The open house events are for members of the public to tour the three-story campus and learn about the school’s unique programs, including project-based learning.

The school term will run from Aug. 5, 2024, to May 30, 2025.

Enrollment applications will be available beginning March 1, at informational sessions or online at the Kīhei Charter School website. Applications are also available at the school’s office. Information sessions will be for all grade K-12 levels.

Completed applications must be turned in to the school office or be mailed to the Kīhei Charter School at P.O. Box 1098, Kīhei 96753 with a postmark no later than Sunday, March 31. Applications make students eligible for the first lottery. No email or fax applications are accepted.

Completed applications will be entered into the school application lottery. The lottery method for selecting new students is required for all Hawaiʻi charter schools to ensure fairness for all applicants. Additionally, applications usually exceed the school’s student capacity.
