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.

1/30: CONTINUING THE "LEGACY OF LIFE"

Haley demonstrates how to make a ribbon!
Alyssa and Sydney get right to work!
Last year's officers started a new project helping the "Legacy of Life" organization construct green ribbons for those who wish to show support for the program, and we decided to continue the effort this year.  The organization is involved in organ donorship at a critical time in Hawaii where, at the moment, there is no organ transplant facility available.  The project is simply constructing as many of the green ribbons/cards as possible.  Our goal is 1000.  Three more ribbon-making sessions are coming up:  February 2, 8, and 9, after school in the S.A. room so if you are reading this before any of these dates, stop by and help!
