Read Aloud America will do a read aloud session immediately following the Family Sundays event in the vacant unit next to Genki Sushi.

Maui Mall will also recognize select students at center stage for their achievements in academics and character. These students have been nominated by Maui teachers, then selected by Maui Mall and entered into a student drawing where one lucky student will go home with an iPad Mini.

Last month, Maui Mall awarded Lihikai Elementary School third-grader Kyra Ong an iPad Mini. She was nominated by her teacher Tracie O’Keefe, who said, “Kyra’s work ethic is awesome and her love for learning will get her far in life…Her positive attitude toward learning has helped her to reach and go beyond the goals that she has set for herself.” Ong was named student of the week as well as Lihikai Surfer of the Month every year since kindergarten. She is involved in the Maui Swim Team, Maui County basketball, Lihikai School’s math team and dances hula with Halau Hula Kauluokala,. Ong also takes ukulele lessons.

Maui Mall is encouraging all Maui teachers to nominate their students via online form or letter.

Additionally, students who are chosen by Maui Mall from March through November will be reentered in a cumulative drawing for a chance to win a MacBook Air notebook at the Maui Mall Family Sundays finale event on January 26, 2014.
