Congratulations on your move to Hawaii!
Hawaii’s unique location serves as the military hub of the Pacific and home to Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Marine and Navy bases. About 15,000 military dependents attend Hawaii public schools, representing about 8% of total student enrollment. At Hickam Elementary School, we are roughly 96% military dependents. Relocation is a challenging time for families and children, but there are many people and institutions dedicated to making your transition as smooth and easy as possible.
Below are documents meant to guide and support your transition and enrollment at Hickam Elementary School. Students enrolling in our public school must have documentation proving they are residents of JBPHH, their health records and, if necessary, documents from their previous school and other legal documents. Resources and opt-outs exist for students in exceptional circumstances. The necessary information is detailed below. If you have questions, please call our main office at 808-307-4600.
