Hello.
I have a question about something I don't understand about MCS admissions, which is often discussed here.

I have appplied for my daughter, who will be 3 in November, for admission for the 2024 school year.
I recently received an email stating that I could invite her to enroll for the 2024-2025 school year and was invited to an open house in April. （ School Tour ？
Does this mean that I am guaranteed admission ？ or is everyone who is on the waiting list receiving this email ？
I would like to know if anyone knows how this will go from here. Thank you in advance.

We received our results too, but no...

Like Pinky Ring, I knew it would be difficult to get in, but I couldn't give up my faint hope ！ and was
shocked ! I put it on my waitlist right away, but
it looks difficult ！

Congratulations on your acceptance letter, Sacchi ！ Do you have any secrets for getting through the difficult entrance process ？ Did you send your child to a school or something ？

? My child has received acceptance letters from Central Union and Hongwanji, and I am not sure which one to choose. I was wondering if Hongwanji is the better choice considering the Kinder exam.
I am so jealous of your MCS acceptance ！

Nice to meet you ！
My son also took the test at 3 years old, but the result was disappointing …
He also took the test at 2 years old, but he didn't get in as well and put his name in the wait pool, but it didn't come around.
I took the test this year ！ with the hope that I would get in this year, but the result was still disappointing. …
Since the wait pool is almost never offered at popular schools,
I am already wondering how to get in and am switching my mind to the 4-year-old slot
for the next year.
If your email is an acceptance letter, that's great
Congratulations on passing the difficult test ！!

Thank you 😭

Maki
I also applied with faint hopes as well,
I did not send my child to any school. （ The applique itself was only a form to be filled out by an adult, in which the adult had to write a statement about his/her thoughts and interest in Montessori and the child's education, and there was no kind of exam for the child himself/herself to do anything... ？ ！
Honganji is also very popular I often hear that it is very good for kinder exams.

Stand by me
thank you 😭

Nice to meet you ！ I was looking at MCS for my 2 year old son to take the 3 year old class next year ！
If anyone knows, I would like to know if MCS and other difficult schools like Hana Hau'oli have Elementary through 6th grade ？ The other puglik elementary schools have elementary through 5th grade ？

So I see that MCS publishes where their graduates go to school, and it seems that there are only 6 to 11 elementary students each year
I guess that means there are only 6 students per class or 11 at the most. Does that mean there are no students?
I wonder if it is difficult to make friends in Elementary if there are too few.
If you know the situation, please let me know.

Mr. FREEMAN
Nice to meet you ！ I have two children attending MCS, my oldest daughter took Punahou two years ago at G5 (5th grade ） and my oldest son is now attending MCS at 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 each 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 my classmates who stayed until G6 also went to Punahou and Iolani, so as a result, most of the kids I grew up with at MCS Elementary will be reunited at Punahou and Iolani
！
My oldest daughter had 20 classmates in the same year, 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, it is a small group.
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 ！
