Mahalo for your feedback! Pulse Survey data played an important role in developing our models and plans.

Three main areas of focus:

1. Workload for both students and teachers.

2. Connection to School.

3. Common Use of Technology.

DENSITYREDUCTIONDensity reduction is not a perfect solution but given our unique constraints, we have proposed a model that will allow maximum flexiblity, should we need to move to full distance learning, while not losing instructional quality or time.

Given our variety of academic offerings, and our desire to maintain student choice to the largest degree possible, a full cohort model is not possible at Kula Kiʻekiʻe.

The Hybrid model allows the following active measures to reduce density at Kula Kiʻekiʻe : • Alternating 600-700 students on campus

every day (Alphabet split by day)• ID scans for all classrooms and free spaces to

allow for tracking (staff and students)• Max of 18-20 students in classrooms • Predictable use of buildings • Free periods & lunch will be supervised and

monitored

LEARNINGMODELS

1. Face to Face2. Hybrid3. Distance

Learning

For the 2020-2021 School Year:

• The risk level determines the model.

• We anticipate being in a hybrid model-Cases increasing on the continent-Tourism pushed back in Hawai’i nei

• ‘Ohana choice of academic model will be made by semester, and may only be changed by semester

• Second Semester conversations will begin in October.

LEARNINGMODELS

KSDistance Learning

Distance Learning: (About 424)

• Operates independently from our hybrid model.

• Similar bell schedule with shorter periods. • All students will be engaging with Canvas.• 100% of classes online.• Synchronous and Asynchronous • Students will need to be in uniform

during synchronous classes.• Oʻahu distance learners will be able to

participate in Athletics. • Online classes will end by 2:00 PM to allow

for travel to campus if needed. • Audit Period – students will be able to drop

to 5 classes if needed.

For a small group of students:

Requests for changes to enrollment continue to roll-in.

As of July 9th, any family that requested a change to Distance Learning will be enrolled in ASU Digital Prep.

There is a limited number of courses and it may not be a fit for all students.

We will also use our partnership with HPU to support classes with small enrollment that do not align to our current staffing capabilities.

LEARNINGMODELS

Hybrid Learning

Hybrid Learning: (About 1200)

• Blended Learning • Students on campus 1-2 days a week. • Online learning the remainder of the

week including Friday.

• Students will also use Canvas Landing Page.

• Classes begin at 9:30 to accommodate for a second reduced-density bus run.

• Consistent Weekly Communication

• Use of COVID website for all-campus communication

ATHLETICS& ACTIVITIES

We will revisit many of these decisions in September/early October with regards to planning for the second semester.

Activities: • Due to the CDC guidelines limiting gatherings

inside of more than 50 and outside of more that 100, we are planning to suspend most large group activities in the fall semester.

• For special events like Founders Day, Christmas Concert and Convocation, we will work to re-imagine these events given safety and health protocols.

• For the First Semester: • Hold on Travel for the First Semester. • Hold on Field Trips for First Semester. Virtual

Field Trips only. • Fundraising opportunities will be limited. (No

Food)

ATHLETICS& ACTIVITIES

Athletics: • If KSK is in full distance learning (all students

online/school is shut down), we will not have Athletic Programs.

• If KSK is in a hybrid model, the Athletics Department will operate with a density reduction of our student athletes.

• If further reduction is needed, athletics may need to declare only one team at each level of sport (e.g. one junior varsity team instead of junior varsity white and blue). • This would also include placing teams on sabbatical

(e.g. D-IAA Basketball, D-2 Water Polo)

• Physical distancing can be accomplished in our athletics facilities with reduction in density put in place. • This includes gyms, fields, pools, make-shift shooting

ranges, and our strength and conditioning venues.

Campus Buildings: We have moved away from a Grade Level based campus.

-Unit Offices for 9 & 11: Pākī-Unit Offices for 10 & 12: Smith

Transportation: Currently, we will not be offering bus service from the terminal. Students will need to be dropped off on campus in designated areas. More information to come.

We will have limited capacity bus shuttles during the day.

CAMPUSINFO

For the health and safety of the community, students are asked to depart campus as soon as possible at the end of classes each day. Students will not be allowed to be unsupervised on campus before or after-school.

On days when a student does not have a class at 9:30 a.m., we hope to reduce our morning drop-off density by having that student arrive between 8:45 - 9:15 a.m.

Similarly, if a student does not have a class at 2:30 p.m., we hope to decrease traffic at pick-up time by allowing that student to leave campus early.

Students and staff with previous experience at Kamehameha Schools will notice a change in the lack of free movement around campus.

We will be eager to loosen these restrictions as the pandemic situation improves and will continue to work closely with haumāna and kumu to find creative ways to increase joy and provide social opportunities in this changed environment.
