Even through distance learning, our Kula Waena finds a way to keep a special tradition alive, in celebrating our 8th grade class during an important tradition.
Watch our special virtual Lei Pāpahi for our Class of 2024 as they prepare to rise to Kula Kiʻekiʻe next year. While different, it was still a powerful and beautiful experience we were able to keep in place and elevate with our ʻohana tie-ing the kīhei for our haumāna.
Below, you can watch videos of reimagined events, highlights, and continued celebrations for the Class of 2024.
