This year's team is comprised of 107 students. 14 of our students are boarders from Moloka`i, Kaua`i, and Hawai`i. 52 students come from our Kamehameha Elementary School and the other 55 students are new invitees. We have 50 boys and 57 girls on our team.

The Pü`ulu Lehua homeroom advisors include Mrs. Akau, Mrs. DeCastro, Ms. G. Murakami, Ms. Rosehill, Mrs. L. Murakami, Mr. Hudgens, and Ms. Lee.
