I have 2 children enrolled at Hillcrest. All teachers have been wonderful and easy to communicate with. I feel they are challenged academically and given the appropriate amount of work for their age. The PTA is also great and plans many fun activities.

6/3/2022
Beware! If you have a child who doesn’t fit the mold, they’ll tell you that your kid needs to go another school - no support for ‘different’ kids here. It’s sad, frustrating and very disappointing.
