History
Pearl Harbor was established in 1956. The school was surrounded by military housing in the late 1950s. As time went on enrollments decreased due to the opening of other schools around the area.

The school was visited by President George W Bush on 23 October 2003. During the visit Laura Bush read to a second-grade class to promote her reading initiative.
Funding
In 2003 the Hawaii Senate voted $2,500,000 to plan, design, and construct a library for the school.
