"On Dec. 10, seniors in the W.R. Farrington High School Hawaiian Academy,
Halau Kupa Hawai‘i debated the Akaka Bill and GMO kalo. The debate was an
economics and Hawaiian language-integrated assignment designed to engage
the seniors in a culminating activity that would combine student interest with current event issues affecting Hawai’i. Members of the community, including OHA Chairperson Haunani Apoliona, judged the debate, with pro-GMO kalo edging out its opponents and the Akaka Bill debate tied. “Students gained an appreciation for teamwork, time management, attention to details, efforts from the community who have been engaged with these topics from inception, sticking to the facts and basically the exposure to the process of having their voices heard,” said Halau Kupa
Hawai‘i Director ‘Alohilani Okamura, pictured in the front row on right. “We saw the value in bringing this topic to the forefront at this critical time. It was enlightening to see the voice of our ‘o¯pio expressed. It was a wonderful experience.” The other teachers on this integrated project were Kamuela Polivka, Pi‘ilani Gamiao and Kalei Napu‘elua. - Photos: Francine Murray" (Page 10)
