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.

9/21: BOOK DRIVE PROJECT A SUCCESS!

First project of the year is a first for SA as well!  Book Drive!  In all the years we have been doing service projects, SA has never done a book drive.  Other clubs have done some, but never SA.  So this year, we changed all that and held a book drive that ended in August, and sorting and delivery took place in September.  We gathered three large boxes of books, about 200 in total.  They were sorted as children's and "mature" books.  The children's books were donated to Moanalua Elementary.  The "mature" books went to Salt Lake Public Library.  Thank you to the officer crew who publicized and helped to sort and deliver.  In retrospect, we should have held in longer than a week, but it was a success nevertheless.
