Mrs. Wong's Weekly Update

September 21, 2026

 

Dear Red Hawk Families

On Thursday evening, Hidden Trails was recognized, along with all CVUSD schools, for achieving Diamond-Level implementation of the Chino Valley Tiered Systems of Support (CVTSS). Mrs. Wong-Chan and Mrs. Allaf proudly accepted the award on behalf of our school at the CVUSD Board Meeting. This recognition reflects the collective commitment, collaboration, and dedication of our staff in supporting the academic, behavioral, and social-emotional success of every student. Thank you for the incredible work you do each day to make Hidden Trails an exceptional place for learning and growth. We are proud to be Hawks!

Upcoming Events

Parent-Teacher Conferences
It is that time of year for Teacher-Parent Conferences! Our teachers look forward to meeting with you to discuss your child’s progress and celebrate their growth and achievements.
As a reminder, we will have minimum days from September 28 through October 2, with dismissal at 11:20 a.m. each day. Kindergarten students will be dismissed at 11:10 a.m., and PM students will attend during the morning session all week, following their regular Wednesday schedule.
Please be sure to schedule a conference with your child’s teacher if you have not already done so. Parent-Teacher Conferences provide an important opportunity to discuss your child's academic progress, strengths, areas for growth, and learning goals. We value your partnership and look forward to working together to support your child's success. Thank you for your continued support!

Title 1 Parent Meeting/ Coffee with Principal
We are hosting our Title I Parent Meeting on October 2, 2026, at 8:15 a.m. This meeting will be held in person and we encourage all families to attend to learn more about our school goals, academic programs, budget, and how Title I funding supports student achievement and student success.

Following the Title I Parent Meeting, we invite you to join us for Coffee with the Principal. This will be a great opportunity to connect with school administration, learn about upcoming events and initiatives, ask questions, and discuss ways we can continue working together to support the success of all students. We look forward to partnering with you and hearing your ideas and feedback.

Important Reminders

Pick Up/Dismissal Reminders:

For the safety of all students, please do not park, drop off, or pick up students in any red curb area, especially in front of the MPR. There is no breakfast drop-off or pick-up permitted in front of the MPR. Students should only be dropped off and picked up at the designated yellow curb areas.

These procedures are in place to ensure the safety of our students, staff, and families. When everyone follows our traffic expectations, we can provide a safer arrival and dismissal experience for all. Unfortunately, there have been traffic accidents in the past, and we want to do everything possible to prevent such incidents from occurring again.
Our traffic expectations are outlined in the Parent Handbook (under "Traffic Safety") and have been shared multiple times through ParentSquare. We respectfully ask all families to follow these guidelines at all times to help keep our students safe, even when traffic supervisors are not present.
Thank you for your cooperation and commitment to maintaining a safe school environment for everyone

ATTEND TODAY, ACHIEVE TOMORROW

Student attendance will remain a focus at Hidden Trails this year. Regular attendance supports academic success and helps students build strong habits for the future.

Please make every effort to schedule absences only when necessary. When students miss school, they miss valuable instruction that can be difficult to make up. Students at risk of chronic absenteeism may be required to meet with Mrs. Wong or Mrs. Allaf and develop an attendance improvement plan.

Congratulations to our 3rd Grade students for achieving the highest attendance rate (98.90%) during the week of September 14-18! Thank you to our students, families, and teachers for their commitment to being present and engaged in learning every day. Keep up the outstanding work!
Red Hawk Online

Positive Behavior Intervention and Supports (PBIS)

Our Red Hawk Online PBIS Store is now open! Be on the lookout for exciting new prizes that your child may bring home as a reward for demonstrating positive behavior at school. We are proud to celebrate and recognize our students for making great choices every day!

We would like to recognize and celebrate our students' positive behavior through our PBIS Reward Program. Students earn PBIS reward points, which they can redeem for prizes through our Red Hawk Online Store.
If you would like to support this program, we welcome donations of small toys, trinkets, or individually wrapped candy. Please drop off donations at the school office and label them "PBIS." Thank you for your support of our Red Hawks!

Project Wisdom

This year, we will focus on one Wise Choice each month. We encourage families to help reinforce these important character traits at home so that we can work together as a team to support our students' growth.

September Wise Choice: Choose to do and be your personal best. 
I choose to do my very best each day. When I am willing to do my personal best,
I win self-respect and self-esteem.
