Good morning, I am a Montessori school teacher and I would like to share my experience with you. My son transferred from Le Jardin to Montessori Community School. In fact, we took the Montessori Community School entrance exams at 2, 3, and 4 years old all of which were unsuccessful, and we were placed in the WAIT POOL, but it did not come around.
Miraculously, I was accepted at Kinder and am attending.
One of my classmates is from Central Union.
According to her mom, many kids from Central Union took the Kinder exam to Montessori Community School, but
only 2 kids were accepted.
Two years ago, it seems that about 70% of Central Union graduates ended up going to Public.
Kinder exams are fiercely competitive...

Montessori Community School is a difficult school to get into, as we learned the hard way when we took the test at 2, 3, and 4 years old.
If you just get in, you can really see your child's independence, personality, cooperation, and academic skills grow considerably. My child also enjoys attending the school.
Activities are offered in abundance, and we are very happy with the education that includes gardening, science, art, and sports in addition to academics.

I wanted to send my child to Punahou and Iolani after he had found what he wanted to do, so
Elementary will continue to attend
a Montessori community that brings out the academic and personal potential that will allow him to pass Punahou and Iolani 99% of the time. I will continue to send her there. There is no middle so we will take the Punahouiolani exam at that time.

Tips for passing...?
I'm not sure if it's a good idea or not...? I was very much aware that it was a very difficult school to get in, so I submitted an application in which I expressed my enthusiasm and how much I was interested in Montessori education
.

My son recently graduated from Central Union ！
The school is a great environment and he made many friends
because of the large number of students.
As for the entrance exams to Punahou and Iolani, the final results this year were 4 students from Punahou and 1 student from Iolani out of over 60 students.
It seems that 1 out of every 12 students is accepted to Punahou and Iolani.

Indeed, more than 70% of the children go on to public kinder.

But it's the first school for your child, what is the number one consideration?
My son also took the Kinder entrance exams to Punahou, Iolani, Midpac, Montessori Community, and Le Jardin, all of which were disappointing and public. But I have no regrets about sending him to Central Union ！.

Thank you all
for your help.
I apologize for the delay in replying.
As a result, we have decided to decline Central Union and
send him to Midpac.

As others have said, we were accepted to Central Union and
Mid-Pac, but
Montessori Community School and St. Clements were on our waitlist, but with disappointing results.

I compared Central Union and Midpac
I also went to visit the school and ask a lot of questions after accept.
I heard that Central Union was the most popular school for Kinder
Private, but many of them were Public
I decided to go with Midpac for the future.

Thank you very much for your opinions.

Topi
Nice to meet you ！ My child is also a mid-pack pre from August ！
I was also accepted to Central Union and mid-pack only, and like #21, I went to Central Union admins to ask about kinder schools, etc.
and decided on mid-pack the other day. ！
This year, only 3 Punahou and 1 Iolani were accepted from Central Union, mostly from Public, and the rest from
Midpac, St. Louis and Hongwanji.
Then I guess I should start with Midpac from the beginning ！ and.

We also did not get into St. Clements, Montessori Community School, St. Andrews （ Queen Emma ） （ tears ）
I couldn't help but comment because someone else was in the same situation. ！ I couldn't help but comment!

I am enrolling my daughter in Central Union in August at one point.
To be honest, I'm still a little confused. You all say that it is a school that lets the kids play freely
but I was wondering how it would be for our family
as we don't want to send our kids to an academic or Kinderpublic school.
I think the place and the school itself is bright and pleasant, but 3 Punahou and 1 Iolani out of less than 70 students in the education part of the children's education
is not much ？ It's no different from other preis that you can get in without taking an exam.

We were accepted to Central Union, Midpac, and Waiokeola,
St. Clements, Unity, and Montessori Community School were not accepted （ wait pool not contacted ）.
Montessori Community was also rejected at age 2, and again at age 3.

No one seems to have taken the Waiokeola test, and I asked my teacher about it, and she told me that Waiokeola has been out of the top three schools since the head of the school changed ？ 5 years ago
and those considering Punahouiolani Kinder do not go to Waiokeola. They were not going to go to Waiokeola.
He said it was only a matter of time before Central Union would also be out of the three families, and he was wondering about Midpac, the other one that was accepted and ENROLL.

Topi and Sayaka chose Midpac and their reasons were the same as our family's concerns
I was grateful to have a little push.
It's only a pre, it's a pre, so I was glad to be able to get some shared information here.
I'm going to contact both Central Union and Midpac myself and see what they have to say.
If I don't decide by the end of this month, the first payment day will come （ sweat ） thank you ！
