COS COB, Conn. – Teachers today feel unappreciated, underpaid, and stressed over shrinking budgets, tough children, and mandatory testing, among other things. Turnover rates are climbing. Chicken Soup for the Soul and the best teachers in America have come to the rescue with 101 inspirational stories that will make teachers laugh out loud, shed a few tears, and above all, realize that they really do make a difference and they are very much appreciated. As Anthony Mullen, the 2009 National Teacher of the Year, says in his foreword, “We need this book!”
In an unprecedented move, all 55 of the 2009 State Teachers of the Year have come together in this project, joined by several dozen other teachers and appreciative students, to write the stories in Chicken Soup for the Soul: Teacher Tales (Chicken Soup for the Soul Publishing, LLC, February 2010, 978-1-935096-47-4, $14.95).
“This book is about the heart and soul of teaching and why we have committed our lives to helping children,” writes Mullen, “This book reminds us why we are teachers and why we love our work.”

Happy New Year and welcome back! The start of a new calendar year brings new beginnings, resolutions and the hope for new traditions.
To get us off on the right foot, I'm excited to unveil a brand new “G” logo for our website! It's bold, smooth, refreshing and represents the Governor Ohana in a modern style that extends a warm Aloha for our youthful generations as well as distinguished alumni. It's sprinkled around the site for now, with full integration to be completed as time permits.

Message from our hosting service:Yesterday, October 1, 2009, we experienced an outage at one of our datacenters. Customers that were housed in that datacenter experienced total connectivity loss for a significant portion of the day.
The outage was caused by a failure of one of our core routers, which caused an overload in our network connections. Due to this overload, we experienced a series of secondary issues that caused connections to our servers to drop.
At this time, we have brought the network traffic back to a nominal state and expect to have 99 percent of our customers up and running with all services running normally. However, we do expect to have a small degradation of services while we continue to make adjustments to our Network. These services may include, CGI, FTP, Mail, or MySQL.
In addition, we are in the process of making improvements to our Network Topology to ensure that we don't experience this type of failure in the future. This will require us to schedule a Maintenance window of down time, so that we can implement the changes. We will schedule this downtime at some point next week, and we will schedule it at a point in time with the least amount of network traffic, to minimize the effects to you.
We thank you for your patience and understanding during this time.
FHS Webmaster: Looks like the maintenance downtime will come during our Fall Break, which works well for us. While we are back online now, the site may be running slower than normal due to the “degradation of services” mentioned above. Intermittent outages may also occur, all the way through the maintenance period. We will be monitoring the situation closely. Should any more issues arise, FHS Administration will be notified immediately. Mahalo!

Somewhere on the laundry list of funding needs for Hawai'i's public school athletic departments is… laundry.
Any parent with kids involved in sports knows how this household duty pops up more often in-season, and a school with hundreds of athletes on up to 25 or more teams over a nine-month calendar needs high-volume, efficient washing and drying machines and crates of detergent to keep uniforms and practice jerseys clean.
Farrington received a $17,000 donation from its alumni association earlier this year to rebuild its washroom, including a brand new commercial washing machine.
In the past, Farrington athletic director Harold Tanaka said department staff would sometimes spend entire nights just doing load after load of laundry.
"At our school, we don't let anything (uniforms) go home," Tanaka said. "We wash everything here."
