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.

12/13: WINTER RALLY GOES ON DESPITE BLEACHER ISSUES!

The Winter Pep Rally was held even though the makai bleachers were not able to be pulled out completely.  But, 12 of the 15 rows were usable, so the majority were seated with the rest on the floor.  Floor seating will be rotated every assembly until further notice.  Still, it was an exciting rally as we acknowledged the State Champion Boys' Air Rifle team as well as the semi-annual First Hawaiian Bank "Be the One" award winners.  Team captains gave rousing speeches, and we concluded with an exciting class competition.  Thank you to all the Sophomores and Juniors who had to sit on the floor today.  Your patience is greatly appreciated!
