Meet the Principal
From the desk of Principal Hilda Fakhoury

United Christian Academy is more than the school I was chosen to lead—it is a community that has already shaped my family and my life. As both a parent and an educator, I have experienced firsthand what makes UCA so special. Those experiences strengthened my conviction that this is where I wanted to serve. I am here because I believe in the mission, the people, and the future of this school.
My vision is simple: every student who walks through our doors should leave more prepared than when they arrived-academically excellent, spiritually grounded, confident in who they are, and equipped to pursue the purpose God has placed on their lives.
For more than a decade, I have served students in the classroom while also spending over twelve years consulting organizations, developing high-performing teams, and building systems that produce meaningful results. Those experiences have taught me that true education extends far beyond academics. It is about developing character, cultivating leadership, strengthening faith, and preparing young people to thrive in an ever-changing world.
My leadership begins with faith. It shapes how I serve, how I make decisions, and how I care for every student, family, and staff member entrusted to this community. My husband and I have been blessed with 25 years of marriage and three wonderful children. Those experiences have deepened my appreciation for the partnership between school and home and continue to guide how I support our families.
United Christian Academy occupies a unique place in Christian education because it refuses to separate academic excellence from spiritual formation. Here, students are challenged to think critically and live boldly for Christ. Preparing students for college is important, but preparing them for a life of purpose and faithful service is our greater calling.
As principal, I am committed to honoring the strong foundation that has been built while continuing to expand opportunities for every student to discover their God-given gifts. Together with our outstanding faculty, dedicated families, and supportive community, we will continue building a school where excellence is expected, faith is lived, and every student is empowered to flourish.
It is both a privilege and a responsibility to lead United Christian Academy. I am grateful for the trust you have placed in me, and I look forward with great anticipation to all that God has in store for our school. I truly believe our best days are still ahead, and I am honored to walk this journey with you.
Blessings,
