Families have a choice of 29 KS preschool sites statewide that offer Hawaiian culture-based learning for three- and four-year-olds. Each classroom has a qualified teacher and teaching assistant with an adult-to-child ratio of 1:10 and programming that includes in-person and digital learning.

As the largest private preschool provider in the state, more than 1,600 keiki are served through the School’s preschools annually.

“We understand the tremendous kuleana our ʻohana are facing today when making decisions for their child’s learning,” Nā Kula Kamaliʻi Poʻo Kula Shelli Kim said. “Our commitment to the safety and well-being of every keiki is of utmost importance and we’ve taken steps to provide safety protocols to ensure that our littlest learners are safe and have access to a quality preschool education whether they are engaged through in-person or digital learning.”
