The Honolulu Military Academy was founded by its president, Col. L. G. Blackman, in 1911. It was controlled by a board of 10 trustees of which the president was a member and presiding officer ex officio. It had no endowment, but owned a fine piece of property consisting of about of ground and six buildings, and was valued at $200,000. It was located at Kaimuki near Wai'alae Bay, a mile from the end of the Waialae street-car line. The buildings stood on high ground overlooking the ocean. The school drew its cadets from all points in the islands. The 1918-19 roster showed 64 from Honolulu, 10 from Oahu outside of Honolulu, 16 from Hawaii, 11 from Maui, 10 from Kauai, 1 from Molokai, 2 from California, and 1 each from New York State, Minnesota, and Japan. The military regime as the title of the school indicates is was a dominant feature of its organization. It began at first with instruction only in the elementary grades; but it grew to offer a 12-grade program of studies, and was organized in three divisions, an elementary school, grades 1-6; a junior academy, grades 7, 8, 9: and a senior academy, grades 10, 11, 12. ==References == Department of the Interior Bureau of Education Bulletin 1920, No.13 Educational Work of the Commercial Museum of Philadelphia by Charles R.
