ISLAND PACIFIC ACADEMY is proud of alumna and board trustee Kim Uehisa '15. While home for the holidays in December 2022, she was invited on HPR's The Conversation to talk about her future plans in the medical field and how she wants to give back to the islands.

It was a great time reconnecting with fellow Navigators at our annual Home for the Holidays alumni social in Kapolei on December 19, 2022. Enjoying the evening were alumni from the Classes of 2010, 2018, 2020, 2021, and 2022, and Kim Uehisa ‘15 alumna and the newest IPA board trustee.

Two Island Pacific Academy seniors stepped up and answered the call from the Advancement department to donate artwork for the silent auction held at IPA’s annual fundraising gala in November. Karenna Meyermann ‘23 and Mya Akaka ‘23 didn't hesitate when they knew that donating their work would support student programs they have benefited from, including the Secondary arts.

Elementary and Secondary students took the opportunity at Island Pacific Academy’s Night Voyage gala on Thursday, November 10, 2022 to share their mahalo with Lance Wilhelm – IPA Trustee Emeritus, alumni parent, and builder of the IPA campus – with hand-crafted gifts for the guests and Wilhelm. Mahalo and kudos to the students, and their teachers, for representing IPA so well to our greater community!
