Kauai is a small community and it's that family atmosphere that makes working on Kauai so great.

The students are unique being that they come from diverse ethnic and language groups. I enjoy getting to know them by learning more about their cultural traditions, language, and values.

My students have the biggest hearts. They root for each other through all they do. I have taught in other states and Hawaii's students are the best!!

Lanai is characterized by a tranquil pace, a harmonious blend of cultural richness, and a deep connection with nature. The island’s small population fosters a strong sense of community where aloha spirit thrives.

The Hawaii Department of Education’s greatest strength is the people within

I enjoy that these young students have such caring hearts. My students have all found ways to give back to the community in unique ways.

Diversity, every student is different in many ways and each brings a different perspective to the school.

I think the Hawaii Dept. of Education's greatest strength is the sense of Aloha.

The autonomy that each school has is empowering and it brings an individual culture to each school.

Our biggest strength is our resilience and helping nature. We are known for the Lava.

Our school is known to be small and personalized, we make sure our students get what they need.

The greatest strength of the HIDOE is the awareness of the Hawaiian culture and acceptance of diversity.
