Message from Principal

Welcome to Hillcrest Elementary School!

We are committed to providing a safe, inclusive and supportive learning
environment for all our Hillcrest students. We encourage our students to find
and develop their strengths and abilities everyday with engaging classroom
instruction and teacher support. Our staff is dedicated to academic growth
and overall social emotional wellbeing. This aligns with our goals for this year
to increase daily attendance and growth in the areas of reading and math
skills for each grade level. Together, we can do this! 

We are a community school and believe in forming and building strong
partnerships with our families. Our support services teams are here to help
with the essentials such as attendance, coordinating services, translations,
navigating ParentVue, and referrals to available resources. In addition, we
have monthly family events and workshops to provide our parents/guardians
with important information and tools to help their students at home.

Please know that your support this year has been essential to the growth of
our school. We encourage you to continue being active participants in your
child's education. Hillcrest Elementary has opportunities for
parents/guardians to volunteer, join the PTA, apply for positions or
membership within our English Language Learners Advisory Committee
(ELAC) and School Site Council (SSC) and so much more. We know that
working together is always better for our students and community.

We look forward to working with you and wish you all a successful and
enriching school year!
