Aloha! My name is Desirae Salomon-Kapuras. I was born and raised on the island of Hawai'i. Studying at a college in a place that snowed has always been my childhood dream, so when I graduated high school, I moved to Colorado to attend the University of Northern Colorado. After graduating, I became a bilingual teacher for 7 years in Longmont and Commerce City. I also taught ELL inclusion in Hawaii, on the island of Maui for 8 years. I decided to move back to Greeley and have enjoyed working here at Scott Elementary. I hope to continue my profession here and grow as an educator in this community. I enjoy traveling, exploring and observing nature, a good laugh, and trying new foods.
