the way we prepare young women matters

At Hawai‘i School for Girls at La Pietra, we think now, more than ever, the way we prepare young women matters. And while we’ve been proud to be an all-girls school for over 60 years, we renew our belief in that mission daily.

Since its earliest days, Hawai‘i School for Girls has been a place where young women have flourished in a supportive learning community led by a vision that values each girl’s unique journey. HSG has always believed that every girl comes with unlimited potential, her own bright promise and ambition.

Our aim? To give each girl the space to recognize her identity and individuality as her greatest assets – and to empower her to construct her future and to determine her impact in the way that only she can. As an all-girls school, we curate an environment that allows our students to learn to simply be themselves, each day here at Hawai‘i School for Girls, and for the rest of their lives.

For every girl, the journey and outcome differ. And at Hawai’i School for Girls at La Pietra, we believe that’s exactly what keeps our world interesting and thriving. Regardless of who she becomes or where she goes from here, one think unites all of our graduates:

A woman of purpose who knows who she is and what she wants from life. And so, she achieves it.

Hawai‘i School for Girls continues to be the leading choice in all-girls’ education in Hawai‘i. Families choose HSG because they want to give their daughter the education she deserves to become her best, authentic self. National research confirms that a single-gender educational environment is the right fit for many young women. Hawai‘i School for Girls is recognized for its innovative and dynamic academic and extracurricular programs focusing on how girls learn and grow best. Each girl is her own person here, and our goal is to help each student find her voice and develop the confidence to use it.

As an all-girls school, Hawai‘i School for Girls offers an academic and social environment that empowers young women leaders, where girls can take risks, discuss issues pertinent to young women, and develop positive self-confidence. Everything we do is geared to educating young women – from our teaching strategies and curriculum, to our arts, athletics, and co-curricular program – to help each girl to discover and define her authentic purpose at HSG, in college, and in life.

The culmination of our students’ journey is celebrated each year when we graduate young women who know how to think critically, lead confidently, be creative and curious, and competently navigate the rapidly changing world.
