Incredibly disappointed with Hillcrest and how they handle the vaping epidemic in the school. They claim they are one of the only Jr Highs with vape sensors in the bathrooms- to help the problem. Yet, they know exactly what kids are vaping and who is selling IN THE SCHOOL- they do nothing about it.They are also failing hard when it comes to test taking grades of the students. The statewide testing for math and English- the students have a 24% passing rate in Hillcrest. We picked Murray District for our kids, because we were under the impression that Murray is fantastic. Hillcrest Jr High is painfully failing in every aspect we have experienced.Do yourself a favor and research the school you pick for your kids. Send them to Riverview if you have to be in Murray. I hope Hillcrest can figure it out and do better for the students they have.

Why did we move to murray knowing Hillcrest Jr. High was being ran the way it is. The front office, vice principal and principal are a joke.

Sometimes it makes me wonder why the current principal is the principal at that school.
