| Ashley Oyama, candidate for state House of Representatives was named West Hawai'i Teacher of the year when serving at Konawaena High School |
"Iʻve lived in District 5 since I was four years old and am blessed to raise my family here. As the 2021 West Hawaii Teacher of the Year, Iʻve seen the need for change within the public school system. I will work for accountability, transparency, and fairness for students and families within the school system. I stand for parental rights and believe that students and families deserve to be a part of educational decisions that impact them.
"I envision communities where families are respected and supported when it comes to their decisions on education and parental rights, food sustainability, and community and land preservation. I believe that proper maintenance of public roadways and community infrastructures have been overlooked and needs immediate attention. We need to take care of the families who are fighting to keep Hawaiʻi as their home. We need to invest in our people now so that there is a future to look forward to."
