Aloha Kūhiō Elementary Families,

Welcome to the start of an exciting new school year! I am deeply honored and humbled to serve as your principal and to welcome your children back to Prince Jonah Kūhiō Elementary School.

Our exceptional faculty and staff bring aloha into the classroom every day—empowering, challenging, and nurturing our students, both academically and socially, to reach their full potential. Through our tight-knit school community, we have the unique privilege of truly knowing each child, celebrating their strengths, and igniting their passion for learning.

This year, our collective efforts are guided by a powerful theme:

Neʻepapa — To move as a whole, work together in unison, and unite toward a common goal.

As students, teachers, staff, and families, we form one cohesive team. Together, we will uplift one another, overcome obstacles, and soar to new heights of student success.

Thank you for partnering with us and trusting us with your children’s education. Let’s make this an unforgettable year!

With aloha,

Ted Mura 

Principal, Prince Jonah Kūhiō Elementary School 

“Rooted in aloha, driven by purpose”
