K – 12 Learning Outcomes

Punahou School recognizes that the world our students will inherit will be significantly different from the one that their teachers and parents came of age in. The forces of technological innovation, global interconnection, human migration, and environmental changes, among other factors, will require our graduates to be lifelong learners with enduring skills and habits of mind. Their ability to learn, re-learn, and adapt to novel circumstances will be crucial. While discipline-specific content is still important, Punahou has identified the core learning outcomes we believe should be targeted throughout a student’s educational journey in order to prepare our graduates to succeed in the future:

• Kuana‘ike (perspective and worldview)
• Critical Thinking
• Creativity
  
• Communication
• Collaboration
  
• Citizenship
  
• Kuleana (responsibility and privilege)
