Hillcrest Family Engagement
August/September 2024
Welcome Back Hillcrest Families!
Hillcrest Elementary School welcomes parents, family members, alumni, and the community to campus! We are dedicated to provide authentic and meaningful school to home partnerships to support our students and families. Meetings, events, and educational experiences are scheduled based on feedback submitted via parent and teacher surveys.
If you are interested in becoming part of our parent & community team, contact
Ms. Yvonne Solis-Hernandez, Family and Community Engagement Specialist at yhernandez2@saisd.net or (210) 228-3340.
I am looking forward to working with you as a team to support your child's academic growth.
