Students also work with our College & Career Guidance Counselor to create a thoughtful Post-Secondary Plan, apply to colleges, and graduate knowing their next steps.
100+ Ways to Be Creative, Athletic, Inventive, and a Leader
Your student can shine their own way — onstage or backstage, in the Makerspace or the garden, at the kiln or on the canvas. No-cut athletics for Assets-sponsored and co-op teams and opportunities to play for PAC-5 and compete across 22 ILH sports. Choose among electives, clubs, teams and activities, including leadership opportunities in our Student Senate.
Hawai‘i’s Largest High School Mentorship Program
Students participate in our 4-year Mentorship Program, gaining outstanding work experience. Campus-based experiences in Grade 9 prepare students for off-campus intern/work opportunities during Grades 10-12. We place students in hands-on Mentorship opportunities, based on their interests, with private, nonprofit and public sector partners across the island.
How We Support Your Family's Journey
- Fall and mid-year admissions because every semester of high school matters.
- One-stop comprehensive evaluations through the Assets School Transforming Lives Center, with a full report about how the student learns best. We do not require applicants to take the Secondary School Admission Test (SSAT).
