In an effort to keep improving the flow of traffic across our district, beginning Monday, August 12th students at Hill City Elementary School may be dropped off as early as 7:00 a.m. Students must be walked in and signed in. We will continue to have staff on duty at the front curb for car rider drop off beginning at 7:20 a.m. Thank you for your continued support and patience.
Congratulations, Mrs. Mosley! The Hawk was passed to her! Mrs. Georgia and Mr. Billy wanted to recognize her outstanding talent of making students feel welcome in her classroom. "She meets students where they are, and always makes sure they have what they need," explained Mrs. Georgia.
Hill City Elementary is now a Leader in Me school! Using Mr. Covey's 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, we are beginning a 3-year program rollout to empower our students, families, and school community to embrace ownership in their educational and life journey.
Mrs. Moss’s 3rd-grade students participated in their first Leader In Me lesson. Habit #1 is to be “Be Proactive." Students practiced being proactive by greeting and interacting with others. Greeting others shows leadership. Greetings can also look different depending on how well you know someone.
Please join us for your child's grade level Curriculum Night. Each night we'll meet in the gym at 6:00 p.m. to share this year's curriculum and year-end academic goals. We hope to see you there!
Morning Car Rider Drop Off Update: All elementary schools and the middle school will begin unloading cars at 7:20 a.m. tomorrow. We hope this will help ease some of the traffic congestion and better serve our families. Thank you for your continued patience.
