Important Schedule Change for October Release Time
Please take careful note of an important change to our early release schedule for the week of October 20th. We have swapped the early release times for Wednesday, October 22nd and Friday, October 24th.
This adjustment was discussed and officially approved by the Waikiki School Community Council (SCC) to allow for the necessary setup and staging of our annual Haunted House Event on the 24th.
The NEW Early Release Schedule is as follows:
Date Day Event/Reason New Release Time October 22 Wednesday Standard Release Time 2:15 PM October 24 Friday Haunted House Event Prep 1:30 PM
Please update your calendars and make all necessary after-school care and transportation arrangements for these changes, especially the much earlier 1:30 PM dismissal on Friday, October 24th.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we work to make the Haunted House event a fun and successful experience for our students!
