Aliyah and Kea made a game for their final project in Computer Science. Kea drew each of the characters, pixel-by-pixel, and Aliyah coded the game using Flowlab. The object is to move the spiders up onto the blocks. It's hard, and it's not perfect yet, but it's fun.

Aloha Moanalua Middle School Families,
I just wanted to give you a quick traffic update and appreciations.  Driving with Aloha is key to our traffic success.  When Mr. Iwamura and I are out there observing traffic and welcoming our students to school, we can see the dynamics of our morning and afternoon traffic.  Just on Mahiole St. alone there are multiple traffic directions that cars and pedestrians travel each day.  And we are doing a great job in my eyes with the cards that we are dealt.  Hats off to our elementary neighbors that are also in our traffic.  With our Elementary School starting at 8am daily it does assist with our 830am start.  Continue to do your best.  Just a quick note: our heaviest time in the morning is from 7:40amish to 8:05amish.  In the afternoon, once our busses come and go our traffic flow is much smoother.  Heavy times in the afternoon is right when our bell rings to about 3:00pmish.  I know we are all doing our part to help out with traffic and I thank you for that.  I really appreciate all of you.  Have a great day.
Congratulations Mrs. Bersola on your retirement and your 30 years of service to our kids and our schools. Mahalo Plenty. #mmsherd #808educate @HIDOE808
"Come Fly with Me, Lets Fly Away," Friday session in the cafeteria with Mr. Kreidler's class. #mmsherd #808educate Hawai'i Public Schools
Congratulations to our staff members for their service and dedication to our Keiki.  Congratulations to Mrs. Higashi for 30 years of service and Congratulations to Mrs. Miyasato, Mrs. Montoya, Ms. Provencio and Mr. Iwamura for 20 years of service.  We appreciate you all.
