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.

Saturday

5/31: I (S)CREAM FOR LEADERSHIP!

Once again, a school year came to a close, but to open the new year, the annual S.A. leadership conference went off with a SCREAM!  With help from 11 dedicated alums to facilitate and 12 incoming officers, a total of 63 students were treated to a day of energizers and workshops, hopefully to improve their leadership skills for the coming school year.  Many of the participants were presidents or heads of various organizations.  We also welcomed middle school guests from Moanalua and Kamehameha!  Special thanks go out to all the advisors who gave up their Saturday to help:  Ms. Gail Vannatta (KMS), Ms. Renae Villa (MMS), Ms. Lachelle Sablan (MoHS c/o 2015), Ms. Lauren Kiyono (MoHS c/o 2016), Mr. Justin Kohara (MoHS c/o 2017), and Ms. Maggie Chiu (MoHS c/o 2018).
