The last two days at Hillcrest created many memories for our students. Thank you to our amazing families, we were able to host our 2nd annual family feast. Thank you also to Youth Hope’s volunteers for setting up our feast! Our students also enjoyed eating their turkey sandwiches in a decorated cafeteria with their friends. From the Hillcrest Family, we wish you a happy Thanksgiving! 🦃🍁🍽
EMSD will have Thanksgiving Break November 27th-29th. School will resume on Monday, December 2nd.
