🗣️Happy School Principals’ Day, Mr. Akiona! 👏 💙Thank you for being the heart of our school & the steady engine behind every success we celebrate. Your leadership is marked by compassion, vision, & an unshakable belief in what’s possible when students & staff feel seen, supported, and inspired. ❤️Heroes don’t always wear capes—sometimes they hold megaphones in the car line, greet every student by name, and lead with a quiet strength centered on service. You are that kind of hero for our school, lifting others with your presence and empowering ALL Raiders to rise! 🦸🏻‍♂️ 👉🏼Because of you, it’s always a great day to be a Raider. 💯 📲SWIPE to the end to see Mr. Akiona like you’ve never seen him before—as a comic book SUPERHERO!🦸🏻‍♂️
