Congratulations to Drew Pustelnik for being named the ROE Staff Member of the Month. Drew’s support with technology within the district is appreciated. He supports staff members with technology issues, and he repairs the devices of our students. Drew has been known to show up at Hillcrest at all hours of the day to ensure our technical systems are up and running for the building. Drew’s job doesn’t stop inside of technology. Mr. Drew will go out of his way to ensure success for our students. His hard work has not gone unnoticed. Thank you for your commitment to Hillcrest, Drew!

We have another Hillcrest Hornet that completed 4th grade Lexia! Congratulations to Alexandra. We are proud of your perseverance and determination.
