Yesterday Hillcrest Elementary School kicked off our partnership with John Deere. This is a BIG deal and so EXCITING! John Deere is coming alongside the students and staff at Hillcrest Elementary School to provide experiences and support us alongside our educational journey. Next week, John Deere will be supporting our students on our ST Math Journey as we accomplish 12,500 ST Math minutes as a school family. When our students meet this goal, John Deere has surprises in store for our students. Families, get ready to participate next week....and if you see a John Deere worker, thank them for the work they are doing for your student!





Mrs. Richardson’s 2nd Grade students are fully engaged in creating codes during science today.




Parent Teacher Conferences are this Thursday evening and Friday morning. Glenview parents will schedule online; elementary/ELC parents, please contact your student's teacher for a conference time.


More information on how to participate in Math Week will be sent home with your students and in an email to parents.
