Mission

'IOLANI SCHOOL IS A COLLEGE-PREP SCHOOL FOR GRADES K-12 WHOSE MISSION IS TO DEVELOP EDUCATED, WELL-ROUNDED INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE WELL PREPARED FOR COLLEGE.

About

'IOLANI WAS FOUNDED IN 1863 AFTER KING KAMEHAMEHA IV AND QUEEN EMMA SET OUT TO ESTABLISH AN ANGLICAN CHURCH IN HAWAII. THE SCHOOL IS ROOTED IN THREE SMALL SCHOOLS - A LAHAINA SCHOOL ON THE ISLAND OF MAUI, ST. ALBAN'S COLLEGE AND 'IOLANI COLLEGE - FORMED DURING HAWAII'S MONARCHY DAYS. THE SCHOOL'S CAMPUS WAS ONCE LOCATED ON THE GROUNDS OF ST. ANDREW'S CATHEDRAL, MOVED TO NU'UANU, AND THEN FINALLY RELOCATED IN 1946 TO ITS PRESENT 25-ACRE PROPERTY. 'IOLANI WAS ORIGINALLY AN ALL-BOYS SCHOOL, BUT BECAME CO-EDUCATIONAL IN 1979. TODAY, 'IOLANI HAS MORE THAN 10,310 LIVING ALUMNI AROUND THE WORLD. THERE ARE APPROXIMATELY 330 FULL-TIME FACULTY AND STAFF DEDICATED TO APPROXIMATELY 1,940 STUDENTS FROM DIVERSE BACKGROUNDS ENROLLED IN GRADES K - 12. ROUGHLY 700 PART-TIME OR SEASONAL TEACHERS, AIDES, COACHES, AND STAFF SUPPLEMENT THE SCHOOL'S EXPANSIVE AFTER-SCHOOL, SUMMER, PERFORMING ARTS, ATHLETIC AND EXTRA-CURRICULAR PROGRAMS. DURING THE SUMMER, STUDENTS FROM THROUGHOUT THE STATE AND AROUND THE WORLD ENROLL IN CLASSES. 'IOLANI SCHOOL IS A PRIVATE SCHOOL YET SERVES THE PUBLIC PURPOSE OF REACHING OUT TO THE COMMUNITY AS WELL AS BEING A RESOURCE FOR OTHER ORGANIZATIONS. THE SCHOOL IS INCREASINGLY BECOMING MORE GLOBAL AS STUDENTS ARE CONNECTED BY TECHNOLOGY TO OTHER PARTS OF THE WORLD. IN THE FALL OF 2013, THE SCHOOL OPENED THE NEW SULLIVAN CENTER FOR INNOVATION AND LEADERSHIP, A FOUR-STORY, 40,000 SQUARE FOOT GREEN DESIGNED BUILDING OFFERING COLLABORATIVE LEARNING SPACES WHERE STUDENTS LEARN TO BE EFFECTIVE LEADERS THROUGH COURSES EMPHASIZING EMPATHY, INTERPERSONAL COMMUNICATION AND REAL-WORLD PROBLEM SOLVING. THE BUILDING INCLUDES A FABRICATION LAB AND MAKER SPACES, A LIBRARY WITH COLLABORATION ROOMS, FLEXIBLE OPEN LEARNING SPACES, A WET LAB, A MEDIA CENTER, A SEMINAR ROOM, AND A ROOFTOP GARDEN. THE CENTER IS ALSO A COMMUNITY RESOURCE FOR VARIOUS LOCAL AND NATIONAL GROUPS. 'IOLANI UPHOLDS HIGH STANDARDS OF ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE AND IS CONSIDERED AMONGST THE EDUCATIONAL LEADERS IN HAWAII AND AROUND THE WORLD. THE SCHOOL MAINTAINS A HEALTHY FINANCIAL PORTFOLIO AND ATTEMPTS TO KEEP TUITION AS LOW AS POSSIBLE. TUITION COVERS APPROXIMATELY 75% OF THE COST OF EDUCATING A CHILD WITH INTEREST INCOME FROM THE SCHOOL'S ENDOWMENT AND FUNDRAISING COVERING THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN TUITION AND THE ACTUAL COST. THE SCHOOL'S FACULTY IS HIGHLY QUALIFIED AND COMMITTED TO THEIR STUDENTS WITH RELATIONAL TEACHING A HIGH PRIORITY. TEACHERS ARE ENCOURAGED TO ATTEND CONFERENCES EITHER LOCALLY OR NATIONALLY TO STAY ABREAST OF CURRENT AND EFFECTIVE PEDAGOGIES. 2013-14 WAS THE FIRST YEAR OF FULL IMPLEMENTATION OF THE I-DEPARTMENT, WHICH PROVIDES STUDENTS WITH ELECTIVES AKIN TO COLLEGE-LEVEL COURSES THAT INSPIRE INNOVATION AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP. THESE CLASSES INCLUDE DESIGN AND FABRICATION, IPAD APP DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT, APPLIED RENEWABLE ENERGY SYSTEMS, ROBOTICS, THE ONE MILE CLASS, AND VIDEO GAME DESIGN. IN ADDITION, THE SCHOOL MAINTAINS OUTSTANDING ACADEMIC PROGRAMS IN ENGLISH, WORLD LANGUAGES (CHINESE, JAPANESE, SPANISH, FRENCH, LATIN, AND HAWAIIAN), HEALTH EDUCATION, HISTORY, MATHEMATICS, PERFORMING ARTS, PHYSICAL EDUCATION, RELIGION, SCIENCE AND ATHLETICS. THERE IS AN ACTIVE STUDENT ACTIVITIES OFFICE AND EACH APRIL, 'IOLANI HOLDS A TWO-DAY COMMUNITY FAIR PROVIDING AN OPPORTUNITY TO RAISE FUNDS TO SUPPORT STUDENT TRAVEL INITIATIVES. STUDENT TRAVEL IS A LARGE PART OF THE 'IOLANI EXPERIENCE AS WELL, PROVIDING HANDS-ON EXPERIENCES WITH DIFFERENT CULTURES AND OPPORTUNITIES FOR DEVELOPING GLOBAL CITIZENS. SOME PROGRAMS INCLUDE: THEATER STUDENTS PERFORMING AT THE EDINBURGH FRINGE FESTIVAL IN SCOTLAND, THE ORCHESTRA PERFORMING AT THE LONDON INVITATIONAL SERIES, COLLEGE TOURS TO THE EAST AND WEST COASTS, ECONOMICS TEAM COMPETING IN NEW YORK CITY IN THE NATIONAL ECONOMICS BOWL, and A WEEKLONG EXCHANGE PROGRAM WITH TSINGHUA HIGH SCHOOL IN BEIJING, CHina, AND A SERVICE LEARNING TRIP TO INDIA. 'IOLANI STUDENTS ARE SEEN AS LEADERS IN THE COMMUNITY AND ARE DEDICATED TO COMMUNITY SERVICE. STUDENT ACCOMPLISHMENTS INCLUDE STATE AND NATIONAL RECOGNITION IN COMPETITIONS SUCH AS THE SUPER SCIENCE FAIR, HONG KONG UNIVERSITY REAL WORLD DESIGN COMPETITION, MATH LEAGUE, SPEECH AND DEBATE, ROBOTICS, MUSIC, ART.
