The event was full of surprises — students and staff were led in a “Flashmob” by Waianae High School student Kauhi Tomas. [Click image to enlarge]
The PALS programs range from arts, health, science, technology, sustainability, philosophy, social and cultural based clubs. Spaghetti, garlic bread, and green salad was served for dinner by the Nanakuli High and Intermediate Culinary Club. The student participants prepared, cooked, and served the food in accordance with the health code and food standards.
The festival had a large turnout, and attracted many students, faculty, staff, families and community members. “I wish these clubs were were around when I was going through elementary and high school. I was in awe of an 8-year-old who told me about PALS’ robotics program, and said that he wants to work for NASA,” said Stacy Garcia Jr.
Senator Shimabukuro’s office sends special thanks to Ms. Kay Fukuda for coordinating the event and sharing important updates about the program.
