Hi Everyone,
Congratulations on a job excellently done for our Dedication Ceremony.  These events take a lot of planning, time and energy-but the result was amazing!  We have an amazing school with amazing people-Be proud!
Our new yard duty schedule will begin on Monday!  Please review with your students and for yourselves the expectations that were covered at last week’s faculty meeting. PLEASE also remember to wait by the gates of the field area between D and E buildings for students to come out from the cafeteria. The adult supervisors have been informed to look for the teachers and start sending out students. Also, as required by fire code, ALL gates to Laulima court must be in the OPEN position when students are occupying that area.
The EA-Run Copy Centers will begin operation on Monday.  The blue slips for copies are in Buildings F and E and library.  The lavender lamination slips are all in the library workroom.
We are confirmed for our lockdown, shelter in place, fire and evacuation drills for our safety week on Nov. 23 and Nov. 25.  I will send detailed information to you via email.  Please keep this in mind for planning activities that week.  Lockdown and Shelter in place will take about 15 minutes on 11/23 and Fire and Evac should take about 1 hour on 11/25.  We would start both at about 8:15 am.

 ACTION: Please read and follow all directions in the email that Jill sent on 11/7/15- Titled: Subscribing to Faculty & Staff Blog.

Hi Students,
Thank you for your outstanding behavior on Friday for our dedication ceremony!
DO NOT WALK ON THE PIKO grassy area in the center of our campus!  We are still working on growing the grass in this area!
For recess, you will be learning about some new activities like football throwing (no tackle or flag), soccer, and dancing.  There will be rules to follow for the new sections open to us on campus and you must stay in the designated areas.  
Mrs. Dunn and Mrs. Pamatigan

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!
