This school year, Honolulu Civil Beat is following along behind the scenes as teachers and parents launch a brand new charter school in Hawaii.
It’s going to be a story about education, but we suspect it will also end up being a story about community. About the challenges facing parents and kids and teachers in Hawaii today, and what happens when a group of people come together to try and overcome those challenges in a new and different way.
In coming episodes you’ll sit in on teacher training, find out what goes into getting a charter approved, hear from sleep-deprived board members, and be there when the campus opens its doors.
What happens the rest of the year — well, we’re going to have to find that out together.
