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.

5/27: AN ADVENTURE IN LEADERSHIP!

Leadership Conference!  We can say how much fun it was, how much we learned, and how many friends we made, but nothing says more than pictures.  If you attended, hopefully you are in at least one picture below!  This year, we also included guests from Moanalua, Kamehameha, and Aliamanu Middle Schools as well as Moanalua High School for a total of 73 participants!  Thank you to all the advisors from each school as well as our alumni facilitators without whom this event could not happen.  And thank you to all participants, too!  Everyone involved gave up a Saturday to participate!  We sincerely hope that the activities will be useful in future school level events!
