Information for Faculty and Staff Congratulations on surviving the first week of school!   We are in our 3rd year at Ho’okele with about 80 more kids than last year and about 300 more kids than our 1st year.  Some of our routines will take longer to get into place with all of the extra students to care for.  Thank you for being flexible in helping us establish lining up procedures, cafe procedures, recess expectations and assisting students with after school pick up areas.  We welcome any help after school or before school with helping to monitor the drop off, waiting and pick up areas.  Monday will be the first full day for all K students, so extra help is always appreciated! Our Welcome Back Assembly is THIS WEEK on Monday, August 14. Seating .  Please leave only a narrow center aisle and fit as many students as possible in 1 row.  This will be a full cafeteria with all students!  Can’t wait to see how we all look on the big screen!!...
