#Haʻikū Elementary School

Hāna Elementary School’s new pre-K classroom is rooted in Hawaiian values and language. The new classroom brings the total number of the Executive Office on Early Learning Hawaiian language public preschool classrooms in the state to four.

After diverting nearly 2,000 pounds of textile waste from the landfill last year, The Sewing Hui, a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization dedicated to sewing for the Maui community, is expanding its efforts this year with new educational programs, deeper sustainability goals, and a growing island-wide impact.
