A Guide to the Value of Your Membership HAWAI'I ASSOCIATION OF INDEPENDENT SCHOOLS The Value of Membership 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 Bossert The Hawai‘i Association of Independent Schools (HAIS) and its subsidiary, the Hawai‘i Council of Private Schools (HCPS), represent more than 120 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 Regio 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 US. 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. And, HAIS assists its members in communicating with one another through its many constituency group listservs. A private school education is a good investment in every respect, and your membership in HAIS is an excellent investment in the future of your school and the community it serves. Mahalo, Philip J. Bossert, Ph.D. Executive Director Hawai'i Association of Independent Schools Page 01 The Value of HAIS HISTORY OF THE Hawai'i Association of Independent Schools (HAIS) HAIS was formed and organized in 1969 at the suggestion of the leaders of La Pietra, Punahou, 'Iolani, Kamehameha Schools, Academy of the Pacific, St. Andrew's Priory, Mid-Pacific Institute, and Hanahau'oli. HAIS is the state affiliate for the National Association of Independent Schools (NAIS), and also the state liaison for the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC). HAIS is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization governed by a volunteer board of directors. Leadership of the board is provided by heads of member schools. In 1996, HAIS was given the responsibility of licensing private K-12 schools, which it carries out through its subsidiary the Hawaii Council of Private Schools (HCPS). Our membership is comprised of approximately 100 schools ranging from preschools to K-12 schools, to higher education institutions. While distinctive with respect to mission and philosophy, HAIS member VISION & MISSION schools are united in helping children achieve STATEMENT personal and academic excellence. Vision Statement To support member schools, and other organizations, in preparing all students for the challenges of life and social responsibility. Mission Statement Hawai'i Association of Independent Schools (HAIS) advocates on behalf of independent education in Hawai'i, provides services that strengthen our individual schools and engages them to achieve educational quality and excellence for all students. Page 02 The Value of HAIS MEMBERSHIP VALUE Inform Collaborate Advocate HAIS provides services and benefits to member schools on Hawai'i, Kauai, Maui, Molokai, and Oahu that collectively educate 34,000+ students PK through 12th grade. We operate with the vision of helping prepare all students for the challenges of life and social responsibility. To that end, HAIS creates professional learning opportunities that are accessible to all educators. HAIS is committed to helping advance and guide education practices in the state of Hawai'i. One way that we are able to identify school needs is through the comprehensive HAIS accreditation process, by which we are able to respond to the needs of our schools. HAIS facilitates meetings of the organization’s Board of Directors and arranges regular gatherings of more than a dozen constituency groups. HAIS also reports annually on enrollment, tuition, and compensation levels. HAIS Works Hard To: Perpetuate school renewal through accreditation and licensing. Develop and deliver professional development opportunities for the faculty and staff of member schools. Promote choice as an important community value. Assist parents in learning about independent education. Preserve independence by monitoring the federal, state and county levels of government, thus allowing member schools to pursue their missions unencumbered by undue regulations.

CONCLUSIONS 16 APPENDIX I – 2017 Hawaii International Education Survey 17 APPENDIX II – List of the Educational Institutions Surveyed 22 APPENDIX III: Economic Impact of International Students in the University of Hawaii System on the State of Hawaii’s Economy 27 Page | 2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The 2017 Hawaii International Education Survey collected data during the academic year 2016/17 regarding the number of foreign students, the program length, the amount of money they spent in the state, and the country of origin of the international students to estimate how international students contribute to the local economy of the state. This survey was a follow up to earlier surveys, conducted in 2009, 2015, and 2016. In 2009, 24 institutions responded, representing a total of approximately 13,000 foreign students. In 2015, 35 institutions responded, representing approximately 10,100 international students. In 2016, 31 institutions responded, representing a total of nearly 12,200 students. The current survey tallied responses from 27 of Hawaii’s educational institutions, representing approximately 10,800 international students. Caution should be used when comparing the surveys due to the different mix of schools, students, and schools’ reporting in these surveys. The total direct economic impact of international students for the State of Hawaii in the 2017 survey was an estimated $225.3 million.
