Students were able to make a quick adjustment during recess when it started pouring and came in and followed their ROARS during indoor recess!!




We are so lucky to have the Alma Fire Department come to Hillcrest today to talk to our 2nd graders about fire prevention!

We are thankful for our Literacy Coach, Michele Ringle, to help support our instructional paras with our new ELA program, Bookworms.

During our DI (Differentiated Instruction) Block for Bookworms, students rotate through different stations and receive instruction at their level.
