From the President and Chair of the Board of Trustees

Aloha,

We are deeply grateful for our community of donors in the 2024 – 2025 school year. Your tremendous generosity empowers the work we do as a School, and impacts each one of our students, every day.

The Chapel theme for this school year was E Ho‘omoeā, Our Home to Dream and Discover, which comes directly from the language of our mission statement. It reflects our goal to inspire a love for learning, innovation, and exploration from kindergarten through life, empowering all to discover their gifts and passions.

Collectively, your gifts to Punahou this year helped us to continue creating a community where opportunities abound. More than 10,311 gifts over the last year have helped to make the unique Punahou educational experience possible for all of our students.

Together, your generosity:

  • Will pave the way to the 2026 opening of our new Mary Kawena Pukui Learning Commons in the Academy.
  • Helped us provide more than $10 million in need-based financial aid to 830 promising students (22% of total enrollment) who might not otherwise be able to afford a Punahou education.
  • Supported training and professional development for our nearly 800 distinguished faculty and staff, who educate and nurture our 3,770 students.
  • Ensured continued academic excellence, an outstanding, innovative curriculum and successful student outcomes.
  • Created unparalleled opportunities in athletics, music, dance, art and theatre.
  • Promoted sustainability education and practices campuswide.
  • Contributed to the ongoing care and maintenance of our vibrant 76-acre campus home in Mānoa.
We are profoundly appreciative of your generous support and hope you know what a truly wonderful impact you have made on the entire Punahou ‘ohana.

Mahalo nui,
Michael E. Latham Ph.D. ’86
