The Husky Howler

Week of. January 16, 2023. Issue 20

Word of the Week: ACCOMPLISH

Dear Hillcrest Community,

On Monday Jan 16th, hundreds of Californians participated in a Day of Service, attended Kingdom Day Parades, and took the time to honor the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. We hope Huskies of all ages reflected on how we each can make a difference in the world and that we need to be proactive in modeling and practicing kindness each day. This month all students will be reviewing Positive Behavior Expectations and setting personal goals.
