Congratulations to Pahoa Water Bottle Winners with Perfect Attendance

​Every ten days, we are doing drawings for Pahoa water bottles.  To be eligible, students must have perfect attendance for those ten days.  From each class, three winners will be drawn.  
 
The winners for this round are:
Leighla Cruz, Paris Hayes, Kanalu Wilkins Kapaa, Isaiah Naehu, Vai-Vai Casem, Kawehileimaileohalani Tam-Porter, Alysha Dalija Airinios, Noah Suissa, Christian Quahano, Chloe Tobin, Dominic Pertubal, Mehana Toledo, Lexus Balinbin, Ilian Nais and April Gamponia.
 
This year, Pahoa High and Intermediate School is focusing on attendance and wish for everyone to "Strive for Less than 5".  The Challenge 5 initiative is about keeping kids in school and we are asking for your help.  Help your students be absent no more than five times in the school year.  Students who are chronically absent (missing 9% or more of school) have difficulty keeping up with their classes.  Studies also show that students who have fewer absences in school are more likely to finish college quicker.  This can save thousands of dollars!  So please help us to help your student.
