Radio Script for Maui TV News on KAOI Radio - June 14, 2010

FROM THE VISIONARY RADIO NEWS CENTER, I'M JEFF KING WITH MAUI TV NEWS.

HAWAII HAS BEEN THE ONLY STATE IN THE NATION THAT DOESN'T HAVE A MINIMUM AMOUNT OF CLASSROOM TIME MANDATED BY LAW. TODAY, THAT FINALLY CHANGED. THIS YEAR - THANKS TO FURLOUGH FRIDAYS, HAWAII HAD THE FEWEST INSTRUCTIONAL DAYS IN THE NATION. AND HAWAII HAS THE SHORTEST SCHOOL DAY IN AMERICA - FOUR HOURS AND 43 MINUTES. THERE WILL BE 178 SCHOOL DAYS IN THE UPCOMING SCHOOL YEAR IN HAWAII AND 180 DAYS A YEAR THEREAFTER.

AND A COUPLE OF EXTREMELY TALENTED MAUI STUDENTS ARE KEEPING A STREAK ALIVE. THE MAUI HIGH SCHOOL AUTOMOTIVE TEAM TOOK NINTH PLACE IN THE 2010 FORD-TRIPLE-A AUTO SKILLS NATIONAL FINAL. LEWIS DRAPETE AND BRYSON HIGA BRING HOME TROPHIES, HATS AND -OH - 23,000 DOLLARS FOR THEIR EFFORTS. THE MHS TEAM WON THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP IN 1995 AND IN 2000.

ISLAND WEATHER TONIGHT, PARTLY CLOUDY WITH SCATTERED RAIN SHOWERS AND LOWS IN THE UPPER 60S. TOMORROW, MOSTLY SUNNY WITH ISOLATED SHOWERS HIGHS IN THE UPPER 80S.
