Aloha mai! My name is Hanakahi Perreira. I was born and raised in Hilo and I have been working at Kamehameha for the past 6 years. I previously worked as a Hawaiian Language teacher at both the elementary and middle school divisions, before becoming a teacher at the high school in 2004. Prior to working at Kamehameha, I was a teacher at Ke Kula 'O Nawahiokalani'opu'u, where I taught a number of different classes in the medium of Hawaiian language.
