We hope you have an exciting last week of school before the Fall Break!  You should be very proud of all you have accomplished this quarter of in person learning/full day learning.  Did you know that our students in grades K-2 have NEVER had a full year of “normal” school?? So for many of you, this is your first in person school experience!!  It has been quite an adjustment after such a long time of distance and hybrid learning and half days; but we finally are here and we are so PROUD of our Ho‘okele students!  

Keep up the excellent work when we return for Quarter 2.  


Fall break is October 11-15, 2021.  We will see you all back in school on Monday, October 18, 2021.

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.
