School and Community
Founded in 1863 during the reign of King Kamehameha
IV as a small mission school for young men, ‘Iolani School
has evolved into one of the largest and most highly and
respected independent coeducational schools in the nation.
Approximately 1,880 talented students of diverse racial
and religious heritage now attend this K-12 day school
(with 1,326 in grades 7 - 12), which is historically related
to the Episcopal Church. ‘Iolani students pursue a rigorous
program of academic studies that includes Advancement
Placement courses in more than 20 subjects. Through
its religious, athletic, and extracurricular programs, the
school also strives to intensify and broaden the capacities
of its students so that they enter the world not only with
trained minds but also with a sense of personal worth and
responsibility to mankind.
‘Iolani also welcomed Head of School Timothy R. Cottrell,
Ph.D. on July 1, 2012. With years of proven leadership
experience and the vision to move ‘Iolani forward, Dr.

learning skills. The school also implemented a One-to-One

‘Iolani School is a co-educational, college preparatory
school for grades K - 12 founded upon Christian principles.
Its mission is to develop liberally educated, well-rounded
individuals who are well prepared for higher education and
for responsible moral citizenship.
Faculty, Administration,
and Board of Governors
At the heart of ‘Iolani’s success is its talented and dedicated
faculty - a veteran group with an average of 18 years of
service to the school. Seventy percent of the faculty hold
advanced degrees, and continuing professional development
is supported through a variety of study allowances, grants,
and sabbaticals. The faculty culture is strongly participatory,
with teacher expecting to be respected, consulted, and
heard. Opportunities for faculty to also serve as part-time
athletic coaches are available.
Faculty salaries are competitive and include a provision to
reward master teachers. One-quarter of this veteran faculty
ranks at the top of the 30-step salary scale. Benefits include
medical and dental coverage, a 10 percent TIAA-CREFF
match (with a mandatory 5 percent employee contribution),
and 100 percent tuition remission for one child at a time.
A senior administration team, including the Dean of Studies,
Dean of Upper School and Dean of Lower School, reports
directly to the Head of School. Department Chairs oversee
the curriculum in grades 7 - 12. The Head of School makes
the final decisions regarding faculty hiring, with significant
input from the Department Chairs and Division Deans.
The Head reports to the 22-member Board of Governors, a
dedicated and talented group that is well organized, efficient,
and appropriately involved at strategic and fiduciary levels.
Board members each possess valued skills and insights.
