We are a military family and enjoyed five years at St. Michael School. Our three children were not behind when returning to the mainland. This is a sweet school and we miss it.

St. Michael School is the Best Kept Secret on the North Shore! My brother and I are alumni and attended SMS since Kindergarten. The education my brother and I received from SMS helped us prepare for high school and ultimately college where we both earned degrees. My brother and I are the first in our family to receive college degrees.My daughter has been a student there since preschool and is currently in middle school. Every teacher she has had since preschool are all amazing! She thrives in this close knit school that provides a faith based learning environment.When you are on campus, the feeling you receive on campus is OHANA. The students are well behaved and work well together, the teachers and staff are professional, the parents and extended families are great and there is strong support from the community and church for St. Michael School. If you want to invest in a quality education for your children, this is the place for you! It provides a safe and caring environment with an excellent teacher to student ratio.
