Pohakea Elementary School

I mainly give this school a five star rating because it is right across the street from where I live. My daughter goes to school here and is currently in summer school. Her kindergarten year was smooth, for the most part. The kindergarten teachers seem very friendly and informative when it comes to your child’s learning experiences. The communication tablets that the children have make it so much easier to communicate with teachers just in case something were to come up or if something just seemed unclear. My gf and I are proud of what our daughter has accomplished in here first year here. they have jamba juice sales every so often and our kids come home with all kinds of different fruits during the school year. There is an A+ and a RAP (read along program.) Discipline is enforced and it doesn’t seem like the teachers would turn a cheek if our children were getting bullied or anything like that.

From when I attended here to now, it has really changed. They cracked down on the bullying. The teachers actually teach their students. They even try to help them when they need the help.
It sounds stupid to say all of those things. but from personal experience, it’s really a big turn around.
I was afraid to let my child go to this school. but I’m glad I let her anyway. She loves school. She loves to learn.
It’s always packed during time for pick up. Thank goodness I literally live right across the street. No driving for me!
