Waimea HS Leadership Team was the only Hawaii based team out of 4 programs from the 8th ROTC Brigade which oversees the western region of the United States, American Samoa and Asia. Each high school enters a team in both the academic (general subjects) and leadership (JROTC specific) division. The team consists of 6 student cadets ranging from 9th grade to 11th grade but only 4 are selected to compete at the national level.

Parent and guardians.... I'm asking for your help. We are struggling with students vaping at school. The mods are small, easy to conceal, and look like flash drives... making it easy to conceal and difficult for us to catch. Also vaping doesn't have a distinctive odor like regular cigarettes. Please spend some time reading the attached slides and watching the short video that's embedded within and then have a conversation with your son or daughter. If you have any questions or concerns, please call me at school, 338-6800. Thank you.... Mahina Anguay, WHS principal.
