Principal's Message

Welcome to Maple Hill, the Home of the HAWKS!
 
I am pleased to introduce myself as the Principal at Maple Hill Elementary School. Maple Hill is an incredible place for all who walk through its doors. The staff at Maple Hill takes pride in their work and strives daily to make Maple Hill a special place to come to. We have innovative teachers and dedicated staff members committed to providing students with opportunities to cultivate their kind hearts, strong minds, brave spirits, and Hawk Pride. 
 
Our Mission Statement says it all. “At Maple Hill, our mission is to establish a school environment where every student can receive a stellar education — one that meets their individual needs in a safe and loving environment where their hearts are ignited, their spirits are encouraged, and their minds are challenged. We strive to ensure that all students who walk through the Maple Hill doors are given the tools, skills, and support to discover their true self-worth, make the impossible possible, and are inspired to make the world a better place.”
 
Maple Hill Elementary is the recipient of the 2016 Gold Ribbon School Award and has been recognized as a California Distinguished School two times. We take pride in the balance between academic rigor and character development. Maple Hill also has been a PBIS (Positive Behavioral Interventions & Supports) school since 2014. Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (PBIS) is a proactive approach to establishing the behavioral supports and social culture needed for all students to achieve social, emotional, and academic success. In 2021-2023, Maple Hill received the “Platinum” Award for promoting positive behavior intervention support with our students and showing that we have tiered level support for our students both academically and behaviorally. This award is a great honor and a testament to all the great things happening at Maple Hill. 
 
As the Interim Principal, I believe it is essential that everyone who steps through our doors—students, teachers, and family members alike—is excited to be here and feels like they belong! This attitude enables us to meet the challenges of academic excellence in a positive, fun, and nurturing environment.
 
I look forward to a fantastic year. If I can assist, please email me at [email protected] or call the front office at (909) 861-6224. 
 
Kind Regards, 
Ms. Kimberly McNeil
Principal

Welcome Back to the 25-26 School Year

Dear Maple Hill Families,
We are excited to begin a new journey with your children starting Monday, August 11th. It’s going to be a fantastic year of learning, growth, and connection at Maple Hill Elementary!

As a reminder, school gates will open at 7:45 a.m., and the tardy bell rings promptly at 8:10 a.m. On the first day of school, families are welcome to accompany their students to the line-up areas to meet the teacher. Beginning Tuesday, August 12th, all students will say goodbye at the gate as they begin their day independently.

You may notice ongoing construction on our campus. We are thrilled to share that by late November, Maple Hill will gain a much-needed new staff parking lot and four additional classrooms. As the smallest school on the Diamond Bar side of the school district, these new classrooms will support our growing enrollment and help ensure neighborhood students have the opportunity to attend Maple Hill.

We are grateful to the Walnut Valley Unified School District for funding these important improvements through its own Capital Facilities Fund. These projects are not funded through a voter approved tax measure. This investment demonstrates the District’s continued commitment to providing high-quality learning environments for all students.

We look forward to a year filled with exciting changes and new discoveries as we explore how “Maple Hill is Out of This World!”
Kindly,
Ms. McNeil
Principal at Maple Hill
