STUDENT SUCCESS STORIES

LINDSEY MATTHEWS

Ohana Alumna & Teacher

“Ohana believed in me before I believed in myself. With the support of my teachers and the encouragement to find my voice, I discovered a passion that shaped my future. Now, I get to give back to the place that gave me so much—teaching by day and performing on weekends as a vocalist.”

ELLIE SWAINHART

Ohana Alumna, Class of 2016

“Ohana’s flexibility allowed me to balance academics with my passion for dance. After graduating, I went on to study dance at the University of Florida, which prepared me to pursue my dream. Today, I’m proud to be living that dream as a professional dancer in New York City.”

GRAYSON SCHULER

Current Ohana Student

“A big congratulations to Grayson Schuler for volunteering to lead the Foundations group in collecting food items for our Partner in Education, Food For Thought.

Grayson has demonstrated exemplary leadership skills, outstanding organization, and a passion for promoting this cause with other learning groups. His dedication and initiative have truly made a difference in our school community. We’re proud of you, Grayson!”

LOUIS PETTY

Current Ohana Student, Class of 2026

“Ohana’s Rock on the Road program helped me find my voice. I’ve learned that music takes patience and hard work, but it’s worth it when I’m on stage connecting with the crowd—and I’m not worried about what anyone else thinks.”

TESTIMONIALS

I just wanted to let you know that my daughter is truly LOVING school!! Thought I would never see her do her homework independently! She always wanted me to help her along in the past. I still help with her studying, but as for the homework, she wants to try and do on her own! She even talks about what was discussed in school and what she is learning about. This has never happened before! The school is doing wonders for her!! We have you and your staff to thank!!

OHANA PARENT

Ohana service trips opened my eyes to the world. Traveling to Nicaragua helped me discover my passion for serving others, and this summer in Peru, I had the opportunity to provide medical care to the people of Cusco and the Sacred Valley. These experiences have shaped who I am and inspired me to continue making a difference wherever I go.

We have had such an incredible experience with Ohana Institute! The project-based learning approach has been a game changer for our children. Ohana has helped them not only grasp concepts more deeply, but also learn how to think critically, collaborate, and apply their knowledge in real-world ways.
The teachers are supportive, creative, and truly invested in each child’s growth. We’re so grateful for the community and the opportunities this school has provided. Ohana has been everything we hoped for and more.
