Middle School Program (MS)
Our Middle School program (formally HOE/HEP) provides a middle school curriculum Monday through Friday to students at 7th and 8th grade levels at Hui Malama Learning Center located in Wailuku.
Middle School is designed to support the educational growth and development of students at 7th and 8th grade levels. Hui Malama Learning Center provides students with a positive learning experience while focusing on a project based curricula in the areas of science, technology, engineering and math. We assist students to become lifelong learners and critical thinkers by developing essential academic competencies and encouraging appropriate and responsible life choices. Students will learn how to access resources; problem-solve and develop lifeskills relevant to their community and personal goals. The middle school program is also intended to fill a gap in Maui’s traditional educational system that does not address certain needs of the student. Many of Maui’s youth are challenged with physical, emotional, and social difficulties. These students do not thrive in the typical classroom setting. They need to be physically, emotionally, and socially engaged in a learning process that is focused on real problems that they know they can fix. Ours is a holistic approach that asks each student to address all aspects of his or her life (emotional, spiritual, family, friends, recreational, physical) in order to improve academic performance. |
