Residents can expect an influx of emergency response vehicles and Maui police officers on the Kihei Elementary School campus as part of a joint agency preparedness exercise from 7:45 a.m. to 11:45 a.m. Friday.

The Maui Police Department announced it will conduct a one-day Joint Agency Emergency Preparedness Exercise in conjunction with the Department of Education. Only DOE staff will be on campus during the exercise.
