As the Department’s primary publication, the newsletter strives to live up to the meaning of ha‘aheo—to cherish with pride—by bolstering and sustaining pride in public education and touting the successes happening across our system. 

Our weekly newsletter includes a standing column from the superintendent, important announcements and other current information. Each issue is organized into standing or rotating sections including: #HIPublicSchoolsProud bright spots, a weekly roundup of news media coverage of programs and initiatives, a HIDOE trivia pop quiz, a monthly column from Parents for Public Schools Hawaiʻi, student voice columns, staff spotlights, alumni spotlights and a monthly feature of new and exciting school meal initiatives in our cafeterias.
