Hi Everyone,

It’s official!  We’ve hired a Vice Principal.  Please welcome to our staff, Melinda Pamatigan our new Vice Principal.  Her official start date is July 6th.  Please introduce yourselves as you step foot on campus.  As she gets settled, you will be hearing less and less from me and more and more from her (haha).  

We have also hired a Health Aide, please welcome Lene Bernardo.  

The North Parking lot is now available for you to park in.  Our temporary office is now at the actual school site.  The phones in select offices in the Haku bldg is operational.  Phones in other rooms will be installed once furniture has been placed.  Please take a look at Google Classroom Assignment #18-All Staff-Phones.  You must dial the 7-digit extension (all seven digits) to reach someone on the system.  To dial off-property, dial the access code "8" then the external number.

16’ markerboards are being installed in classrooms.  Shortly after the projectors will be installed.  Do NOT block this wall!

I have posted 4 new Google Classroom Assignments:
  • 18-All Staff- Phones
  • 19-All Staff-Chrome Browser
  • 20-Classroom Teachers & Support Staff-Classroom Map- Please do this assignment ASAP.  If not, you’ll be stuck with a phone place in a default location.
  • 21-All Staff-Transitioning from Lotus Notes to Gmail

June 23 is the projected turnover date for the Mea‘ohi Building.  You may plan to move in on June 23.  If your spouse/friend is helping you move in, they do NOT have to be trained by Kiewit or wear the PPE IF everyone travels the path through buildings starting with Mahi‘ai walking through that floor directly into Mea‘ohi.  Only adults may assist.  

Please contact me if you need any help with any of the following:
  • Weebly Classroom Website (must be up by the 1st day of school)
  • Google Drive, Calendar, Mail
  • Google Classroom

This Wednesday marks Administrative Professionals Day, and we want to take a moment to sincerely recognize and thank our exceptional office staff. Their dedication and support extend far beyond the expected, touching every corner of our school. From cheerfully greeting families – both the friendly and the more challenging – to ensuring the smooth execution of every event, our office team is truly the backbone of our school. They arrive early, stay late, manage our supplies, process our paychecks and scan our lunches, and, above all, always help to ensure the well-being of our students. Thank you for all that you do! In addition to celebrating our administrative professionals, this week we also gratefully acknowledge the vital contributions of our campus volunteers.
