Open House - Wed. August 19th

Join us for Kealakehe High School’s Open House on Wednesday, August 19, from 5:30–7:00 p.m.!
 
Please begin at the courtyard between the Administration Building and Learning Center (Library) to check in and pick up student schedules, if needed. Staff and student helpers will be available to answer questions and help you navigate campus.
 
Visit teachers in any order and at your own pace—there are no bells, timed rotations, or required sequence. Teachers will briefly share course information, ways families can support learning, and how to connect with them.
Staff and student ambassadors will be available throughout campus. A light dinner and water will also be provided.
 
Running late? No problem! Simply check in at the courtyard when you arrive.
 
For individual concerns about grades, attendance, behavior, or other matters, staff can help arrange a follow-up conversation.
 
We look forward to welcoming you to campus!
