The Hawaii State Department of Education announced today the continuation of enrichment and distance learning through May 28, the last day of the 2019-20 school year. All HIDOE employees continue to work remotely with the exception of those who are considered essential and must perform their duties at a campus or office.

Traditional commencement ceremonies at public and charter schools will be replaced with alternative celebrations for the class of 2020 due to safety concerns and social distancing guidance. Schools will honor their seniors through different models of celebrations, which will be announced next week.

This week’s episode features two HIDOE leaders from Hawaii Island. Join us as Hilo-Waiakea Complex Area Superintendent Esther Kanehailua and Hilo High Principal Jasmine Urasaki discuss distance learning — past, present and future.

Frequently asked questions from parents, teachers, and students regarding Distance Learning and Enrichment Packets. This article will continuously be updated as more questions are asked.

Aloha Students of Hilo High School! Fourth quarter will be starting very shortly. Since we are unable to meet traditionally on our campus, we must prepare distance learning opportunities for you all until we are able to return to classes on campus. To ensure that everyone has access to a form of distance learning, please complete this survey immediately. Thank you in advance for your assistance. Stay safe!

Online Distance Learning for Quarter 4 begins on Monday, March 30, 2020. Physical Enrichment Packets will not be available this week. Stay Tuned!
