The impact of Lahainaluna High Schoolʻs boarding program as Althea describes it, was immense and greatly influenced her lifeʻs path. Throughout the interview, Althea details the enduring memories she has gained during her time at the school, specifically highlighting the sense of pride and hardwork that was instilled within her by the program, gaining lifelong friends along the way. Within her years at Lahainaluna, she worked at the cafe, garden, and other jobs. Some of her greatest takeaways were her roles within FFA, the Student Body President, and dorm officers She eventually went on to graduate from UH Hilo, returning to Lahainaluna to recruit, teach and head the FFA program, then moving away to continue teaching.
