Happy Holidays all!
Key Club is will be taking 8 students to the State Convention held on Oahu in February and need to fundraise about $4,000. We are selling Fundraiser Burritos for $8. Pick up is from now till December 20th at VERDEs in Kapaa Shopping Center next to Big Save.
If you have ever dined at Verdes, you know their burritos are huge and the owners are nice enough to work out a deal with us to make them affordable to you as well as beneficial to Key Club!
Its a large warm flour tortilla stuffed with beans (pinto), rice, cheese and your choice of their Verde Chile Braised Short Rib, or Al Pastor Chicken. Sorry, sold as is no substitutions, but we can opt out the cheese for dairy-free people.
and remember its only $8, if your a family of four thats a dine-out menu price of $32, including chips n salsa!!!! You can also get this burrito for take-out as well!!!
Email me and let me know how many tickets you would like, pick up is on your own, however if enough of you want a nice warm burrito for lunch, buy a ticket and we can organize a day next week that I can pick it up for everyone (delivery charge on me!)
Thanks for all your support!

Weekly Principal's Address 12-13-2010
This past week a revised "bell schedule" was shared for consideration. Proposed bell schedule brings together the many good ideas and honors the many years of hard work of our staff. Department heads are tasked to meet with their teachers to review and submit recommendations. All feedback will be seriously considered thru a transparent on-going communication process.
The creation of a new and better "bell schedule" is in our hands. As educators, we can no longer expect our students learn within an antiquated schedule that limits students' learning opportunities. We need to work together to create that sustainable schedule that provides more opportunities so that every student is truly "college and career" 21st century prepared. We can no longer spend precious time and energy pointing out the negatives as it must be balanced with constructive discussions and recommendations. Hawaii's Department of Education expectations are very clear....per our Department's Strategic plan, Race to the Top Grant reform commitment, and Board of Education Graduation Policy 4540.....students need more opportunities than our current 6 periods or 24 credits.
We all have important work to do...we will continue to face challenges...and we can't let them become excuses. I am confident that together we will be courageous in making our actions speak loudly in moving forward......our students deserve nothing less!
Community Presentation: On Monday, Dec. 13th, we will be sharing Kapaa High's SY 2011-12 Academic/Financial Plans with the our School Community Council and PTSA. You are welcome to attend and attached is the mtg information.
Faculty & Staff Meeting: A faculty and support staff meeting will be held on Wednesday, Dec. 15th @2:00 p.m. in the library. Agenda to follow shortly.
Leadership Meeting: I will be away from the office on:
Monday Dec. 13th 7 - 8:30 a.m. attending East Complex Principals' mtg;
Tuesday, Dec. 14th from 8 - 4:00 p.m. attending the Kauai Complex Area Leadership mtg. (Diane Ayre and Todd Harrison will be in charge).
Other Reminders:
Thursday, December 16th - Last "full" day of Instruction before winter break;
Friday, December 17th - Furlough Day;
Monday, January 3rd - Teachers' workday (no students); and
Tuesday, January 4th - Planning & collaboration Day for East Complex Schools (No Students).
As 2010 comes to an end and a new year quickly approaching.....take time to reflect for we have much to be appreciative and proud of! 2011 looks like it's going to be an even brighter year! Have a great week and remind our students to be safe!
