Hillcrest Elementary School
Week of August 22, 2022
Welcome Back
Happy Sunday!!! Thank you to all that participated in Friday's 1,000th game day celebration! Our students did an awesome job at the parade. I would also like to thank those parents that attended our first Parent Workshop last week to learn about Parent Portal. If you didn't have a chance to come, you can still reach out to our Family Engagement Coordinator, Mrs. Daphne Howard, for assistance. Please see our Weekly Reminders and Important Dates below.
- As we continue to finish with our Beginning of the Year Assessment Screeners, 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 will be marked 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.
Thank you again for your support! We're looking forward to another great week at HES! Please don't hesitate to reach out to us if you have any questions, concerns, or need assistance.
