KHON-TV reports that the campus will have 215,000 square feet of space and will accommodate 1,650 students in grades nine to 12.
State Rep. Kaniela Ing says the community has been waiting since the 1990s for the school to be built. It is projected to open as soon as 2018 if the state legislature provides the necessary funding.
Lawmakers have appropriated $30 million for the first construction phase; another $50 million to $100 million will be needed to complete the campus.
