I cannot put into words what an amazing school Hillcrest has been for my children. The office staff, teachers, porters, etc. all play a major roll and really have gone above and beyond. The children have learned so much and have developed tremendously. I believe Hillcrest deserves an A rating.

My son is going into first grade and I couldn’t be more pleased with how much progress he made last year. The teachers and staff have become like family and they truly care about each student being successful and try their best to cater to the student’s individual needs.

I can't say enough good things about Hillcrest. I have 2 daughters at this school. One in first grade, and one in 3rd grade. The 3rd grader is also in the Alpha Program. The school is full of teachers who truly want the best for their students. They care about them, and do their best to meet their needs, while helping them learn, and grow into free thinkers. They have fabulous academics, but they also have fun, and make the classroom enjoyable. My kids love to go to school, and are learning a lot while they are there. I couldn't ask for more.

I am really impressed with the school. The staff and administration go above and beyond to make sure the students get what they need in ways of learning and get them the extra support to be able to achieve their goals. I wouldn't have my children at any other schol.
