“We are excited to celebrate Pearl City High School’s 50th anniversary. It is a special opportunity for us to remember the sense of community and service created by Chargers that came before us. Our staff — many of them alumni — and students are in- spired by the stories and legacies left to us by Pearl City High School alumni and former staff members. They have been an example of excellence for all of us,” declares princi- pal Joe Halfmann.
his year, Pearl City High School turns 50, marking a major milestone.
“We appreciate, also, how the Pearl City community and alumni are eager to give back to Pearl City High School and help us prepare our students to be leaders in disci- plines across the state. Congratulations to all the Charger alumni, faculty and staff that have served the Pearl City community these 50 years,” Halfmann adds.
