Aloha 5B Haumāna and Ohana,

It seems that Hurricane Ana is moving away from the Big Island as I type, but please be aware that Flash Flooding may still be happening!   A great day to get extra ohana time at home with extra-curricular activities probably canceled, time to catch up and “talk story” about the latest happenings in class,  time to have family movie day at home, time to do some extra chores :0, time to work on genius hour research (hint, hint), read to meet genre/self-set reading goals, or time to just relax…and stay dry indoors!  Whatever it may be, BE SAFE…you matter!  As a reminder, magenta color is for students-a call for action, blue color-attention ohana.
