History


Kohala School was started in 1926 for students from the North Kohala Coastal Sugar Cane Communities. The high school was established a few years later at its current location.
The school, originally known as Kohala High & Elementary, was located at its original location, now the location of Kohala Middle School in Halaula. In the 1930s, the High School was relocated to its current location due to enrollment growth, but remained Kohala High & Elementary School. In the late 1950s, a new elementary school campus was built adjacent to the high school. A few years later, most of the old high school buildings were demolished and rebuilt, appearing almost identical to the elementary campus buildings. The only buildings that were not demolished were the gymnasium and a classroom building adjacent to the gymnasium. In 1971, a new cafeteria was constructed servicing both the high school and the elementary school. In the early 2000s, the school was broken up into Kohala High School, Kohala Middle School and Kohala Elementary School. Kohala High School's rival is Honokaa High & Intermediate School.




Alma Mater


From afar Kohala mountain,
Green against the sky.
Gaze upon our alma mater,
of Kohala High.
Hail Kohala High School,
thru the cane fields ring.
Hail to thee dear black and gold,
Hail, all hail we sing.
Though the years come and go,
and our faces change.
Still our hearts will hold thy memories,
of Kohala High.
Hail Kohala High School,
thru the cane fields ring.
Hail to thee dear black and gold,
Hail, all hail we sing.
