Waialae Elementary Public Charter School

Wai’alae School is committed to providing educational experiences that help our students develop the habits of mind and the attitudes of effective, productive citizens who are able to think, solve problems, make responsible decisions, and work together.

Wai’alae Elementary Public Charter School is a tuition free Preschool to Grade 5 elementary school located in the Kaimuki section of East Honolulu.

In 1995, the school became Hawai’i’s first Student-Centered School and then four years later, with the passage of Hawai’i’s “charter school law”, evolved into a Public Charter School.

Wai’alae Elementary Public Charter School is a student centered school that honors the whole child. It is committed to nurturing a joyful community of learners who strive for excellence and innovation; empowering all members of the community to actively engage in a democratic society.
