Molokaʻi High School is located on a 27-acre (110,000 m²) expanse in a Hawaiian Homestead community approximately seven miles from Kaunakakai town where the state and county offices, hospitals, doctors' offices, banks, library, family-owned grocery stores and gas stations are located. All four elementary schools and one intermediate school feed into this single public high school on Molokaʻi. During the 2004–2005 school year, the Department of Education separated the Intermediate School from the High School, creating two distinct schools on the Ho'olehua campus.
