Distance and E-Learning

  •    

    Hillcrest is providing Instructional Packets that are available for parent pick-up curb-side at Hillcrest School Tuesday, March 31st  from 3-5 pm.  Hillcrest families you will hear from Teachers to assist you during this distance learning process.  We will not be collecting any completed work, but rather we will have phone contact with the families to assist us in the grading process. Should you need any assistance please don’t hesitate to email your Classroom Teacher, Therapist or Behavior Specialist. 

    Thank you and stay well.
