Montessori Community School's College Enrollment Rate

I saw a topic about Montessori Community School (MCS), but not Pre-School
I would like to ask about the schooling after graduation from Elementary.
Please let me know if you know anything about this or if you have children in the school.
The MCS website publishes the number of graduates who go on to higher education and the number of accepted students for the schools they have applied to
In some years there are only 5 graduates for 2021 ( 4 of them went to Punahou 1 to Iolani ! )
. The last two years also seem to have only 9 or 11 students, but does MCS Elementary only have about 10 students per grade level?

My daughter turned 4 last December and is currently in another preschool, but I am hoping she can go to Punahou or Iolani from about middle school
I am sending her to a private school as soon as she turns 3, but the teacher at the school has asked me if I can go to Punahou or Iolani.
I took the entrance exams for both schools earlier this year and was unsuccessful.
I plan to take the test again at Kinder, but MCS seems to be very competitive for admission from Kinder as well .........

If anyone knows if Elementary only has about 10 students, etc., please let me know!

Mr. Hari
I have just answered the same question in another previous topic on MCS.
Here is a copy and paste below.

Nice to meet you ! I have two children attending MCS, my oldest daughter took Punahou two years ago as a G5 (5th grade ) and my oldest son is now attending MCS as a G5.
My oldest son is also at Punahou starting in August.
To answer your question, MCS is up to G6 ( 6th grade ) as you mentioned. Therefore, the results that MCS publishes are the results of the children who have remained in G6.
MCS has one elementary class per grade, with roughly 20 to 22 students.
In fact, more than half of the children take Punahou or Iolani at G5, and less than half of the children stay on to G6 every year.
This year, 14 of my classmates who took the G5 exam including my oldest son were accepted to Punahou.
Of the 14 who were accepted to Punahou, 9 will go to Punahou and 5 to Iolani.

Most of the classmates who stayed until G6 also went to Punahou and Iolani, so as a result, most of the children who grew up together at MCS Elementary will be reunited at Punahou and Iolani

Out of 20 classmates in the year my oldest daughter was there, We have a situation with 17 in the Middle of Punahou.

Elementary is indeed one class, so it is a small group, but there are around 20 of us, and we are very bonded because we are together all the time.
The 7-10 students who go on to higher education are only those who remain until G6, and since they are almost all tested at G5, the group is small.
Hana Hau'oli also has about 20 students per class and most of them go to Punahou, which is similar to MCS.
For your information !

To continue,
Today, the Admissions staff released the college destinations of the 11 students who stayed through G6, the grade above my son's, to the parents of
current students, a step ahead of the website. ( It will be reflected on the website soon )
There are 11 current students who remained until G6, 9 Punahou students took the test and 8 were accepted, 7 Iolani students took the test and 5 were accepted, 10 Midpac students took the test and 10 were accepted.
One is moving to the Mainland. Of these, 8 Punahou went on to higher education, 2 to Midpac, and surprisingly, all Iolani declined.

Midpac is a no-slip choice, and Midpac has had a 100% acceptance rate for over a decade.
There are 11 students who have been in school through G6, but out of 21 classmates from their grade G1, 8 have gone to G5 ( 8 to Punahou and 2 to Iolani last year ) so
16 of 21 classmates from G1 at MCS are Punahou.
17 out of 20 students in my oldest daughter's grade are now in the middle of Punahou.
MCS Elementary is usually only one class with about 20 students. Of those, almost 90% go on to Punahou and the rest to Iolani and other schools.
I think this is why it is called a feeding school.
Personally, I highly recommend this school. It is a school where you can learn freely, where each individual is respected, and where each individual is looked after well.
My oldest daughter and son have been at MCS since they were 3 years old and I can't thank the school, teachers and staff enough !.
