My Project
My students are the heart of our classroom, and their vibrant energy and connection to our ahupua'a inspire me every day. I want to create a space where they feel truly at home and ready to learn.
This project focuses on transforming our classroom into a cozy learning environment.
I want to bring the warmth and comfort of home into our space, creating a sense of belonging and connection. Each item is carefully chosen to evoke the beauty and tranquility of Hawaii, fostering a calm and engaging atmosphere.
For example, the carpets will create a comfortable space for reading and group work. Additionally, the native plants will not only bring a sense of comfort, but also remind them of the beautiful landscapes they see every day.
By incorporating these elements, I aim to create a learning environment where students feel safe, supported, and inspired. I believe that a cozy, familiar space will not only enhance their learning experience but also strengthen their connection to their community and the unique beauty of our island.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
