Kubo agrees
there should be school drug testing, but that it should apply "to
all students at the entry level," and not just for extracurricular activities. "You
need some form of testing to identify the children who need help, and then
let's work on it from a prevention and treatment response, not law enforcement.
I'm not interested in putting children in jail."
"You need an effective form of education and prevention taught at each level.
Keep bombarding them until it's ingrained," he continued, stressing an even
more hard-line approach:
"Schools should
be able to force children into treatment programs."
School counselors
have told Kubo they have been trying hard to get children into programs, "but if the child doesn't want help, there's nothing they
can do," he said, adding he's also concerned that counselors can't let parents
know of drug problem because of privacy laws." We need to change the privacy
laws so we can help our keiki."
"As the highest federal law enforcement official in Hawai'i,
I totally agree with Peter Carlisle and HPD Chief Donahue that prevention
is the answer."
At the end of the conference, community leader MaryAnne Long suggested
Ko'olauloa borrow the "Better LATE than never" concept from Kahalu'u: L)
legislation and lobbying; A) awareness, education, prevention; T) treatment;
E) enforcement.
Purcell thanked

Rep.
Case 'talks story' in Hau'ula
Parents of special
needs children used U.S. Rep. Ed Case's visit to Hau'ula
Elementary School on Aug. 12th to register their concerns over the congressman's
amendment to the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) which,
they feel, would seriously "hurt the children."
 |
Rep.
Case |
Kahuku resident Harry Brown, expressed concern for the future of his son, Kahiau, if Case voted in favor of changes to IDEA. "If you
do that, you will hurt our people," Brown said. "You will take away the
rights my son already has. If you're going to change it, you should change
it for good."
Case's amendment proposes limiting attorney fees in the event a family
who uses a lawyer to secure educational benefits prevails in court. "The
problem is some of the fees have been what I consider excessive," he said.
"I know how seriously you take this issue," Case continued, explaining that
IDEA, which in Hawai'i is linked with the Felix Act, is a "classic unfunded
amenity" that has put a "tremendous strain on state resources. Up until two
or three years ago, the federal government picked up about 8%" of the costs,
but originally promised to cover up to 40%.
"It's a great idea, but the problem is we didn't get the money," Case said. "The
appropriation is short by about $6 billion. Why? Because we gave tax cuts."
"I don't believe we should change the intent of the law, but we should change
the funding of the law," he said.
"There are not that many attorneys who handle special education law, and
most of them are on O'ahu," Brown responded. "If it's just for a few of them
who are charging an exorbitant amount, don't go changing it [IDEA]."
"For us at the bottom, who see what's going on, it hurts," said Zeni
Iese, a Hawaiian Immersion teach-er
at Hau'ula Elementary. She encouraged more funding for classrooms.
Sherry Martinez,
who has three foster children, stressed that "the current form of IDEA is not working" and Case's
amendment would actually remove or change benchmarks such as the Individual
Educational Plan (IEP). Under the Case amendment, that meeting would go
from once a year to once every three years.
"I have a heart for these children," Martinez said. "They
deserve an education, and I will fight for it to the end of my days."
Case replied
he believes too many resources are directed to administration, and not
the child. "The
proposal says if both sides agree, you don't have to go back for a [IEP]
re-evaluation every year."
Lonia Burroughs told
Case she's
looking for "a broad vision of what it is that we need to do. The federal
government has to have more vision than the state." She added she wants
to "bring our IDEA children into a full society. The cost-effective way
of doing that is earlier. There's plenty of research to show that. The
later we wait, the more expensive it's going to be."
"It's my experience that if the money were spent right up front on the services,
the overall expenses would be less. Please, broaden your vision," Burroughs
said.
Leialoha Jenkins,
co-chair for the Ko'olauloa Interagency Community Council, was even more direct in asking
Case to fully fund IDEA: "Fund it and make it work." She also pointed out
that more foster children are being dumped into the foster care system
because of President Clinton's welfare reform.
"We've yelled and screamed, and we got from 8 to 18%, but clearly it isn't
enough," Case responded.
A Hau'ula teacher then said she felt there was a problem with the entire
school system. "It's not helpful, it's adversarial. It's not functional,
it's dysfunctional."
Case replied
that he has believed for many years "that a statewide school
system doesn't work," but as a U.S. Representative he didn't have any "power
to make it go that way."
