Hillcrest Elementary School
Week of August 15th, 2022
Welcome Back
We have an awesome first seven days of school! Our students are continuing to learn school and classroom rules, procedures, and expectations daily. Please help us to reinforce these things by reviewing with your child at home. We had our first official Fire Drill with students and staff this past Friday. Our students and staff did an awesome job responding in a timely manner. Please see our Weekly Reminders and Important Dates below.
- Please make sure your child is at school daily. We ask that you send a written excuse to the school upon your child's return to school.
- Please arrive before 8:00 a.m. to ensure that your child has time to eat breakfast before classes begin.
- School starts at 8:15 a.m. Your child is mark tardy if they arrive after 8:15 a.m.
- School Dismissal begins at 3:15 p.m.
- Make right turns ONLY when exiting the car rider drop-off/pick-up line.
- Please allow our staff to enter the parking lot in the mornings by keeping the car rider lane open at the entrance near the playground.
- Car Rider Parents: To help ensure the safety of loading and unloading our precious cargo (students), please place your car in the Park position while students are entering/exiting the vehicle.
- All students in grades Kindergarten - 4th should have clear or mesh book bags.
- Refer to the copy of the Dress Code Policy that was included in your beginning of the year packet, as well as on our school website, to make sure your child is dress appropriately. This policy refers to students in grades K-4.
- Friday's Celebration: All students and staff will be transported off campus Friday to attend the 1,000th Game Day Celebration Parade. All students will need to be present at school by 8:00 a.m. to ensure we have safe transitions with our students and staff.
