Hawaii Public Schools Report 2010 - From Honolulu Magazine

By Yvonne Ahearn (B), Realtor-Broker in Boring but Important

Honolulu Magazine’s 2010 Public Schools Report is out, in the May edition of the magazine, and I am pleased to report that several Windward Oahu public schools (public schools in Kailua and Kaneohe) did quite well, placing in the top 50 schools on Oahu.

Several Kailua public schools and Kaneohe public schools even moved up in the rankings quite a bit, since the last public schools report in 2008. Particularly, Kailua Elementary jumped from #141 to #50 on Oahu!

The Top rated Windward Schools in Kailua are Aikahi Elementary School and Enchanted Lake Elementary School. The top rated schools in Kaneohe are Heeia Elementary School and Kapunahala Elementary School.

Also in the top tier of Oahu Public Schools are Maunawili Elementary School (in Kailua), Kaneohe Elementary School, Ahuimanu Elementary School (in Kaneohe) and Kailua Elementary School.

Below is a chart of the Top Rated Oahu Public Schools in Windward Oahu, including the MLS neighborhoods that they serve, and, for comparison, the rankings from the 2008 public schools survey by Honolulu Magazine.
