!
!
Dear Holomua Elementary School Parents,
!
2014 - 2015
Would you like to share and promote your profession to our 5th and 6th graders at Holomua? If you said yes,
then Career Day is the perfect day to share for you! You can help educate our students about the vast array
of careers available. We would love your participation and would appreciate your time.
!
Career Day consists of groups of students rotating to various speakers to get a range of options for their
future. We will rotate the groups (consist of 15-20 students) within a two-hour block and each session will
be around 20 minutes. We know your work time is valuable and would appreciate any time you can provide
us. The Career Days are listed below, so you can check your calendar.
!
!
February 13, 2015 (Friday) from 9:30AM – noon (Green/Yellow track)
March 20, 2015 (Friday) from 9:30AM – noon (Red/Blue track)
!
!!
The counseling department has been coordinating the annual Career Day for the past few years and we are
always looking for volunteers to share about their career. If you or someone you know would like to be a
speaker, please send this form back to the counseling department. If you have any questions, please feel
free to call Lisa Tominaga at 685-9100 x309.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT WITH OUR HYGIENE DRIVE!!
Through our partnership with the Hawaii Community Action Program
(HCAP), the Student Council decided to collect hygiene products
(instead of canned foods) to assist with job readiness. The students
were informed that their hygiene products would benefit people in need
that are being assisted in job placement. Proper hygiene is a very
important part of job readiness. Thank you to everyone for helping us
donate over 2,400 products. !
!
CONGRATULATIONS TO:!
Top class - Mrs. Ching's 1st grade class - over 350 products!
Top track - Yellow Track - over 1,000 products!
