Laupahoehoe Community Public Charter School officially converted to a charter school on July 1, 2012. Our vision is "Families, staff and community working together to graduate successful learners who are job, school, and life-ready."
Our school is where:
• Our community values of aloha and respect for diversity are the defining characteristics.
• Hands-on, project-based learning coupled with rigorous academic work have meaningful consequences for our local and global community.
• Partnerships offer students unique learning and service opportunities.
• Individual responsibility and institutional accountability are the norm.
• Students observe adults learning and developing diverse academic and extracurricular opportunities, support "whole person" growth and fuel students' natural love of learning.
• Each student is known and appreciated for their individual capabilities and decisions are evidence-based and transparent.
• Parents and community members are welcome on campus and meaningfully involved in school governance and other activities.
