Kaneohe, Hawaii Tutoring Programs
Get started with SchoolTutoring Academy's tutoring programs for Kaneohe, Hawaii students.
Kaneohe District and Curriculum
Whether entering the workforce or post-secondary education, Kaneohe students are prepared for future success by following the curriculum and General Learner Outcomes (GLOs) outlined by the Hawaii State Department of Education (DOE). As part of an ongoing effort to ensure that all students are prepared for success, the DOE and Kaneohe schools are adopting the new Common Core State Standards (CCSS), which are designed to ready students for life as highly productive citizens.
We currently cover the following Kaneohe-area school district: Hawaii Public Schools.
Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Kaneohe District Curriculum
A large part of the CCSS is dedicated to giving students access to quality learning in two vital subject areas: English Language Arts (ELA) and mathematics. In English Language Arts courses, students will learn to do more than simply read and write. They will learn how to interact critically with a wide variety of texts and how to respond to these texts through thoughtful, constructive writing. Starting in 2016, high school students will build this foundation by taking at least two courses in ELA and one-half in Expository Writing.
Kaneohe schools also recognize that today’s students are part of a global, interconnected society. Students are encouraged to think critically and perform with quality in the working world, but they are also encouraged to be ethical and work effectively with others. The GLOs that Kaneohe schools and the DOE uphold include the ability to communicate effectively, use technology, think with complexity, and seek education throughout their lives.

Chalk Talk: How Important Are College Rankings?
When considering colleges, many students factor college rankings, such as those published by U.S. News and World Report, into their decisions. After all, college is an investment, and it seems logical that a higher-ranked college would offer a bigger return. Rankings, however, don’t guarantee students’ happiness and future earning potential. Instead of focusing solely on rankings, students might consider whether a college fits their individual needs in other areas, such as school size, student to professor ratio, available activities and clubs, tuition, and location. The experience of college is often just as important as the degree earned, students who choose a college that fits their overall needs may obtain more from their post-secondary education and have an easier transition to the working world.
