From the school’s basic information to test scores, the Hawaii School Guide has gathered every bit of information and made it easy for parents and students to; find, compare and contact schools they are interested in.
Below is a set of the information which parents and students can basically get online. To see how Hawaii School guide has organized this, please visit Noelani Elementary School.
Noelani Elementary School Description
Noelani Elementary School is nestled in Manoa Valley, a very old and established community. The school has grown from a one building school in 1962 to its present design with over six buildings. Noelani School’s enrollment of 536 students has become more diverse socially, economically, ethnically, and culturally. To address Noelani’s increasingly diverse student population, the school has moved to a standards based system.
Through a multitude of resources such as Noelani’s PTA, grants, and community/business partnerships, Noelani is committed to providing all students with innovative, authentic, student centered, and student driven learning opportunities.Through project based learning, our students are given latitude to learn and express themselves in different modes, raising their enthusiasm for school and motivating them to become active learners and higher achievers.
In recent years, Noelani students composed original scores, expressed their understanding of history through weaving projects, demonstrated their learning on stage, and web published their discoveries. Technology is embraced as a seamless tool to support, enhance, and demonstrate student learning. Noelani has in place the Comprehensive Student Support System (CSSS) to ensure that all students have the opportunity to receive appropriate services and/or is able to participate in programs which address their needs.

2. Statistics
- Summary of Progress – Noelani Elementary School’s Summary of Progress Report shows how teaching, learning and assessments are being based and aligned to Hawaii State Standards and Benchmarks. It summarizes progress made in accomplishing school improvement goals.
- 2007-2008
Noelani Elementary School’s faculty and staff developed and shared the school’s academic and strategic plans with the School Community Council (SCC) for recommendations and affirmation, as it became a working document for school improvement. As a faculty-initiated document, and through focused articulation and accountability for all activities and outcomes, three goals were purposefully infused into the daily curriculum.
Goal 1 was to improve student achievement through standards-based education. To this end, efforts were made to provide teachers with opportunities to participate in professional development workshops to extend learning of content pedagogy with sharing of best practices through professional learning communities (PLC). While developing a school-wide reading curriculum framework was the main focus, mathematics and science curriculums were also examined for they will be concurrently worked on during the next two years. Monthly horizontal and vertical articulation provided time to align and update curriculum maps and continued work on developing school-wide agreements for response formats and scoring. These best practices in instruction and assessment strategies, along with technology integration provided the basis for student learning. General Learner Outcomes (GLO) were also targeted to provide students with opportunities for goal setting and self-improvement.
Goal 2 focused on providing comprehensive support for all students. It is our belief to recognize the individuality of each child and provide for a variety of learning styles. Everyone collaborated to provide students with timely and appropriate supports. School-wide implementation of the Positive Behavioral Supports (PBS) was evident in the behavioral expectations and demonstrations by students in all school settings. All students practiced the three B’s – Be Safe, Be Respectful, and Be Responsible. Quarterly recognition of Noelani Notables, students from every class who consistently displayed these characteristics, provided inspiration for all students.
Goal 3 centered on actions leading to school improvement. The PLCs served to cultivate teachers as leaders who then addressed ways to improve the school by investigating curriculum (through the developing frameworks), assessment (both formative and summative), and reporting practices. Noelani teachers piloted Pinnacle, a web-based grade book in collaboration with Dr. Robert Marzano to validate student proficiency of standards. The use of technology, both web-based and using software provided on school computers, augmented student learning.
This shared process of developing the academic and strategic plans enabled stakeholders to understand what it is that students should know and do to improve their performance and productivity. Underlying all is what the school’s vision, created by the school community, is about – “Noelani is a launching pad to the global community, a learning community that nurtures responsible world citizens.”

The impact of the school’s plan, decisions, & actions on student achievement of standards are addressed. Data about students & student achievement are gathered and analyzed.
The Hawaii State Assessment (HSA) test results have impacted the focus of the school’s plan, decisions, & actions. Generally, the HSA test data over a 3-year period indicate that there are an increasingly large percentage of Noelani students who are proficient in reading and mathematics; however, a smaller percentage of students were proficient in math. Improving achievement levels in mathematics has been a priority this year. School-wide efforts focused on the need to increase the percentages in the proficient range in both reading and mathematics. The Safe School Information System (SSIS) recorded a total of 125 discipline referrals for the period of 8/04-6/05. Problems were in the area of disrespect/noncompliance (42 referrals), physical contact (37 referrals), & other violation of school rules (21 referrals).4. Action Orientation (Rating: 4) Assessment of the entire school’s program & it’s impact on student learning in relation to the General Learner Outcomes (GLOs)&Hawaii State Assessment.
