Inviting Your Engagement --We Need Bloggers, Youth Mentors & Reunion Planners!

Significance In High School Alumni Relations?
While the Class of 2001 was one of the smallest classes ever at Mid-Pacific, many teachers and various classes (1998 to 2004) said that the Class of 2001 had a reputation for having individuals that were inclusive, spirited, creative and well-rounded. 

In addition, the Class of 2001 served as the “guinea pig” class for the “Mid-Pacific School of the Arts (MPSA) program. In 1998, some of you demonstrated a long-term commitment to the MPSA program in the 8th grade by dedicating much of your education toward the arts.

I share this with you because I have volunteered our class to serve as the prototype (“guinea pig” class) class to change and evolve the way in which Mid-Pacific (and other Hawai’i high schools) conduct alumni relations in the modern age. Moving forward, I will be working closely with the Mid-Pacific administration, staff and you to begin re-engaging and modernizing the alumni relations efforts. This will include reintroducing the school to you, so that you can feel more comfortable as an informed brand ambassadors and advocate for the school.

Inviting Your Engagement --We Need Bloggers, Youth Mentors & Reunion Planners!
Today, I invite you to join me as a united class to help me rebuild our class foundation, spirit and network that we took a break from nearly 15 years ago.

Moving forward, my job is to help share information and opportunities with you, so that you can remember our treasured high school moments that are being experienced by Mid-Pacific’s newest generation of owls. In the Mid-Pacific spirit of giving back, I invite you to consider joining me to reshape the way our class, school and alumni communicates and thrives.

Please review the graphic that I created that outlines three committees that are in need of volunteers. Hopefully some of you will consider reliving your high school days as journalists or visual artists to help me report upon the ways we are reshaping what modern and meaningful alumni relations looks like.

In the coming weeks, we will also begin a new movement to demonstrate how our class is reshaping alumni relations. This spring/summer, our class will be the very first class to create a class scholarship/mentorship for deserving Mid-Pacific class of 2017 seniors.

Your participation as a mentor will be valuable as seniors try to make more informed decisions about college, majors among other things. For more details, I invite you to consider joining me in the planning, implementation and execution of such a worthwhile initiative by joining a committee. Feel free to contact me for questions.
