Curriculum 2019-2020

Blended Learning Saint Louis School believes that the expectations of students and parents are met when a balance of authentic/traditional and progressive/personalized learning practices is implemented.

`ina-Based Learning A combination of place-based and indigenous culturebased education, `ina-based learning enables the Saint Louis Man to know his place in his nuclear family, his Saint Louis family, his community, island, state, nation and world. In all curricular disciplines, place, people, and relationships become the means to acquire and experience universal principles and fundamental understanding.

Collegiate Dual Enrollment Chaminade University of Honolulu and Saint Louis School partner to provide a dual enrollment program for juniors and seniors. Courses disciplines include English, math, art, religion, and social sciences.

Effective during the 2020-2021 school year, Saint Louis juniors and seniors have the option to take college level courses at Hawai`i Pacific University. Students may take individual classes for dual credit.

Credit transferability varies by college or university.

COVID-19 Pandemic Statement: Saint Louis School suspended on-campus learning in mid-March. We fully implemented distance-learning for the 4th quarter, mainly asynchronous. This fall, students were offered the choice to continue distancelearning or to return to campus for in person learning. All distance-learning is synchronous. Our grading system has remained the same.

In addition to the academic adjustments, students' extracurricular activities were also impacted. Athletics, clubs and activities were cancelled for spring 2020. Athletics normally scheduled for fall have been postponed to spring. Most clubs and activities have curtailed activities for the time being.

The class of 2021 has had limited opportunity to take the ACT or SAT as the exams had been cancelled since March of 2020. Saint Louis School did offer the ACT for the class of 2021 in October 2020.

Grading and Ranking Saint Louis School operates on a yearlong calendar with an A-F grading system. Honors courses are given an extra 0.5 grade point and Advance Placement an extra point each semester in the academic grade point average and cumulative grade point average.
