Welcome Back to School!

Aloha Haumana!
So great to have you back in school filling my classroom with energy! I love it! As we start this new journey, let us remember to work together, help each other, and especially learn from one another. Remember Life is Good and we are indeed blessed especially here at Kamehameha. Looking forward to getting to know all of you better! Here’s an interesting fact about me … I love to travel and have been to many different countries around the world.  One place I’d like to visit is Manchu Picchu. For a small treat, turn into my mailbox (on my desk) the name of the country Manchu Picchu is in. Have fun!
Aloha,
Kumu Aiwohi 🙂
