As this year comes to a close, the Class of 2015 will participate in a service activity on Thursday, May 31, 2012. Freshmen will be transported to Aloha Aina O Kamilo Nui where they will be working to help beautify the area and learn more about their mission of restoring "the Kamilo Nui Valley watershed as a sustainable, culturally and community-based model for agriculture land use and management, inspired in part by the Hawaiian traditional values of ahupua‘a for the benefit of future generations." In doing so, one of the many benefits is that the students have this time to bond as a class and continue building relationships with each other.
Students will return to campus at about 10:45 AM where they assist with folding graduation announcements, playing basketball, relaxing,showing their appreciation for each other and celebrating all that they've achieved in their freshmen year. There are no classes on this day but it is a special activity day for each division.
For more detailed information on this service day and for the waiver form for Aloha Aina O Kamilo Nui, the handout can be downloaded from the High School Documents page. If you have any questions, feel free to contact your child's advisory teacher or Freshmen Division Coordinator, Mrs. Heidi McGivern, at 952-7266 or via email, heidi.mcgivern@maryknollschool.org
