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.

2/20: BELLA PROJECT A MUTUAL BENEFIT!

This evening's service project started out to be just that.  Just another service project.  But once there, at Central Union Church, we found ourselves in a sea of lightly used (probably only once) prom dresses, shoes, make-up, and accessories!  The only thing better would have been if it was at a chocolate factory!  Of course, there was work to do, sort the dresses by size and color, display the shoes and make-up, but it was FUN work.  Plus, we knew that the Bella Project is a good cause, an event for girls who might not be able to afford a new prom dress.  The event actually takes place tomorrow, but tonight was the big set-up.  We hope that the girls who attend can find something nice to wear to their proms!  This is definitely a repeat project next year!

Getting final instructions for the evening!

Then.....it was time to sort shoes,

.....make up and accessories,

.....and of course, the gowns in every size and color!

Thank you to the Bella Project!

And thank you to ALL the volunteers!
