Academics

For over 80 years, our graduates have excelled in their secondary schools as their colleges and universities upon leaving STS as well. They have become role models and examples for all to follow in their commitment to faith, family, and education. STS graduates reach far and wide across Hawaii and the west coast and mainland employed in every career imaginable from doctors, lawyers, religious, education, health, professional athletes, artists and more. Those secondary schools where our graduates attend both private and public absolutely love the STS students and consistently report back that they are academically skilled, well rounded, kind, loving, team oriented, and just plain fun teenagers!!!.
