About Us

Goals for the Student-Athlete:

Athletics helps our students prepare for lifelong skills, collaboration, and teamwork. Academically, our students learn to value the rigors of self-discipline and value good sportsmanship while continually striving for improvement. Above all, Kekaulike's program is committed to cultivating a culture of caring for one another, for our school, and our community.

Philosophy of Athletics:

Here at Kekaulike, our athletic program is an integral part of every participating student-athletes education. Our focus is on helping our students to develop mentally, physically, emotionally, and morally. Our student-athletes are given the opportunity to participate in a wide range of athletic activities which foster sportsmanlike conduct as well as healthy competition. Our program promotes the full development of our student-athletes potential, but also provides them with training and understanding on the areas of cooperation, commitment, discipline and respect for peers, adults, and self. Because of this, our student-athletes are expected to maintain a high standard of conduct which will reflect pride and create respect for our school.
