“Just jump right in… you need to have that love and that passion for music.” 🎤✨

Students at Waimānalo Intermediate had the opportunity to hear from local musician , from Waimānalo, as he shared his journey and what it really takes to pursue a career in music. He was grateful for the opportunity to give back and connect with students from his community.

Beyond performing, he also highlighted the many careers that support the industry, from sound technicians to marketing teams, showing students that there are so many ways to be part of the music world.

Moments like this are what career-connected learning is all about. Giving students direct access to industry professionals, especially those connected to their community, helps them see what’s possible and start imagining their own future paths.

Mahalo to Waimānalo Elementary & Intermediate School and our community partners for helping make these experiences possible for our keiki 💚

Happy Earth Day 🌎💚

We had the opportunity to learn from Farmer Dave Burlew of Local Hawaiian Produce, who shared what it really means to grow food right here in Hawaiʻi 🌱

Students explored the difference between locally grown and imported foods, from how far products travel to reach our islands to why fresh, local produce matters for our community and environment. Through his stories and real-life experiences, Farmer Dave helped students see how supporting local farmers helps reduce waste, protect our ʻāina, and strengthen Hawaiʻi’s future.

Mahalo to ʻAikahi Elementary’s 2nd grade teachers, Ms. Liane Ono and Ms. Kathleen Range, for allowing Hawaii Workforce Pipeline to partner with you on such an amazing career-connected learning experience. The curiosity and excitement from the students made it even more meaningful 💛
