== This is an evaluation of the article of the article Hawaii State Department of Education. The article has eight sections, which are History, Board of Education, Relevant debates, Structure, Schools, See also, References, and external links. The article is lacking citations for information credibility. The cite can be improved by adding credible sources, more specifically in the relevant debates section.
