Susan Scofield Scholarship
2022 marked the inaugural year of the $1000 Susan Scofield Scholarship. Susan Scofield was the first principal of the "new" Upcountry school that opened in September 1995 and was the only principal for the school's first 21 years. Even before any buildings on the campus were ever completed, she worked closely with the first incoming class of 8th graders at Kalama Intermediate school, their parents, and the Upcountry community to establish a clear vision and mission that created Na Ali'i pride, traditions, and academic achievements. Under her leadership, King Kekaulike High School was recognized as one of the best high schools in the state by US News and World Report (2013), as well as one of the nation's most challenging schools by The Washington Post (2012, 2013).
