LEADERSHIP: IT'S NOT ABOUT REWARDS; IT'S DOING WHAT IS RIGHT EVEN IF NO ONE ELSE ACKNOWLEDGES YOU!

2022 MOANALUA HIGH SCHOOL LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE (above) The Moanalua High School Executive Council is made up of fifteen volunteers. VOLUNTEERS! While officers are elected, they choose to run knowing that if they win, there is no physical reward, no letter grade, no incentive other than the pure satisfaction of doing a good job and representing the student body. At times, we achieve great success while at other times, we achieve somewhat less, but it is always a learning process. While we can take away much satisfaction from doing a good job, we can also learn from mistakes and try to better ourselves the next time. And so, at the end of our terms, while we do not earn a credit, a letter grade or even a certificate of achievement proving our accomplishments, we can take away the self-satisfaction in knowing that we did our best for the students, school and community, and that positive experience is something we can really use as contributing adult members of society.

3/13: GREEN DAY A PREVIEW OF ST. PATRICK'S DAY!

Ms. Morikawa's Period 5 achieves 100% participation.....
.....but so does Ms. Goo's Period 5!  Congratulations to both!
Officers get ready to pass out treats to greenies!
Jamie gives away a package of Skittles.  He has green PANTS!
With the way the DOE calendar works, St. Patrick's Day rarely falls on a school day.  So, we celebrate GREEN Day!  Typically, GREEN Day is the last exam day which this year fell on March 13.  A period 5 dress-up competition kicked off the day with a TIE!  For the first time ever, two classes simultaneously sent their entries with both classes having 100% participation.  So, both classes won.  Congratulations to Ms. Goo's and Ms. Morikawa's spirited period 5 classes!  Then, at break, officers decked out in green spread out across campus to give treats to anyone also dressed in green.  It almost seemed like there were more people dressed out in green on this day than people dressed in red on Valentine's Day!  HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY, and HAPPY GREEN DAY!
