It is 2nd grade's turn to enjoy a field trip to Forest Hill! Look at all the neat things they were able to do!!
Everyone loves Book Fair Week at Hillcrest! Every student gets at least one book thanks to PTO!!
Bookworms does a great job of covering Science and Social Studies with pictures and interesting information!
November is Homeless Awareness Month and here at Hillcrest, we want to help bring awareness of homelessness and housing insecurity in our communities. That’s why we’re partnering with United Way to raise money for Gratiot County Hope House through a coin war challenge called “Coins for a Cause”!
United Way is committed to matching all funds raised (up to $10,000) so now’s your chance to double your donation! Students can bring in their spare change during November. The classroom that raises the most money will win a pizza party from United Way!
Another great learning week is in the books! Bring on November! Hillcrest All-Star Happenings-November 3

As our 2nd graders are learning about the community, they had a Career Day today where six community members came in and talked to the students about their profession! Students were able to pick which ones they went to! What a great experience!!Thanks to the community members!!
First graders celebrated 50's day today for our 50th day of school!! Many of the students dressed up as well and they loved the activities with the number 50!
Watch the video of XC Send Off to States! Best of luck....

I think the staff had more fun dressing up then the students!! We had multiple groups costumes! The 3rd grade team had great costumes but didn't get a group picture.
What a great activity in Health and Wellness on a busy day! Students need to let that energy out and in a healthy way!

Hillcrest All-Star Happenings-October 27th

Not only does Hillcrest have All-Stars, but Alma High School does as well! This week, both the Boys Cross Country Team and the Soccer Team won Regional Championships! Both teams have set multiple school records this year as well!
Almost every single one of the boys on these teams attended Hillcrest when they were younger! How cool is that!
Which of our current All-Stars will grow up to break these records!?!?!
