Two years after one of the deadliest wildfires in U.S. history ravaged Lahaina, Maui students are finding glimmers of hope on the King Kamehameha III Elementary School campus.
CBS Mornings’ Nate Burleson visited the temporary campus, built in 90 days by the Army Corps. of Engineers, and spoke with Unit 3’s Darice Garcia, an educational assistant at the school.
“In the early days, I would hear the kids make comments like, ‘My house is gone,’ ‘My cousin died,’” said Garcia. She sees her role as providing a sense of stability by “being open arms for them, that love and compassion… so they know they can come to a place where people care about them.”