The school-wide action plan focuses on student achievement of the standards, the attainment of the GLOs, and the improvement of the HSA test results. The SID process was revised to increase the level of communication among shareholders. More opportunities have been given to the faculty and staff to increase their role and responsibility in facilitating the SID process. The curriculum and school committees have been restructured and redefined to allow faculty and staff ample opportunities for input and to facilitate the SID process of the school. We have added the Professionalism/Capacity (SID Process), School-Wide Reform (Assessment), and Quality Student Support to the list of curriculum committees. Additionally, we have a full representation of grade levels serving on the following school teams/ committees: School Assessment Learning Teams (SALT) and Grade Level Chairs, HSTA, SCBM, PTA, PBS Cadre, Safety, Student Council Advisor, Craft Fair, Talent Show, Mayfair, and Songfest.5. Accountability (Rating: 3) Implementation of an assessment & accountability system for evaluating school progress toward the GLOs.
Noelani continues to seek a more efficient and comprehensive system for collecting and analyzing useful data that will assist in the improvement of student learning and achievement. We have made progress as a school to work towards developing curriculum and instruction that is standards-based. Professional development and collaboration will continue to focus on curriculum mapping, reading and writing, classroom assessments, and the establishment of professional learning communities.6. Strong Leadership and Support System (Rating: 3) Support of school leadership in facilitating the SID process.
The SID process should allow for more involvement by all shareholders. The school is moving towards the development of a professional learning community that will naturally empower teachers to be leaders. School administration must focus on the efforts to build capacity in the school while providing a clear understanding of school needs and the alignment of those needs to the academic and financial plan.
1. Inclusive: A collaborative process, which involved all stakeholders, was used. The SID Narrative and Action Plan were primarily based on the school’s Blue Ribbon application process in which all stakeholders were involved. The final outcome was shared with the school’s faculty and staff, SCBM Council, and PTA for input, review, and approval prior to submission in December 2001. The SID Narrative and Action plan has been shared electronically (email and shared file) for all staff members to review and add/delete. We have continued to employ technology to get input from various shareholders and post these results on a shared folder. Our progress is further shared through our PTA Board and SCBM Council.
2. Purposefulness: School wide learner outcomes were identified (adoption of the State’s General Learner’s Outcomes) and clearly described with performance indicators/descriptors. Staff is working towards embedding the GLO’s in their teaching and learning. The GLO’s are incorporated in the NCLB consortium grant that Noelani successfully applied for with Washington Middle School and Roosevelt High School.
3. Student-Focused Efforts: The school has reviewed the statewide HAP test to analyze Noelani student achievement of reading and math standards. Test results indicate that a sizable number of Noelani students are proficient in reading standards, however, a smaller number of students were proficient in the math standards. The data provided to the schools has impacted the focus of the school’s plan, decisions, and actions. All aspects of Noelani schooling are supportive of the school wide learner outcomes and HCPs. We continue to review and monitor all aspects of the school’s system to ensure that support for student learning is maximized. The NCLB grant “Journey to Excellence” hired a Math Consultant, Dr. Anthony Picard to work with the staff over time (5 sessions) addressing student proficiency to Math Standards. The focus of each session: 1st Geometry, 2nd Measurement Standards, 3rd Data Analysis and Probability, 4th Algebra, 5th Number and Operation Standard.
4. Action Orientation: The schools plan focuses on student achievement of the standards encompassing the requirements of various programs and initiatives. (Provide support for students needing extra help in math by creating a pullout program with a resource position. The support program works with students in grades 3-6 furthest from proficiency. The NCLB consortiums grant, “Journey to Excellence addresses teacher quality, technology integration, and innovative reform programs to work towards student achievement of standards. The school successfully applied for an Artist in the School grant to address student diversity. This initiative fosters student achievement of standards by providing all students with the opportunity to learn and express their learning in a variety of ways through the arts. The school successfully applied for nine Good Idea Grants funded by Hawaii Public School Foundation. The grants will provide essential resources to support classroom-initiated projects. Noelani School was the recipient of an prestigious art award and received $3,000.00. The money will be used to support art -based projects in the classroom. Cadre of teachers will be participating in a variety of professional development/training opportunities offered by the Complex Area Resource Teams (Science and Math)
5. Accountability: All stakeholders were given the opportunity to participate in developing the plan. Formative and summative evaluation data is being used to determine appropriate follow-up actions. (Assessment, evaluation, reflection, discussion/charting, minutes of professional development days/waiver days.)
6. Strong Leadership and Support System- Leadership come in different forms and have been successful in facilitating the SID process. (Writing cadre, Math cadre, Assessment cadre I & II, Grade Level Chairs, PBS Cadre, SID peer review team, Curriculum Committees).
Vision and Mission Statement: At the very heart of Noelani’s vision and mission statement is a strong commitment to educational excellence for all students. Our vision, created by the school community, “Noelani, our launching pad to theglobal community,” steadfastly illustrates our purpose and mission of “Noelani is a learning community that nurtures responsible world citizens.” With clear expectations attuned to our vision, we have initiated and carried through several reforms: moving from traditional education to a standards-based system; from low technology to technology as a seamless tool for productivity, communication, research, problem-solving and decision-making; from teaching one way to all students to providing multiple approaches and views for diverse learners to learn in a variety of modes and rates, and from conservative schooling to a collaborative enterprise to ensure intellectual, social, moral, and physical growth for all students to succeed in a global community.
Belief Statements: The Noelani School community, through shared decision making, collaborative efforts, and unity of purpose, adopted the following beliefs: 1. Recognize the individuality of each child and provide a variety of choices and opportunities for every child to experience different learning styles. 2. Nurture a community of learners, in which positive role models are an integral part, helping each other through cooperation and collaboration. 3. Provide positive reinforcement, allow for mistakes, accept and respect differences, and foster collaboration. 4. Develop a learner-centered curriculum that focuses on the connecting of prior knowledge to new knowledge in integrated subject areas, respecting individual learning styles. 5. Foster the teaching-learning process which recognizes that learning means connecting to something practical and meaningful; construct knowledge through hands-on exploration of the environment; promote discovery and invention; and encourage risk-taking.
General Learner Outcomes: Noelani School has adopted the State of Hawaii four General Learner Outcomes (GLOs) which we believe are embedded in every subject area of the new Hawaii Content and Performance Standards.
Standards Implementation Design Summary: In response to Noelani’s Standards Implementation Action Plan, the peer review wrote (in italic/bold) Noelani has: Effective programs and plans for improvement: Noelani teachers applied for grants to develop standards -based projects. The grants helped to move Noelani’s educational system to one of vitality, a thinking and meaning centered curriculum based on current research and practices, and aligned with Hawaii Content and Performance Standards. This resulted in the school receiving: Seven Good Idea Grants, an Artist in the school grant and a Technology Literacy Challenge Grant.
Developed an Action Plan that is standards-driven based on faculty survey results: The data collected was used to plan the four professional development days for the staff and faculty.
A strong sense of commitment toward improvement through its staff development plans: Noelani’s staff is committed to all students’ achievement of standards. This was indicative when all teachers opted to be an active participant of “Kids Saving our Future” grant and agreed to request for two “Waiver Days” to work on the SID Action Plan for 2002-2003. An Action connects GLOs to the rationale and to benchmarks; a tie-in to student performance outcomes is needed: The school is aware that Noelani’s SID Action Plan is lacking student data. Noelani will be developing a range of mechanisms (surveys, school-wide test etc.) to collect a broader range of student data to drive the school’s action plan.
Evidence of resourcefulness in involving parents and community in their projects: We have employed a wide range of strategies to ensure that parent and community involvement continues to be integral to the school’s established support system. Well developed involvement activities and events include: Kindergarten Coffee Hour, T-shirt sales, Open House, Grandparents’ Luncheon, Parent/Teacher Conference, Book Fair, Craft Fair, Songfest, Keiki ID, Camp Erdman, Turtle Bay, Big Island Trip, Jogathon, May fair, Talent Show, and Promotion Day.
A consistent and strong sense of leadership and high expectation for students and teachers: Teacher leadership teams were developed to lead inquiry study sessions and workshops in their respective areas to address standards and impact student learning.

Moving from traditional education to a standards-based system; from low technology to technology as a seamless tool for productivity, communication, research, problem-solving and decision-making; from teaching one way to all to providing multiple approaches and views for diverse learners to learn in a variety of modes and rates; and from conservative schooling to a collaborative enterprise to ensure intellectual social, moral, and physical growth for all students to succeed in a global community. We are reworking our programs to meet the needs of our changing population and to address Local and National educational goals.
We believe that if our students are continually challenged in an exciting and relevant learning environment, student performance will reach higher levels of achievement. It is with this belief that we have worked long and hard to provide all students with access to high expectations, challenging curricula and effective teaching. We have made much progress in accomplishing this ambitious task by moving towards a standards-based system. We have adopted the four General Learner Outcomes (GLOs), which we believe are embedded in every subject area of the new Hawaii Content and Performance Standards.
The major goals for the School Year 2000-01 were many and inspite of the lengthy HSTA strike, we were able to accomplish much. Noelani teachers applied for grants to support classroom innovations, and school-wide initiatives. This resulted in the school receiving ten (l0) Public Schools of Hawaii Foundation grants ($16,500), one (1) Artist in the school grant ($10,000), one (1) Title VI grant ($40,000), one (1) Technology Literacy consortium Grant ($100,000), and one (1) Arts in Education Curriculum Development Initiative Grant ($2,300). The grants helped move Noelani’s educational system to one of vitality, a thinking and meaning centered curriculum, educational foundation based on current research and practices, and aligned with the National Standards, Hawaii Content and Performance Standards, and SCANS competencies. Partnerships with organizations helped to maximum our resources and support student learning included: Manoa Marketplace, University of Hawaii Outreach Program, Kiewit Pacific, Grace Pacific Paving Company, Moanalua Gardens Foundation, Manoa Valley Theater, State of Hawaii Attorney General’s Office, Lyon Arboretum, Hawaii Shotokan Karate, Boy Scout and Girl Scout troops, and the Lions International Clubs. Logistically feasible, we have extended our learning arena to the UH Campus whereby our students operated real robots and had hands-on bridge construction experiences at the College of Engineering, had an art experience in the UH Art Gallery while absorbing the knowledge and expertise of a bonafide curator…to our teachers dancing across the curriculum in collaboration with a performing arts professor and professional dancers…to the opportunity of over 300 Noelani students attending a dance performance at the Kennedy Theater for free. We have employed a wide range of strategies to ensure that parent and community involvement continues to be integral to the school’s established support system. Well-developed involvement activities and events included: Kindergarten Coffee Hour, T-shirt sales, Open House, Grandparents’ Luncheon, Geography Week, Parent/Teacher Conference, Art Show, Book Fair, Craft Fair, Songest, Keiki ID, Camp Erdman. Turtle Bay Sleepover, Big Island Trip, Jogathon, Mayfair, Talent Show, Promotion Day.
Noelani’s achievement of being honored as a National Blue Ribbon School for 2000-2001 is clearly indicative of the school’s success and effectiveness in teaching and learning. Another noteworthy accomplishment is Noelani’s principal Clayton Fujie being selected as the National Distinguished Principal of the Year for 2000- 2001. Other accomplishments for 2000-2001 include; Noelani teachers receiving the following awards: Superintendent Aizawa Literacy Award (Beverly Miyake), Tom Adams Public Schools of Hawaii Foundation Award (Sharlene Arita), Milken Award & Honolulu District Teacher of the Year Award (Linda Morikone).

- Hawaii State School Readiness Assessment
(HSSRA)The school, complex areas, and State reports provide information on kindergarten children’s readiness to succeed in school and on the schools’ readiness to support their learning.
The assessment instruments were developed by the School Readiness Task Force, in partnership with the Department of Education, Kamehameha Schools and Good Beginnings Alliance.
School results, especially those of Title I schools, will be useful for school improvement plans and for school transition plans for entering kindergartners.
The results of the assessment are published in reports for the state, complexes, and schools. Reports include the following:
- Summary of Schools’ Early Education Profile Offers background information on elementary schools and the school’s early childhood policies and practices.
- Summary of Kindergarten Class Profile Shows the proportion of entering kindergarten children who consistently display key characteristics and skills considered important to successful early learning experiences.
- Benchmark Shows how many kindergarten classes consistently display key skills and characteristics and how many schools have well established early childhood policies and procedures.

The No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB) of 2001 is a federal law requiring elementary and secondary schools to demonstrate proficiency and progress according to accountability standards set by the state and approved by the U.S. Department of Education.
The law requires states to implement an accountability system and report on performance measures related to Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) in math and reading, participation and proficiency, graduation/retention rates, as well as other educational indicators, such as teacher qualification.
To meet reporting requirements set forth by the law, the DOE publishes comprehensive reports annually, reflecting performance at both the state and individual school level.
