December Detention

Reminder to all students that we have two more Saturday detention days left this month, December 4th and 11th.  Students issued detention after December 9th will need to serve their detention in January 2011.  Don’t start off your new year on the wrong foot.  Don’t earn detention!

Good `Ano

Hats off to Colby C.  He showed good `ano in turning in a bracelet he found in the LC.  The owner of the bracelet was happy to get it back.  Colby displayed great `ano!

iPods on Campus

Aloha Students,

Just a reminder regarding mp3 players and iPods on campus.  Please note that these are all banned (per our Student and Parent Handbook, pg. 29).    The school has chosen to ban these items as they have been distracting to the learning environment.  Students bringing these items to school run the risk of having them taken away.  We have also had these items stolen from bags, which is another reason to not bring items like these to school.

Theft on Campus

Aloha All Students

I wanted to address a concern with all of you regarding recent thefts on campus. I am disappointed to report that over the last few week we’ve had thefts from fellow students and teachers. One of the most important values we try to instill in students is trust (Hilina`i). Students and teachers should not feel threatened from those within our school, but we are.

Please note that students caught stealing from fellow students and teachers will be dealt with firmly. Those students who witness these acts should report them to their counselor, teacher or administrator immediately.

Students, please be careful with your personal belongings. Place items in lockers or locked classrooms. Do not leave bags lying around campus, as there are students who are going through bags. Please leave valuable items such as iPods, iPhones, large amounts of money at home.

It’s unfortunate that we have to address this in the manner chosen, but unfortunately we have several students who are abusing everyone’s trust and hurting their fellow classmates.
