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.

10/6: WHAT AN ADVENTURE!

It was AN ADVENTURE IN LEADERSHIP for 115 students from grades 3-8 from the Moanalua Complex schools.  This year's "Winnie-the-Pooh" themed conference included students from Moanalua Middle and Elementary, and Red Hill, Salt Lake, Shafter Elementary Schools.  Participants spent the day learning new ice breakers and energizers, meeting strategies, leadership skills and team building activities.  And of course, the best part of any conference is LUNCH!  Thank you to all Executive Council members and all the student council advisors for chaperoning!  We hope that all participants were able to take away something from the conference that they can use in their roles as student leaders!
