I went here as a child and always felt safe. The staff was always loving and caring. I was given the opportunity to help out and loved it. I was always happy. Lots of the teachers who were there when I was are still there. It is the best school I went to until I got to my current university. Truly, it was simply the best as the song said.

Genuine family feel in this school! Students are loved and taught kindness and respect every day. This school is a diamond in the rough in Troup County. Great administration, amazing teachers and the best art and p.e. teachers in Lagrange.

It took us moving to a school rated a 9 on this website to truly realize what an incredible school Hillcrest is!! No, they may not have a lot of after school organizations or clubs, but their teaching methods, parent communication, warmth, and emphasis on good citizenship more than makes up for it!! Their after school program feels the same as the school and both are focused on providing a well rounded educational experience! Test scores may not be as high as other schools because they realize that testing is not a needed skill as an adult, but a love for learning and experiencing new things never goes away if nurtured.

This school is very, very good. The teachers are very nice and tolerant. We something called the hillcrest way. It includes honesty, self-control, no bullying, respect, and responsibility. I'd love to come back if I could. They do not tolerate bullying in this school. The counselor here is great and solves most of the problems the students have.Hillcrest also has a wonderful ACE program. It never feels like a prison in this school. If you're wondering were to go for your child at elementary school, chose this school. Hillcrest also has many clubs. If you send your child here, I know he will love it here!
