Due to environmental risks from recent wildfires, Lahainaluna Principal Richard Carosso intends to temporarily transfer pupils to Kulanihako’i High School in Kihei on September 14. Carosso acknowledged the difficulties of the situation and underlined the importance of delivering in-person instruction and bringing pupils back on track in his remarks to parents, instructors, and students. Aiming to reopen West Maui schools after fall break while investigating other educational choices, resolving communication issues with parents, and considering potential temporary locations, DOE officials addressed concerns during community gatherings.
