Artist Spotlight: Halloween Horror ?

Kalani students express their personalities through their skating style, decorations, and even the scuff marks on their boards. These are some of the skateboards that belong to the students that go here. They are all in a secure stand where they are kept throughout the school day. This skateboard stand is located in front of the office right next to the library entrance. This represents skate culture here at Kalani. Students have various ways of getting places according to their preferences and age. Kalani students are diverse and their personalities are unique in every way. That’s part of what makes Kalani, Kalani.

Skateboard culture at Kalani showcases diversity

Kalani’s D building mural was painted for the Class of 2018. Handprints of some students from that class are placed on and around it with a beach's golden sand and blue ocean wave. This mural is a representation of Kalani’s strong sense of community and artistic talent. The detail and shading shows the effort and care of the students. And the handprints left behind display their sense of belonging to this school.

Handprints leave a legacy of community

This mural can be found in the upstairs hallway that connects C and D buildings. This is a great visual representation of Kalani because it shows how in the end, it is going to be great. The sun represents great endings and what is to come. The strong waves and sea represent the tough times in between. These tough times, though, will prepare you for life and help you achieve whatever you put your mind to.

Mural reminds us that challenges make us stronger
