Kamehameha Schools founder Ke Ali‘i Bernice Pauahi Bishop cared deeply for her people, her lands, and her culture. It is her lasting legacy that we will celebrate on her birthday, December 19. Below is a collection of Founder’s Day celebrations happening across the state, and in the case of alumni events, some on the continent. Events on each of the three KS campuses will be streamed live and the links will be available that day at ksbe.edu.
