This letter is to share more recent updates with you.

GRAB 'n GO MEALS BEGIN ON APRIL 1

Link https://bit.ly/33XM7ZR

​

 On Wednesday April 1, we will be joining the list of schools who are providing breakfast and lunch free of charge to children 18 years or younger, regardless of eligibility for free or reduced price meals. Per USDA requirements, parents or caregivers who pick up a meal must be accompanied by the children who are receiving the meal. There will be no personal interaction between HIDOE employees and the community. All meals will be placed in containers. Meals will be located outside of the cafeteria. Gates will open at 7:25 am. Please help us get the word out. 

​

 Traffic Flow: To best accommodate the flow of traffic we highly recommend the following route: From Kamehameha Hwy. enter the school through the first gate. 2 lanes will be available. Pull up to the first cone in your lane. Stay in your vehicle, pick up grab-n-go student meal and exit on the back road towards Homestead Rd. Merge with cars exiting the school and drive with Aloha. 

​

 Breakfast Service Hours: 7:30-8:00 am. For food safety, meals must be consumed by 10:00 am Lunch Service Hours: 11:30-12:00 noon. For food safety, meals must be consumed by 2:00 pm 

​

LEARNING PACKET PICK UP BEGINS ON APRIL 7

 Our teachers have been preparing enrichment and learning activities that will be shared with our students and families starting April 7. Many of our families have access to email, phones, laptops, ipads and devices and will receive activities digitally. For our families who do not have access to email or technology, the option to have activities printed will be made available through our Packet Pick Up Service. 

​

 Packet Pick Up Service will be on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8:30 am-10:00 am beginning April 7. Using the same traffic flow for grab and go meals, we are asking our families to enter the school through the first gate closest to Kamehameha Hwy. The packets will be sorted by family last name. Pull up to the cone with the first initial of your family’s last name. Stay in your car and we will bring the packet to you. Cars will exit through the second school gate.

​

EARLY ACCESS TO PACKET PICK UP ON GRAB AND GO MEAL MORNINGS:

​ On the days of packet pick up, we will be allowing families “early access” to get packets when they come for grab and go meal service from 7:30-8:00 am on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Lane 1 (inside lane) will be for grab and go and packet pick up service. Lane 2 (outside lane) will be for grab and go meals only.

 Packet pick up will be in front of the administration office. Once meals are picked up in front of the cafeteria, families will be asked to drive down to the office to pick up any packets. Either lane can be used by all community members. 

​

ABOUT ENRICHMENT AND LEARNING ACTIVITIES:​

 The activities that are being prepared are to help maintain and enrich your child’s learning while encouraging routines and establishing a sense of normalcy to their day. Activities will not be graded and students will be able to complete them within their own home learning schedule. Completed work will not be returned back to school at this point. Students are asked to keep their work until further notification of our school year. 

​

 In light of the extenuating circumstances we continue to face, please know that our commitment to education and the health and well being of your child is of utmost importance and value to us. Our teachers and staff are looking forward to engaging again with our students and families.
