Principal's Message

Aloha Princess Nāhiʻenaʻena Elementary School Families,

It is with immense gratitude and excitement that I introduce myself as your new principal. I am deeply honored to return to this incredible campus and to serve our students.

For 22 years, I've dedicated my career to education within the DOE, as a teacher, district leader, and administrator.  My core belief is that school should be a vibrant and safe haven where both students and teachers flourish. Having served as the Temporary Principal of Kamehameha III Elementary School since the wildfire, and as your Vice Principal here at Nāhiʻenaʻena for the preceding six years, and as a Lahaina educator for 11 years, my connection to this place runs deep.  I am committed to our shared future and the resilience of our students.

Especially in the face of recent challenges, I want to assure you that I am fully invested in our school and our community.  My door is always open, and I believe in the power of open communication.  Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions or stop by the office for a visit. You can contact me at ian.haskins@k12.hi.us or by phone at (808) 727-6200.

Let's work together to create a bright and successful future for every student at Princess Nahienaena Elementary School.  I look forward to partnering with you.

Mahalo,

Ian Haskins
