2024 Masayuki Tokioka Excellence in School Leadership Award
Principal Kawahara was nominated for the 2024 Masayuki Tokioka Excellence in School Leadership Award as one of the best principals of the year!! Only a total of two principals were selected from the entire Honolulu District. Considering all the amazing achievements happening at KKS in the past few years, Principal Kawahara definitely deserves this special recognition.
HEALTHY HABITS AT HOME THAT HELP CHILDREN SUCCEED AT SCHOOL
A local pediatrician recommends:
12 hours of sleep per night for elementary students. (10hr for middle school & 8hr for high school students).
60 minutes of vigorous exercise 3-6 days a week…although every day would be best
Screen time should be limited & kids should be off screens at least an hour before bed