After several
unrelated issues were raised, Case thanked everyone for attending. "I've
heard your concerns," he said.

Lack
of volunteers hurts Ko'olauloa youth sports programs
Several youth
athletic leagues, which historically have fielded hundreds of keiki each
in normally
sports-crazy Ko'olauloa, are dying this upcoming
season due to parents failing to sign their kids up in time and/or a lack
of volunteer help.
Diane Stant-Tafua of
Lä'ie, president
of North Shore Youth Activities which oversees
Police Athletic League programs in this moku, explained that PAL
flag football and Ko'olauloa Little League
programs will probably not take the field this upcoming season.
PAL flag football
"We only had about 40 kids sign up by the registration deadline. That's
not enough to run a league," Stant-Tafua said of flag football, which drew
about 200 kids in its inaugural season last year.
"Last-minute sign-up is a problem," she continued. "In
the past there have been dozens of kids trying to sign up just before the
league starts. Parents
need to be more on top of getting their kids signed up during the registration
period."
She added that
there also weren't enough volunteers for this year. Last
year's key volunteer coordinators, Doc Taula and Kalani Soren, are pursuing educational objectives this season.
Stant-Tafua
explained that getting volunteers seems to be a problem for most of the
youth athletic
programs in the district. "We have to beg people
to become coaches, which is our main need," she said. "Also, some parents
think of these activities as a babysitting service. They drop their kids
off and come back an hour or so later."
Still, Stant-Tafua
said she'll continue to work with the PAL-oriented programs: "We're
having PAL volleyball again, which had about 160 kids last year, beginning
in March. Registration begins in January, so please make sure to sign your
kids up in time."
Ko'olauloa
Little League
Stant-Tafua
also said PAL would be willing to help the Ko'olauloa Little
League program, which is currently languishing for a lack of volunteers.
"If we can get somebody to coordinate Little League, we'll take over the
baseball part," she said. "Otherwise, Little League may be finished in this
area for now."
Last year about
150 kids from throughout Ko'olauloa participated, but the
number has been as high as 300 in the past.
Signe Nae'ole of
Ka'a'awa, league
president for the past three years, said she was stepping down after last
season "because I'm tired of it, and I think there should be new blood.
It's a lot of work when you don't have the help."
Nae'ole
said she had thought of quitting the year before, "but then I
felt bad for the kids, so I put my family on hold another year." She
added her other board members — Kim Nae'ole, Lani Gibby and Valu
Alapa — were also not planning to
continue.
Asked what it
would take to keep Little League alive, Nae'ole responded, "dedicated
volunteers. There are parents who want their kids to continue in baseball,
but they just don't want to help.
"The kids really enjoy baseball, and we have a lot of potential. We just
need to get volunteers and more support from their families," she said, pointing
out that several teams want to continue, especially those interested in competing
against outside teams.
Kim Nae'ole, who has been league treasurer the past two seasons and a volunteer
for two more, agreed with her sister-in-law. "We're basically burned out.
We just couldn't get the help from the people.
"Too busy was the basic response. We tried to tell parents if there were
a full board, there wouldn't be as much work per person. This past year we
raised the price to $70 [from $35 the previous season], which almost covered
all the costs," she continued, adding they did fundraising to make up the
difference. "But we found it was just the board doing the the work. It roughly
costs about $90 per child to play."
Kim Nae'ole also thinks tradition is a factor in what's happening to Little
League here. "We're not a baseball town, we're a football town," she said. "We
find that if you grew up playing baseball, those are the parents who are
really involved. Otherwise, it was just something for the kids to do."
Elaine McArthur of
Lä'ie, who has
supported the program in the past as both a volunteer coach and parent,
said she hates to see the program die. "Sometimes it's necessary for some
of the people who've been very involved to step away before others will
step forward. It's a lot of work, and it's time for new people to help," she
added.
Several other
people who have volunteered with various Ko'olauloa youth
leagues agree. "It was a lot of stress," said a woman who served with her
husband for eight years. She added they phased out after their children grew
older and moved on.
PAL basketball
Peter Ta'ilele of
Lä'ie has been
volunteering for years with the PAL basketball league, which involved about
450 kids this past season (sign up starts in October, play starts the first
week of January).
