Waialua High and Intermediate School is a public intermediate and high school for grades 7-12 in the Waialua CDP in City and County of Honolulu,[1] Hawaii on the Island of Oahu.

The campus boasts the painted plastic mural A Waialua Day by Balazs Szabo and the mixed media sculpture Waialua from Ken Shutt’s Konohiki Series.

History

The school was founded in 1914 as a single-roomed school called Mokuleia School. In 1927 Andrew E. Cox donated 15-acre (61,000 m2) tracts of land for the school's campus, and it was renamed Andrew E. Cox Junior High School. In 1937 the school was enlarged to include a senior high school and was renamed to its present name.
