Comprehensive Student Support System (CSSS)


Kailua Intermediate School (KIS) is dedicated to the needs of all students and provides an array of student support services. Every student is provided a challenging academic program and the support services needed to maximize student achievement and meet the Hawaii Content and Perforemance Standards and Common Core.
