Aloha Ali'iolani Families!

It’s hard to believe how quickly the first quarter of the school year has gone by! We have already experienced so many wonderful moments with your children, including our memorable school picture day, our annual Open House, the daily morning Mile Run, JPO, and Student Council. We couldn’t be prouder of their dedication and school spirit. It has been a fantastic start, and we are very grateful for all the support you have shown as parents.

We had our first FOA and SCC meeting on 9/24/25! Thank you to the families who are volunteering their time, 'ike and na'auao. We discussed a few events for the upcoming school year. If you are interested in joining our FOA and SCC the next meeting will be on October 15th, Wednesday, 4:30 pm in the library. 

As we approach fall break, we want to assure you that your child's teacher has planned activities and exciting field trips for the remainder of the school year. We are all looking forward to continuing this journey of learning and growth together. We hope you enjoy a safe and relaxing fall break with your family, and we can't wait to welcome your child back on Monday, October 13th!

A few school-wide reminders:

• If you are a parent volunteer, please sign in at the front office to obtain a visitor badge before going to the classroom.

• For safety purposes, students will only be released on transportation that complies with all Hawaii Revised Statutes and City and County ordinances. This was also mentioned at Open House when HPD spoke.

• Please remind your child not to share their snacks and lunch with other students due to allergies.

• Cell phones and smart watches need to be turned off during school hours. If you need to contact your child during school hours, please call the front office at 808-730-0700.

• Refer to our school planner for clarification of dress code expectations.

Thank you for all that you do. We look forward to providing your child with the best support and education while at Ali'iolani. 

Mahalo,

Mrs. Ichiyama
