Halau Ku Mana - A New Century PCS

Summary:

Halau Ku Mana - A New Century PCS is a public charter high school serving grades 5-12 in Honolulu, Hawaii, with a student population of 122. The school is part of the Hawaii Department of Education district, which is ranked 1 out of 1 in the state and has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Halau Ku Mana's focus on Hawaiian culture and values is reflected in its student racial makeup, with a significantly higher percentage of Pacific Islander students (59.02%) compared to the nearby schools, which range from 8.52% to 65.22%. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by standardized test scores, is generally lower than the nearby high-performing schools. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (51.61%), Mathematics (11.11%), and Biology (17.5%) were significantly below the state averages and the top-performing nearby schools like Admiral Arthur W. Radford High School and Kalani High School. Additionally, Halau Ku Mana's four-year graduation rate of 73.3% in 2023-2024 is lower than the nearby high-performing schools, which range from 83.8% to 96.4%.

Despite its relatively low student-teacher ratio of 8.4 in 2022-2023, which is lower than the nearby schools, Halau Ku Mana has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 32.7% in 2023-2024, significantly higher than the nearby schools, which range from 11.7% to 68.8%. This high chronic absenteeism rate may be contributing to the school's lower academic performance and graduation rates, and addressing the underlying causes could be a key focus area for the school.

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.
