David Miyashiro, the CEO and founder of HawaiiKidsCAN, spoke to us about our eucation system of the future in Hawaii, one where
students—regardless of zip code or income level—have access to high-quality educational experiences and graduate with the adaptability,
creativity and curiosity to be our local and global leaders. We envision a system that promotes and celebrates multilingualism, diversity and our Hawaiian host culture. We envision an education system where school leaders and teachers are celebrated as professionals and individuals, that fosters engaged citizens in politics and community issues and in which our students’ identities are affirmed as residents of Hawaii.
