I'd really like to know if there are schools we really should try to steer clear of and if there are schools we may want to look into more closely and possibilities.
And does anyone know of any websites of the Maui schools? I have done search after search and best I can come up with are really outdated sites for a couple of the schools. Maybe I am looking in the wrong places but it appears to me there just are no websites, is this correct? Please set me straight if I am wrong.
I keep hearing how bad the schools are in Hawaii, and am a little worried about this. But to be completely honest I know very well there are bad schools anywhere. And I have 14 years experience as a parent in the public school system in different places and know problems are not only in Hawaii.
Please, you need only reply if you have useful information and first hand knowledge.
I really hope to hear back! |
Put it this way:
If I had children and have to send them to public schools, I would NEVER bring them to Maui. I would only homeschool them if i could, or if I could afford it, send them to Seabury or Kihei Charters. Otherwise, I'd finish raising them elsewhere, and then come here after they are over 18.
Maui is not known for its educational standards. If it matters to you, I'd think carefully.
