily activity
  • Language development
  • Development of thinking

Learner Outcomes

In Kindergarten, teachers begin evaluating students in terms of their success in demonstrating General Learner Outcomes​, behaviors that indicate kids are on the path to becoming engaged, lifelong learners.

Elementary School

As students move through grades 1-6, teachers observe their academic, social and emotional development and apply supports as needed. Assessments begin in grade 3.

Learner outcomes

Students are observed for behavior, work habits and effort to ensure that proper ethics are developed in concert with academic growth. Feedback from that is used to build student profiles in the Department’s Longitudinal Data System, which tracks their progress from one grade level to the next, and provides educators with information that ensures each student receives the supports they need.

Learning standards

Teachers have the flexibility to design lesson plans that incorporate the arts, social and cultural values, health and wellness principles and more. The consistent factor is reinforcing Common Core standards in the following subjects.

Math
Students are taught a solid foundation in whole numbers, addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, fraction and decimals. With each successing grade, students apply more demanding math concepts and procedures and move into practical applications of those core math principles.

English Language Arts
Students gain exposure to a range of texts and tasks, with increasing complexity through the grades. As they advance, they are challenged to identify items in text that indicate retention of knowledge, such as topics and structure of words and phrases. Each year, students should demonstrate increasing sophistication of language use, from vocabulary and syntax to organization of ideas. Beginning in grade 3, skills and understandings that are likely to require more attention as students advance include the ability to produce complete sentences (recognizing and correcting fragments and run-ons), correctly use frequently confused words (there vs. their), choosing words to convey ideas precisely and choosing punctuation for effect.

Assessments

  • The annual State Assessment of English Language Arts and math begins in Grade 3. An additional science assessment is given to 4th graders.
  • A sample of 4th graders are assessed in the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) in reading, writing, math and science.

Health and Wellness

All students have access to breakfast and lunch at Department schools, and qualifying students can receive free and reduced price lunch. All students have at least 20 minutes a day of supervised recess, and students are encouraged to participate in physical activity. Standards for physical education classes are:

  • a minimum of 45 minutes per week for grades 1-3
  • a minimum of 55 minutes per week for grades 4-5
  • a minimum of 107 minutes for grade 6

Middle School

What the average middle school student and their parents can expect: A continuation of the eduational pipeline, expanded testing designed to identify post-school skills and aspirations, more student life opportunities. /PublishingImages/4-PARENTSSTUDENTS/1-GRADELEVEL/MIddleC.jpg

Learning standards

Teachers have the flexibility to design lesson plans that incorporate the arts, social and cultural values, health and wellness principles and more. The consistent factor is reinforcing Common Core standards in the following subjects.

  • Proportional relationships
  • Rational numbers, expressions and linear equations
  • Systems of linear equations
  • Solving problems involving scale drawings and geometric constructions
  • Drawing inferences about populatinos based upon samples
  • Grasping functions and using them to describe quanititative relationships

English Language Arts
Building upon knowledge acquired in elementary school, students will begin to demonstrate evidence in text that supports analysis, how different forms (soliloquy, sonnnet) contribute to meaning, and how to write arguments using reasoning to support claims. Students will effectively engage in a range of collaborative discussions on topics, texts and issues. Literacy in history/social studies, science and technical subjects are pursued.

Assessments

  • All students take the annual State Assessment, and 8th graders take an additional state science assessment.
  • A sample of 8th graders are assessed in the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) in reading, writing, math and science.
  • All 8th graders take the ACT Explore exam to begin a review of the student’s future educational and career plans based on their own skills, interests and aspirations.

Health and wellness

All students have access to breakfast and lunch at Department schools, and qualifying students can receive free and reduced price lunch. All students have at least 20 minutes a day of supervised recess, and students are encouraged to participate in physical activity. For secondary grades 7-12, a minimum of 200 minutes per week are alloted for physical education.

High School

Approaching graduation, emphasis is placed on ensuring students have the skills and knowledge to succeed in college and career. Counselors are there to guide students with college prep and guidance. Opportunities in extracurricular activites, Learning Centers, student organizations and others greatly expand involvement.

Students will be able to present knowledge and ideas in a range of media (text, graphic, audio, visual, interactive). Literacy in history/social studies, science and technical subjects are pursued.

Assessments

  • Students in grade 11 take the Smarter Balanced​ exam in English language arts (ELA)/Literacy and Mathematics. In addition to providing data for schools, meeting or exceeding proficiency levels on the assessment will allow students to enroll in college credit-bearing courses​.
  • Students in grades 9-11 take various ACT exams to hone their future educational and career plans based on their own skills, interests and aspirations. For 11th graders, this is also a college entrance exam.
  • Students taking Expository Writing, Alebra I and II, Biology I and U.S. History will take an End of Course exam.
  • Students planning to attend college are strongly encouraged to take Advanced Placement exams for college credit, and may additionally want to take the SAT college entrance exam.
