News Release from HIDOE, 25-Oct-2024

HONOLULU — The Hawaiʻi State Department of Education (HIDOE) today released its official enrollment figures for the 2024-25 school year. A total of 165,340 students are enrolled in Hawai‘i’s public and charter schools, marking a slight 1.4% decrease from last year’s count of 167,649 students. The enrollment count includes students in HIDOE schools (including the Department’s distance learning program) and the state's 38 charter schools. The continuing decline aligns with statewide demographic trends, including reduced in-state births.

Based on enrollment for the 2024-25 school year, the five largest HIDOE public schools by grade level are:

  • High schools (grades 9-12): Campbell (2,890), Waipahu (2,538), Mililani (2,382), Farrington (2,094), Moanalua (1,966)
  • Middle (grades 6-8) and intermediate schools (grades 7-8): Mililani Middle (1,635), ‘Ewa Makai Middle (1,221), Waipahu Intermediate (1,113), Kaimukī Middle (1,019), Maui Waena Intermediate (1,015)
  • Elementary schools: ‘Ewa (1,188), August Ahrens (1,131), Holomua (1,084), Kealakehe (905), Keone‘ula (878) 

Statewide, seven HIDOE schools have less than 100 students: Ni‘ihau High and Elementary (13), the Hawaiʻi School for the Deaf and the Blind (49), Maunaloa Elementary (49), Olomana School (77), Kilohana Elementary (80), Waiāhole Elementary (89) and Ho‘okena Elementary (98). 

The 38 public charter schools have an enrollment count of 13,070 and account for 7.9% of total public school enrollment this year. The five largest charter schools are: Hawaiʻi Technology Academy (1,924), Kamaile Academy (906), the Hawaiʻi Academy of Arts and Sciences (738), Ka Waihona o ka Naʻauao Public Charter School (707) and Kanu o ka ʻĀina New Century Public Charter School (696). There are five charter schools with less than 100 students: Ke Ana Laʻahana Public Charter School (33), Kula Aupuni Niihau A Kahelelani Aloha (35), Ke Kula Niihau o Kekaha Learning Center (43), Hakipu‘u Academy (55), and Kūlia Academy (98).
