What's happening this week?

We’d like to invite each of our parents to the Students of Promise presentation by Kamehameha School’s Mervlynn Kitashima this Tuesday evening beginning at 5:30 pm in the Band Room.  Mrs. Kitashima has been the Parent Network Coordinator at KS for over 25 years and is coming here to share some insight on the social emotional growth of teenagers.  Hope you can all make it!




Also, hope you can come out and support our WHS spring athletes – boy’s volleyball has a big game tomorrow night in Kapaa that will determine who is the first round champ, golf, tennis, and track are all in full swing now.  Be sure to check the athletic calendar on the right to find out days/times of events.

Quarter 3 grades were due last Friday so report cards should be out soon.  We’re also finishing up our third round of STAR testing this week.  Please encourage your student to take these tests seriously as results will be evaluated and used with other data to create the list of students who will be placed into workshop classes next school year.

Have a great week everyone!
