SCHOOL HISTORY AND PROFILE
During World War II when schools were allowed to reopen, a McKinley Annex was started at Kaimuki Intermediate School for sophomores and juniors residing in that part of the city. These students went to school in the afternoon from 12:20 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. In September 1943, the McKinley Annex became Kaimuki High School. The student government was established along democratic lines. A constitution written cooperatively was adopted by the student body in 1944.
A site for the new high school was selected between Date Street and Kaimuki Avenue. Construction of two ten-classroom buildings and one shop was completed in March 1948. By September 1950, a total of 45 standard-sized classrooms, three shops, and a cafeteria were available for use. The administration building was opened in October 1950. Kelly Green and Light Gold were adopted as our school colors in 1950.
In 1951, 1952, and 1953, additional buildings to house business education, agriculture, science, art, homemaking, mechanical drawing, publications, and girls’ and boys’ physical education were completed. The public address system was installed in 1953.
In 1954, a grandstand to accommodate 1,554 students was erected on the campus, since there was no auditorium. For safety reasons, the grandstand was dismantled in 1973. The music building was completed during the summer of 1956. Play courts for boys and girls were completed during the 1957-58 school year, and in 1961 the 50-meter Olympic swimming pool was completed. A new auto mechanics shop was completed in 1962. On April 10, 1964, Kaimuki High School dedicated its new gymnasium. An auditorium to accommodate 680 students was dedicated in 1979.
Kaimuki High School is one of the six public schools in the Honolulu District. It is a comprehensive four-year, co-educational high school accredited by the Western Association of Secondary Schools and Colleges. Student enrollment is approximately 1420 students. Kaimuki draws its students from Jarrett, Kaimuki, and Washinton Middle Schools. Beginning in 1983, grade 9 was added to the school population. The Performing Arts Learning Center was opened in 1987.
KHS PHOTO ID CARDS
Every student must wear or carry a Kaimuki Photo ID Card at all times while on campus during the school day. A student must have a school ID card in order to be eligible for such functions as borrowing books from the library, qualifying for the use of the school Internet, and picking up graduation accessories.
Every freshmen and new student will be issued a school ID card at no cost providing that the ID photo is taken by the last school day in September. Students failing to take their ID photos by this deadline will have to pay the $3.00 picture-taking fee. Returning students should use their ID cards from the previous year. Students losing their original ID card may obtain a new card by paying the $3.00 replacement charge. New students enrolled during the school year shall have two weeks upon enrollment to have their pictures taken at no charge. Thereafter, there shall be a $3.00 charge.
ID photos may be taken on Packet Pick-up Day in August. After school begins, ID photos may be taken afterschool from 2:15-2:45 p.m. until August 31st. Additional picture-taking dates will be announced in the daily bulletin or be posted on the door of Z116. ID photos are taken in the student government room
called the “Aloha Room” (Z116) which is located in the Administration Building.
Students who have paid their Associated Student of Kaimuki (student government) and class dues may have their ID card validated for school activities. A validated ID is required for a student to participate in such activities as school dances, proms, banquets, and school elections. Returning students may have their ID cards validated for the new school year by showing the Student Activities Coordinator in the Aloha Room his/her payment receipt indicating dues payment. There is no charge for the validation of an “old” card.

SAMPLE BIBLIOGRAPHY
This sample bibliography is included in the planner to help you with your reports and reference work for any of your classes. There are many accepted styles for bibliographical citations. One of the two most popular is referred to as the MLA (The Modern Language Association, 1988). Check with your teacher regarding the preferred form for your paper. The most important point to remember is that it is essential to be consistent; use one style throughout a single piece of work (Barron's. 1994).
