Good Morning Hillcrest Community,
Now, that we have rolled into Daylight Savings Time, it will take a few days for the children to adjust. Keeping routines and schedules will help transition the students. Please be prepared for some rainy days this week. All of our Garvey Schools will be participating in the district-wide Lock Down drill tomorrow March 14th. Last, we invite you to join us on Friday March 17 for our Math Parent Workshop @ 9am.
