We Believe in Educating the Whole Child

Core values of individuality, excellence, innovation, peace, and relationships support students in learning to lead balanced, healthy lives through constructivist approaches, self-directed inquiry, and individualized instruction.

Our Distinctions

Arts

Students explore the visual arts, performing arts, and arts through design.

Whether researching an inquiry about global art, performing in a concert, or repurposing materials for an original design, LJA students employ the arts for problem-solving and creative expression.

Our school is a vibrant community, where everyone is treated like Family.

"Hana Pono inspires students and faculty to think beyond themselves. It encourages others to work hard, not only for themselves, but for the greater community. Hana Pono gives greater meaning to the efforts we put in, where each and every action has a greater impact."

“Le Jardin Academy provided me with a sense of belonging and an idea of what I wanted to do in this world, and I’ll have my community here forever while I learn new things and make new connections… I remember it being ingrained in me to be a lifelong learner.”
