St. Andrew's Schools is a private K–12 school in Honolulu, Hawaii. Made up of The Priory, an all-girls K–12 program with a college preparatory school; The Prep, the all-boys K–5 program; and a co-educational preschool for ages 2–5 years in the Nu'uanu valley. Founded in 1867 by Queen Emma Kaleleonālani, wife of King Kamehameha IV, the schools enroll students in preschool through grade 12 year round. The enrollment is about 550, with a student-teacher ratio of 8 to 1. The school is affiliated with the Episcopal Church (United States). It is administered by a board of trustees and is the oldest all-girls school in Hawai'i.[1] More than half the faculty have advanced degrees, and virtually 100% of graduates attend four-year colleges and universities across the country.
