On Tuesday November 26th, 2024, three teachers from Kalani High School in Hawaii, including the principal, visited Bihoku High School. Kalani High School and Bihoku High School arranged a study abroad/homestay exchange program and, in February 2025, Bihoku students will study at Kalani High School for 9 days. In October of the same year, students from Kalani High School will come to our school.
The three teachers observed our classes which included Mathematics, Health Education, and English. They had a question and answer session with our students in the international course and discussed the homestay student exchange program in detail. The conversation was lively from beginning to end, and everyone is very excited about the new exchange between our schools.
