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.

6/2: NEW YEAR, ANOTHER CONFERENCE!

Another school year is kicked off with the S.A. Leadership Conference!  This year, the conference included new guests from other middle and high schools!  Besides Moanalua, Kamehameha and Aliamanu Middle Schools, our guest list expanded to Kaimuki and Roosevelt High Schools and Washington Middle School.  Having guests from other schools also offers the opportunity to gather different viewpoints and insights on various issues.  Of course, we would like to thank the nine Moanalua alums who came back to facilitate the workshops and activites:  Jannah Dela Cruz, Jessel Dela Cruz, Victoria Kaahaaina, Kiara Vicens, Lisa Nakamura, Kylah Highley, Ashley Whang, Jessa Dela Cruz, and Jennifer Park.  Their presence truly helps with the transfer of knowledge to the incoming council.
