I attended Punahou since I was in Kindergarten, and it has become like a second home to me. They have helped to shape who I am today, provided me with countless opportunities, supported me on my journey in life, allowed me to develop and explore my interests, and helped to prepare me for college. The teachers, faculty, and students all care for one another, and there is something for everyone at Punahou. Thank you!
I love the diversity in the faculty and staff because it helps to create an even more diverse community where our mentors have a wide range of experiences. The diversity is also apparent in the variety of teaching styles that allow students to discover how they learn best.
Because the high school is run similar to college, it really prepares students for college and how to manage their time and juggle extracurriculars, family commitments, and school. Academically, ones GPA may drop because it is more challenging that public school, but the experience and challenge is very beneficial for the growth of students.
Punahou has been making a lot of upgrades to its facilities. New buildings (that are Net Zero) are being built as well as the Kenneth Richardson Learning Lab in Mamiya Science Center that provides students with access to an array of machines.

Punahou was the best experience of my life! I want to send my own kids here. I attended Punahou from kindergarten through my senior year. The environment is amazing. I made friends for life as well as connections with my teachers and coaches. Punahou sets you up for success in your future endeavors, and is always encouraging and supportive.
