About Our Principal

Welcome to Hartford Sylvia Encinas Elementary School, home of the Huskies! I am a native of Iowa and obtained my undergraduate degree from Iowa State University. Go Cyclones!  While in college, I had the opportunity to study in Cuernavaca, Mexico. After college, I was a bilingual teacher in inner-city Houston.  I started teaching kindergarten and worked my way up to second grade.  My husband and I relocated to Arizona during the summer of 1998.  Once in Arizona, I taught at San Marcos elementary for four years and then moved to an instructional specialist position within the district.  My administrative career began at Santan Elementary in 2004.  I was an Assistant Principal for one year, and the Principal for seven years. Most recently, I joined the Hartford Sylvia Encinas Elementary School at the beginning of the 2011-2012 school year.  I am very excited to be a part of the community, and look forward to getting to know each and every one of you!
 

In addition to my undergraduate degree, I have two Masters degrees. One degree is in Curriculum and Instruction and the other is in Educational Leadership. I also hold an administrative certificate. 

 

I live in Chandler with my husband, son, father and two dogs.  My son, Sam, is a product of Chandler Schools.  In my free time, I love spending time with my family, reading, traveling and participating in fun runs. 

 

As stated earlier, I am very proud to be your principal. I believe that relationships are crucial to the success of our students. The Hartford Sylvia Encinas staff is top-notch and does an outstanding job of maximizing instructional time.  I have an open-door policy and encourage your input. 

 

 

Respectfully,

 

Heather L. Anguiano
