HMS has maintained small class sizes, with a maximum student-teacher ratio of 18:1. This allows their teachers an opportunity to provide as much guidance and instruction as possible.
Japanese-language classes are part of the curriculum at all grade levels. The campus offers facilities which include a gymnasium, swimming pool, library, and computer center. In addition, HMS offers extensive after school, holiday daycare, and summer-school programs.
In 2003, HMS announced the opening of a Buddhist high school, Pacific Buddhist Academy, which shares a campus with HMS.
