KA‘I PROGRAMS (KŪKULU ALAKA‘I ‘IOLANI)

THE MISSION OF THE ‘IOLANI SCHOOL KA‘I (KŪKULU ALAKAʻI ʻIOLANI) PROGRAMS IS TO
RAISE LIFE OUTCOMES FOR UNDER-RESOURCED STUDENTS FROM PĀLOLO VALLEY BY PROVIDING
ACCESS TO HIGH-QUALITY EDUCATION PROGRAMS AND COMPREHENSIVE, YEAR-ROUND SUPPORT.

Since 2010, KA‘I has evolved into a strong community partnership between ‘Iolani
School and Pālolo Valley, expanding to include the KA‘I Keiki Program, KA‘I
Elementary Program, KA‘I Middle & High School Program, and KA‘I Postsecondary
Program. Over the past 15 years, we have focused our resources on data-driven
strategies that create lasting, lifelong, and generational impacts for our
students and the community. These efforts have led to significant outcomes such
as access to high-quality preschool education, long-term summer programs,
personalized tutoring, high school graduation, and postsecondary education
achievement. In our 15th year, we served 209 students from preschool through
postsecondary education, all of whom are first-generation high school and/or
postsecondary graduates.

FRED, KA‘I Group 1, USC Graduate

"KA‘I has provided me tremendous financial, academic and character development
support, from 6th grade until college graduation. It's a guiding hand that many
students need to graduate from college, which is such a daunting task when you
are the first in your family to do so, or tuition costs seem impossible to
handle, or you are unaware of how to even handle college applications."

KALEB

KA‘I Group 8, High School Senior

"The KA‘I Program has done much more than just helped me. It has designed me to
be the best I can be. KA'I constantly stays with me in my actions, how I treat
others, and in my future."

Tiff

KA‘I Group 3, KCC Graduate

"If I had to describe the KA'I program in one word, it would be 'opportunity.'
The KA'I Program is definitely a huge part of who and where I am today. I've had
opportunity after opportunity come my way simply because I showed up and went to
KA‘I. All of these different classes and opportunities are now skills that I've
used in high school, college and in my job today."
