My Project

Our class can get pretty hot during the day and would like to focus more on the learning. Temperature regulation is also very helpful in a science classroom when it comes time to do some lab work. It’s also embarrassing to be in front of the class with sweat falling down or soaking our shirts. Let’s avoid the discomfort and enjoy a cool environment instead!

Our school’s mission is emphasize hands-on learning and academic success where every student is known, valued and loved, using community partnerships and resources while instilling traditional cultural values.

I believe partnering with donors choose can help us achieve students that feel known, valued and loved by donors like you! The school is small enough where every grade level is a science class of mine.

’O Hawai‘i ke kahua o ka ho’ona’auaoa

Mahalo nui from Hawai’i which is a foundation of our learning!
