Detailed Information

The significant growth in East Kapolei has led to overcrowding at ‘Ewa Elementary School.  

Students residing in Kaulu‘okaha‘i and Keahumoa Place are being redistricted from ‘Ewa Elementary School to Barbers Point Elementary School. 

Students residing in Pohaku Estates are being redistricted from ‘Ewa Elementary School to Kapolei Elementary School. 

The new boundaries will take effect at the start of the 2025-2026 school year.

Unfortunately, because ‘Ewa Elementary is expected to exceed their maximum capacity in the 2025-2026 school year, students will need to attend their designated school.  Students currently attending 'Ewa Elementary, who are being redistricted to attend Barbers Point Elementary or Kapolei Elementary, will not be allowed to remain at 'Ewa Elementary.

School bus service will be offered to students who reside in Ka‘uluokaha‘i and Keahumoa Place to commute to Barbers Point Elementary.

School bus service will NOT be offered to students who reside in Pohaku Estates to commute to Kapolei Elementary School.

Questions regarding bus transportation can be directed to the Student Transportation Services Branch at 808-784-6850.

The design for three new portable classrooms at ‘Ewa Elementary School is underway. 

The design for East Kapolei Elementary started in 2022 and is nearing completion.  Permitting submittals for construction are slated for this Summer 2025.  

We ask for community support in advocating for funding for East Kapolei Elementary.

The community is invited to attend a meeting on Tuesday, May 6, at 6 p.m. at ‘Ewa Elementary, where we will be explaining what led to the redistricting, the redistricting plan, and how the community can support the effort to obtain funding to build East Kapolei Elementary School.

The community will have an opportunity to provide input at that meeting.
