Superintendent's Message Furlough Days

On October 20 the Hawaii Government Employees Association ratified a two-year contract with the State of Hawaii.

This means that HGEA employees along with teachers and students will not report to work and school on furlough Fridays. So don't forget, there is no school on October 23rd for students.

(Furlough Fridays for the remainder of 2009: November 6, 20; December 4, 11, 18)

Furloughs will require all of us to work together as a community in the best interests of Hawaii's keiki. We invite you to visit our web site at hawaiidoe.org for furlough information.

Mahalo for your continued support of Hawaii's public schools and students.

 
Federal Survey Cards Due Now
All parents and guardians who received federal survey cards need to return them to the main office ASAP. Families are selected randomly and, if their circumstances qualify, the school receives extra funds from the federal government.
 
After School Tutoring

Back by popular demand! Tutoring will be offered again this year from 1:30-2:30 p.m. each Wednesday starting on Sept. 30th on the patio directly behind the main office. If you have a student who needs help in math, reading, writing, etc...please make sure they come, even if you have to meet them after school and bring them! Snacks will be provided. We can also use more reading, math, literacy, writing tutors each week, so if you have the time, please come and help out. Also, if you have a student who is advanced in math and English and can help tutor other students, please tell them to come out and help. If they are faithful volunteers, I will be more than happy to write them a recommendation letter for their scholarships. Let's all work together and fill the patio with successful teachers and learners!