"It's not easy. Every year I've got to look for coaches and other help," he
said. "Fortunately, we've had some parents who wanted to help. I think that's
why some of our programs are not successful, because we don't have enough
support from the parents and community."
Ta'ilele added he was surprised to hear that the flag football league was
going to fold, and agreed that some parents didn't pay enough attention to
deadlines. "When they missed the deadlines, the league closed down. You can't
just bring the kids at the last minute. That makes it hard for people to
organize.
"All I know is that if parents want to keep their kids busy and out of trouble,
they've got to help," Ta'ilele said. "Parents need to get involved to make
a strong community."
He added that
some of the parents also get "too serious on the sidelines:
Some of them feel it's a championship game, every game. They need to realize
the kids are just having fun."
Pop Warner football
The local Pop Warner football program is solid, probably due to the annual
football fever that infects the entire moku as well as the dedication of
head coach David Te'o and his brother,
Brian, and their families who have been volunteering for the past seven years.
"Our numbers are actually growing," said
Brian, pointing out they have about 145 boys and girls signed up this season.
Each of the kids has to pay a $200
fee.
"A lot of it has to do with past successes as well as the variety of competition
provided by the Pop Warner program. We play outside of our community," he
said, adding he believes the "kids feel it's also something that resembles
Kahuku football more than any other sport."
Te'o feels that outside competition also helps the league stay viable. "Playing
the same teams over and over again makes it difficult, and eventually you
can't find anyone to run such a program."
So, does Pop
Warner need volunteers? "Our entire organization is staffed
with volunteers, from the board to our team moms and coaches," Te'o responded. "We
struggled somewhat this year, but we've managed to find parents, and trained
them. Parents always want to help."
AYSO (soccer)
The strongest
youth sports program in Ko'olauloa, however, is the American
Youth Soccer Organization league, which has grown from about 200 kids five
years ago to almost 500 who started play last week. Each child in this region
pays a $50 registration fee, although other regions charge more.
Richard Oei of
Lä'ie, a former college
and semi-pro player who's now AYSO regional
commissioner from Kahalu'u to Sunset Beach, said the program is "very strong. Eventually, the parents
get involved when there's a shortage. BYU-Hawai'i has also been a very
good resource for us. A lot of freshmen recently got out of AYSO 'under-19' play,
and we've had good response from them. They know the sport."
Oei, who also
coaches boys varsity soccer at Kahuku High, added the natural progression
for some
of the kids into interscholastic competition helps,
too. "I'm trying to strengthen those links," he said.
HCA
hears status report on Hau'ula Elementary School
In his status
report on Hau'ula Elementary at the Hau'ula Community Association
meeting on Sept. 3rd, Principal Brad Odagiri reported official enrollment has dropped and
they may lose several teachers, but that the school is making progress
with a new comprehensive reading program.
"There was a big drop in our enrollment," said Odagiri of the decline of
approximately 10% to about 300 students. He explained that according to Department
of Education (DOE) classroom size standards, "right now it looks like we
may be losing two teachers." He wondered if the year-round schedule was a
factor, but teacher Zeni Iese said she liked it. She also wondered if Odagiri was pushing for DOE "small
school" status, which would mean "one teacher for one classroom."
"We need to keep our kids at Hau'ula," Odagiri continued. "I know some of
them are at neighboring schools. Hopefully, we won't lose any more."
Odagiri then
reported that Hau'ula Elementary has invested grant money and
effort into a schoolwide "Direct Instruction" reading improvement program
with positive results. "After one year, we had no children in stanines 1-3," he
said.
Odagiri explained "to make sure our kids get quality instruction on reading," there's
a proposal to hold all field trips at one time. "Those are the kinds of things
we're looking at.
"There are a lot of good components we never had before," he added. "My
mission is to show that Hau'ula can do it."
BYU-Hawai'i
honors teacher, staff
The BYU-Hawai'i
President's Council recently named Lä'ie resident Norm
Evans as its Teacher of the Year.
The honor included a $1,000 award from the Polynesian Cultural Center.
Evans, who started
at the University in 1981, has been involved in teaching English for international
students, and most recently chaired a study of
the returnability of those students to their homelands. He is also president
of the LDS BYU-Hawai'i 2nd Stake.
