Teaching Accelerated Learners

Hawaii Technology Academy and its curriculum partner K¹² understand that academically gifted students don’t fit into a box—whether it’s a classroom or a one-size-fits-all education program. Teaching gifted kids is about challenging their young, talented minds. It’s about allowing these students the freedom that comes from flexible, individualized learning approaches, and the challenge that comes from an exceptional, engaging curriculum—both of which we provide.

Here are just a few reasons why the challenging, engaging K¹² curriculum our students use works so well for academically gifted kids:

  • The K-8 curriculum is mastery-based, enabling students to advance when they're ready—not when the rest of the class is.
  • The high school curriculum will include AP ® courses for the 2010-11 school year and honors courses in coming years
  • World language courses in up to six languages are available to all students.
  • The approach to learning is flexible and dynamic.

Hawaii Technology Academy and K¹² focus on helping students reach their natural potential.
