Hawai\u02bbi’s charter schools are tuition-free public schools of choice open to all, serving students in kindergarten through 12th grade. Each charter school offers a different learning environment; some offer blended learning, others focus on Hawaiian language immersion or arts integration, and others offer project-based learning or a Waldorf model of learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
