Student Fellowship

Student Fellowship is a major component in the HSASC program. The hawaiian word "Ohana" or family is expressed through the open exchange of ideas, emotions, and opinons between students, faculty, and staff. These exchanges are facilitated through field trips, overnight excursions, Teacher a Student Receptions, and many community service projects available through Ku Pono i Hookahi Hawaii*.

*Ku pono i Hookahi Hawaii is an registered student club of the Hawaiian Students Department at KCC.
