Join us at Buffalo Luke's for Spirit Day today! Be sure to mention your child's grade level, as there's a prize for the students' grade with the most visitors from Hill City. Enjoy a delicious meal and support our Hawks!
Welcome to Hawks Read One Book!
We’re excited to begin "The One and Only Ruby" with Mystery Reader #1 today! If you’d like to follow along, the link has been shared with families through Infinite Campus.
⭐ One special note: Our kindergarten and PreK students did not receive a copy of the novel today. Unfortunately, our final shipment of books has been delayed due to shipping supply chain issues. We’re hopeful they will arrive soon.
Thank you so much for your patience and understanding—we can’t wait to have everyone reading along together!

And the next Hawk Award honoree is... Ms.Jamie!
Mrs. Gilleland shared, "I am passing the Hawk to Ms Jamie. As a teacher new to Hill City, Ms Jamie is always supporting me. Whether it's helping me find books (and then delivering them to my room) or answering my endless questions, Ms Jamie is always willing to help me with a smile on her face. Her kind spirit makes every day better. " Congratulations, Ms. Jamie!

Hello Hill City families!
We are excited to share our first-ever Hawks Read One Book program!
On Monday, every Hill City family will receive a copy of the novel "The One and Only Ruby" by Katherine Applegate. If you have multiple children at Hill City, the book will go home with your oldest sibling—and it’s yours to keep! A flyer and pacing guide will be included.
Families are welcome to read independently, but we’ll also have daily Mystery Readers sharing recordings of the designated pages—just like an audiobook! The audio links will be shared through Infinite Campus.
Students are encouraged to participate in daily trivia questions based on the previous night’s reading. (There will be PRIZES!) We’ll finish the novel just in time to celebrate Read Across America on Friday, March 6th!
We can’t wait to read with you!

In Mrs. Everett’s PreK class, students sampled two different types of cookies and then graphed the results!
They counted how many friends liked each cookie, figured out which one was liked the most, and which was liked the least.
Now that’s some sweet math!

Good foggy morning from the Hill! 🌫️

Mrs. Culbreth’s 3rd grade class had a blast creating edible replicas of sedimentary rocks! This hands-on activity helped students see how these rocks are formed—one tasty layer at a time!
According to Mrs. Anderson, “If you give students pancakes, they will eat them!”
