About Hawaii State Department of Education

Hawai‘i's public school system was founded on Oct. 15, 1840, by King Kamehameha III. It is the oldest public school system west of the Mississippi and one of the largest in the country – 294 unique schools on seven islands, with more than 22,000 full-time and 20,000 part-time/casual employees serving about 180,000 students, their families and the community.

Hawai‘i’s public schools are a diverse portfolio of high-quality school models aligned with local school community context, values, history and economic growth opportunities through leadership empowerment, student voice and teacher collaboration.

The mission of the Hawai‘i State Department of Education (HIDOE) is to serve our community by ensuring equity, empowerment and excellence in education for all students.
