- Ho`ala is a small, independent, college-preparatory school that is nationally recognized as a model for character education. The core of the Ho`ala philosophy is found in its "implicit curriculum," emphasizing that adults teach children how to behave by the example of their own actions and attitudes, both in the classroom and at home. Ho`ala's "crowning achievement" is its school environment. Teachers create an extraordinarily safe, dynamic learning atmosphere in which students feels that are needed, listened to, and taken seriously. Such an environment empowers students to begin taking true responsibility for their lives.
