Keaau High School
Keaʻau High School is a public high school in Kea'au, Hawaii, US built in 1999 on 55 acres (22 ha) of land. The school is operated by the Hawaii Department of Education (HIDOE). Its mascot is the Cougar.
In 1997, an environmental study was conducted to build a new high school and elementary in the Keaau area. This was done after adjacent school Waiakea High was subject to overcrowding due to students from the Puna district attending the school. In anticipation for growth in Puna, the schools were approved for construction. The school opened in 1999 to 280 freshmen students, with the elementary school opening two years prior. The first graduating class graduated in 2003.
The State of Hawaii purchased the land from the Shipman Foundation. The state paid $687,835 for the land.
The school's campus is fronted by the Keaau-Pahoa Bypass Road. The road was intended to open in time for the school's opening, but as of July 1998, its opening was expected to be delayed.
The school was built in several phases. Phase one of the school opened its main classrooms and buildings. Subsequent phases, scheduled in 2000, resulted in the addition of various facilities, including sport stadiums, a cafeteria, and facilities for Career and Technical Education.
Per the Hawaii Board of Education, the school requires a total of 24 credits to graduate. These are six credits in electives, four credits in English, four credits in social studies, three credits in mathematics, three credits in science, two credits in either Career and Technical Education, foreign language, or fine arts, one credit in physical education, half a credit in health, and half a credit in the Personal Transition Plan.
For dual-credit, the school offers Advanced Placement (AP) classes and Running Start. In the 2021–2022 school year, 13% took an AP Exam, with 9% passing. Running Start is offered through the University of Hawaii system.
In 2018, a plants database for the plants at the school was created. This initiative was funded by a grant, in which approximately 1,400 dollars was raised. To collect the information, students used various tools, including general positioning systems (GPS) and photography. The plant page is linked on the school's main website and is accessible to the public.
