Mission statement
It is the mission of Hawaii Preparatory Academy’s Marine Studies Program to contribute towards the health of our coral reef ecosystems and its inhabitants through education, research, and advocacy, working with students and community members to actualize their passion and commitment to a healthier marine environment. Our scuba program enables students to explore our coral reef system in a safe and minimally invasive manner.
The video below is an example of an HPA student working on her Capstone Senior Project creating a photographic catalog of Hawaiian nudibranchs found in the area just north of Kawaihae Harbor, Hawaii Island, Hawaii.
