Private schools in Oahu

Another reason to buy a house in Oahu rather than the neighbor islands - the number of private schools. Iolani, Punahou, Hawaii Baptist Academy, Assetts, and many others.

If you want to see them all, try this website http://www.hais.org/ There are 132 schools on this list, most of which are in Oahu. This is a great website.

The schooling issue seems to be a big concern for people moving to Oahu for the first time. I'll make it simple - most people who can afford private school send their kids to private school. I would say, nearly all of them.
