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.

11/11: CAMPUS BEAUTIFICATION A SUCCESS DESPITE WEATHER!





The day started out wet and rainy, but this did not deter the 150 (estimated) students and advisors that turned out for Campus Beautification Day.  The count is estimated since a couple of groups went straight to work and did not sign-in.  While certain outdoor projects obviously had to be postponed such as the repainting of the "M's" and picnic tables, almost all other projects went ahead including bench painting, litter pick-up, louver cleaning, window washing, gum scraping, and library pillar decorating.  Since the school was recently renovated, there were not a lot of MAJOR tasks to be done, but a few touch-ups never hurt.  Pictured above from top to bottom:  Litter is picked-up under the watchful eye of Ms. Ontai, G-courtyard benches are painted during a sunny break, seniors weed the planters by the cafeteria, juniors scrape gum from under cafeteria tables, and the art club prepares the Mene Square "M" for repainting at a later date.  (NOTE:  "M" Picture above was added on 11/21.)
