this school offers a well rounded educational experience. there are teachers that are knowledgeable on their work , who do actually care about the student success. the curriculum is diverse, and has different sources for students to succeed critically and creatively. I've noticed the school is not overbearing for students to still feel comfortable, while maintaining a s safe environment not only for its students, but for, staff, parents, and faculty. There is numerous clubs, teams, and extracurriculars, for students to be involved in .

Hillcrest really isn't a bad school. I graduated in '09 and was an honor student. The problem with the school is the students who care nothing about the school and the parents who back up their child when their child was clearly wrong. I have much respect for the teachers at Hillcrest, not only do t...
