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.

4/28: MAY DAY 25TH ANNIVERSARY!

Time sure flies!  It has been 25 years since Kumu Claire Manutai started organizing an official May Day Program at Moanalua and over the years, the show has gotten better with every year!  Literally hundreds of student performers have graced the outdoor Mene Stage where it all began, to the gym floor where it eventually moved.  Through it all, the color and pageantry of each show was and still is professional quality.  In recent years, it has become so popular that a full dress rehearsal occurs the night before the assembly just for parents and friends.  Mahalo Kumu Manutai and the Polynesian Dance classes present and past for all the wonderful shows!
