M. K. Hirokawa M.Ed.

Micah Hirokawa, former Head of School and Charter Director, is currently serving as an administrator at Syracuse Arts Academy. Hirokawa is well-published and has been a featured presenter throughout the nation. As an ethnomusicologist, his undergraduate work was featured in a film produced by the American Studies Department, University of Hawaii titled, Mele - The Voices of Yesterday Singing The Songs of Tomorrow. As a young child, Micah was diagnosed with ADHD and Dyslexia. Through his passion for music, he’s been able to redefine his disability as his now-found “Super Ability.” In light of this, Micah has developed through self-study and groundbreaking research (Wide River Academy), methods and strategies that have inspired a revolution. His mission as an educator is to crush labels and stereotypes when working with students of concern. Hirokawa hopes to create a paradigm shift that promotes in-depth learning for all students. He has been featured on such platforms as TEDxHonoluluEd, Schools of the Future, The MISO Conference, The SUMMIT Education, and Innovation Conference, The Pacific Rim Conference, The LDAH Conference, The UMC Conference, to name a few – and was the only educator in Hawaii to become a finalist for the 2014 GRAMMY Educator Award and the recipient of the Rock Your School GRAMMY Competition in 2015.
