Schools receiving awards are asked to produce original educational videos that focus on themes including arts education, digital tools in the classroom, Hawaiian lifestyles, and safety and well-being. Grants can be used for the purchase of video equipment, supplies and software. Applications are due Aug. 31, 2017 and will be reviewed in September by a committee.
