Kilauea should be fine.
But
Krakatoa
Vesuvius
Mt St. Helens
are also very good in case you can't find the info you are looking for.

There are several types of volcanoes, some with "mild", continuous eruption (like the Hekla in Iceland, or the ones in Hawaii), some with violent ones (Mt. Etna in Italy, Mt St Helens in the US).
Good luck on your report!

Mt. St. Helens has lots of information. USGS monitors it realtime. See link

Krakatoa is a good one. Very destructive.
Etna and Pinatubo are good, too. Personally, I'd go with Mt. Saint Helens.

For my money, I'd go with Paricutin in Mexico. The locals watched it essentially being born, and scientists were able to observe it in its formative stages in 1943. Fascinating....

You could try Mt. Etna, which I think actually erupted this year.
