Prince Jonah Kūhiō Kalanianaʻole Elementary in Papa‘ikou is reopening Wednesday, Oct. 21, for students and staff after an unexpected water outage forced the campus to close Tuesday, Oct. 20.

The Hawai‘i Department of Education worked with utility and facilities crews to restore service as quickly as possible.
