7/4/2025
After 4 years in this school, it is obvious that, while there are many helpful and caring teachers in the school, the office staff have no regard for the students. Teachers here are well-trained and have helped me immensely through the years. Staff, however, like assistant principals or office personnel, tend not to know what they're doing and leave students in stressful situations they have to solve for themselves.

The experience at hilltop has been nice I've enjoyed making new friends along with being able to join many sports and clubs along with feeling safe with teachers and building trust with staff.

They don't pay much attention to the arts. The program is underfunded and across three direct types of music there is one teacher. He tries his very best but could really use more school support. Emerald effect is a great band that shouldn't have to be so worried about funds all the time and instead should focus on creativity and passion.

I went to school at Hilltop, and it was one of the most amazing experiences ever. The community is so close and involved, it’s such a great environment for students to feel safe and grow. Students tend to build such great relationships with faculty, and it make the high school experience great!

I went to both Hilltop Middle and High, they are so great. The students are very nice and welcoming. There are little to no bullies going on in this school. The teachers are funny too. And the district provides everything for the school. Love it
