The Office of Hawaiian Education (OHE) in partnership with Leeward Oʻahu schools and Community and the Native Hawaiian Education council invite you to join us for the first annual Nā Hopena Aʻo (HĀ) summit
|
The HĀ Summit is open to education stakeholders who are committed to strengthening BREATH. It will provide an opportunity to EXPERIENCE HĀ, build a COLLECTIVE understanding of the framework, SHARE knowledge and resources to support effective use, and CONNECT to a network of practitioners. The morning will begin with opening protocol followed by OHE setting the context for the summit and the work to date. Attendees will then participate in one of 10 huakaʻi (trips) hosted by schools and community organizations rooted in the area. The afternoon will be an opportunity to learn from our HĀ Community Day design teams from across the state, reflect on where we experienced HĀ, and discuss and plan for ways to collectively build and strengthen the HĀ movement in our local contexts.
Please take the time to review the FAQS, Huakaʻi, HĀ Community Day, and Neighbor Island Info on this website before registering. There is information there you will need to complete the registration process. FAQs include an opportunity for leeward teachers to earn PD credit. |
