  • Value of HAIS Membership Guide
    HAWAI'I ASSOCIATION OF INDEPENDENT SCHOOLS The Value of Membership 2021 2oo N. Vineyard Blvd. Suite 401. Honolulu, HI 96817 www.hais.us I 808-973-1540 The Value of HAIS The Voice of Private Schools A letter from the HAIS Executive Director: Dr. Philip J. Bossert The Hawai‘i Association of Independent Schools (HAIS) and its subsidiary, the Hawai‘i Council of Private Schools (HCPS), represents 112 private, independent, parochial and international schools in Hawai‘i. The range of educational options is as wide and varied as anywhere in the world. Member schools vary in size from among the largest in the country to the very small schools of 50 or fewer students; schools for just girls and schools for just boys; Montessori schools, Waldorf schools, and Reggio Emilia schools; schools that are affiliated with various religions as well as secular schools; day schools, residential schools, and virtual schools. Hawai‘i has the largest private school enrollment in the Country. In most states, private school enrollment is between 5% and 8%, but in Hawai‘i almost 16% of parents choose to enroll their children in private schools. The quality of Hawai‘i’s private schools is well recognized - locally, nationally, and globally. HAIS helps to sustain and build private education in Hawai‘i. In addition to its accreditation and licensing services, HAIS provides multiple information resources for all of its member institutions through newsletters and professional programs. It markets private education through various media and maintains a resource rich website for parents and educators. HAIS advocates for private education at the legislature and through membership with a wide variety of local and national organizations.

  • 2017 – 2018 Judiciary History Center Annual Report
    King Kamehameha V Judiciary History Center 2017-2018 Annual Report Statue of Kamehameha I King Kamehameha V Lot Kapuāiwa, grandson of Kamehameha I, ascended the throne in 1863 and was the last Kamehameha to rule the Kingdom of Hawai‘i. As a national leader, Lot made foreign relations and the preservation of independence his primary objectives. His advocacy for Hawaiians inspired a cultural renaissance which included the revival of hula and chant and licensing of medical kāhuna to practice their healing arts. During his reign, Lot commissioned a number of public works including the construction of Ali‘iōlani Hale. In 2000, the Judiciary History Center was renamed to the King Kamehameha V Judiciary History Center in his honor. History of Ali‘iōlani Hale Historic Ali‘iōlani Hale provides the ideal environment for the Judiciary History Center. Initiated during the reign of Kamehameha V and completed during the reign of Kalākaua, Ali‘iōlani Hale opened its doors in 1874. The Legislature and the Supreme Court of the Kingdom of Hawai‘i were the original occupants of the building. After the overthrow of the Monarchy in 1893, the Legislature moved to ‘Iolani Palace. Ali‘iōlani Hale has remained the home of the Supreme Court for well over 100 years. The National Museum, the first museum in Hawai‘i, opened in Ali‘iōlani Hale in 1874. For many years, the National Museum occupied rooms on the second floor and welcomed visitors to view its fine collection of Hawaiian artifacts. In 1898, the Republic of Hawaiʻi's government transferred ownership of the collection to the Bishop Museum.
