Our Character Education program at Hidden Hills helps our students in many ways.  We believe that in order to help a student strive to be their very best academically we should help them learn to be good citizens, feel good about themselves and understand how to be positive role models.

Our principal, teachers and other staff members work together to educate each and every student on these traits that will play an important role in their future and in becoming well rounded individuals.  Each month, the principal reads a book to several classrooms pertaining to that month’s trait.  The students have an opportunity to discuss the book and have open discussion with the principal, teacher and other students in the class.  They are then encouraged by the principal to share their knowledge with other students on campus.  Our traits are placed on the television monitors in each classroom as a reminder to every student.

At the end of each month,  the classroom teachers choose up to 3 students to recognize who have exhibited the qualities of that month’s trait.  These students receive an award and are asked to participate in video announcements with the principal.

The monthly character education traits are as follows:
