At Maui Prep, Academics stand as one of the school’s three foundational pillars, alongside Athletics and the Arts. True to this commitment, the school not only challenges students academically but also supports them in preparing for and gaining admission to colleges that align with their strengths, goals, and interests.
The Maui Prep College Center offers personalized, one-on-one guidance throughout the college search and application process. Students receive tailored support to help them explore options, clarify goals, and build a strong application. Each year, Upper School students engage in a series of structured activities designed to prepare them for the evolving demands of college admissions.
Maui Prep House System
The Maui Prep Hale (House) System is a transformative initiative designed to unite students, families, faculty, and staff across all grade levels, fostering unity, belonging, and spirited engagement
There are four Hales, representing "One 'Ohana":
- Golden Torches (Gold/Ochre): Symbolizing passion, brightness, and vision, Golden Torches are radiant, determined, and embody purpose and leadership.
- Sapphire Waves (Aqua/Blue): Representing intelligence, adaptability, and harmony, Sapphire Waves are dynamic, welcoming, and powerful, meeting challenges with resilience and a spirit of collaboration.
- Obsidian Mountains (Black): Symbolizing resilience, clarity, and inner strength, Obsidian Mountains are solid, thoughtful, and reliable, providing a strong foundation for others and upholding high standards of responsibility and truth.
- Silver Stars (Silver/White): Signifying clarity, intuition, and imagination, Silver Stars are dreamers, thinkers, and guides who pursue understanding with curiosity and grace.
Each Hale is led by a Faculty House Leader who serves as a mentor and community builder, coordinating meetings, spirit events, and service projects
Activities include weekly assemblies, house chant development, Spirit Week/Homecoming challenges, and community building/service projects
Student Senate
The Maui Prep Student Senate is comprised of Upper School students (grades 9-12) who are actively engaged in developing their leadership, planning, and execution skills. This student-led, teacher-supported body plays a vital role in enhancing the school community through various initiatives.
