Our faculty are caring and nurturing and have a deep sense of purpose when guiding children to discover their personal best. Our classes are intentionally small, and students are challenged by a relevant curriculum that extends beyond the classroom walls. Opportunities abound in performing arts, athletics, community service and global relations.

We keep our school’s founder, Queen Emma Kaleleonālani, and her vision for our school and Hawaii’s keiki close to our hearts. We honor her bold nature, compassionate heart, her knack for diplomacy and genuine kindness; she’s an inspiration to all of us. We strive to lead students to become courageous, compassionate and honorable leaders like Queen Emma.

We celebrate each child as a unique individual who is discovering his or her own strengths and talents. Our students develop independence while also understanding and managing their emotions. Our Hawaiian and Episcopal heritage ignite our students to be healthy in mind, body and spirit. They become visionaries who are engaged in creating equitable solutions for their communities in Hawai‘i and beyond.

Queen Emma, Our Visionary Founder Queen Emma Kaleleonālani dedicated herself to serving the health, educational and spiritual needs of her people. She and her husband, Kamehameha IV, were instrumental in bringing the Anglican Church to the islands, and she became known and loved for her humanitarian efforts.

A transformational thinker and leader, Queen Emma sailed to England to solicit funds for an Anglican cathedral and a school for girls in Hawai‘i. During her trip, she succeeded in securing support for both projects, leading to the founding of St. Andrew’s Priory School.

St. Andrew’s Schools have expanded Queen Emma’s vision by acquiring a co-ed preschool and opening a school for boys. Today, the school embraces Queen Emma’s tradition of community and spiritual generosity with each new generation of children.
