Best Public Schools in Zip Code 96731

Summary:

The 96731 zip code area is home to two schools - Kahuku High & Intermediate School, serving grades 7-12, and Kahuku Elementary School, serving grades PK-6. With a total enrollment of 1,649 students, these schools serve a diverse student population in the local community.

Kahuku High & Intermediate School has a relatively high four-year graduation rate of 89.2%, but its academic performance on state assessments is below the state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. Only 35.76% of students are proficient or better in English Language Arts, and 22.46% in Mathematics. The school also faces a high chronic absenteeism rate of 34.7%, which is a significant concern.

In contrast, Kahuku Elementary School performs slightly better academically, with 38.74% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 33.68% in Mathematics. However, the school also struggles with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 29.4%. Both schools have relatively high per-student spending and low student-teacher ratios, but the academic challenges and attendance issues suggest that the Hawaii Department of Education may need to focus on addressing these concerns to improve educational outcomes for students in the 96731 zip code area.
