Information for Faculty and Staff
Please note the courts will not be available from Thursday afternoon until afterschool on Friday for a planned event Friday.  Thank you for not entering the area.
Thank you support teachers for providing coverage for movie days this week to help classroom teachers find time for their endless list of tasks!

Thank you to Liane Tanigawa for all of your efforts to coordinate such a successful Family Engineering Night last week.  We had a great turnout of families and it was awesome to see the support of our staff and volunteers who helped run such a well planned event.

Don’t forget to pre-plan for any absences whenever possible!  Our subs have been canceling or not picking up jobs-your help is truly appreciated and we know this is often beyond your control.  Let me know if you have names to add to our list as well. We have been updating when we get reports of subs that you feel are a good match for the school.

Have a great week!

We really enjoyed watching our 5th graders perform last week-it’s sad but exciting to know our 5th graders will only be Ho’okele students for 2 more weeks!  Enjoy your banquet!

We have a lot of fun events planned for the next 2 weeks of school!  Stay on your best behavior so you won’t miss out on any fun!

Student Council Elections rally is this week!  Good luck to our candidates!

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.
