Salina Aybar

Salina Aybar

School Director

Hi KLA HW families! I’m Salina Aybar, and I have been married to my husband Cesar for almost 24 years and have two children Sebastian 17 and Celeste 13. I have been in the field of Early Childhood Education for more than 23 years, 21 years of which have been in leadership and management.

Having the opportunity to watch children learn and grow is one of the best parts of my job. I believe that building a strong foundation in a child's early years is the key to success in their future education later in life. The key to being an effective school leader is building relationships with teachers, students, and their families. I want to work with children to continue building these relationships, to see students grow and provide a positive role model in their lives. Relationships are at the very heart of the Reggio Emilia philosophy. It is the child’s relationship with parent, teacher, and environment that ignites learning.

Hi KLA families, my name is Tianya Sun, but everyone calls me Tiantian. I am originally from China, and I moved to the United States when I was 15 years old. I have been married to my husband Max for nine years and we have a beautiful daughter Eleanor who is five.

I have been in Early Childhood Education for four years, two years of which have been in administration and management. I believe that strong relationships are an essential foundation for optimal learning. I am grateful and honored to join the KLA family knowing this is a school that strives for excellence and quality in Early Childhood Education while promoting an atmosphere that allows each child to grow, strive, and develop the necessary skills to reach their highest potential.
