Monday message 01.17.2022
Aloha to the Alaka’i O Kaua’i Charter School learning community. I hope this message finds you and your ohana in good happiness and health as we move deeper into the month of January.
We greatly appreciate your support of our unique charter school, and it was exciting to have our DreamUp to Space project-based learning activity and Team Ko featured on Hawai’i News Now, the Honolulu Star Advertiser, Hawai’i Public Radio, and The Garden Island Newspaper in the last week. We will continue forward with Team Ko opening applications for other learners at our school who wish to join the Launch Team. These applications will be made available through a ParentSquare message later this week.
Alaka’i O Kaua’i Charter School is looking to expand our Educational Assistant pool of employees. If you or someone you know are interested in working at one of the fastest-improving schools in the state of Hawai’i, then please send a resume to the school and we will follow up with a connection. We have a variety of Educational Assistant positions open that are part-time, full-time, and substitute.
Jog-A-Thon will be coming to campus again on Friday, January 28th. The event was moved to School Choice Week so we can end the week with a fun celebration. The forms will be coming home from the school this week and it is possible that we may be able to invite parents to participate depending on COVID mandates.
Mahalo for your support of our unique charter school and malama pono.
