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.

5/1: MAY DAY ON....MAY DAY!

It doesn't happen often enough, but this year's May Day program actually fell on May Day, May 1st!  And as always, Kumu Manutai and her Polynesian Dance Classes and Club put on an outstanding show!  At the end, Kumu declared that it was completely student run and that may be so, but we all know that SOMEONE needs to guide them, and that's definitely Kumu Manutai!  Thank you for a great show once again, and here are some scenes from the day!
