Honowai Elementary School
Lorraine Yuen: AWESOME in using today's technology in the classrooms to conduct lessons. Children are engaged and excited, not bored and anxious. There is also an reward incentive for math and reading done I think on a monthly basis. The children are so excited when the staff giving out the reading and math achievement "bracelets" walk into the classroom to announce their reading and math "achievers."
