Aloha Pukalani Stallions! My name is Ms. Souza and I am another counselor here at Pukalani Elementary School. I was born and raised here on Maui and went to Oahu for my schooling, and now I am finally back home. After working in the DOE for about 10 years, I am so excited to be a part of an awesome school community and I can't wait for us to be able to see each other back on campus when it is safer!
