There are very, very few private schools here:
I think there is 1 private school on the Kona side, but they were possibly closing.

I don't really want to extend a discussion about whether there are a few, enough, or many private schools on the Big Island, so this will be my last post on the subject. It does appear a child can get a good start in life educated on the Big Island, which will allow them to continue their studies in college and perhaps obtain an advanced degree. Then if they choose, return here qualified to work in astronomy at one of the observatories.
