Kaimuki High School is a WASC-accredited four-year public high school located in Honolulu, Hawaii. Kaimuki High School falls under the jurisdiction of the Hawaii Department of Education. It is bordered by the Manoa-Palolo Drainage Canal, Kapiolani Boulevard, Kaimuki Avenue, Crane Park and Date Street. It is, quite literally, as its alma mater states, in view of Diamond Head. The campus boasts the sculpture ''Pueo'' (owl) by Charles W. Watson. ==History== During World War II when schools were allowed to reopen, a McKinley Annex was started in Kaimuki Intermediate School for sophomores and juniors residing in that part of the city. These students went to school in the afternoon from 12:20 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. In September 1943, the McKinley Annex became Kaimuki High School. The student government was established along democratic lines. A constitution written cooperatively was adopted by the student body in 1944.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.kaimukihs.org/apps/pages/index.jsp?uREC_ID=68594&type=d )〕 In 1947, plans for Kaimuki High School's new location were initiated and construction began.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.kaimukihs.org/apps/pages/index.jsp?uREC_ID=68594&type=d )〕 By September 1950, a total of 45 standard sized classrooms, three shops, and a cafeteria were available for use.
