HERE ARE SOME UPDATES AND REMINDERS: 1) We are wrapping up the first quarter of school! There are only two weeks left until we head out to fall break: Oct.11th through 15th. You will soon receive sign-ups for our virtual Family-Student-Teacher conferences to be held Nov.2-5 12:30 - 2:50pm, SCHOOL ENDS 12 NOON. Students will be released at 12 noon for those 4 days. Please plan accordingly. 2) MASKS: Our students have been troopers with mask wearing, hand washing and distancing. The distancing has been a little more of a struggle but we keep working with them and reminding them. For the mask wearing, a majority of our students are doing a great job, we just ask that you send them with properly fitted masks and extra's in their bag. Our promise to all staff and ʻohana is that we would continue with mask wearing and we would like to keep that promise to everyone by wearing them properly over mouth and nose. 3) TIMELINESS: We'd like to remind everyone the first bell rings at 7:45 signaling the end of breakfast and 5 minutes till school starts. The teachers gather the students between 7:45 and 7:50 from the cafeteria. It is important for your keiki to have a great start to their day by having breakfast and starting with their classmates on time. 4) Pūʻōhalaween! If you are interested in helping organize a Halloween event for our keiki to be held Friday, Oct. 29th, please email VP Ostermiller at [email protected]. Mahalo!

Representatives Scot Matayoshi and Lisa Kitagawa are sponsoring a Windward Community Drive-Thru Flu Shot Clinic on Saturday, September 18th from 9 am – 12 noon at Windward Community College. Times Pharmacy will be administering the flu shots to anyone 3 and older, and all major insurance carriers will be accepted. Please bring your insurance card for everyone getting a shot and a photo ID. We will also have the high dose flu shots available for seniors 65 and older at this clinic. Please remember to wear your mask. Like last year, the Stop the Flu at School program will be limited this year and most schools are not participating in the program. We encourage you to attend the drive-thru flu shot clinic if you’d like to get a flu vaccine for yourself and your children. The flu shot is also available at your doctor’s office or at participating pharmacies, however, if you do not feel comfortable going into those locations, this drive-thru flu shot clinic provides you with a safe and easy alternative. Please see the flyer for more information. We have also attached a flu vaccination consent and pre-screening form. You can fill out and print this form at home to make your visit quicker. However, if you do not have access to a printer, we will have forms available for you on the day of the clinic. Prevent Flu This Fall and Winter It's likely that the flu virus and COVID-19 will both spread this fall and winter. Healthcare systems are currently overwhelmed treating patients with COVID-19. Getting a flu vaccine this year is more important than ever. By preventing hospitalizations from the flu, we can help to ease the burden on our medical system. While getting a flu vaccine will not protect against COVID-19, there are many important benefits, such as: 1) flu vaccines have been shown to reduce the risk of flu illness, hospitalization, and death, and 2) getting a flu vaccine can also save healthcare resources for the care of patients with COVID-19. Additional Insurance Information Times Pharmacy contracts with all major insurance providers (HMA, HMAA, HMSA, Kaiser, UHA, TRICARE, PSWA, Hawaii Laborers Union, Medicare and Quest). Most insurance providers cover the cost of the flu vaccine completely with $0 copay. There are some cases where the vaccine wouldn't be covered 100%. Union insurances have a small copay of the total cost of the flu vaccine. Times will invoice the clinic participant if they do have a copay. If the clinic participant's insurance does not cover the flu vaccine, the cash price for the regular vaccine is $55 and $75 for the high dose vaccine. Times will be providing both the regular flu vaccine and a high dose vaccine for people 65 years or age and older at this clinic. Aloha Pūʻōhala Ohana,
We are close to wrapping up a full month of school! The keiki are thriving in academics and enjoying each others company. It's so nice to see them smiling and laughing. At this time, here are some updates and reminders to share: 1) Lunch Menu : Change to the menu on Tuesday, Aug.31. Turkey ham sandwich. Please visit our website at puohala.com to see updates and cafe menus under Meal Services. 2) Properly Fitting Masks: Parents/Guardians, please send properly fitted masks with your keiki. Many of them have masks that fall constantly througout the day, needing reminders from adults to fix their masks. We also ask that you send them with additional masks in their bags. Please put them in a ziploc with student name. 3) Safe driving into/out of school: We had a concern from a neighbor on Kulauli Street that cars have been going fast in the mornings and after school times. Please be mindful of the speedlimit and our neighborhood, especially as some keiki walk and ride their bike around the neighborhood. Thank you!!! Mahalo for supporting Pūʻōhala School and our teachers and staff as we continue during this unprecedented time of a pandemic. Pūʻōhala Administration |
