Hopefully
you saw coverage of our awesome Waimea Aloha Garden dedication last Wednesday
on either Hawaii News Now with WHS alumni, Keahi Tucker, or read about it on
The Garden Island. Kudos to our hard-working
students, community partners, and Mr. Harding who made it all possible! Here’s a link to the Garden Island article:
I know there’s
much more to school than sports/athletics but you have to admit – we had a
great week! All of our teams did well,
starting with air riflery on Wednesday, bowling on Thursday, and cross-country
Saturday morning. Friday night’s
football win over Kauai HS at Hanapepe Stadium was a cause for celebration for
all of us die-hard Menehune supporters and then the girls’ varsity VB hard-fought
battle and win over Kauai HS on Saturday night was the perfect way to end the
week for anyone who bleeds blue! J

1.
School pictures will be taken this Wednesday
and Thursday during SS classes. Here’s
the original email from Mr. Toma:
It will take place September
9th (Wednesday) and 10th (Thursday) during all periods in Mr. Matsuyama's
room, B10A. Students will go during their social studies classes. If
you have any students who do NOT have a social studies class, please
inform/remind them that they need to get their picture taken during advisory/study
hall. MTV will make daily announcements also reminding students about when
and where to go.
Non-social-studies teachers will also have an opportunity
to take your picture during your prep period. Support staff will have
pictures taken in groups (cafeteria workers, custodial staff, etc). Please
make a conscious effort to take your picture as we would love to and want to
include everyone in the yearbook!
