Programs and results
What we aim to solve
Years of research have shown that Native Hawaiians lag behind in academic achievement, have lower graduation rates, and are severely under-represented in STEM education and professions compared to their non-Hawaiian peers. This gap in achievement increases as students move up through the educational system and has been partly attributed to Native Hawaiian cultural traditions of learning through a hands-on approach, as opposed to the Western educational model of explicit instruction and testing. Hawaiian charter schools seek to address this issue but often have limited resources and need additional support, especially in STEM education. MAF fills this gap by creating a “STEM-friendly” environment in a place-based and project-based context, suitable for addressing barriers to STEM education (e.g., math phobias, lack of exposure to the many fascinating and stimulating topics embodied in STEM).
Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Mahope O Ke Kula Ke A‘o Mau Ana
The goal of the Mahope O Ke Kula Ke A‘o Mau Ana (A continuation of learning after school) program is to inspire students and their facilitators from Native Hawaiian communities to achieve academic success in math and science through the experience of Hawaiian cultural values and practices with hands-on learning during and after the school year, intersession and summer breaks.
1. In-school science and math support for middle school students and teachers is provided through curriculum training and supplement, tutoring, teaching, and mentoring.
2. After school hands-on STEM and Hawaiian cultural experiences increase student knowledge of STEM content as aligned to the common core math and next generation science standards.
3. During intersessions, students are exposed to STEM by integrating math and science with Hawaiian cultural practices.

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
The overall goal is to increase student comprehension, appreciation and interest in STEM/STEAM fields.
By providing after-school activities, the program also aims to increase students' Social Cohesion Index, which measures factors considered to be Benevolent Childhood Experiences that improve resilience and well-being among youth.
The integration of tradition and culture in place-based activities seeks to not only increase engagement and academic achievement, but to also reconnect Native Hawaiian students back to the land and their culture.
