You Belong Here
We feel strongly that when we say "YOU belong here", we mean it, and we will work to ensure that everyone feels that sense of belonging.
But, hate does not belong here. Not in our schools, not in our community and not in our world.
Building Summer Updates
Before and After School Reminders
-Please do not drop students off before 8:30AM. Students should stay with their parents in their vehicles until the bell rings at 8:30. We do not have playground supervision before this time and we have many students waiting by the door before the bell rings.
-After school life hack - the quickest and easiest way to pick up your students after school is to park in the lot and walk to pick up your child. The drop off area should be used for when students are already waiting at the sidewalk. Parents should not leave their cars at the drop off area. If you park and walk, the lot eventually empties out a couple times before all students have left school grounds.
-Our playground is used by the Park and Rec program for after school paid supervision. Beginning at 3:50, you must be with your child if they are playing on the playground. We don't have general supervision after school and if your child isn't with the Park and Rec program, they need to be accompanied by an adult.

PTO Shoe Drive
The Hillcrest PTO has partnered with Soles4Souls Non-Profit Organization in order to conduct a shoe drive. This organization has done an excellent job in turning gently used shoes into an opportunity to provide for those who don’t have shoes, both locally and worldwide. Given the dire economic crisis this country and world has faced due to the ongoing health pandemic, resources like shoes are needed now more than ever.
There will be a gray bin by the Main Office to collect beginning March 10th and will be collected back up on April 12th. Please tie gently used shoes together, or place in a plastic bag and sent to school.
Thank you ahead of time for your support, and if you would like to know more about this organization, please feel free to ask me or log on to their website at Soles4Souls.org.
