Students will begin their regular class schedules tomorrow. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI think that it\u2019s very important for students to be in physical learning because we have our classmates around and it\u2019s just much easier when you have your friends, your classmates, and especially for what we went through, we can be together,\u201d said Lahainaluna junior class president RJ Arconado.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Carosso added that athletics and other extracurricular activities have resumed. \u201cFor a lot of our programs, especially extracurriculars \u2013 athletics and the band as well \u2013 being able to have a campus that is open for us means that those programs can continue,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A distance learning hub for K-8 Lahaina students will begin welcoming students on Tuesday, Sept. 19 at Citizen Church in Lahaina. The learning hub will provide distance learning students with in-person opportunities for teacher support and peer socialization, as well as access to meals, recess, social-emotional learning and other resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe know there\u2019s a really strong demand to have some kind of in-person opportunity on the west side and so we\u2019ve been working around the clock to look for opportunities for students,\u201d Rebecca Winkie, H\u0101na-Lahainaluna-L\u0101na\u02bbi-Molokai Complex Area Superintendent said.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe\u2019re working on three different learning hubs \u2014 one is a distance learning hub, and it\u2019s not a full-day experience but it at least gives them daily contact with an adult and some time to spend with her peers and for us to provide other services that are really important. We\u2019re also looking at a Kaiapuni (Hawaiian language immersion) education hub \u2026 and we\u2019re also looking to provide a hub for special education services.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An estimated 500 Lahainaluna High School students reported today to their temporary school site at K\u016blanih\u0101ko\u02bbi High for their first day of in-person instruction as a school. Lahainaluna students were welcomed by K\u016blanih\u0101ko\u02bbi students and staff cheering and waving signs at the drop-off area on campus.
