Social And Personal Development - Fostering the development of social competence in the students is emphasized throughout the curriculum.  Students are encouraged and supported in their relationships with peers and adults.  Students are also guided in their responses to a variety of social situations.  Individual responsibility is promoted daily.  The students need for autonomy is carefully balanced with the rights of the community.

Language Arts - Emerging reading and writing readiness are supported in Junior Kindergarten.  The students learn the twenty-six single sounds of the English language through the Spalding Phonics method.  The multi-sensory program teaches the students correct pronunciation, letter and numeral formation and decoding skills.  Quality literature is selected based on the current theme.

Mathematics - Mathematics is integrated into other curriculum areas.  Numeral recognition, one-to-one correspondence, identifying greater than and less than, counting sequentially, as well as identifying shapes, fractions and patterns are learned through learning centers and whole class projects.  Learning to write numerals is incorporated into daily journals and monthly calendars.  Students write and memorize their phone numbers and home addresses.  Math is often integrated into science projects, allowing the students to make connections to real life.

Social Studies - Four and five year old students learn about their society beginning with how they relate to one another:  following directions, sharing, good manners and caring for others.  As they move out into the community, students learn about school and community helpers.  A unit on community and safety coincides with Fire Prevention Week.  Cultural awareness is incorporated into holiday celebrations.  For example, prior to Thanksgiving, the students learn about good nutrition and health and giving thanks through their study of Native American Indians and Pilgrims.  With Christmas and Hanukkah, the students become sensitive to family traditions within our community.  Winter study leads to a campus Snow Day.  Study of communication includes a visit to the Senior Citizen Center and to the Post Office where the students mail valentines to their families.

Science - Physical, earth and biological sciences are presented through hands-on experiences.  Independently and collaboratively, students ask questions, make predictions and observations, analyze data and formulate conclusions. The process of discovery is supported and enhanced by concepts and making connections.  Field trips to Honolulu Community College's Fossil Exhibit and Sea Life Park extend the learning opportunities.
