Kihei Charter School Reviews
Rating 3.65 out of 5 91 reviews
I enjoyed the environment at Kihei Charter and appreciated the doors that it opened for me. During my sophomore year, I had the privilege of enrolling in my first college course, which was a stepping stone for my academic growth. I was truly fortunate to benefit from the school-funding which covered half the course tuition. I firmly believe that other high school should take advantage of this fantastic opportunity.
Throughout my academic years, I wished for a more structured and organized school experience. Despite the best efforts of my educators, I often found a lack of direction and guidance. The scheduling of classes posed a consistent issue at the beginning of each year, and it wasn't uncommon for issues to persist until the second quarter. I strongly believe that a more comprehensive and thoughtful approach to planning and organization could have greatly enhanced the schools productivity and overall quality. However, because of these challenges, I learned to be self sufficient.

My experience with Kihei Charter School was amazing. They are really good, supportive, and helpful. The staff there they go above and beyond for the students. Even for me they were really supportive of my decision of keeping my baby in high school. They watched him while I was going classes and helping me throughout my mommy journey and being a student at the same time. Now I am in college along with my son they still support me and check in on me. They're like my favorite teachers.
I liked that they had a class for computer science which is the major I'm doing in college. I had an okay experience at KCS and actually made more friends than I thought I would. The dual-credit opportunity is pretty nice and I was able to get a couple classes done while my friend got his associates degree. I wish they had a soccer team for high school, a better gym, and better school food.
