Many cities, countries and artists are already onboard for a Live, Worldwide, #Jam4MaunaKea- SUN AUG 11 @ 11AM HST. ⁠ Might bearing witness to this epic moment on Mauna Kea inspire YOU to JOIN US in support? 2 ways:

⁠
2) ʻJAM 4 MAUNAKEAʻ CHALLENGE – While playing that video on one device, GO LIVE on Facebook or Instagram on another, singing or jamming along, WITH & FOR Mauna Kea – whether solo, with friends & ʻohana, or as part of a gathering in your community. ⁠
⁠
We challenge you to learn at least 1 chorus, if not all 3: “Ku Haʻaheo” + “Hawaiʻi Loa” in Hawaiian and/or English. ⁠
Link to lyrics, chords practice video & other details: https://www.puuhuluhulu.com/jam4maunakea

This video here is the same key & tempo as what youʻd jam to LIVE on the 11th at 11am, so you can also pre-record to this video and post that when others go live.⁠⁠
⁠

In this clip, Hawai’i’s favorite artists shared this medley to our kūpuna leaders of this movement, backed by 100’s of Aloha ‘Aina Protectors. Imagine the power of the collective if all of you across the globe did the same?

PLANNING AID FOR PARENTS
SCHOOL SCHEDULE

Aloha –

 Welcome back to another exciting school year.  We look forward to working together this year to ensure that HKM is a safe, respectful, and loving environment for all who learn, work, and visit our beautiful campus.  I personally look forward to meeting all of you and to help perpetuate the legacy started many years go during the creation of this kula. I believe it will be a rewarding and memorable school year.

 I hope you all had a chance to read the introduction letter from HKM Governing Board Chair Keoni Lee sent to you all yesterday.  I am happy to answer any questions and hope that the opportunities that I have been given during my educational career will allow me to serve this community to the best of my ability and with the distinction that our students, staff, and community deserve.  I humbly ask for your support in doing so.

Please find attached our schedule for the first week of school.  I apologize for the lateness of itʻs submittal but we were attempting to monitor the storms approaching us to ensure student and staff safety.  In itʻs current form, the schedule allows us some flexibility to adjust activities if inclement weather strikes. We will make every attempt to communicate any further changes with you in a timely manner.  Please also note our special activity on August 8 to be held at the State Capitol. Dude to timing and uncertainty of weather, all students will return to campus before being released for the day.

I look forward to our journey together.

HKM Campus

Aloha Makua & Haumana!

Monday will be our first day of the 2019-2020 school year!

We are excited for a year of new adventures as we welcome back old and new students.  Here are a few tips for parents:

• UNIFORMS: T-shirts (any color) will be the uniform of the day for the first week as we sort things out and malama the campus. New students are given some leniency with the uniform rules until they receive their uniforms (at La ʻOhana or shortly thereafter)
• Parking and Drop-Off: Please drop off and pick up haumana at the lower parking lot (Kalae). There is no drop-off in the on-campus lot or in the area above the gate or anywhere in the roadway fronting the school – we need to be good neighbors and not obstruct the roadway.
• Lunch: HKM does not participate in any State or Federally funded meal programs. There is no kitchen or cooking facilities on campus. For the first week, students are asked to bring a lunch from home. On-campus hot lunch is provided by a vendor after the first week of school – watch this space for more info.
• More: If we have missed anything, message us on Facebook, e-mail info@halaukumana.org, or call Monday morning.
