As the Kamehameha Schools Maui campus celebrates its 20th anniversary this school year, all kumu and keiki, grades kindergarten through 12, came together on Friday, February 19, to celebrate the 20 years as part of the annual Pō‘alima ‘Ulu‘ula (Red Friday) festivities.
This year's Pō‘alima ‘Ulu‘ula featured an all-campus chapel service at Kahekili Gymnasium on the middle school campus to start the day, then a viewing of the film, Voyage: Into the Depths of Kanaloa, before the campus came back together for a lū‘au on the Kula Ki‘eki‘e field.
Unlike Pō‘alima ‘Ulu‘ula in the past, staff and students were encouraged to wear their blue and white 20th anniversary shirts for the occassion, coming together to celebrate the campus' milestone.
Kamehameha Schools’ policy is to give preference to applicants of Hawaiian ancestry to the extent permitted by law.
