My goodness - it's been three weeks since I updated this blog. It's been super busy, but I shouldn't be making excuses.
Summer break will be here next week, and we are hopeful that the buildings will be ready for occupancy by the time school begins on August 1 or shortly thereafter. We are crossing our fingers and toes and hoping!
We are still waiting for the windows to arrive for the library area; they should be arriving shortly. This is what is holding up the completion of that building so the sooner those windows arrive, the happier I'll be.
Here's the latest updates:
|
For the first time in 3 years, we were able to put on a May Day program for our school community. The only area large enough to hold that many people was in front of O-building. The May Day Committee came up with a creative solution, and students danced on the fire lane. |
|
Each grade level did a performance; first graders danced to Bruno Mars' "Count on Me" which exemplified our theme, "Share Aloha." |
|
Last week, we hosted visitors from the Department of Defense Office of Economic Adjustment who were on-island to discuss upcoming projects at Solomon Elementary and Mokapu Elementary. They also met with groups from the military as well as the Department of Education. They were impressed with our project! |
|
This is what the library circulation desk looked like on Wednesday when we took the visitors to that building. |
|
The easy section of the library will have these shelves and places where students can sit and read or look out the window. We're a little worried that there might not be enough shelf space for all of our books. We'll have to see when the building is complete and we start placing books on the shelves. |
|
The contractors connected the sidewalk to a concrete slab that we can use when students begin using this area for recess. We're thinking that hopscotch or four-square might work on that slab. Workers are waiting for approval before they finish the fire lane by the covered play court. |

The circulation desk has been installed! |
