Ms. Bertrand is excited to be returning to the Hilldale School community as the Fourth Grade teacher. She taught Grades 1-3 at Urban Montessori Charter School. She is a 5th generation Bay Area native and has been involved with working with children for over 15 years. She loves teaching and also loves to learn something new as well as revisit many existing interests. Some of those interests include gardening, puzzling tabletop games, kayaking, hiking, camping, music, and making art. She also loves her pet cat, Dragon, and her leopard gecko, Storm, the Fourth Grade class pet!
