Information for Faculty and Staff
Teachers, enjoy your Teacher’s Institute Day on Monday!

Thank you for talking to students about how to stay healthy.  It is OK to use cleaning wipes in your classrooms to wipe down surfaces and electronics as needed. Encourage students to wash hands, sanitize thoroughly and to cover their mouths when coughing or sneezing.  Stress the importance of not sharing food or snacks. Please keep yourselves healthy too!

Mrs. Dunn will be on a well-deserved vacation this week.  
We wish her a Happy Birthday and an enjoyable time with family.  
C-U real soon! 

COME JOIN PAINT AFTERNOON! (Like Paint Night, except during the day) (and no drinks or food) (But still super fun!!!)  We are rapidly approaching our Seussical performances and still need help with the set and props. You just need to bring yourself to B101 after school on Friday to enjoy some fantastic company with teachers and do a little bit of painting.  SOOOOO easy, even a VP can do it! You just have to be able to sit on the floor for a while and be able to get up afterwards. But I’m certain the strong Zumba experts there would have helped me up if I got stuck! Come down this Friday to be a part of the Seussical Experience!

Would you like to share some inspiration, a laugh or a successful or even embarrassing moment with others?  Complete this form for your submission: What makes Ho'okele Special...YOU!  

Enjoy the week-Stay Healthy!

Information for Students
Stay Healthy!  We want you in school so take good care of yourself.  Wash your hands often and use hand sanitizer. Cover your coughs and sneezes and help stop the spread of germs that can get you sick!  Help keep your classrooms clean by wiping off your desks and electronics as directed by your teachers. Remember we do have a no sharing policy for snacks-this also helps to prevent the spread of germs and can keep you from becoming sick.  Tell your parents when you are sick to decide if you are well enough to come to school.

Enjoy your week and have a Happy Valentine’s Day!  You are all very special to us!

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. Our PCNC, Kilohana Motas, and our active PTA work tirelessly to create meaningful volunteer opportunities that benefit our entire school.
