For the next six months, Kamehameha Schools will be conducting an
extensive search for a new Chief Executive Officer. It's a process
that promises to be collaborative and fruitful. We'll get an update
from KS Board Chair, Connie Lau.
Sophomore
Biathlon
Each spring, the Kapalama campus Physical Education Department stages
a freshman run and a sophomore biathlon. The two events teach students
how to get fit and stay healthy.
He'eia
Fishpond
One of the highest technological achievements of ancient Hawaiians
was the loko ia or fishpond. Now a group of modern day young Hawaiians
is using that knowledge to provide a wonderful educational experience.
Kanu
o ka Aina
Hawaii's charter school movement got a well-deserved and badly needed
boost with the creation of a new Kamehameha Schools grant program.
We'll take you to Kanu o ka Aina, the first grant recipient.
Boarder's
Makahiki
Every year, Boarders at the Kapalama campus gather at Konia field
for the Makahiki Land Games. It's an opportunity for them to share
their culture while enjoying some friendly inter-dormitory competition.
Project
Graduation
Next, we join with the Class of 2003 and their rite of passage from
student to alumni. It is a joyous, tearful, emotional time and we
bid the graduates and their families our fondest aloha.
Ukulele
Pickers
Sit back and prepare to be impressed. The 7th and 8th grade musicians
you're about to see and hear are members of the Na Opio Hawaiian Ensemble,
performing the Brazilian song "Tico Tico".
