Principal

Dear Red Hawk Families, 

I am honored to serve as the principal of Hidden Trails Elementary School. At Hidden Trails, we deeply value family involvement and encourage your questions, participation, and engagement in all aspects of school life. Education has always been my passion, and I began my career as a Montessori teacher, where I witnessed firsthand the profound impact early learning experiences have on children's growth and development.

Over the past 15 years, I have had the privilege of serving in a variety of educational roles, including Montessori teacher, elementary and secondary classroom teacher, dual language specialist, and assistant principal. Each of these experiences has provided me with valuable opportunities to understand and support students from different perspectives, helping me develop a strong commitment to meeting the diverse needs of every learner.

I firmly believe that every child is unique, with individual talents, strengths, and unlimited potential. I am committed to ensuring that all students have access to a safe, supportive, and engaging learning environment where they can learn, grow, and succeed. Our goal is to inspire students to become confident learners who are prepared to meet challenges and achieve their personal best.

As a school community, we are fortunate to have a dedicated and highly skilled staff who work diligently each day to create meaningful learning experiences. Together, we strive to provide a supportive, challenging, and engaging environment where every student can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.

Please know that your child's learning and best interests are at the heart of my purpose and work as principal. We cannot do this important work without the support, partnership, and involvement of our families. By working together, we can create the best possible educational experience for every student. Let's make this school year a great one—filled with learning, growth, fun, and success—together!

If you have any questions or need assistance, please do not hesitate to contact our office at (909) 597-0288. We are here to support you and look forward to serving you and your family.

Warm regards,

Kennis Wong-Chan
Principal
