Description

Mokulele Elementary School, located on Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam in Honolulu, was established in 1961 on land leased from the federal government to provide an education for the growing number of military families stationed in Hawaii during the Vietnam War. The significance of the logo represents the Hawaiian interpretation of the word Mokulele meaning "flying ship or airplane". The nickname "flyers" and the airplane refer to the United States Air Force Base on which the school is located. Our school colors are blue and yellow.

Mokulele currently serves students in grade Pre-Kindergarten to six. Our staff is committed to meeting the educational needs of all students enrolled as we continue our efforts to bring quality to our education program.
