Our
Beliefs
At
Kamehameha Elementary School we believe that learning is active and
developmental. It involves a continuous cycle of exploration, investigation
and application. It is multi disciplinary. Communication is an integral
component of learning as it occurs in a social context. Learning enables
people to make informed and responsible decisions about their lives.
