Welcoming Ms. Beth Magiera as the New Principal of Hidden Creek Elementary

We are thrilled to announce the hiring of Ms. Beth Magiera as the new principal of Hidden Creek Elementary. Ms. Magiera brings a passion for education, a wealth of leadership experience, and a deep commitment to fostering a positive and inclusive school environment.

Her journey in educational leadership began with an administrative internship in the Bremerton School District, where she gained valuable skills in school operations and community engagement. For the past three years, Ms. Magiera has served as the assistant principal at Orchard Heights Elementary School, where she played a key role in supporting students, staff, and families. Her leadership focused on improving attendance and behavior, promoting a culture of success and well-being for all students.

Beyond her professional achievements, Ms. Magiera is a proud mother of six daughters and understands the importance of creating a welcoming environment for students and their families. Her passion for athletics has shaped her belief in the values of teamwork, perseverance, and dedication — qualities she is excited to bring to the Hidden Creek community. Beginning July 1, Ms. Magiera will transition to Hidden Creek when Principal Brenda Ward retires.

“I am honored to serve as the new principal at Hidden Creek,” Ms. Magiera shared. “I look forward to building strong partnerships with students, families, and the greater school community to make a lasting impact on education in South Kitsap.”
