Dear Kahalu`u School Ohana:

Keep in mind the many accomplishments we have had throughout the year and enjoy your well deserved Summer Break. As you prepare for the coming school year, keep in mind our motto, "Mauka makai Ha`aheo o Kahalu`u," from the mountains to the sea, the PRIDE of Kahalu`u. Show your school pride by purchasing our new school shirt which honors the school's most important role in educating the children of the Kahalu`u community. They are our future.

The final word is that the first day of school for students is Monday, August 2, 2010 which is a full day. For those of you who will be using the school bus services, please contact the bus company. There are some changes for students who will be in grade 6 so please contact Gomes Bus Company before school starts.

We are looking forward to seeing you at the First Night Open House on Wednesday, July 28, 2010. You may purchase the school shirts in Room A-1 from 3:00 pm. Class visits are at 4:00, then at 5:00 there will be staff introductions and dinner for all provided by Representative Jessica Wooley. Please plan to join us.
Mrs. Naomi Matsuzaki

Achieve 3000's Summer Literacy Contest
Instructions to Participate in Achieve 3000's Literacy Contest
This summer, help improve your child's literacy by participating in the Achieve 3000's Summer Literacy Contest. Students who participate can win a free MP3 player—and improve reading skills with the same great technology program they've been using all year long: KidBiz3000.
Reading nonfiction over the summer is a great way to make steady progress developing literacy skills and experience personal growth. Students used this program during the school year and Achieve3000 invites you to encourage your child to continue using it over the summer—anywhere a computer is connected to the Internet.
Achieve3000 will be giving away one MP3 player in every state. The individual student who completes more activities than anyone else in your state will win a brand new MP3 player. Click on the link above for information on how your child can participate in Achieve 3000's Summer Literacy Contest.
