Kaimiloa Elementary School

Summary:

Kaimiloa Elementary School is a public elementary school in Ewa Beach, Hawaii, serving students from pre-kindergarten to 6th grade. The school has a diverse student population, with a racial makeup that includes 53.07% Asian, 15.91% Pacific Islander, 16.85% two or more races, 13.7% Hispanic, and 0.47% White students.

While Kaimiloa Elementary School has consistently ranked in the lower half of Hawaii elementary schools, with a SchoolDigger rating ranging from 1 to 3 stars, the school's performance in Smarter Balanced Assessments and HSA/Science tests has been below the state average in recent years. For example, in the 2022-2023 school year, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (48%), Mathematics (53%), and Science (44%) were all lower than the state averages. Additionally, the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate, reaching 24.3% in the 2023-2024 school year, which is significantly higher than the state average.

Compared to nearby schools, such as Kapolei Elementary and Hookele Elementary, which have higher rankings, test scores, and lower chronic absenteeism rates, Kaimiloa Elementary School faces several challenges. However, the school's strengths in serving certain racial subgroups, such as Pacific Islander and African American students, suggest that there may be opportunities for the school to learn from its successes and implement strategies to improve outcomes for all students.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
