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.

4/24: M.A.R.s WARs A VICTORY FOR THE LEUKEMIA AND LYMPHOMA SOCIETY!

Counting those pennies is a tedious job!
Officers take the buckets out during lunch to collect donations!

Make sure you put PENNIES into the Moanalua bucket!
On the surface, it was a Penny War between Moanalua, Aiea, and Radford (MARs) High Schools and ultimately, the "War" was won by Aiea.  Congratulations, Na Ali'i!  But the real winner was the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society (LLS) where the three schools agreed all donations would go.  All together, the combined school efforts raised $1029.26!  So, while the friendly competition was fun while it lasted, we all hope that the LLS can use the donation to further its cause!

FINAL RESULTS:
1st:  Aiea     -11600 points ($408.61 collected)
2nd:  Radford     -11884 points ($323.95 collected)
3rd:  Moanalua     -20548 points ($296.70 collected)
