A lasting place for learning in West Maui

Who we are

An independent foundation with a long-term responsibility.

Established in 2010, the Maui Preparatory Academy Foundation exists for the benefit of Maui Preparatory Academy. The Foundation owns the land on which the school operates and is responsible for protecting that property and the charitable assets entrusted to it.

While the Foundation and the Academy share a commitment to education, they are separate organizations with distinct boards and responsibilities.

A shared purpose

Separate responsibilities.
One educational mission.

Maui Prep operates the school. The Foundation safeguards the assets that help make its mission possible.

The Foundation

Protects what supports the school

  • Stewards Foundation-owned land and assets
  • Administers and oversees the property lease
  • Preserves assets for educational use
  • Maintains independent governance and compliance

The Academy

Leads learning and school life

  • Operates educational programs
  • Supports students, faculty, and staff
  • Manages day-to-day school operations
  • Delivers the Academy's educational mission

The Foundation does not operate the school. It independently fulfills its legal and fiduciary responsibilities while remaining committed to constructive partnership.

Land & legacy

Protecting a place created for education.

The Foundation owns the two parcels totaling 21.85 acres at 4910 Honoapiʻilani Highway and leases the property to Maui Preparatory Academy. Recorded restrictions preserve the land for private pre-K–12 education and reasonably necessary supporting uses.

The land is more than a physical asset—it is the foundation upon which Maui Prep's educational future has been built.
