The reported student–teacher ratio is 14.7:1, close to the Hawaii median of 14:1 for the same school level. This ratio uses total enrollment and teacher FTE; it is not an average classroom headcount and can be affected by special programs or part-time staffing.

The largest reported race and ethnicity groups are Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander (65.2%) and Hispanic or Latino (25%). English learners represent 2.1% of enrollment. Students served under IDEA represent 8.4%. These figures help families understand who the school serves; they are not rating inputs.

The 2021–22 civil-rights collection reports gifted and talented programming. Program availability changes, so families should confirm the current catalog and participation rules directly with the school.
