Aloha e nā ʻOhana! 

A reminder that there is no school from Wednesday, 4/12/2023, to Friday, 4/14/2023. 

We highly encourage you to enjoy the many events, crafts, and learning opportunities this week for the 60th Annual Merrie Monarch Hula Festival in Hilo.  Most are free and open to the public.  It is a time to celebrate as well as appreciate our Hawaiian culture and arts, support local businesses, and honor King David Kalākaua, who was known as “The Merrie Monarch” and responsible for restoring Hula and the Hawaiian identity. 

We will see you back on campus on Monday, 4/17/2023. 

“E ola mau ka hula!” – “Long live hula…the heartbeat of the Hawaiian people!”
