• Cool Down Our Class!

  Funded Sep 18, 2024

  Mahalo nui loa to our generous donors! Your support has made a significant difference in our classroom. The new fans have transformed our learning environment.

  When the fans arrived, my students were overjoyed! One student exclaimed, "Wow, this fan is so strong! The cool air feels so good after playing soccer at recess."

  We are currently learning about Hawaiian observation called Kilo, which emphasizes paying close attention to the natural world around us. The fans have helped us understand how air movement affects our comfort and well-being. Students are actively engaged in observing how the fans create air currents and discussing how these currents impact the temperature and humidity in the classroom.

  We are incredibly grateful for your generosity. Thanks to you, our students can now learn in a more comfortable and conducive environment. We are excited to continue exploring and growing in our 'cooler' classroom!”
