President Obama has often mentioned the importance of charter schools in his overall plan to improve education in the nation, and Maui will now the one in Kihei will be larger and improved. A nightclub and restaurant space will be converted into the new campus for the Kihei Charter Middle School.
"We're gaining more space and we're decreasing our costs," Kihei Charter Executive Director Mark Christiano explained recently as he toured the space once used by Hapa's nightclub, a Mexican restaurant and the current Title Guaranty Escrow & Title Services offices on Lipoa Street.
Currently, middle school students at the only public charter school on Maui are split in two locations - a Science Technology Engineering and Math Academy in the Maui Research & Technology Park, and an Arts Academy at the Maui Academy of Performing Arts on Market Street in Wailuku.
The opportunity to consolidate into one campus came up during the charter school's attempts to find one site for all of its programs.
There are 72 students in the Science Technology Engineering and Math middle school program, and about 51 in the Arts Academy. All together, Kihei Charter School projects a student population of 460 students.
Meanwhile, the state Department of Education is pursuing the negotiation of nearly 77 acres of property just south of the Kihei Commercial Center to build a more traditional high school.
