Students choose two projects to design and create displaying the knowledge they gained about the periodic table and other components of chemistry. They had nine options to choose from! Great work students!
Message From The Principal
Dear LJA Parents,
In addition to checking your child's MS Progress Report on Monday please be on the look out next week for an email detailing the end-of-the-year events and activities. We have had to make several date changes and revisions to our normal procedures in order to allow for Covid19 response guidelines. We are hopeful, however, to continue with many of the year end traditions with slight modifications. If you have any questions after receiving the email please don't hesitate to call or email the MS Office.
Enjoy the long weekend,
Julie Do MS Principal

LJA Wellness Message By Sean Landau and Jessica Osborne
Although these useful exercises were created for teachers, we can all improve daily. Whether you are new or experienced, teaching can be a uniquely rewarding and demanding experience. Deliberately carving out time in each day where you can take a moment to care for yourself can be essential to your well being. You may be feeling stressed out by a looming deadline, overwhelmed by your to-do list, or overly self-critical. We hope this little book of mindfulness tips can help remind you to take a breath, be kind to yourself and just do the best you can with this moment.
Please find the link: Here.

Take care and be well,
Jessica Osborne and Sean Landau
Travel Policy
Student travel procedure--approved by the Medical Hui--is in effect as long as the State allows a pre-travel COVID test for Mainland or International* travelers:
Student registers planned travel through designated division representative Student takes approved, pre-travel PCR test and registers through the State app With a negative, pre-travel PCR test and a second, negative, on-island PCR or antigen test 5-7 days following return to O'ahu, the student will be permitted to return to campus without condition. Until these results are known, the student will not be permitted on campus and should remain at home. If a student has a positive antigen test, then he/she would follow-up with a PCR test to verify the result, and, if positive, would follow COVID procedure. This procedure is intended to shorten the amount of time that students must learn remotely following travel relative to the 14-day quarantine alternative. If you have any questions, please email school.nurse@lejardinacademy.org.
*Neighbor island travelers will be expected to comply with current County and State regulations for travel and testing, and procedures may vary by island. Visit https://hidot.hawaii.gov/coronavirus/ for details.
Important Reminder
Whenever a parent/guardian picks up a student for an off-campus appointment, the parent and student are required to check out at the MS office so that he/she can be accounted for at all times. If a student comes late to school, or comes back after leaving for an appointment, the student MUST check back in at the MS office.
Mahalo to the PFA
Thanks again to the PFA and all the parents for all the wonderful healthy snacks, treats, and K-cup pods that have been "just what I needed" for the faculty and staff these past few months! Faculty and staff also came back from Spring Break to a thoughtful surprise - a face mask and a bottle of hand sanitizing spray.
