Hillcrest Family Newsletter
February 14th, 2020
Thank you!
Thank you to all of the families who donated materials to support all of the design briefs. What started as a wild idea from Flight Academy students came to life for all of our Hillcrest learners today. Your donations made this day affordable and possible.
Thank you to our PTO for working Science and Engineering Day into their budget for this year. We were able to feed ALL of the Flight Academy students as a thank you for all of their hard work and planning. The pizza was very appreciated!
Yearbook Group Photos
Mortenson Photography will be at Hillcrest the morning of Thursday, February 20th to take candid and group photos for the yearbook. Any student who has participated in a Hillcrest group, including scouts, will have their group photo taken for the yearbook. If you would like your child to wear anything specific for this photo (for example, scout uniform or spirit wear) please have them wear it to school this day.
If your child did not have a yearbook photo taken earlier in the school year, they will also have their photo taken this day so they can be in the yearbook.
Yearbook orders will be sent home sometime in March.
Attention: 2nd and 3rd Grade Concert
