Good morning Lion ‘Ohana,
I have several announcements for this week:
#1. Panorama Student Survey: Students in grades three through five will be taking our Panorama Student Survey this week. Their teacher will be instructing them on how to access the survey on-line. They will be taking it during their class time. Students will be receiving an email with their own access code. Please inform your child s/he will be getting an email from either Kelly Paradeza or Theresa Shiira. Your child's feedback on how s/he feels about our school and his or her teacher is highly valuable for us. We are listening.
#2. 11/20 Waiver Day and Flu Clinic: This Friday, 11/20 is our Waiver Day and Flu Clinic. Students have no school that day. Those who signed up to take their flu shot will be receiving an email with their appointment time. Please arrive at your scheduled time. This week Superintendent Dr. Kishimoto featured Kalihi Waena lion Nicole Araña who is now a senior at Farrington High School. Her senior project was on the flu. Please take the time to watch this important video at https://vimeo.com/476077173
#3. Opt-in for distance learning. Your child’s teacher will be contacting you to ask whether you would like your child to continue learning from home. Please know that the decision you are committing to is for the remainder of the school year. Forms to opt-in for distance learning are at the office or you may go to https://bit.ly/ContinueDL to print your own.
#4. Hawaii Keiki Health Hotline: The DOE now has a FREE and confidential health hotline for students. Interpreters are available. The number is (844) 436-3888. The hotline is available Monday - Friday from 8 am to 3 pm. The flier will also be on our website.
On behalf of Mr. Larkin, our staff, and myself, I hope you have a wonderful and safe weekend. Thank you for your partnership and your support. As always, remember: We are the lions. We are the future!
Gratefully,
Mrs. Heyler
