Word of the Week: AROMATIC

Dear Hillcrest Community,

Thank you to all of our amazing Volunteers who came to Hillcrest last week and read to our students for Read Across America Day! The students loved it. March 8 is International Women's Day! We hope you will take a few minutes to thank a woman who has made a difference in your life. This year's theme is Celebrating the Women Who Tell Our Stories. As part of our AVID College readiness goals, we will be featuring colleges and universities each week to help you start thinking about your child's future.