BYU-Hawai'i
also presented annual "excellence in service" awards to the
following staff members who live in Ko'olauloa: Norma Te'o, financial aid; Paul Freebairn, testing center; Jason Green, technology services; Phyllis Peters, alumni; Keleise Taulogo, English; Kanani Ka'awa, purchasing; Seini Malupo, food services; John Olszowka, scheduling; Sam Malupo, grounds; Yvonne Marasco-Mapu, health center; and Didi Santeco, purchasing.
Each of the service honors included a $500 award.

replied Jim Felcher, a public relations executive with the Turtle Bay
Championship. "This year we're giving away $80,000. Last year it was
$40,000.
"Without
volunteers like you, we couldn't do this," added Tony Guerrero Jr.,
president of Friends of Hawai'i Charities, Inc., which helps coordinate
the volunteer efforts.

Kahuku High haps: a promising year
By Natalie
Kamau'oha
~ Kahuku High correspondent
The Kahuku High
campus has sprung to life with the coming of the 2003-04 school year, which
promises
academic excellence, athletic triumph, and extracurricular
successes by many of Kahuku's talented students. The start of a new year
at Kahuku also brings new goals, people, and even new campus renovations.
Kahuku High
students have greeted the upcoming year with enthusiastic aspirations and
prospective
goals. To "make a lasting contribution" during her senior
year, Bethany Smith decided to "make a change" by volunteering to become
this year's homecoming chair.
Like Smith, many other Kahuku seniors hope to leave their own legacy: Student
Body Government Vice President Adriana Alghussein, for example, wants to "achieve a 4.5 GPA and win
first place at the state debate tournament."
While seniors
are finishing their last year at Kahuku, many students have recently joined
the Kahuku 'ohana and are beginning to get a taste of the "Kahuku
way": Celesta Hubner, a senior from
Rochester, New York, commented, "Being around diverse ethnicities is a new
and exciting experience because I am not used to being a minority." Kai
Henderson, a transfer student from Waialua,
chose to attend Kahuku because the "trimester system is more flexible and
allows students to take more classes."
To welcome all of them, Kahuku hosted its annual new student and seventh
grade orientations on Aug. 25th. Leilani Relator, Student body treasurer, said, "The purpose of these
orientations is to help the new students get acquainted with their peers,
the campus, and the activities Kahuku has to offer."
Josh Yeager,
who transferred from Ko'olau Baptist Academy, commented that the orientation helped him to "meet
people and know my way around the campus." Andrina Ramos, a seventh grader, said that the orientation was
an opportunity for her to "learn the rules and meet teachers."
New faculty and staff are also learning about Kahuku: Mr. Matthew Mumma,
the new senior class counselor, moved here from Burlington, Virginia, because
he "was tired of the East Coast and was ready for a change." While working
at Kahuku he has been impressed by "the students and the orderliness of
the campus."
An old, yet new face to the Kahuku family is Ms. Cory Shlachter,
a '95 alumna. After completing her undergraduate degree at Stanford and
a master's at the University of Hawai'i, Shlachter decided to return to
her "alma mater because [she] knows the people and knows the programs work." She
is currently teaching U.S. History and Democracy classes. What Shlachter
enjoys most about teaching is "seeing the students get it and how it [the
knowledge] applies to real life."
With numerous new faces on campus, one cannot overlook that even certain
buildings and classrooms have gotten face-lifts, thanks to the renovation
project that began in May and will run through November.
Shelly Hata,
Administrative Services Assistant for Kahuku High, explains, "In this
project the classrooms will be renovated through the replacement of lights,
floors, wall paint, tack
boards, whiteboards, window, and doors.
"This project
is costing approximately $2.7 million."
The renovations have not gone unnoticed and are appreciated by students
and faculty alike. Junior Christina Connell applauds the changes because they help the campus "look
nicer." She elaborates, "When people come and visit our campus, they will
be impressed and we will have a better reputation."
Rose Spencer,
also a junior, predicts the renovations will "help students become more
eager to learn because they have adequate surroundings."
Kahuku science teacher Mrs. Amy Swiderski added, "I think in the long run the project will
work. It will give the school a better image and we'll no longer be, as
the students say, a ghetto."
Although various classrooms are still under renovation, the completed classrooms
have started off the school year on an optimistic note. Hopefully this positive
momentum will lead Kahuku into an exciting and productive school year.
With new students, teachers, and classrooms, the 2003-2004 school year has
much to look forward to.
