Learning through Volcano's unique natural and cultural resources to become creative global citizens.
Campus Development
Work continues to build a new facility at the Keakealani Campus. ​Once completed, the Keakealani Campus will be able to accommodate up to 250 students.
Looking at current enrollment of 350 students along with increasing enrollment interest and growth projections for upper Puna, it is clear that another site will be needed.
​
With the lease on Old Volcano Road mauka ending May of 2028, school leadership has been working on identifying a viable solution for a second campus.
The Volcano School is partnering with W. H. Shipman, Ltd. to develop facilities on Old Volcano Road between Nahelelani Street and Aliʻi Anela Street. Friends of VSAS have purchased 10 acres adjacent to the WHSL site to provide additional facilities to support the educational program.
The future growth plan is for the Keakealani Campus to house elementary grades K-5 and the new Shipman site to house secondary grades 6-12 and Pre-Kindergarten classrooms.
​
Please join us for a Community Input and Informational Meeting on Wednesday, January 15 at 6 pm to discuss the proposed new campus at the W.H. Shipman site as well as an update on plans for the Keakealani Campus. The community meeting will be held at the Keakealani Campus at 19-4024 Haunani Road, on the 2nd floor of the main building.
